Xiaomi shares MIUI 14 rollout schedule for Poco phones in India

Earlier this week, Xiaomi shared a list of smartphones eligible for the MIUI 14 upgrade. Now Xiaomi’s sub-brand Poco has released the MIUI 14 rollout schedule for devices in India. The list consists of ten Poco smartphones, including the Poco X5 Pro, which ran MIUI 14 with Android 12 at launch. The timeline shared by Poco, on the other hand, stands for MIUI 14 updates based on Android 13.

The list also includes the Poco F4. The F4 already got Android 13 and MIUI 14 with Reliance Jio 5G support in India, but so far only for participants in the open beta. The Poco F4 stable update will be rolled out in Q2 2023, i.e. between April and June 2023. See the image above for more details on the rollout schedule.

Xiaomi Smart Band 8 undergoes certification

Xiaomi has submitted the Smart Band 8 to the Korean certification authority NRRA. The entry also includes two photos that reveal some details about the wearable. The images show that Xiaomi is sticking to the pill-shaped design for the Smart Band 8. However, for the first time the bracelet will be in two parts instead of the previous rubber loop.

This isn’t the first time Xiaomi has used this solution on its wearables. The Redmi Watch 3 and Smart Band 7 Pro also had two-piece straps that needed a small attachment mechanism. With regard to the technical data, the NRRA does not bring any new findings. Given that the Smart Band 8 is actually gathering certifications in markets around the world with the model number M2239B1, its launch should be imminent.
