But having said that, Xiaomi 11T and 11T Pro how many years of support will they receive? According to what the company said on its blog, the series will receive 3 years of updates and 4 years of security patches. Speaking of Xiaomi's software update update, Albert Shan, The company's Head of Product & Technology, said:
With the continuous improvement being made to smartphone hardware, the life cycle of a smartphone is gradually lengthening, which means that users are not required to replace their smartphone as often. For this reason, more and more consumers place great emphasis on receiving the latest operating system updates, along with the latest features. Xiaomi is committed to providing users with industry-leading hardware and lasting performance.
It should be remembered that this step would not be possible without Qualcomm's participation and approval. Indeed, as we have seen previously, it is not the phone brand that decides how many updates to make. It is the company that supplies the SoCs that decides to give the "keys" for updates to individual companies. Albert Shan goes on to say:
In continuity with this commitment to users, Xiaomi is further extending the life cycle of Xiaomi smartphones by guaranteeing three generations of updates to the Android operating system. This way, users can choose to use their current devices for a longer period and take advantage of the latest features. At the same time, we will also be providing users with security updates that ensure their devices work safely for a longer period of time.
