Xiaomi will extend MIUI+ support to MacBooks and is working to bring MTK models onboard
Before the official unveiling of MIUI 12.5, the MIUI+, previously known as the “Screen Combo feature,” was limited to Mi 10 Ultra and only supports Mi NoteBook Pro 15 2020. The list has since expanded, and nine Xiaomi phones currently support the feature. However, it seems the MIUI+ support is still limited to Mi NoteBooks and Xiaomi phones running Snapdragon Chips. But the company going by the latest report will soon extend MIUI+ support to MacBooks and integrate it with MTK models.

The feature makes it possible to project the screen of the mobile phone to the computer. It supports functions like viewing mobile notifications, drag and drop transferring of files, two-way synchronization. But it seems the company will expand the features available in MIUI +to support initiating the computer camera to make a video call.
