Xiaomi MIUI 14 update officially announced in India: Check eligible device list

After launching the MIUI 14 build in China last year, Xiaomi has finally brought its latest custom Android skin to the Indian market. The first smartphone to use the new skin and to run Android 13 will be the Xiaomi 13 Pro. The MIUI 14 will be rolled out in a phase-wise manner with the latest high-end devices from Xiaomi getting it first.

The ever-evolving operating system gets a ton of optimizations with the MIUI 14, one of which is the Smart ROM Optimisation, which reduces cached storage by up to 3GB over the course of three months. The amount of system storage has also been decreased, allowing devices with 128GB of storage to receive up to 4GB of freed-up space.

The company claims that MIUI 14 offers the fastest boot-up speeds ever on a Xiaomi device while using 200MB less memory during the boot-up process than MIUI 13 did. In order to free up valuable ROM space for the features that users value most, the company has also significantly reduced the size of the package.

The MIUI 14 also has a redesigned user interface (UI), which gives the OS’s external appearance some new life. There are new card-style widgets and 6 new wallpapers to select from. The company also asserts that by employing new algorithms, the animations are now more fluid and have less “friction.” The experience has also been improved with the addition of features like copying text from a gallery shot and eliminating things from an image.
