A few days ago, we saw Poco X4 and Xiaomi 11T receiving the Android 13 MIUI 14 update. Today, the manufacturer has started rolling out the latest Android 13 OS based MIUI 14 build for the Poco X4 GT handset, which is starting with a small number of users and will expand gradually.
The update is being pushed out globally for the users who signed up for MI Pilot program. So, if you are not a part of the pilot program, you’ll have to wait for Poco to release the update to a larger group of people, once pilot testers report there are no major issues with the build. It will take a few more days to reach for every user with a simple notification and OTA download.
The MIUI 14 update Poco X4 GT has version number MIUI 14.0.1.0.TLOMIXM, and it requires an OTA download of 709MB. It comes with a bunch of MIUI 14 features, along with all the goodies of Android 13 OS, as well as January 2023 Android security patch.
MIUI 14 update brings an improved system architecture with pre-installed apps taking less space and also CPU using less power leading to better performance. The update also brings more personalization options with an all-new widget format, home screen folders and “Super icons”. It will add improved search function in settings with search history and results sorted by categories. The new update also brings support for more wireless card readers and connection speed boost by using mobile data when Wi-Fi signal is weak. Here’s the full changelog of the update provided by Poco:
