These 5 Old Android Phones Can Now Update to Android 14 Thanks to LineageOS 21

With each new version of Android, a large number of devices reach the end of their useful life and stop receiving Android and security updates, which is dangerous because it makes them vulnerable to vulnerabilities that will no longer be patched. If you have one of these phones, but you don’t want to change your smartphone, you have the option of using a custom ROM like LineageOS.

Specifically, the popular ROM has just announced that LineageOS 21, its latest release based on Android 14, is now available for five more older Android phones that were left without support from their respective brands.

As reported by 9to5Google, over the past few weeks, LineageOS, the popular custom ROM for Android smartphones, has expanded LineageOS 21 support to more older devices, specifically confirming that a total of five phones from manufacturers like Samsung, Xiaomi, OnePlus or Realme can get Android 14 thanks to the aforementioned ROM.

Here are the five older Android smartphones that are already compatible with LineageOS 21:

- Samsung Galaxy A71 5G

- Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro

- Redmi K60 Pro

- OnePlus Nord N10 5G

- realme 10 Pro 5G

LineageOS 21 is a software release that, in addition to Android 14 features and the latest Android security patches, also includes a series of UI and performance improvements that will give you a more similar experience to that of Google Pixel phones.

If you have one of these five Android phones and want to install LineageOS 21, all you have to do is access the list of compatible devices at this link with the mentioned ROM, locate your device and follow the instructions to install it on your device.
