Modern technology is now more powerful, has better functions, and is made to last. This implies that outmoded older models require assistance to stay relevant. Nevertheless, the end of maintenance is a necessary component of the technological transformation, particularly for businesses like Xiaomi, which releases hundreds of models each year.
Other device manufacturers can benefit from the knowledge provided by Xiaomi's statement. Companies can begin preparing for the end of the life cycle of their products by identifying which versions of their devices are no longer supported. This happened over a year after Tech Nave reported that Xiaomi formally discontinued software support for 70 smartphones.
