A new update is rolling out to the Redmi Go that brings May’s security patch to the device. The update already arrived on my device today and it weighs in at about 105MB.
This marks the second security update I have received since I got my hands on the phone. The Redmi Go arrived with Android 8.1 Oreo (Go edition) with January’s security patch. An update along with February’s security patch was available after setup and now it has received May’s security patch.
[envira-gallery id=”255911″]It appears Redmi will release security updates every three months for the device. However, there is still no news of an update to Android Pie (Go Edition).
The Redmi Go has a 5.0-inch HD display, a Snapdragon 425 processor and 1 GB of RAM. Initially, it was only available with 8GB of storage but Redmi announced a 16GB version for the Indian market yesterday. We don’t know if this new version will eventually replace the 8GB version just as the Redmi Note 7S will replace the Redmi Note 7 in India. There is also no news of the new storage variant being available outside India.
The rest of the specs are an 8MP rear camera, a 5MP selfie camera, a 3.5mm audio jack, a MicroUSB port, dual SIM slots, a dedicated MicroSD card slot, and a 3000mAh battery.
