Xiaomi Ends Support for 12 Series and 3 Redmi Models on Updated EOL List

3 articles · Updated · TrustedReviews · Jul 6

Summary

  • Xiaomi’s updated End-of-Life list cuts off software updates, security patches and bug fixes for several phones, including the Xiaomi 12, 12 Pro and China-only 12S Ultra.
  • Three Redmi models newly listed are the Redmi Note 12T Pro, Redmi K60E and Redmi 10 5G (EEA), alongside regional variants of the Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro and some Poco devices.
  • Devices on the EOL list will keep working, but they will no longer receive Android or HyperOS upgrades, new features, performance improvements or fixes for newly found security flaws.
  • Many affected phones had already received their final promised major Android update, making this the point where Xiaomi’s remaining official support fully ends.
  • The change spans former flagship and mid-range models, raising security risks for users who still rely on them for banking, work or sensitive data.
