Xiaomi is extending software support across the entire series. The company promises up to six years of security updates, with selected models receiving up to six years of battery health. The REDMI Note 17 Pro Max 5G specifically gets a six-year “like-new software experience.” This means the phone is designed to remain secure and functional for years, which is increasingly important as users keep their devices longer.
