A few days back, Xiaomi announced the all-new MIUI 13 software skin for its smartphones. The company confirmed that the first batch will get the update by the end of January and some devices like the Xiaomi Mi 11 and Xiaomi Pad 5 have already started receiving the stable update. Now, the Xiaomi Redmi K40 has received the MIUI 13 stable update in China.

The Redmi K40 was launched back in February with Android 11 in China and the phone’s new MIUI 13 update is based on the latest Android 12 operating system. As of now, the update is rolled out for the beta testers, but it will be available to the public in the coming days.

It has the codename “alioth” and has the version number V13.0.2.0. Similar to the Mi 11, the update for the Redmi K40 is also quite big. It has a total size of 4.5GB.

The update brings all the latest MIUI 13 features and also has the Android 12 features onboard. It adds new font, widgets, a couple of wallpapers, and privacy features. For those who are unaware, the new MIUI 13 focuses more on stability and optimization offering improved fluency of system apps by 20-26%. The third-party app fluency is increased by 15% to 53%.

We expect the update to arrive on other eligible devices in the coming days. If you want to check the list of supported devices do check the article below.

MIUI 13 could be rolled out for Xiaomi Mi 11 and Redmi K40 series on December 28

News surrounding MIUI 13 has been deeply fused with rumors, many of which have already turned out to be false. Take a report from last month, for example, that set the update’s launch date as December 16 – something that now appears to be false as there’s no major launch event planned on the day.

Another report from the same source (Xiaomiui) now claims that the launch date is actually December 28, with the Mi 11 and Redmi K40 series being the very first devices to get treated to the update on the same day.

While this again is unconfirmed and nothing but a rumor, it is still more solid than other potential release dates. This is because Xiaomi had launched MIUI 12.5 on the same day last year.

The report further states that both stable and beta builds for MIUI 13 will be introduced on the very same day, which is something that hasn’t happened since MIUI 11. Xiaomi has actually been internal testing stable builds of MIUI 13 for a few recent high-end devices for around a month, so it makes sense that they would be rolled out for all now.

Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra

The source has also intercepted a bit of data from Xiaomi’s servers showing that MIUI 13 V13.0.1.0 has been prepared for the Mi 11 and Redmi K40 series already. These builds with the same version number will likely be released on December 28.

Devices that Xiaomiui says will get MIUI 13 stable on December 28th include the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra, Mi 11, Redmi K40 Pro, and the Redmi K40 Pro+. Other phones like the Xiaomi Mi 10S, Mi 11 Lite 5G, Mi MIX 4, Redmi K40, Redmi K40 Gaming, and Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G might get updated to the same as well on that day.

Do keep in mind here that none of the information above has been officially confirmed so be sure to take it with a pinch of salt.
