Xiaomi is currently pushing a new stable update for the Redmi Note 9 globally. It has been a while since an update arrived for the device. Probably, the company is planning on rolling out Android 11, and the latest update could be to fortify the device, ahead of the upgrade. The update is live globally and in Russia. It brings an updated security patch alongside multiple optimizations and bug fixes. But as usual, only a handful of users will receive the update pending when the beta preview is completed. The beta preview should last for a couple of days, and hence, anticipate the update in the next coming days if you haven’t received it yet.
Meanwhile, the update is hitting eligible users globally with a version number – MIUI 12.0.7.0 QJOMIXM – and weighs in at 673MB. The same is what’s arriving for the Russian variants but with a different version number and size. If you’re in that region, the update will arrive as MIUI 12.0.5.0 QJORUXM in a 671MB package.
The new stable update for the Redmi Note 9 is a security patch but brings lots of optimization and bug fixes. It increased app launch speed, overall response speed, while multiple system features are more responsive now. Also, issues triggered by insufficient RAM resources got a fix while the Android security patch level now dates February 2021. Interestingly, the camera is now better and works faster as non-essential features have become temporarily unavailable. Below is the complete changelog of the new update.
