Xiaomi, in a couple of weeks, has rolled out the Android 11-based MIUI 12 update to a bunch of phones in its stables. The POCO F2 Pro was among the first few to receive the update before it extended to high mid-range phones. That saw the Redmi Note 9 Pro received the Android 11 update but still under testing as more people are yet to receive the update. But unlike others, the POCO F2 Pro has already received more than two Android 11 builds, and this current one should be the fourth build aimed at global users. The new Android…

Unfortunately, no update came for the Redmi 5 Plus, and just yesterday, the MIUI 12 update…

On December 31, Xiaomi started rolling out a stable Android 11 update to the Mi A3 users. What was expected to be a perfect Christmas gift for the device users turned into chaos. Naturally, Xiaomi Android One updates are always a mess, especially the OS upgrades, but the recent one was the height of it all.
