Xiaomi will be soon releasing the Android 6.0 Marshmallow updates for a few of its devices including Xiaomi Mi 4, Mi Note and Mi 3. According to the MIUI operations manager, the update seems to be in the final stages of testing and will see the light soon.
This was an update that many were waiting for with bated breath and
with this update Xiaomi will join a handful of other phone manufacturers
who have already updated their phones with the Marshmallow. The update
seems to have in fact reached the update validation stage which means
that it might start seeding pronto.
Many Xiaomi users were dejected when the company still stuck to the
age old Android KitKat 4.4 even after releasing the MIUI 7 ROM, but
Xiaomi contradicted the apprehension saying that the base version of the
OS wouldn’t matter as the features in MIUI 7 would be same. This is
indeed a legit argument but it sort of loses its steam as some of the
apps from the Playstore run only on the Android Lollipop and newer
versions.
Now it seems that the phones will be directly updated to the Android
Marshmallow. The update is currently in Beta stage, post which it will
hit the developer version and finally it will shape up as a stable OTA
update, the entire process will take some time. We still aren’t sure if
the update is coming for international users as well, or just the
Chinese users for now.
We would suggest the novice users to wait for the stable version as
the Beta is susceptible to bugs and other malfunctions which might
ultimately affect your phones functionality. On the other hand if you
won’t mind getting your hands dirty and experiment along with the
device, the beta update is for you. We shall be posting more details as
and when they become. Stay tuned.
