The Mi 6 is finally getting a stable Android Pie update. The 2017 flagship which launched with Android Nougat out of the box is the latest device to get a slice of Pie.
The phone got an update to Android Oreo last year and also got Xiaomi’s own MIUI 10 update but there were no plans to update it to Android Pie when Xiaomi released the list of devices getting Pie back in October 2018. It eventually got Android Pie beta in April (global version in June). It is nice to finally see it get a stable version of Android Pie beta.
The update is rolling out as version 10.4.1.0 to users already. As usual, it is rolling out gradually to users. If you do not wish to wait, you can download the full firmware file and manually install it by copying it into your phone’s root storage and choosing the update package when you opt for manual installation under System Update.
The Mi 6 has a 5.15-inch FHD display protected by Gorilla Glass 4. It has a Snapdragon 835 processor, up to 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. There are dual 12MP cameras on the back of the phone and an 8MP front-facing camera. It also has a front-mounted fingerprint scanner, stereo speakers, and a 3350mAh battery with support for Quick Charge 3.0.
Android Pie is definitely the last major OS update for the Mi 6 but it should still get updated to MIUI 11 later.
