Xiaomi may have started rolling out Google's latest operating system Android Oreo to some of its flagships, but there are dozens of popular smartphones that are yet to receive MIUI 9 based on Android 7.0 Nougat. Now, the good news is that the Chinese smartphone maker is seeding the firmware to 40 devices.
The Chinese technology giant has already rolled out the Android 7.0 Nougat-based MIUI 9 firmware to few of its handsets but several others have been kept in the dark until now. Most android smartphones get software support only for two years but surprisingly, some Xiaomi devices as old as six years are confirmed to receive the OS.
