For a couple of years, the POCO offered its M series devices only 2 OS upgrades and 3 years of security support. Now the brand is set to expand its software update policy for the affordable devices, starting with POCO M8 5G.
The company is committed to offering 4 OS upgrades and 6 years of maintenance software support to the POCO M8 5G phone.

Further, Poco’s major software policy step for affordable devices suggests that there may be changes possible in the policies of midrange and flagship devices in the coming time.
POCO M8 5G key specifications
The POCO M8 is powered with Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 and runs on Android 15-based HyperOS 2. It sports a 6.77-inch AMOLED curved display with 120 Hz refresh rate support. The smartphone is packed with 5520 mAh and supports 45W fast charging.
The device has a 20MP selfie camera; meanwhile, on the backside, it houses a dual camera setup including a 50MP main and a 2MP secondary camera.
Moreover, last month we also published an article about the Redmi 15C software update policy. It seems Xiaomi is now also focusing on improving users’ software experience to enhance the trustworthiness of the brand.
