Not so long ago, we brought you an unofficial list of smartphones that should get an update to Android 11. We write unofficial because Xiami has no official software update policy. By the way, developers Adam Jiang and Boqing Yang, who have been working on the MIUI 12 superstructure in the past, said the absence of official policy was due to unexpected software compatibility issues that may arise when developing new versions of the system.

However, this does not mean that Xiaomi does not deliver new updates for its devices regularly. The developers have revealed that the company’s internal rules are set so that Xiaomi wants to deliver 2 large operating system software, it means 2 Android updates and three major superstructure updates to each smartphone introduced. It means 3 updates of MIUI version.

Xiaomi is already testing Android 11 on several smartphone models

Xiaomi currently distributes Android 11 for the flagship smartphone in the global market, namely the Mi 10, Mi 10 Pro and Poco F2 Pro. However, he is also working on developing a new version of Android for other smartphone models. These include devices such as the Mi Note 10, Redmi K30, Poco X2, Mi 9T and others.
