They had to develop an intermediary version to address the issue facing MIUI, which has been rolling out for some time now. As expected, the update has improved the stability of MIUI, and now, the company can start the MIUI 13 development.  When Xiaomi released the list of phones to receive MIUI 12, it had Redmi 7, Redmi 6A, Redmi Y3, and others. However, some of…

The Redmi K20 / Mi 9T becomes the latest Xiaomi phone to start receiving a stable Android 11 update. We anticipated the update, but with MIUI 12.5.

With the Chinese models now receiving a stable MIUI 12.5 update which brings Android 11 along, it won’t be long till the global users start receiving the update. Looking at the Mi…

The Xiaomi MIUI Android skin is the one with many issues until the recent release of MIUI 12.5. It has addressed some problems facing the OS, but the proximity sensor issue has persisted for “few” people. Even before the latest iteration of MIUI started rolling out, there has been a call for Xiaomi to address the issue, which they did with OTAs.
