As it prepares to release the HyperOS 3, Xiaomi is officially discontinuing a new generation of devices. The retailer has added a number of additional models to its end-of-life (EOL) list with its most recent internal update, which means that the company will no longer formally support these devices. Let’s have a look.
These Xiaomi Phones That Won’t Get Future Updates
The Chinese IT behemoth is anticipated to be focusing on HyperOS 3, its proprietary Android 16 skin, now that Google has begun releasing Android 16. For the worldwide versions of the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 14T Pro, the company has already made the Android 16 update available with HyperOS 2.3. Xiaomi has updated its list of devices that are nearing their “end-of-line,” while other eligible models will receive the significant software update.
This covers a variety of models, such as Redmi phones, Xiaomi-branded gadgets, and even POCO models. Here are all the phones for which official support is being discontinued:
- Xiaomi 11T Pro
- Xiaomi 11T
- Xiaomi 11 Lite LE
- Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE
- Redmi 11 Prime 4G
- Redmi A1+
- Redmi A1
- POCO M5
- POCO C50
It’s important to remember that security updates for these recently added devices will continue until September 2025. For these older phones, Xiaomi does not intend to release any official upgrades. Models that did not even receive the HyperOS 2 update are included in the list that was previously shared. Xiaomi is currently working on Android 16, but they have not yet released an official roadmap for the HyperOS 3 rollout. So stay tuned for more.
