For the last few years, Google has been releasing new versions of Android in August. But this year the search giant did not do so. The next version of Android is expected to launch alongside the Pixel 8 series in October.
Starting in August, OEM partners are making the public beta of Android 14 available for their devices. The most prominent of these are Oppo, OnePlus and Xiaomi. They all launched their ventures in August, starting with China. OnePlus recently opened the Android 14 beta program to users worldwide. Now even Xiaomi has joined the club.
In China, Xiaomi’s Android 14 beta program only covers Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro. However, for international markets, the company also included Xiaomi 12T in the list. We already knew that these three devices would soon receive the update in August.
As usual, beta versions of the software for the above-mentioned smartphones are only available to certain users. These are deployed for Mi Pilot testers only.
Although firmware files can be downloaded from Xiaomi servers by anyone, they cannot be installed on every device. The software build verifies the Xiaomi account, IMEI number and serial number associated with test users employed by the company.
Therefore, regular users will have to wait for a while to get the latest software. It may take weeks or even months for Android 14 to become official. Coming to the MIUI version, it is still 14 even though we have been hearing about MIUI 15 for a while now. The next iteration of MIUI is expected to arrive with Xiaomi 14 series in November.
