The release date for MIUI 11 is still unknown but the day might be closer than we think. Today, the official MIUI account announced that the last MIUI 10 developer update will be released on August 30.
The official announcement revealed that there have been a total of 428 weekly updates since the first beta release back on August 16, 2010. The weekly updates bring new features and optimizations to each phone that is still supported.
According to the post, the last MIUI 10 developer update will arrive as version 9.8.29 and will be released on August 30.
MIUI 10 has brought a number of very useful features to Xiaomi phones and most of them have been based on AI. From Xiaomi’s Little Ants voice assistant to its AI bokeh effect that allowed phones with a single camera to take portrait photos to auto-detection of smart home appliances.
MIUI 11 is expected to bring more AI-based features. One of them leaked earlier this week, loosely translated to “Inter-finger call”, this feature allows the AI assistant to answer calls on behalf of the user. The conversation is transcribed for the user and suggested replies are presented. The user just has to select one of the replies and the assistant relays it to the caller by voice. The feature can be called Xiaomi’s take on Google Duplex. Unfortunately, this feature will most only be available in China.
