With the arrival of so many new models by Xiaomi and also Poco, the old smartphones can be forgotten. Since Xiaomi is not very prone to doing this first turn, it is expected that it will not do it with the Pocophone F1 either. The new version of Android 11 is the update that is causing many doubts and confusion among users and in Xiaomi’s own forums we see it.
Despite having MIUI 12 from the first moment and having practically updated its layer in all users who continue to enjoy this flagship mobile, Android 11 sow many doubts. It is true that the model should not receive more versions of Android, since it has already made the two expected leaps in the operating system, but experience says something very different.
The popularity of the Pocophone F1 can make you have Android 11
In previous Xiaomi models we have already been able to see important movements for bringing new versions of MIUI or Android to their terminals given the popularity, something that can be repeated in the Pocophone F1. The Redmi Note 8 could be another of those chosen, given the large volume of sales they have achieved. In the case of the Pocophone, it is a model that gave life to a new brand, which is still capable of moving the most demanding applications and games thanks to the Snapdragon 845 and its option with 6 GB of RAM and 128 storage.
From the Xiaomi forum we find posts from the moderators where they openly mention that there are options for the Pocophone F1 to receive the update with Android 11 . In his message he mentioned: “We do not have any information about it. POCO F1 has already received the two main promised Android updates, so anything else will be an advantage for our users. We may get it, but we do not expect it to be fast. as in the new devices. We have to wait to see it. “
Following in the footsteps of Samsung and Google
The Google Pixels were among the first to offer an extra update beyond the first two years since its launch, although they were only for security patches. Then it was Samsung who has been encouraged to offer 3 years of updates for the Android operating system and the One UI layer in its corresponding version. Something that Xiaomi could imitate in specific cases like the one we are dealing with.
Mobile phones are increasingly qualified to last in time and evolution is no longer as accelerated as it used to be, something that will allow developers to adapt Android to mobile phones and not leave users stranded at the first change. In this way, the average life of a mobile could be exceeded, which is established at about two years.
