Redmi Note series is probably the most popular smartphone lineup by Xiaomi in India. But unfortunately, it is not known for getting early access to updates. The older Redmi Note 8 Pro and the Redmi Note 9 Pro have started receiving the MIUI 12.5 update only now.

The last major update for the Redmi Note 8 Pro in India was MIUI 12 over a year ago. Similarly, Redmi Note 9 Pro got its last big update in the form of Android 11 in late 2020.

The two phones are now receiving the MIUI 12.5 update together in the country. The latest system update for the Redmi Note 8 Pro also brings along Android 11. However, the new build comes with July 2021 security patches instead of August 2021 like the Redmi Note 9 Pro.

The new software update for the Redmi Note 8 Pro and the Redmi Note 9 Pro in India bumps up the build numbers to V12.5.3.0.RGGINXM and V12.5.1.0.RJWINXM respectively.

Like any other OTA system update, the MIUI 12.5 update for these handsets is also being rolled out in batches. Hence, they might take some time to reach every user. But at the end of the day, everyone should be able to experience the new software in the coming days.
