Xiaomi and Android 13: all the custom ROMs available | Download

It's that time of year: Google has released Android 13 and smartphones Xiaomi, Redmi e POCO are starting to officially update. However, not all Xiaomi smartphone owners will be able to benefit from the innovations introduced by Google's latest major update. Like many other smartphone manufacturers in circulation, the Xiaomi catalog also suffers from fragmentation that afflicts the Android world so much. Fortunately, Google's mobile OS offers some flexibility, and the modding community takes advantage of this to create Custom ROM that can carry Android 13 even on older models.

Here are which Xiaomi smartphones can be updated thanks to custom ROMs with Android 13

As you can see in this article, are a portion of Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO worldwide will receive the update to Android 13. Especially if you have a model launched in 2019 or earlier, there is a high chance that the Android update will stop at a version prior to the 13th. I refer for example to the Xiaomi Mi 9 family, to the Redmi Note 9 family or to very popular but dated models such as POCO F1 and similar. But since we are also talking about devices out of warranty, thanks to the world of modding it is possible to circumvent this limit and act manually.

But be careful: since we are talking about custom ROMs, you have to run it unlocking the bootloader and have one TWRP custom recovery to install them. Below you will find the list of Xiaomi, Redmi and smartphones POCO for which at least one custom ROM based on Android 13 is available, with its thread for download links, bugs and feedback.
