Gino76ph, 21 Jul 2024I appreciate the only way to try is to buy it. But having h... moreYes, the Xiaomi 13T was promised to have 4 years of Android updates and 5 years of security patches. Since it was released last year with Android 13, it should get Android updates until Android 17 and security updates until 2028.

As far as the cameras go, Xiaomi have definitely improved compared to a couple years ago, and the 13T is one of the best camera phones for the price. DxOMark even ranks it higher than older flagships including the iPhone 12/12 Mini, Galaxy S21 Ultra, and Pixel 6a.

In conclusion, yes this phone will still get software updates (up until 2028), and the cameras are fantastic. Just don't expect a flagship-level experience because the 13T is still a midrange phone. It's still an arguably better phone than most of what the competition has to offer even in 2024, especially when you can find it for a good price.

    Mr. Right, 22 Jul 2024Seems like you updated to HyperOS, thus slow network speed.Is it a common problem? I'm waiting to wednesday to unlock my bootloader just to see if downgrading to MIUI 14 solves this problem.

        Furkan , 22 Jul 2024Apple and Samsung software is the best but Xiaomi software ... moreI don't know about any technical aspects but I have been using this phone from last 6 Months almost and i am really happy with this phone and it's performance.

        Software update maybe little slow but it actually doesn't matters for normal users.

        This is a good phone and value for hard earned money.

            I'm probably moving out from this device soon, got an offer to buy the Samsung A55 for 305 USD and I took it... I liked the hardware but between the software and less than stellar battery life I'm kinda fed up with Xiaomi for the time being. Maybe I'll try again with the 14 series.

Did a speedtest and iperf3 on my device with stock MIUI 14.0.9.0, went around 590Mbps on 5Ghz band. Updated to latest HyperOS 1.0.9.0 and now Wi-Fi is having problems again, won't go higher than 100Mbps in Speedtest or iperf3. This problem is BS.

                Right now i'm turning my eyes on a Xiaomi 13T instead as it is just £350 right now. If it stays that way till payday I may be to get it.
                But you see even if the 13T is on Android 14 and a May 2024 security will it continue to get quality of life updates? That's the big question.

                  Anonymous, 21 Jul 2024No, Motorola has very bad update policy, almost non-existen... moreThe Moto G84 is my first Motorola in years. It punches above it's weight to be honest. If the G85 had flat screen I would have bought that instead. The Moto is currently on Android 14 and on May security update. If I get the Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G what Android OS version and security month is it on right now?
                  You see even if the Redmi is on Android 14 and a May 2024 security will it continue to get quality of life updates? So, the question goes back: Motorola or Xiaomi in terms of updates as mentioned above?

Go ahead and buy one and just see for yourself whether you like using it or not, it's the only way to truly judge. If you end up disliking it, then you can go ahead and sell it, because I truly have no other recommendations besides this one in terms of camera quality and performance. Maybe the Pixel 7a, but that's an older phone, it's also more expensive, only has 128GB of storage, and it may not be available where you live.

                      That's all, I won't return to this forum anytime soon. Sorry, but I've got my own business to worry about besides phones. Peace out.

Pick moto, if you want the most stable experience without gimmicks, but then have no expectations and you will be stuck on the out of the box Android version basically almost forever. Pick xiaomi for updates, if you're a tech enthusiast caring for updates, but then there's no guarantee that something can fail with the update.

                          But im curious if Xiaomi have actually improved their ways in terms of listening to customer feedback as I don't see any proof out there apart from if you own a flagship and updates may be a bit quicker. Maybe.

But we can all agree it's still better to have updates than none at all.

                              Honestly though, the latest security updates aren't always guaranteed to protect your phone. My advice would be avoiding malicious websites, not sharing your personal info to people/websites you don't trust, and avoiding installing suspicious APK files from phony emails claiming to be wedding invitations or job offers.

                              Regarding how often they update their system apps, once in a while, but I don't know how often they do so in a span of a year.

                                And during it's lifetime apart from OS updates how often will Xiaomi/Redmi phones receive quality of life updates (such as the Gallery or Photos app, Camera app, Security app, etc.) in say a span of 12 months?

                                    Gino76ph, 17 Jul 2024If i can disable ads by turning off recommendations and not... moreSome apps like Themes allow you to disable ads, but they may still occasionally show up from time to time. Doesn't matter if you have Private DNS turned on or not.

                                    For 1st party apps, some of them can be uninstalled, but others such as GetApps, Mi Video, and Mi Browser cannot. Most other manufacturers like Samsung are no different regarding this, even Google themselves preload their Pixel phones with Google apps not everyone will use.

                                    For security updates, it's usually every 2-3 months, while OS updates may be irregular. But they do post roadmaps of which devices will be getting the latest OS update on their social media accounts once in a while, so keep an eye out for them.

                                    HyperOS certainly isn't perfect and I certainly have my own gripes with it, but I feel like its weaknesses are exaggerated. The phone is still perfectly usable for everyday usage and is quite snappy, it's just not for the ones looking for the most stable or clean experience with regular software updates.

                                    If you want the cleanest software experience with long updates, consider getting a Pixel instead.

Apple started removing them since 2016 with the iPhone 7/7 Plus to try to sell their AirPods to more people, and almost every company have been slowly following suit since.

                                      You can buy a USB-C to 3.5mm jack dongle if you want to keep using wired headphones, but they won't sound as good as using a dedicated headphone jack.
