Xiaomi is yet to deliver the Android 12 update for some of its devices though Android 13 is out for more than 2 months. Three such handsets have started receiving the much-awaited update in India.
The Chinese smartphone maker has begun to roll out last year’s Android update for the Redmi Note 9 Pro, Redmi Note 9 Pro Max, and Poco M2 Pro in its largest market outside mainland China.
The Android 12 update for the Pro models of Redmi Note 9 and Poco M2 arrive with MIUI 13 in India. Despite releasing in October, the software builds come with August 2022 security patches.
Most importantly, the update is currently limited to Mi Pilot testers. It should make its way to regular users in the coming days and weeks.
The update should enter the ‘Stable Beta’ phase next, followed by ‘Stable’. Hence, most users will likely get access to it by next month.
The Android 12-based MIUI 13 update is probably the last major software update for Redmi Note 9 Pro, Redmi Note 9 Pro Max, and Poco M2 Pro. These phones may only receive necessary security updates going forward.
All three devices were launched in 2020. They share a similar design and only differ in terms of certain features.
