Towards the tail end of last year, Xiaomi released the Mi Note 10, a rebadged Mi CC9 Pro, but exclusive for the Chinese users. It was the first device to hit the shelves to rocking the 108MP sensor and runs Android 9 based on MIUI 11 outside-of-the-box. The device was going to receive two OS updates, having debuted under the Mi-series. And as expected, it picked the Android 10 update a couple of months ago, which arrived with stable MIUI 11 build, and now, the global stable MIUI 12 update for Mi Note 10 has been released.

A couple of days ago, Xiaomi bumped the Mi A2 Lite security patch level to July and has now started rolling out that of August.

It made the users start asking questions, and luckily, some publications started advocating for an update to be released…

The same update was also expected for the Mi 9 Lite, which sold as Mi CC9 in China. It turns out the update is now arriving for those users in Europe. Going by the reports on Mi community forum, not only the European users are getting the global stable MIUI 12 update for Mi 9 Lite. Those users in Russia, alongside the global users, have all started receiving the stable beta build now. The update…

A few days ago, Xiaomi Mi 9 SE started receiving a stable beta MIUI 11 update. That came as a surprise to most users, given that the same device has already received the MIUI 12 update back in Xiaomi’s home country, China. That, however, has been the company policy on rolling out Major updates to its phones, but as expected, the global stable MIUI 12 for Mi 9 SE has now gone live. The European users of the high-end device are also receiving the much-anticipated Android skin, alongside the global units. It’s hitting the European variants with a software number…
