There have been several reports in the past few weeks to hint at a possible Xiaomi MIUI 13 launch time frame. The last piece of information came from a Xiaomi executive who alleged the next iteration of MIUI (MIUI 13) was going to launch this month. That looked promising, given the supposed features of MIUI 13 that have surfaced on the internet over the past weeks. However, things took a different turn a few days ago when the upcoming Mi Mix 4 was confirmed to debut with MIUI 12.5. The premium Xiaomi phone was supposed to debut with MIUI 13, but that’s off as Xiaomi MIUI 13 won’t be launching until the end of the year.
According to Xiaomi Chief Executive Officer, Lei Jun, during this year’s annual speech, the company will release MIUI 13 at the end of the year. That means the initial August launch time is not happening, although that was expected, given the recent development. The executive emphasized that MIUI 13 needs more polishing. That is perhaps, the reason why the launch date has been shifted to the end of the year. And from his speech, the company’s next iteration of MIUI will “concentrate on solving the basics that everyone is most concerned about.” Also, “for basic experience issues, we will also report on the overall rectification situation this time.” We expect MIUI 13 to focus on optimization and improving the stability of MIUI, which are probably the cause of all problems faced by Mi fans.
Now, it has been made official that Xiaomi MIUI 13 will launch at the end of the year, perhaps alongside Mi 12. If that’s the case, we anticipate the device to debut pre-installed with MIUI 13. Also, we expect to see more features of the next MIUI Android skin now the launch time frame has been confirmed. Hopefully, we will have the exact launch date in the coming weeks or months.
