Unlike other Chinese operators including Vivo and Oppo, Xiaomi has always been the one to roll out MIUI (its custom OS based on Android) updates frequently.
Sadly, though, we can’t say the same when it comes to latest Android updates. That, however, seems to change soon. We say this as the company was spotted testing the Nougat build to one of its most successful smartphones, the Note 3 a couple of months ago.
We hope the company keeps it that way and let its devices taste the sweetness of Nougat as soon as possible.
