Redmi Note 8 Pro is eligible for the MIUI 12.5 update and also MIUI 13, which will be unveiled next month. The device has already bagged the update in a few regions, including China, Indonesia, Global, and Europe. That suggested imminent rollout in India, but that has been pushed back, given that recent development. The Redmi Note 8 Pro in India is receiving a new stable update based on Android 10. It is a security patch build to increase system security and stability as well as address some problems.
The Redmi Note 8 Pro is receiving MIUI 12.5 and Android 11 simultaneously, and we anticipate that for the Indian models. However, it seems the build for that region is no ready yet, and hence, a stable-based MIUI 12 update was released. But that, given previous experience, doesn’t mean the update wouldn’t start arriving any time soon. For instance, the Mi 10T Lite received a stable MIUI 12 based update, and after few hours, MIUI 12.5 started seeding. Perhaps, we might see the same approach with the MIUI 12.5 rollout for Redmi Note 8 Pro in India.
However, instead of waiting for the arrival of MIUI 12.5, we recommend that you download the new Redmi Note 8 Pro update in India. The update weighs 2.1GB, which is not normal for a security patch build. We believe the update brought some bug fixes and probably to fortify the device ahead of the planned MIUI 12.5 and Android 11 upgrade. It is seeding with a version number – MIUI 12.0.6.0 QGGINXM – and has bumped the Android security patch level to June 2021 to increase system security.
