December security patch for Mi A3 released globally
Xiaomi has released the December security patch for Mi A3 users globally. It’s the only device released under the A-series with active support. The device is expected to receive security patch updates for the next few months. Unfortunately, the Android OS support ended with Android 11, and hence, it won’t receive the current Android OS. However, you can count on timely security patch updates as the company has released the December 2021 version.
The Xiaomi Mi A3 is picking up the December security patch a few days after the November patch was released. It’s unclear why the last patch came late, but the company is making up for it. They’re seeding the latest Google security patch to the global users to fix security vulnerabilities. As usual, the update has addressed some issues and optimized performance.
According to feedback, there are no noticeable changes or improvements, however, the update is safe. Hence, we recommend you install the December security patch for Mi A3, as some improvements and bug fixes must have been included in the build. Perhaps, for a security patch of 458MB, there should be more other than bumping the security patch level to December 2021.
Meanwhile, the update is seeding with a version number – V12.0.17.0 RFQMIXM. From the build number, it’s exclusive to the global users. We expect the European models to get the update in the coming days. For the global users, check for the latest update via System updates or download via the links below.
