Redmi Note 14 gets six years of security updates, four major Android updates

17 February 2025
The 5G model gets less, intriguingly.

Anonymous, 17 Feb 2025Who cares, these phones are hot garbage anyway. Unfortunate... moreOnly the redmi note series are ,the poco series on the other hand are absolutely killing it

    Pretty sure, it's because these 4g phones are garbage and are not selling. They want to attract the consumers another way. Otherwise it makes more sense to have more updates for the 5g models as those have powerful processors and able to handle major updates better. And also, they could have publicized this info at launch, if this is what they decided beforehand. They decided it now because they want to sell this garbage somehow.

      And the most expensive model the note 14 pro+ will get 3 years OS updates so it gets lower support than the cheapest model 🤣🤣🤣🤣

        Is this to boost the sales of the 4g phone since 5g will be preferred by many? Not bad .

              Anonymous, 17 Feb 2025Highly doubt they could deliver this. Even of they can, it&... moreWhy not. Chinese programmers are better than Korean and Samsung is more or less provides long support.

                Who cares, these phones are hot garbage anyway. Unfortunately, the days of Xiaomi producing actually good quality phones for low prices are long gone

                      Highly doubt they could deliver this. Even of they can, it'll be unoptimized to the max. They were like "here's the update as promised, goodbye"

                        I'll guess the last RN14 update will have bootloop issues. Miui logo stuck after rebooting like it's predecessors.

                          waiting for "bootloop caused by new OS upgrade" topic in the future...

                            Calling out Samsung not providing updates in time compared to Xiaomi releasing a device with not-the-latest Android OS is pure hypocrisy. Anyways, not buying any Xiaomi phone since I saw my friend's Poco and my cousin's Mi 9T having ads everywhere and system crashing frequently, such problematic brand.

                              The article literally written "which was clearly influenced by Samsung's moves."

                              So, Samsung is officially confirmed as the inspirational market leader in long software support. Great inspiration for many chinese brand.

                                  PureOS, 17 Feb 2025That 3 years of updates for 150€ phone is more than fair.Galaxy A16 - 160EUR, getting 6 updates...I get what you mean, years ago, getting ANY updates on a 150EUR device was amazing, but right now, 3 years is the minimum you could possibly offer to be in the market I feel.
                                  Not going to straight up call them bad for it, but not going to applaud them for it either.

                                    Security updates are the most important anyways.
                                    The OS number change dont change much and wont be threat that app support ends for next 6-7 years and they do them anyways every after like 3-4 months

                                      DarlingYext, 17 Feb 2025Well, let's see if they can even deliver that much. Ho... moreThat 3 years of updates for 150€ phone is more than fair.
