Smlj sia. Don't their mid range stuff get 2 OS update? Just when Google is getting better than even Apple with 7 years update, Xiaomi is regressing in their support.

Pad 5 already gotten 2 OS updates, launched on Android 11, Android 12 update was late and buggy as hell, they fixed everything wrong with it on Android 13 update.

Not surprised that it is not getting Android 14, Poco F2 Pro has officially entered EOL list and only 2 OS updates and hardly 3 years of security updates.

Ahh ok. I thought Pad 5 only 1 but it seems that it's getting HyperOS according to the devices released. Poco F2 Pro I know since I got it at launch.

Only their flagships are getting 3 years OS update right? Not even the newer mid range are in this new policy?

is it still a good idea to buy xiaomi pad 5 (128gb) at ard $316?

For reference on 11.11 with very simple voucher (not counting those limited first 50 customer or flash vouchers)

Pad 6 was $369 - $24 store voucher - $18 platform voucher = $327

Pad 5 was $329 - $24 - $18 =$287

Might be able to get Pad 6 around that price on 12.12 if you're willing to take the chance

Any owners of mi pad 5 experienced wifi cannot turn on? The wifi on mine just suddenly stopped working. Using ver 14.0.8. Factory reset couldnt solve. Not much help from Googling
If factory reset can't solve probably have to make a trip to SC unless you wanna open up and and ownself fix, which may end up screwing up other things and pay even more for repair.
