These Redmi phones will not receive MIUI 12 update
Xiaomi started rolling out MIUI 12 for its smartphones earlier this year. It has now made some changes to the rollout schedule by removing four Redmi smartphones from the list.
Xiaomi will no longer roll out the latest MIUI 12 update for Redmi 7, Redmi Y3, Redmi 6A and Redmi 6. These phones were to receive the update in the second phase of the MIUI 12 rollout. The reason for removing these phones was “compatibility and performance issues,” Xiaomi explained in her blog post. Xiaomi informed users of this change through a Telegram group, Fone Arena reported.
Xiaomi had listed these four phones as well as the Redmi Note 7, Redmi Note 7 Pro, Poco F1 and Mi 10 for the rollout of MIUI 12. The rest of the phones have been updated to the latest version of MIUI 12. Xiaomi has launched MIUI 12 earlier this year in May, then it launched in India in August. It has since started the rollout of MIUI 12 on Redmi, Mi and Poco phones.
It has not been long since these phones were launched. Redmi 7 launched in March 2019 and Redmi Y3 the following month. Redmi 6A and Redmi 6 are slightly older, with both phones launching in June 2018.
Redmi 7 and Redmi Y3 only received MIUI 11 as both phones launched with MIUI 10. As for Redmi 6 and Redmi 6A, these phones launched with MIUI 9 and have been updated to MIUI 11. Xiaomi even provided updates to the operating system. for its older phones, so it’s surprising that the company doesn’t include slightly dated phones.
