Stable MIUI 12 update for the Redmi Note 8

Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 users for a couple of months now have waited for the arrival of the MIUI 12 update, after it was confirmed that the update will come along with Android 10. The first ETA (July) as regards the arrival, was given by Alvin Tse, Xiaomi executive in Indonesia, but due to system compatibility issues, the update was delayed.

However, those units in China never stopped receiving the weekly MIUI 12 builds, which kept the hope alive for an imminent arrival for the stable MIUI 12 update for the Redmi Note 8. And after months of not receiving the monthly security fix, hopes again were crushed a couple of days ago, when the device started receiving a stable MIUI 11-based August security patch.

But while the global, EEA and Indian users were receiving the MIUI 11-based update, the Chinese users didn’t report such, giving hope to the possible arrival of the MIUI 12 update in that Region. Typical of Xiaomi, they have now released a stable MIUI 12 update for the Redmi Note 8, which comes along with Android 10 in China.
