Xiaomi launched the Mi 10i as a rebranded Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G in India in January. The device debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 10 despite releasing in early 2021. Now, months after its debut, the handset has finally started receiving the Android 11 update.

The Mi 10i sold in India is exactly the same as the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G available in India. This duo has another clone in the form of Mi 10T Lite with a 64MP primary camera instead of a 108MP sensor.

It is worth noting that the Mi 10T Lite was announced first. Hence, it was also the first to get the Android 11 update in February, followed by the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G in March. Now, the Mi 10i has also begun to receive the update.

The Xiaomi Mi 10i Android 11 update arrives with build number V12.0.2.0.RJSINXM and April 2021 security patches. The update is currently marked as ‘Stable Beta’. This means it is only available for a select few users as part of the batched rollout. Anyway, it should be seeded out to all the units in the coming days.

The next notable system update for the Mi 10i will be MIUI 12.5. But unfortunately, Xiaomi is yet to reveal when this update will be released for this smartphone.

Xiaomi launched the Mi 10T Lite alongside the Mi 10T and the Mi 10T Pro in late September. The handset debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 10. Now, months after its release, this device has finally started receiving the Android 11 update.

The Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite ships with two types of MIUI builds – Global and EEA. But currently, only the variant running the global build is receiving the Android 11 update.

Above all, the update with build number V12.0.2.0.RJSMIXM is currently in the ‘Stable Beta’ phase. Hence, it is being only seeded out to select users. If these early adopters don’ face any major issues, the availability of this update will be extended for more customers.

Similarly, Xiaomi should start delivering the Android 11 update not only to the EEA variant of Mi 10T Lite but also Mi 10i and Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G very soon.

That’s because the Redmi Note 9 Pro that debuted in late November 2020 in China is basically the Mi 10T Lite with a 108MP primary sensor. On the other hand, the Mi 10 that released in India last month is a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.

Hence, these three phones codenamed gauguin run the same MIUI build with regional tweaks. That said, going by Xiaomi’s update track record, this trio should get at least one more Android update and three MIUI updates.
