Xiaomi Redmi 9 now receiving a stable MIUI 12 update
It’s been five months since Xiaomi officially unveiled the MIUI 12. Since then, the new Android skin has arrived on multiple phones including premium and mid-range, with the entry-level Redmi 9 now receiving the stable update as well. The Redmi 9 debuted a couple of months ago running a stable MIUI 11 based on Android 10. It was always going to receive the MIUI 12 update, and just after two months, the update is now available.
The stable MIUI 12 update for the Xiaomi Redmi 9 has a version number, MIUI 12.0.1.0 QCTINXM, and is based on Android 10. It’s currently arriving for limited users and will progressively appear on eligible units in the coming days.
