It’s no surprise why the many questions about the Redmi Note 8T Android 10 update. The phone is the same with the regular Redmi Note 8 but offers NFC. Both devices still run Android 9 with the closest they’ve got to receiving Android 10 being the first MIUI 12 Beta update, which was released in June but was quickly pulled due to some issues.  However, the company has since released a fresh MIUI 12 beta for the device ( Redmi Note 8 ), which is based on Android 10. Unfortunately, you will need an authorized Mi account to flash the…

POCO F2 Pro started receiving a stable MIUI 12 update yesterday, even without undergoing a beta phase. POCO F1 users were hoping to follow the same trail but received a rather underwhelming update this morning. Currently arriving via OTA on the device, is a stable MIUI 11 based Android 10 update that brings the latest Android security patch.  The latest POCO F1 Global stable update has a version number ” MIUI 11.0.9.0 QEJMIXM”, and weighs in at 154MB. It brings the June security patch, improves the system security, and fixes minor bugs. Unfortunately, the new update still doesn’t bring much…

That’s probably the reason many users installed the buggy update. The company reacted almost immediately by releasing a statement, which reads:…

Since the official unveiling of MIUI 12, Xiaomi has been busy with closed beta testing and has recently started rolling out the stable version of the update to eligible phones. POCO F2 Pro was always going to get the update, but not so soon as Beta team members were not recruited to test the pre-release ROM, just like the company is currently doing with Xiaomi Mi 10. Perhaps, since the phone has almost the same development as the Redmi K30 Pro, which has already received the stable MIUI 12 update in China, the company didn’t see the need to organize…

Xiaomi released the Mi 8 in early 2018, running Android 8.1 Oreo, which was the latest Android OS as of then. It has received two OS upgrades: Android 9 and Android 10, and is possible that’s where the journey ended, as regards OS upgrades. But of course, the device will receive the latest MIUI 12 Android skin, and as always, will introduce some of the Android 11 features.  While we wait for the MIUI 12 stable update to start rolling out, the latest Xiaomi Mi 8 global stable update has just gone live. The update has a version number, MIUI…
