Xiaomi announced MIUI 12 initially in China and even started rolling out beta builds to the eligible devices from the day of the conference itself. Later last month, the company held a separate global launch event and revealed supported internationally available devices. Now, as promised, the first batch of phones – Mi 9, Mi 9T, Mi 9T Pro, Redmi K20, and Redmi K20 Pro are receiving MIUI 12 Global Stable Beta update.

For the unaware, Xiaomi has a unique type of MIUI build known as Stable Beta. These builds can be only installed on devices with beta-authorized Mi account signed in.

Which means these builds are meant for beta testers chosen by the company before rolling out the update to the public. However, users can bypass this limitation if their device has an unlocked bootloader with custom recovery like TWRP installed.

In most cases, Xiaomi rolls out the same build as a final stable update to the public by removing the beta Mi account authorization server side. But if the early birds happen to find critical bugs, the company would release another stable beta build and the same process would repeat.

In simpler words, the MIUI 12 Global Stable Beta update, which is currently being rolled out to Mi 9, Mi 9T, Mi 9T Pro, Redmi K20, and Redmi K20 Pro cannot be installed by all users unless they have a custom recovery installed on their device.

Anyway, here’s the download link for the above-mentioned devices for interested users.
