The update from the changelog, is basically, a patch build, even the size confirms that as well. It didn’t bring the Android 10 update, but recent reports claim the device to be testing Android 10. Also according to Xiaomi, the next Chinese Beta build for the device will be based on Android 10, along with the Mi CC9E. We expect the update to arrive with next month’s security patch, but there’s still no official time frame yet.

The Redmi Note 8 debuted in August last year with Snapdragon 665 Octa-Core processor. It runs Android Pie outside-of-the-box and still stuck while the Pro variant is already on a new OS. Eyebrows were raised when Xiaomi opted for Mediatek processor over a Qualcomm Chipset because people believe the former don’t get a timely update.
However, the reverse is the case in this situation. The Note 8 Pro already got Android 10 build and still arriving till now. You can follow this link and download the Global Stable Android 10 ROM for your Note 8 Pro.
