Just a couple of days back, Xiaomi started rolling out the MIUI 12.5 update for the entry-level Redmi 8 and Redmi 8A in China. Now, this update is also available for Redmi 8A Dual alongside the former two devices in India.
The Redmi 8 series made its debut in the second half of 2019 with MIUI 10 based on Android 9.0 Pie. These handsets were updated to MIUI 11, MIUI 12, as well as Android 10. Now, they have also started receiving the MIUI 12.5 update.
The MIUI 12.5 update for Redmi 8, Redmi 8A, and Redmi 8A Dual in India comes with the following build numbers.
- Redmi 8 – V12.5.1.0.QCNINXM
- Redmi 8A – V12.5.1.0.QCPINXM
- Redmi 8A Dual – V12.5.1.0.QCQINXM
The latest software builds for these smartphones are in the ‘Stable Beta’ phase. This means like any other OTA system update, they are being rolled out in batches. Therefore, some users might take a longer time to receive the update than others.
At the end of the day, all the users of these phones in India and other regions should get the MIUI 12.5 update in the coming days. But unfortunately, these handsets may not be eligible for MIUI 13 as they have already reached the threshold of two MIUI updates and one Android update set by the company for its entry-level smartphones.
