Redmi Note 8

Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 8 Pro came out last year with Android 9, they recently started receiving the MIUI 12 update, which is based on Android 10. This should be their last Android OS update, but now it has been announced that they will receive the update to Android 11.

Redmi Note 8 and Note 8 Pro will unexpectedly receive Android 11

The source, referring to the Xiaomi and MIUI Telegram channel, reports that Xiaomi has already begun internal testing of Android 11 for the Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 8 Pro.

Usually, Redmi Note phones receive one Android operating system update and at least two MIUI updates. This means that the operating system updates should have ended on Android 10, however, it seems that Xiaomi has changed the policy, which is good news. Recently, many manufacturers of Android smartphones have been increasing the period of support for their devices with updates, so Xiaomi is unlikely to stay away from this trend.

So far, the update to Android 11 for Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 8 Pro does not have a release date, however, most likely it will happen as early as next year. At the moment, Xiaomi has higher priority models that have not yet been updated.

Next year, these smartphones should also receive the MIUI 13 user interface.
