Xiaomi finally launched its Xiaomi 13 series of smartphones in the global market during the ongoing Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023.
The Xiaomi 13 series includes the vanilla Xiaomi 13, Xiaomi 13 Lite, and Xiaomi 13 Pro smartphones.
At the very end of the launch event, Xiaomi also announced a list of smartphones that would soon be receiving the latest MIUI 14 update.
Xiaomi had earlier confirmed that MIUI 14 will be officially rolling out in India starting today. The list, consisting of a total of 18 smartphones, mostly includes the high-end Xiaomi smartphones, but some mid-range Redmi devices have made it to the list as well.
Though an actual rollout date has not been confirmed, we now have a tentative timeframe during which (at least) these devices should receive the MIUI 14 update. Let’s take a look.
MIUI 14 Expected Features
Reimagined Home screen
You can arrange your home screen in your way. Using tabular icons, big folders, widgets and wallpapers to not only stylize your own home screen, but also make it look clearer and easier for your everyday use.
Flexible and intuitive design
Introducing card-style design on your display just help to present your information more efficiently, just like Post-it notes but only more organized.
Back-end optimization
MIUI is lighter than ever with optimized system resources that take up less storage and optimized overall system memory usage to free more memory. The rarely used apps will be auto-compressed by MIUI 14. Notifications are not permanent Now. If you do not need them any more, just close them.
On-Device Privacy
Sensitive items are processed without leaving your device. MIUI 14 minimizes such risks by using on-device privacy protection mechanisms that allow the processing of sensitive items directly on your device.
On-device privacy protection mechanisms allow MIUI 14 to recognize text on images quickly and accurately by using the capabilities of your device. On-device privacy is available for 10+ system services.
Connected devices
Connect devices seamlessly and switch in a snap. Sync the app you are using between your smartphone and tablet, with a simple click from your task bar. Drag and drop, it’s so easy to transfer files between devices.
Xiaomi MIUI 14 update rollout (global): eligible devices
MIUI 14 Supported Devices
Xiaomi’s software update policy remains hazy as ever, so it’s difficult to ascertain exactly what devices will get treated to the new update. The company’s Product Support Policy Overview says that it maintains security updates for 2 years, but there are some models that can be supported for 3 years.
Based on this, we’ve arrived at the following list. The list contains the names of devices that are almost certain to receive MIUI 14, but there can be others that may have been missed. Do note that MIUI 14 may or may not be based on Android 13 on your device.

2. Redmi Note 10 Pro

The very last tab confirms that Xiaomi intends to add more devices to the list, and post the first batch rollout, we can expect other Xiaomi/Redmi devices to follow suit, and, in all likelihood, more devices from the brand will receive MIUI 14 sometime during Q2, 2023.
It remains to be seen whether Xiaomi rolls out Android 13 alongside the MIUI 14 update to all the devices in the list or it makes the MIUI 14/Android 13 combo available to select devices for now.
