It can be confusing to keeping up with Xiaomi phones due to their naming. The company keeps renaming its phone in every region, which is the case with the Redmi 9 Prime. It is the same device as the Redmi 9 but exclusive to India, and hence, will receive the MIUI 12.5 on the first wave. The next iteration of MIUI will start seeding next month, and the Redmi 9 (Prime) is among the first few to get the update. And probably due to that, Xiaomi has started pushing a new security patch update for the Redmi 9 Prime with…

The Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 might be a flagship phone, but the software support it has got after hitting the shelves has been underwhelming. That was the situation of the Mi Mix 3 5G until recently. The device now runs MIUI 12 and has been receiving monthly security patches. It is still stuck on Android 9 though, and it seems Xiaomi isn’t planning to upgrade the device anytime soon.

All Xiaomi sold in Turkey have their MIUI build, which is designated with “TR.” According to recent reports, Xiaomi has released the first Android 11 update for Mi 10 and POCO F2 Pro in Turkey. Surprisingly, the update is a stable release, meaning it has been released for everyone, and you can successfully install the Recovery ROM. Xiaomi has a particular approach, perhaps the…

Xiaomi is working to finalize the Android 11 rollout to focus on the MIUI 12.5. That will give them time to also focus on making plans for the Android 12, which the developers preview has already started rolling out. Hence, we expect the company to expand the Android 11 to all regions. Perhaps, for those eligible devices running the update already. It looks like what’s happening as the Mi Note 10 / Pro Android 11 update in Russia is released. The Redmi 8 is also getting a new update in that region. According to reports, Xiaomi Android 11 builds have…
