MIUI 13 is currently the newest version of Xiaomi’s mobile operating system. The company has been rolling it out to eligible devices since January. The latest smartphones to receive it are Mi 10 Ultra, Redmi Note 10 5G, and Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.

Xiaomi has started seeding MIUI 13 update based on Android 12 for the following handsets in its home country China.

• Mi 10 Ultra – V13.0.1.0.SJJCNXM
• Redmi Note 10 5G – V13.0.3.0.SKSCNXM
• Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G – V13.0.3.0.SJSCNXM

Like any other OTA software update, this update is also being rolled out in batches. Hence, some units may receive it earlier, while others will take time.

Further, apart from Mi 10 Ultra, the other two phones made their way outside China. The Redmi Note 10 5G goes by the name of Redmi Note 10T 5G in international markets. At the same time, the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G is known as Mi 10i 5G and Mi 10T Lite 5G.

These non-Chinese versions of the aforementioned smartphones should also get access to the Android 12-baed MIUI 13 update in the near future. We can expect the rollout to finish for all the variants in a month or two.

If you happen to own any of the above-listed original Chinese models and have received the update, then do let us know your experience in the comment section below.

Android custom ROMs aren’t popular as they once were but continue to be a great alternative for those tired of their bloatware-infested, slow, and dated stock software. One of the most popular names in the game is LineageOS, mainly because of its stability and extensive device support. The custom ROM hit version 18.1 (based on Android 11) last year with support for over 60 devices and has been expanding its roster ever since.

The latest additions to the officially supported LineageOS 18.1 devices list include the following, and you can download their respective latest builds by clicking on their codenames (via Android Police).

• OnePlus 9 (lemonade)
• Mi 10T Lite/Mi 10i/Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G (gauguin)
• Mi 10 Lite 5G (monet)
• Asus ZenFone Max M1 (X00P)

While the OnePlus 9 has already received OxygenOS 12 based on Android 12, the update hasn’t gone down well with everyone since it’s based on ColorOS. LineageOS 18.1 will thus serve as a great replacement.

Both Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite and Mi 10 Lite 5G currently run Android 11 layered with MIUI atop. The heavily-skinned software has always been a hit or miss with users, and those looking for something lighter would love LineageOS 18.1.

The Asus ZenFone Max M1 no longer receives updates and is still stuck on Android 9 following a failed Android 10 beta program. It already has extensive custom ROM developer support and it’s great to see another gem added to its roster.

Additionally, Asus ROG Phone 2 and ZenFone 6 have been dropped from LineageOS support, meaning the duo will no longer be receiving new official builds.

Xiaomi‘s Redmi Note 9 series was slated to be discontinued after November 11, aka the Double 11 festival, but now, as the Double 12 festival came and went, the brand is still selling the device.

Earlier in November, Lu Weibing, President of Xiaomi Group China and GM of the Redmi brand, posted on Weibo announcing that the Redmi Note 9 5G will be delisted in China after the Double 11 sale. He further added that the smartphone will be replaced by the Redmi Note 10 and Note 11 series. This course of action was expected to be decided upon so that the previous generation Note 9-series doesn’t eat up the market share of the newer Redmi Note 10 and Note 11 series devices.

However, the Double 11 sale came and went, and the Redmi Note 9 devices were still on sale. At this point, the Chinese media claimed that the phones would be available for purchase till 12/12, aka the Double 12 shopping festival, which will mark its last day on market listings. That too has come and gone, but the Redmi Note 9 and the Redmi Note 9 Pro still remain on sale. Though Xiaomi is yet to issue any official comments, there could be several reasons causing this.

The first thing that comes to mind is over-production. It may be that Xiaomi produced an excessive number of Note 9 series devices that they could not sell in the predicted timeframe. This could be attributed to the massive success garnered by its predecessor, the Redmi Note 8 series, which led the company to increase production of the follow-up, the Redmi Note 9.

Another reason for the continued sale of the Redmi Note 9 series could be due to the devices not selling as much compared to their predecessors or the next-gen Redmi Note 10, leaving a lot of unsold stock.

Whatever the case might be, the Note 9 series is still being sold in China for a discounted price of 1149 yuan ($180) for the Note 9 5G and 1499 yuan ($235) for the Note 9 Pro 5G variant. So if you are in China, grab one before they run out!

The post Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 5G yet to be discontinued, still available in China appeared first on Gizmochina.

Last month, Xiaomi revealed that it will start rolling out the MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update for the Redmi Note series in October. As promised, the company had already begun to seed the update ahead of schedule last week. Today, two more devices, namely Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G get access to the latest version of MIUI.

Xiaomi has started rolling out MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update for the Redmi Note 8 and the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G in China. The new system update for these handsets arrives with the following build numbers.

• Redmi Note 8 – V12.5.2.0.RCOCNXM
• Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G – V12.5.4.0.RJSCNXM

The Remi Note 8 is known by the same name outside mainland China. On the other hand, the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G is sold as Mi 10i 5G and Mi 10T Lite 5G in some markets.

These international variants of the above-listed smartphones should also get the MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update. But we cannot tell for sure when these phones will be receiving the update.

Anyway, whenever the latest MIUI hits these devices, it will be rolled out in batches. Even in China, the update is currently under a batched rollout.

Xiaomi unveiled MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition at the Xiaomi MIX 4 launch event. Within one and a half months, the company has finished the rollout of this software to the first batch of eligible devices in China. Hence, it has now announced its plans for the second batch.

According to the official announcement post on Xiaomi Community China, a total of 7 smartphones are part of the second batch to receive the MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update. Almost all of these handsets are Redmi Note models, except for one.

MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition Second Batch Devices

• Redmi Note 8
• Redmi Note 9 4G
• Redmi Note 9 5G
• Redmi Note 10 5G
• Xiaomi Mi 10 Youth Edition
• Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G
• Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G

The above-listed phones are scheduled to start receiving ‘Stable Beta’ builds from October 8. If it all goes well, the rollout for all users could happen by the end of next month itself.

Having said that, the firm does say that the update rollout plan may change due to various factors. But at the end of the day, the handsets mentioned above should get the latest version of MIUI sooner or later.

On the other hand, all other smartphone brands are set to release a new version of their mobile software based on Android 12. However, Xiaomi is yet to announce anything regarding it.

The post Redmi Note series to get MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update in October appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G will be getting a successor in the form of the Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G on May 26. Ahead of it, Xiaomi is updating the older device to the latest version of MIUI. In other words, the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G has started receiving the MIUI 12.5 update.

The Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G launched in late November 2020 with MIUI 12 based on Android 10. The phone was updated to Android 11 at the end of March 2021. Now, two months later, Xiaomi, the parent company of Redmi is rolling out MIUI 12.5 update for this handset.

The Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G MIUI 12.5 update arrives with build number V12.5.2.0.RJSCNXM. Just like any other new MIUI public release, this build is currently in the ‘Stable Beta’ phase. 

In simpler words, the new software build is being seeded out in batches. Hence, at the moment, the latest system update is only available for a select few users. But it should be available for everyone in the coming days.

That said, the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G is sold as Mi 10i in India. The smartphone is also known as Mi 10T Lite (64MP primary camera instead of 108MP) in other markets. Therefore, these two phones could also get the MIUI 12.5 update in near future.

The post Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G gets MIUI 12.5 update appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G as a China-exclusive smartphone in late November 2020. The phone debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 10. Now, four months after its release, this handset has started receiving the much-awaited Android 11 update.

The Android 11 update for the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G comes with build number V12.0.2.0.RJSCNXM. It is currently in the Stable Beta phase.

In other words, this update is only available for a select few users. By limiting the rollout, Xiaomi can avoid any catastrophe if there are issues with the build. Anyway, all units should get this update in the coming days.

Although the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G is only available in China, this phone is sold with different names with some tweaks in certain regions. In India, this very same smartphone without NFC is called Mi 10i. Whereas, in Europe, this device with a 64MP primary camera (instead of 108MP) is called Mi 10T Lite.

All three handsets run near-identical MIUI build with some minor changes. The Mi 10T Lite was the first to get the Android 11 update in February. Now, the update is also available for the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.

Hence, the Mi 10i sold in India should be the next to get the Android 11 update. That said, all these three devices are also eligible for MIUI 12.5 update.

The post Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G gets Android 11 update, Mi 10i could be next in line appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi launched the Mi 10T Lite alongside the Mi 10T and the Mi 10T Pro in late September. The handset debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 10. Now, months after its release, this device has finally started receiving the Android 11 update.

The Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite ships with two types of MIUI builds – Global and EEA. But currently, only the variant running the global build is receiving the Android 11 update.

Above all, the update with build number V12.0.2.0.RJSMIXM is currently in the ‘Stable Beta’ phase. Hence, it is being only seeded out to select users. If these early adopters don’ face any major issues, the availability of this update will be extended for more customers.

Similarly, Xiaomi should start delivering the Android 11 update not only to the EEA variant of Mi 10T Lite but also Mi 10i and Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G very soon.

That’s because the Redmi Note 9 Pro that debuted in late November 2020 in China is basically the Mi 10T Lite with a 108MP primary sensor. On the other hand, the Mi 10 that released in India last month is a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.

Hence, these three phones codenamed gauguin run the same MIUI build with regional tweaks. That said, going by Xiaomi’s update track record, this trio should get at least one more Android update and three MIUI updates.

Although Xiaomi sells expensive smartphones, the company’s cheaper handsets are popular worldwide. In fact, in India. Xiaomi is known as Redmi among commoners, thanks to value for money phones like Redmi A series, Redmi number series, and Redmi Note series. The latter series has now achieved a huge milestone, as per Xiaomi.

Yesterday, ahead of the Mi 11 global launch event, Xiaomi India announced a brag-worthy achievement on its various social media handles.

The Chinese smartphone maker revealed that it has shipped over 200 million units of Redmi Note series phones globally to date. This data is sourced from the firm’s own ‘Xiaomi Data Center’.

It is not surprising to learn that the global shipments of the Redmi Note series have exceeded 200 million units since its inception. This series has been the heart of Xiaomi’s product lineup ever since it was introduced.

Redmi Notes have been unbeatable in their price segment for a very long time. However, that began to change when realme entered the scene. But being an established product lineup, they are still as popular as they were before.

That said, Xiaomi is known for announcing its milestones ahead of releasing new devices. Hence, we think the Redmi Note 10 series is just around the corner. The upcoming series is reported to include two models, namely Redmi Note 10 and Redmi Note 10 Pro. As of now, we are only aware of the storage configurations and color variants of these handsets.

At the end of last month, Redmi, the sub-brand of Xiaomi launched Redmi Note 9 series in China. The series consists of three smartphones and these devices have been on sale for the past 13 days. Within this period, the company managed to sell 1 million units.

Xiaomi initially debuted the Redmi Note 9 series earlier this year in India. But the Redmi Note 9 models launched in China are different devices altogether. This series includes two 5G phones (Redmi Note 9 5G, Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G) and a single 4G handset (Redmi Note 9 4G).

Now, less than two weeks (13 days to be exact) from them being going on sale, Redmi accomplished to sell over 1 million units of these smartphones. The brand revealed its new achievement on Weibo.

In case you do not know, Xiaomi’s Redmi number, Redmi A, and Redmi Note series of handsets have always been global bestsellers. For instance, the company has sold over 140 million units of Redmi Notes worldwide as of November. These phones are popular because of the value they offer for the price.

That said, although the new Redmi Note 9 series is exclusive to China, the same phones are expected to release with different branding in global markets. The Pro variant is already available in Europe as Mi 10T Lite with a 64MP primary camera. This handset will be also launching as Mi 10i in India. Similarly, the 4G model will soon go official as Redmi 9 Power and Redmi 9T with an additional camera.

Despite the U.S. ban and the lower amount of sales this year, ZTE does not give up. Next year it will unite all of its brands (ZTE, Nubia, and Red Magic), and a few days ago it released a new upper-midrange phone: the Blade 20 Pro 5G. The handset is offered at a very interesting price and, as its name suggests, it carries the support to 5G connectivity. In order to establish if it is among the best 5G alternatives of the moment for those who have a low budget, we decided to compare it to the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G and the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G vs ZTE Blade 20 Pro 5G vs Motorola Moto G 5G Plus

Design

A great affordable phone in terms of design is the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G. It is not the most compact phone of the trio, but it has a glass back protected by Gorilla Glass 5, so you actually get a better build quality. Further, it is one of the few budget phones with the IP53 certification which guarantees dust resistance and protection against splashes, besides a water-repellent coating. The Motorola Moto G 5G Plus is water-repellent too, but unfortunately, it does not offer premium materials. But the ZTE Blade 20 Pro 5G is my favorite one because of its curved display, compact body, thin and lightweight design.

Display

If you want the best image quality, go for the ZTE Blade 20 Pro 5G without thinking twice. Unfortunately, it does not have a high refresh rate, but it is the only one offering an AMOLED panel. This curved display has very good colors and high visibility. Further, it has an in-display fingerprint scanner. If we exclude the ZTE Blade 20 Pro 5G, the best one is the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G providing a high 120 Hz refresh rate and the HDR10 certification. The Moto G 5G Plus has a 90 Hz IPS display with HDR10, still a good alternative. An important thing to consider is the fact that Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G has stereo speakers and provides a better audio experience.

Hardware/Software

The ZTE Blade 20 Pro 5G has the most powerful SoC: we are talking about the Snapdragon 765G running at a 2.4 GHz frequency and paired with 8 GB of RAM. Right after, we got the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus with the vanilla Snapdragon 765: it is almost identical to the Snapdragon 765G, but the GPU is weaker (the G stands for gaming). The Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G is slightly inferior as it sports a Snapdragon 750G chipset, but it has a great UFS 2.2 internal storage which can actually be faster than UFS 2.1 found on its two rivals. The whole trio of phones is based on Android 10.

Camera

The most advanced camera phone here is the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G because it sports a better main camera. We are referring to a 108 MP main sensor with an f/1.8 aperture providing a better photo quality. The Moto G 5G Plus offers better front cameras: you get a dual snapper with a 16 MP main camera and an additional 8 MP ultrawide sensor. The ZTE Blade 20 Pro 5G has better rear cameras than Motorola Moto G 5G Plus, but it is inferior if compared to the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G.

Battery

The longest battery life is offered by the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus because it has a bigger 5000 mAh battery. But the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G is still an awesome battery phone since it sports a 4820 mAh battery. Further, it charges faster thanks to its 33W power. Unfortunately, you get just 4000 mAh and an average battery life with the ZTE Blade 20 Pro 5G: it is not the best option for you if you are looking for a battery phone.

Price

ZTE still did not reveal the price and the availability of the Blade 20 Pro 5G. Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G hitten the shelves in China with a €163/$197 starting price, while you can actually find the Motorola Moto G 5G Plus globally for less than €250/$300. If it was not for the smaller battery, the ZTE Blade 20 Pro 5G would be a superior phone from almost every point of view. It has a better display and superior hardware, while the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G offers better cameras. The Motorola Moto G 5G Plus packs a bigger battery, but there is no reason to go for it instead of choosing the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G if the prices are similar.

One year ago it was almost impossible to find an affordable 5G phone in several countries. But now, midrange 5G phones are all around the place and they are becoming every day more affordable. Now, even the Redmi series contains 5G phones. The latest ones are the Redmi Note 9 5G and the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G. After comparing the vanilla variant to Realme 7 5G and Moto G 5G, we decided to compare the Note 9 Pro 5G with the other devices sold in the same price range. The latest 5G phones offered at similar prices are the OnePlus Nord N10 5G and the Realme Q2 Pro, and this is a comparison between their specifications.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G vs OnePlus Nord N10 5G vs Realme Q2 Pro

Design

If I had to judge the design of these handsets, I would say the Realme Q2 Pro is the best one. It lacks the glass back found on the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G, but it has a less invasive camera module, it is lighter and it is even more compact and thinner. But with the Note 9 Pro 5G, you actually get the best build quality. Besides the glass back, the handset also offers the IP53 certification making it splash resistant and dust resistant. It has a water-repellent body and even the Gorilla Glass 5 protection for both the front glass and the rear glass.

Display

Even when it comes to the display, I would choose the Realme Q2 Pro. It is the only device of this comparison to feature a Super AMOLED display and it can show more vibrant colors, as well as very deep blacks. Further, with the Realme Q2 Pro, you get an in-display fingerprint scanner which is definitely more comfortable than the rear-mounted and side-mounted fingerprint reader you get with Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G and OnePlus Nord N10 5G. The second place in the display ranking goes to the Note 9 Pro 5G featuring an IPS panel with a 120 Hz refresh rate and the HDR10+ certification. OnePlus Nord N10 5G has an average IPS display with 90 Hz refresh rate.

Hardware/Software

The most advanced and most appreciated hardware department is offered by the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G which is fueled by the Snapdragon 750G mobile platform paired with up to 8 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 2.2 internal storage. But its two rivals are not far away: they provide more or less the same performance with their Snapdragon 690 5G and Dimensity 800U chipset paired with up to 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of UFS 2.1 storage. All run Android 10 out of the box.

Camera

The most stunning camera is offered by the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G: you get the same 108 MP camera sensor found on the Xiaomi Mi 10, but it lacks OIS. The secondary sensors are the same on all of these devices: an 8 MP ultrawide lens and a pair of 2 MP sensor for macro and depth. But the main camera sensor changes: Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G gets the best one, followed by the OnePlus Nord N10 5G with a 64 MP camera. The Realme Q2 Pro has a lower-end 48 MP sensor, but you do not get huge differences in terms of photo quality if you compare it to the OnePlus Nord N10 5G.

Battery

The Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G has the biggest battery with a capacity of 4820 mAh: if you do not use the maximum refresh rate, you get a way longer battery life with this handset. But OnePlus Nord N10 5G and Realme Q2 Pro are still good battery phones with their 4300 mAh units. With Realme Q2 Pro you get the amazing 65W fast charging technology found on OPPO and Realme flagships allowing you to charge the phone a lot faster. With Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G and OnePlus Nord N10 5G, you only get 33W and 30W powers, respectively.

Price

Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G in China with a starting price of about $330/€272, while Realme Q2 Pro is priced at about $320/€265 in its base variant. The OnePlus Nord N10 5G actually sells for less than $320/€265 in China, but it costs a bit more in the global market. We do not see any reason to go for the OnePlus Nord N10 5G. The Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G offers the most advanced camera, great build quality, slightly better hardware department (with Snapdragon 750G and UFS 2.2 storage), and a bigger battery, while the advantages of the Realme Q2 Pro are mainly its Super AMOLED display and 65W fast charging. Which one would you pick?

The Chinese tech giant Xiaomi has recently unveiled three new phones in the Redmi Note 9 series, with one of them being, Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G. Despite its recent launch, this device is already up for pre-orders at Giztop for just $269. The phone boasts upgraded specs and supports ultra-fast 5G connectivity.

Precisely, 5G and Camera are expected to be the big upgrades for the Note 9 series in China. As usual, you can expect 2020 hype-trains like the high-refresh-rate screens, bigger camera sensors, faster charging, at least on the higher variant.

Redmi Note9 Pro 5G Specifications(Expected)

The highest variant of the series is likely the Redmi Note9 Pro 5G(M2007J17C). Earlier leaks said that the device will be a tweaked version of the Xiaomi Mi 10T-Lite. Accordingly, Redmi’s official teaser images show a similar design with Mi 10T Lite’s Rose Gold Beach, Atlantic Blue, and Pearl Grey colors.

The Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G will likely feature a 6.67-inch IPS LCD FHD+ 120Hz display, Snapdragon 750G chipset, a 4,820mAh battery with 33W fast charging.  Further TENAA listings also reveal that the device will measure 165.4 x 76.9 x 9mm and weigh 214.5 grams.

However, the significant difference is said to be the main camera. It is expected to the first Redmi smartphone to sport a 108MP camera sensor instead of 64MP on the Mi 10T Lite. For Selfies, it will likely have a 16MP sensor under the centered punch-hole. Other features likely are 6/8/12GB RAM, 64/128/256GB storage, stereo speakers, 3.5mm audio jack, NFC, IR blaster, and Z-axis linear motor.

Redmi is all set to take off covers from the Redmi Note 9 5G lineup on Thursday. Various reports have claimed that the Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite will be rebadged as the Redmi Note 9 5G Pro. However, only the noticeable difference between the two phones is that the Mi 10T Lite has a 64-megapixel main camera, whereas the Redmi phone is expected to flaunt a 108-megapixel sensor. A Chinese tipster took to Weibo to reveal a few details of the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G’s rear cameras. In addition, the Redmi General Manager has confirmed that the Snapdragon 750G will be powering the smartphone.

For the unawares, the quad-camera system of the Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite has a 64-megpaixel main camera, a 120-degree 8-megapixel ultrawide lens, a 2-megapixel macro lens, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. According to the tipster, the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G’s rear camera system has a 108-megapixel primary shooter, a superwide lens, a telephoto snapper, and a macro lens.

He added that the specifications of the other sensors are not that good, but they are relatively thin and cheap. Hence, it appears that the phone may borrow its superwide lens, telephoto sensor, and macro lens from the Mi 10T Lite. While Weibing did not specifically mention which of the Note 9 5G series phone has the Snapdragon 750G, it is quite evident that the Note 9 Pro 5G will feature it.

The above-shown poster reveals that the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G has a punch-hole LCD screen that offers 120Hz refresh rate, a 4,820mAh battery with 33W rapid charging support,  dual speakers with Hi-Res Audio support, a 3.5mm audio jack, NFC, Z-axis linear motor, and an IR blaster.
