We are in full deployment of Android 12 . This is a process that is not characterized by its excessive speed, since these types of updates are launched progressively to adjust for possible failures that may arise during their arrival on the rest of the devices. This is something that is also extrapolated to the software of each manufacturer.
In both cases, users eagerly await their smartphone to receive the new versions of both the operating system and its respective customization layer. Xiaomi is one of those that is preparing its devices for the next arrival of MIUI 13. That is why consumers who have a Redmi terminal wonder how many updates their phone will enjoy.
New policy
The update policy for each brand is completely different. In the case of the Chinese technology giant, it has undergone certain changes a few months ago, thus clarifying the version that each mobile will reach. Until a while ago, the Asian brand’s methodology for this was a bit confusing, since each cell phone was different.
With this modification, Xiaomi makes clear its commitment to enhancing its policy and satisfying buyers to a greater extent . However, it is necessary to emphasize that this varies depending on the range in which the smartphone in question is found. As far as Redmi is concerned, whose launches are usually in the entry or medium range, variations are also perceived.
First of all, the so-called mid-range mobiles will receive two updates to the Android operating system. In this situation we come across, for example, the Redmi Note 9 series, which will see how it gets to enjoy the news of Android 12. On the other hand, those who have a low-end , such as the recent launch Redmi 10, will have to settle for just one more version of Google software.
Will you run out of MIUI 13?
This reform in its update methodology also affects MIUI , Xiaomi’s software that Redmi also uses. If you wonder incessantly if the new version will reach your terminal, here is the answer.
Following a similar pattern to that used for the operating system, Xiaomi offers 2 major updates to its software for both the mid-range and entry-level phones. This means that practically any launch from the Redmi 9 will feature MIUI 13.
However, it was recently announced that the famous Redmi Note 8 has entered the beta program of this version. A fact that is quite confusing , since it came to the market with MIUI 10. It may only be an exception, but what is certain is that you have at least 2 updates.
In addition, you must bear in mind that intermediate versions such as MIUI 12.5 do not fall within the quota indicated by Xiaomi and Redmi. So if your smartphone arrived on the market with MIUI 11, it is official that in the future the new update of the customization layer will make an appearance to completely change your phone.
