Xiaomi Smartphones Getting Oreo Update

You can see the list of Xiaomi smartphones getting Android Oreo update here. Most of you might know that the manufacturers offer at least two Android updates. We can’t expect more from Xiaomi provided its history. The devices getting Oreo as the second major updates won’t be having Android 9.0 update in the next year.

Xiaomi Mi 6 Oreo Update

Mi 6 is Xiaomi’s flagship for 2017. It packs in some sturdy specifications both underneath and over the hood. They shipped it with MIUI 8 running on top of Android 7.1.1 Nougat. Mi 6 will surely get 8.0 Oreo update. However, it is hard to tell when.

Xiaomi Mi Mix Oreo Update

Xiaomi made an electronic wonder by releasing a smartphone (dubbed as Mi Mix) with near bezel-less screen. Despite the USP, it also has some hefty features. Although the device hit the market with 6.0 Marshmallow, they had released Nougat back in June. Mi Mix will also get the next Android version update.

Xiaomi Mi Max 2 Oreo Update

Not every one of us wants a small screen device. Mix Max series devices are meant for those who crave out for a phone with bigger display. We expect the company will roll out the Android version 8.0 Oreo update for Mix Max 2 as well. Xiaomi shipped the device with 7.0 Nougat on it.

Mi A1 is the Indian version of Mi 5X. Xiaomi joined hands together with Google to launch their Android One smartphone in India. The only difference we can spot on Mi A1, which we can’t see on 5X is the stock Android. Given the same fact, this one might be the first Xiaomi phone to get the Oreo update. We expect them to release it by the end of this year.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Oreo Update

Xiaomi sold Redmi Note 3 like a hotcake. Note 4 literally became a best seller in India with millions of sales. We expect Oreo update for it. It got Nougat last month.
