Realme recently released the Android 13-based Realme UI 3.0 Open Beta builds for Realme 9 Pro and the Realme 9 Pro+. And now, the Realme 9i is also receiving the Open Beta program.

The Open Beta program is specifically for Indian users of the Realme 9i. To participate in the open beta testing of Android 13 on the Realme 9i, users need to make sure that their devices are running version RMX3612_11.C.03 or above.

Those meeting the criteria can head over to Settings > Software Update > Tap on the settings icon in the top right corner > Trial Version > Submit your details > Apply Now to apply for the Realme 9i 5G Android 13 Open Beta program. As it is an Open Beta program, you will most likely receive the update in a few days to try out Android 13 if your device meets the requirements. Additionally, Realme 9i 5G users that are on Android 13 Early Access are exempt from applying for this program.

In the event that they receive the Android 13 update, Realme has encouraged consumers to make a backup of their crucial data. In addition, the company has advised customers to check that they have at least 5GB of free internal storage and 60% of their battery before installing the Android 13 Open Beta firmware. Note that users who have rooted their devices are ineligible to participate in the program.

As it is a Beta build, and therefore can have stability issues and bugs, we recommend readers avoid installing it on their primary devices. In case you are unhappy with the Android 13 build and wish to go back to Android 12, Realme has also provided users the option to do so.

Realme recently commenced the Android 13-based Realme UI 3.0 open beta program for the Realme 9 Pro, and now, the Realme 9 Pro+ is also getting open beta access to the latest operating system. The device debuted back in February 2022 and is on its way to receiving its first major Android update.

Users interested in trying out the Realme UI 3.0 open beta build need to make sure that their Realme 9 Pro+ is running the firmware version RMX3392_11.A.12, RMX3392_11.A.13, or RMX3392_11.A.14. Once you have made sure that you are on the required version, you can navigate to Settings > Software Update menu and tap on the Settings icon in the top-right corner. After that, click on Trial version > Open Beta > Apply Now and submit the required details. You will receive the beta update if your application is approved.

It’s important to note that beta builds may contain flaws that degrade the user experience, thus they should be avoided on a primary device. The company has noted some of the common issues with the Realme UI 3.0 beta build on the Realme 9 Pro+.

Common Issues

• After the upgrade, it may take longer to boot for the first time, especially if there are many third-party applications on your phone.
• After the upgrade, in order to improve the system operation efficiency and eliminate potential safety risks, the system will perform a series of actions such as application adaptation, background optimization, and security scanning which may cause slight hanging and faster power consumption.

Recently, Realme commenced the Android 13-based Realme UI 3.0 early access program for the GT Neo 3T smartphone. Now, the other two devices in the series, namely the Realme GT Neo 3 and the GT Neo 3 150W have moved on to the open beta phase of Realme UI 3.0, indicating that they will soon be receiving the stable Android 13 update.

Users must sign up for the program if they want to experience the open beta update. Before installing the new update, users must adhere to a few criteria. The Realme GT Neo 3 and GT Neo 3 150W users must first update their smartphones to the necessary versions, RMX3561 11.A.15, RMX3561 11.A.16; RMX3563 11.A.15, RMX3563 11.A.16.

Once you are on the required version, you can proceed with the open beta update installation by navigating to Settings>Software Update>Tap the drop-down on the top right corner>Tap on Trial Version>Fill out the form and hit Apply Now.

If and when your application is accepted, a notification for the new beta update will be sent to you. Being a beta program, it is important to keep in mind that the update may contain bugs or that some apps may not function as intended. We, therefore, suggest our readers refrain from updating their primary phones with the beta version.

It is also advised to back up the data on your device before the update as updating to the Android 13 beta version and then rolling back to Android 12 will erase all the data on the smartphone.

• To prevent data loss, please backup your personal data before proceeding.

• The Open Beta versions may have an unpredictable impact on your phone and effect on daily use.
• Please ensure that the available phone storage is more than 5GB. Otherwise, there will be a risk of update failure (To check the phone storage head to Settings > Additional Settings > Storage).

Ahead of Christmas, Realme kickstarted Realme UI 3.0 Early Access program for the Realme 8 Pro. Two months later, the device has been now promoted to the Open Beta program. Let’s check out how users can enroll in this initiative.

According to the official announcement post on Realme Community, anyone with the Realme 8 Pro can register for the Android 12-based Realme UI 3.0 Open Beta program. The only requirement is that the device should be on firmware version RMX3081_11.A.45.

All they have to do is go to Settings > Software Update > Gear Icon > Trial Version > Submit Details > Apply Now. Applicants who get selected will receive the beta software via OTA.

Realme says that only limited seats are allocated. Therefore, interested users are advised to apply as soon as possible. As far as Early Access members are concerned, they don’t need to register as they will receive the Open Beta update directly via OTA.

The Realme 8 Pro is not the only smartphone from the brand to get Realme UI 3.0 Open Beta update recently. Last week, the company started releasing the same update for Realme GT Neo2, Realme GT Master Edition, and Realme X7 Max.

Hence, these four handsets will be likely promoted to Realme UI 3.0 Stable based on Android 12 at around the same time. Hopefully, that happens sooner than later.
