The MIUI 13 update will only launch next month
Xiaomi has recently announced the new Xiaomi 12 Series, and while the device features high-end specifications, including the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, there’s bad news in terms of software. The new devices, both the standard and the Pro models, would run Android 11 when they launch later this week in China. That’s quite surprising given Android 12 is already rolling out to more and more devices out there, but Xiaomi only plans to begin the rollout of MIUI 13 next month. So if you buy the Xiaomi 12 right now, the device would come with Android 11 out of the box, while the Android 12-based MIUI 13 will land on the phone starting with January.
