See if Your Xiaomi, Poco, Blackshark and Redmi Smartphone Will Get Android 12 - Dignited
For Xiaomi, rolling out the latest Android OS in their MIUI skin has been inconsistent to say the least as most OEMs struggle to get regular updates to their devices. Some Xiaomi smartphones like the Redmi series don’t seem to make it beyond one major update.
We all know not all previously released smartphones get updated to the latest Android OS and the chances of that even happening is even much lower based on how long ago it was released. Even more so if your phone is not as valuable. On average, a flagship does not only get more updates than a mid-range phone released at the same time as it but also quicker. This is because, in line with how recent the flagship is, OEMs including Xiaomi tend to cater for their ‘more valuable’ customers first.
