Another advantage Android One phones have, aside from running stock android is the timely update they get. They are also promised two OS upgrades and at least three years of support. The Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite received its last OS update a few months ago, which left some serious bugs. However, developers have been fixing some of the reported bugs with subsequent updates and have now released the October security patch update for the Mi A2 Lite. The update is arriving for the global version of the device with a version number V11.0.12.0 QDLMIXM. Thus far, it’s only available for…

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 8/8T remain one of the company’s most popular devices, but the support it has received in the past couple of months is not encouraging.
