MIUI 9.5 Global is coming to more than 30 Xiaomi smartphones
Great news for fans!
Earlier this year, Xiaomi promised to bring the new MIUI 9 to 40 devices. Just two months after, they now have a new announcement that’ll surely bring joy to their fans.
More than 30 Xiaomi phones (both the Mi and Redmi series) will receive the latest MIUI 9.5 Global update starting this month.
The update might not be a big deal like an Oreo-based MIUI, but this shows Xiaomi’s commitment to software updates which is something some Android phone manufacturers seem to disregard. MIUI 9.5 is still based on Android 7.0 Nougat, brings security updates, introduces new notification features, and many more.
