Over a week ago, we reported that the Redmi Note 8T (aka Redmi Note 8 with NFC) started receiving the stable MIUI 11 update in Europe. However, it was not based on the latest version of Android i.e. the Android 10.
The update tagged along all the new and cool goodies from the 11th iteration of Xiaomi‘s custom UI, the MIUI. For specs buff, Redmi Note 8T packs in features like Snapdragon 665 SoC, 4,000 mAh battery, 3/4 GB of RAM, offers up to 128 GB of storage and houses a quad-camera setup.
Cut to now, in a recent turn of events, Xiaomi has re-released the MIUI 11 update for the Redmi Note 8T device in Europe. Notably, the update is still stuck with November 2019 security patchset and brings in a couple of other changes.
The update arrives with the version number V11.0.2.0 and weighs around 334 MB in size for those who have received the previous build while those who are still on MIUI 10 are getting 451 MB OTA.
Below is the official changelog along with the screenshot of the update prompt:
