Xiaomi models will receive MIUI 14: the official list of 2026 and the nuances of the update

What is MIUI 14 and why is it important?

The upgrade to MIUI 14 was one of the most anticipated events for Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO smartphone owners in 2023-2026, a firmware version that brought not only visual changes, but also deep performance optimizations, improved data protection and new features based on Android 13/14.

In this article, we’ve compiled an officially confirmed list of models that will receive (or have already received) MIUI 14, and we’ll also break down hidden limitations that Xiaomi doesn’t openly talk about. For example, some 2020-2021 smartphones may lose support due to insufficient RAM or an outdated chipset, and you’ll learn how to check the compatibility of your device and what to do if the update doesn’t come.

Important: the information is up to date in May 2026. Xiaomi can adjust listings based on testing and user feedback. If your model is not on the list, this does not always mean a final failure: sometimes updates are delayed by 3-6 months.

Why some Xiaomi won’t get MIUI 14: Technical Limitations

Xiaomi has set three key criteria for the device to lose support for MIUI 14:

1. Model age: Smartphones older than 3 years (released before 2020) are usually removed from the list.
2. RAM: Minimum threshold is 4 GB of RAM. Devices with 3 GB (e.g. Redmi 9A) will not receive an update.
3. Chipset: Processors based on Qualcomm Snapdragon 6xx/4xx or MediaTek Helio Gxx older than 2021 may not pass testing.

Xiaomi also takes into account regional features, such as global versions (Global ROM) of some models getting updates later than the Chinese (China ROM), and there is a risk that budget devices (such as the Redmi A Series) will remain on MIUI 13 forever.

⚠️ Note: If your smartphone is not on the official list, but you see an availability notice MIUI 14 may be a fake update (phishing). Never install firmware from unverified sources!
