POCOPHONE F1 aka POCO F1 is one of the most popular smartphones in recent years. It launched with MIUI 9 based on Android Oreo in 2018. It was later updated to MIUI 10 and MIUI 11. The underlying Android version was also updated to Android Pie as well as Android 10. Now, it has also begun to receive MIUI 12.
MIUI 12 is the latest version of Xiaomi’s mobile software. The company unveiled it back in April and since then, it has been rolling out beta and stable builds to a large number of eligible handsets worldwide.
Since POCO F1 is a two-year-old device, the update for it comes late. The MIUI builds are available in two flavors for this handset – Global and Russia. Currently, MIUI 12 update is only available in the former channel with build number V12.0.1.0.QEJMIXM. Xiaomi is yet to roll out the latter variant of this update.
The update is being seeded out to select users globally. It will be rolled out to more users in the coming days if the early adopters don’t face any issues .
It is worth noting that MIUI 12 could be the last major update for POCO F1 since it is not eligible for Android 11. But still, we are yet to see its direct successor, the so-called POCO F2.
