The latest device to start receiving the MIUI 12.5 update is POCO X3. It has a slight difference from the global version as it lacks NFC and a few minor changes. Despite these few alterations, both models have the same development. It makes sense that Xiaomi starts pushing the POCO X3 MIUI 12.5 update already as it’s been days since the build arrived in other regions. As expected, the update is now available to select units for preview. It should be released to the public after the beta preview in the coming days.
Xiaomi POCO X3 MIUI 12.5 update is seeding with a version number – MIUI 12.5.2.0 RJGINXM. It weighs in at 704MB and brings the features of the new MIUI OS. And while you might not see any changes after upgrading, here are the few things you might need to check out. The notification panel has been revamped as well as the control center. Each notification has a drop-down menu for you to seamlessly reply to messages without opening the app. Also, UI has changed and looks sleeker while you can swipe left or right to switch between the control center and notification panel.
Meanwhile, you have to reveal one first before swiping – swipe from top right for the control center and left for the notification panel. Another thing is apps permission. All were revoked by this build, and hence, you’ll have to redo them. Also, it automatically sets your default browser to Mi browser, and you might have to change that. Luckily, you can uninstall the browser if you don’t fancy it.
And going by the update log, the POCO X3 MIUI 12.5 update has improved gesture response time, optimized performance, and introduced 20x more rendering power. It has bumped the Android security patch level to July 2021 to increase system security and stability. You can check the updater app for the update or use the link below.
