Xiaomi will update 40 devices to MIUI 9

Hats off to Xiaomi – it supports its devices for a long time. A long time. The company announced that it will update 40 devices to the latest MIUI 9 software. Some flagships already got it, but there are some really old devices on this list – some dating back to 2012!

Admittedly, MIUI 9 is based on Android 7.0 Nougat (or older), but it is heavily customized. Still, we’re talking about 6-year-old devices here. Most Androids get left out in the cold after less than 2 years (especially the cheaper models).

Anyway, here is the full list (some of those are already updated, others are waiting):

Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus • Xiaomi Redmi 5A • Xiaomi Mi 5X • Xiaomi Redmi 5
Xiaomi Redmi Y1 (Note 5A) • Xiaomi Mi Note 3 • Xiaomi Redmi 4 (4X) • Xiaomi Mi Max 2
Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X • Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 • Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 • Xiaomi Mi 6
Xiaomi Mi Pad 3 • Xiaomi Mi 5c • Xiaomi Redmi 4A • Xiaomi Mi Mix
Xiaomi Mi 5s Plus • Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime • Xiaomi Redmi Pro • Xiaomi Redmi 3x
Xiaomi Redmi 3s • Xiaomi Mi Max • Xiaomi Mi Note 2 • Xiaomi Mi 4s
Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 • Xiaomi Redmi 3 • Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 • Xiaomi Mi 4c
Xiaomi Mi 5s • Xiaomi Redmi 2A • Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 • Xiaomi Mi 5
Xiaomi Mi Note • Xiaomi Redmi 2 • Xiaomi Mi 4 • Xiaomi Redmi 1S
Xiaomi Mi Pad 7.9 • Xiaomi Redmi Note • Xiaomi Mi 2S • Xiaomi Mi 2

I don't. I absolutely despise companies that leave you out in cold after just 2 years. Xiaomi providing such long term support made me decide I'll be buying only Xiaomi phones from now on. I probably won't be using them for more than 3 years, but I c...

Disaster update,pushing 6 years old devices with latest update is just like pulling a cow onto a tree. Doubt their decision making.
