The renowned global tech giant Xiaomi has built its reputation in the market with high-performance devices at competitive prices. The reason behind Xiaomi’s reputation is the software that the brand periodically updates for the devices. However, Xiaomi is about to stop software support for some models that have reached the end of their lifecycle.
Xiaomi Ends Software Support
There are many reasons why Xiaomi eventually stopped software updates for its older devices. As smartphones get older, their hardware is unable to handle new software features and updates. This is also seen in many new versions of Android and MIUI, which often require more processing power, memory, and storage than the older device.
Forcibly pushing updates to these devices can also lead to problems like poor performance, crashes, etc. Stopping these updates can also prevent the problem of becoming a security risk. Xiaomi’s policy is also adopted by other manufacturers like Google, Samsung, and OnePlus.
Due to this patch closure, it becomes difficult to address the vulnerabilities in the Android operating system and MIUI, and the device cannot be protected from malware, hacking, and other security threats. After some time, many types of worms and bugs can also be seen in the device. The brand has already released a list of many devices that will no longer be given any kind of update.
