A few Redmi and POCO devices that Xiaomi has listed will no longer receive HyperOS updates. It is a typical change in the lives of Xiaomi smartphones. When some models reach the end of their existence, the corporation formally updates its EOL (end of life) list.
The Chinese OEM is well-known for delivering upgrades for HyperOS to a variety of smartphones. It uses a distinct approach for each model, such as POCO and Redmi.
In addition to four years of security fixes, Redmi and POCO phones are eligible for two or three major OS upgrades. The business then puts them on the EOL list.
The tech giant has currently stopped supporting HyperOS updates for a few Redmi and POCO smartphones. Major software updates, monthly security patch rollouts, and basic enhancement patches will no longer be available for these models. Look at the phones listed below:
Redmi Devices
- Redmi Note 11 SE
- Redmi Note 11S 5G
- Redmi Note 11S
- Redmi Note 11
- Redmi Note 11 5G
- Redmi 10C
- Redmi 10 2022
POCO Devices
- POCO M4 Pro
- POCO X4 Pro 5G
As Xiaomi devices reach the end of their life cycle, software support is frequently discontinued. For customers that are already utilizing the EOL models, this procedure poses a problem. In this scenario, you can keep using the gadget without anticipating security upgrades or new features.
With long-term software support, users can even move to a different model. Searching for unofficial upgrades like LineageOS is the last resort.
