This is good news because most older phones – especially the entry-levels and the midrangers get neglected by companies and stop receiving updates after newer phones are released. Most of the manufacturers like Samsung, Huawei, Apple and others stop updating their older phones in a year or two.
Do you have a Xiaomi phone? Does your phone brand update older phones? Sound off in the comments.
