The MIUI 13 update for eligible devices has been rolling out since January. The latest handsets to receive the fresh software are the international variants of Mi 11 Ultra and POCO X3 GT. The original Chinese version of the former phone was one of the first to get access, while the original model of the latter smartphone got the update only recently.

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra sold outside mainland China is the same as the one sold in the company’s home country. The MIUI 13 update is currently live for two international versions of the handset, namely EEA and Global. The new system update for these models arrives with build numbers 13.0.5.0.SKAEUXM and V13.0.2.0.SKAMIXM respectively.

On the other hand, the POCO X3 GT is nothing but a rebranded Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G. The MIUI 13 update for it is only available for the variant sold in Indonesia. The software update bears build number V13.0.1.0.SKPIDXM.

Apart from bringing new MIUI features, the latest OTA system update for the aforementioned smartphones also comes with Android 12. Hence, they are getting their first major MIUI and Android updates together.

With that being said, as usual, Xiaomi is seeding out the update in batches. Therefore, it will take some time to reach every user. We also expect the company to extend the availability of the update to more regional variants in the coming days.

Xiaomi has started rolling out MIUI 13 stable update for the first batch of eligible devices in China. The latest version of MIUI also brings along Android 12 for these smartphones and tablets. After Mi 11, Xiaomi Pad 5 series, and Redmi K40, the update is being seeded out for the rest of the original Mi 11 and Redmi K40 family, in addition to Xiaomi MIX 4.

The Chinese tech giant Xiaomi has recently begun to roll out MIUI stable update based on Android 12 for the following phones in its home country.

• Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra

  • MIUI 13 Stable: V13.0.5.0.SKACNXM
  • Region: China

• Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro

  • MIUI 13 Stable: V13.0.5.0.SKACNXM
  • Region: China

• Xiaomi MIX 4

  • MIUI 13 Stable: V13.0.2.0.SKMCNXM
  • Region: China

  • Region: China

• Redmi K40 Pro

  • MIUI 13 Stable: V13.0.5.0.SKKCNXM

Just like the previous devices, the newest update for the aforementioned handsets is only live for the beta testers. If these early adopters don’t face any issues, then the software will be rolled out to the general public by the end of January as scheduled.

We expect the international rollout to begin sometime later in Q1 2022. For the uninitiated, the Mi 11 Pro and the Xiaomi MIX 4 are not sold outside mainland China. On the other hand, the Redmi K40 Pro+ is known as Mi 11X Pro in India and Mi 11i elsewhere.

Back in July, Xiaomi started testing Android 12-based MIUI builds for some of its devices. Two months later, three of those handsets have now begun to receive the Android 12 software builds in the MIUI Closed Beta channel. These three phones are nothing but the Xiaomi Mi 11 series.

According to a report by ITHome, Xiaomi is pushing a new MIUI Closed Beta build for Mi 11, Mi 11 Pro, and Mi 11 Ultra in China. The said update comes with build number 21.9.17 and brings along Android 12.

It is the first-ever publicly available MIUI build based on Android 12. Unfortunately, it is only limited to three smartphones and one region (China) at the moment.

Having said that, don’t expect the latest version of Android to arrive on the international variants of the Mi 11 series anytime soon. Because the software has just entered the public testing phase.

For those unaware, Xiaomi is probably the only Android OEM known for releasing weekly MIUI Beta builds for its devices. New features are introduced in this channel and they slowly make their way to the Stable channel in China, followed by other regions.

Hence, though Android 12 has been now made available for Mi 11, Mi 11 Pro, and Mi 11 Ultra in the MIUI Beta channel, it will take some time(depends on issues) to reach the MIUI Stable channel.

Google has been rolling out Android 12 Beta builds for Pixels since May. Many partner OEMs have also released beta builds for some of their handsets. However, most of the software builds by partner OEMs are pure AOSP with some additions. But we all know that the final public release for these phones will come with the respective company’s Android skin. Hence, it is not surprising to learn that Xiaomi has started testing MIUI based on Android 12.

Xiaomi is part of the Android 12 Beta program. The company has released Android 12 Beta for four devices, namely Mi 11 Ultra, Mi 11, Mi 11X Pro, and Mi 11i. Now, the firm has begun to test MIUI based on the latest version of Android for some of its phones.

According to Xiaomiui (via PiunikaWeb), Xiaomi has started testing Android 12-based MIUI builds for the following smartphones.

• Mi 11 Ultra
• Mi 11 Pro
• Mi 10 Ultra
• Mi 10 Pro
• Mi 10
• Mi 10T Pro
• Mi 10T
• Redmi K30S Ultra

The firm started testing the upcoming version of Android with MIUI for the Mi 11 Ultra and the Mi 11 Pro last month itself. Anyway, the tests for the remaining handsets began only recently.

Unfortunately, it’s not known whether Xiaomi is working on Android 12 with MIUI 12.5 or MIUI 13. Hopefully, it’s the latter as users can get the next iteration of MIUI as well as Android together.
