The realme 7i is a cheaper version of the vanilla realme 7. The smartphone debuted with realme UI based on Android 10. The company released the Android 11-based realme UI 2.0 Early Access update for this handset in February. Now, three months later, the phone has started receiving the stable update.

OEMs have been rolling out Android 11 update to their eligible devices since late last year. But some companies have been struggling to deliver the update though they have a huge customer base and brand presence in multiple markets. Oujia brands OnePlus and realme are two such companies.

For those unaware, realme has been running the Android 11 (realme UI 2.0) beta program since September. But the brand has managed to provide the stable update to only a handful of devices.

The latest handset to join this elite list is the realme 7i. According to the official announcement post on realme Community, the Android 11 stable update for this smartphone arrives with firmware version RMX2103_C.05.

As per the brand, users should be on either of these three firmware builds to receive the realme UI 2 .0 update via OTA.

• RMX2103_A.41
• RMX2103_A.43
• RMX2103_A.47

If users are not satisfied with the realme UI 2.0 (Android 11) update on their realme 7i, then they can roll back to realme UI (Android 10) using the rollback package. However, this process will wipe the phone’s internal storage,

Chinese handset maker realme has been seeding out Android 11-based realme UI 2.0 builds to its smartphones for quite a while now. However, only one device (realme X50 Pro) has received the stable update so far. Whereas, others are still in beta and now, the company has started recruiting testers for one more model.

The latest device to join the realme UI 2.0 Early Access program is realme 7i. For those unaware, this handset is a toned-down version of the standard realme 7 powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 instead of MediaTek Helio G95.

Interested users of this phone can enroll in the Android 11-based realme UI 2.0 Early Access program by heading over to Settings > Software Update > Gear Icon > Trial Version > Apply Now and submit details.  However, the device should be on build number RMX2103PU_11.A.37 to detect the registration form.

Further, selected users will be getting the beta update via OTA in the coming days. They can roll back to the stable version if they want to but the process will wipe the phone’s internal storage. Also, once reverted, this unit cannot join the Early Acess program again.

That said, apart from realme 7i, realme 6i and realme narzo 10 should also receive Android 11 beta update this month, as per the schedule.
