Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro MIUI 12 update rolls out in stable version; Mi 10 also gets it in Russia (Download link inside)

Xiaomi has initiated the second round of the MIUI 12 update rollout schedule. While many devices received the latest custom skin in the first round, more devices are slated to get it in the second round. Among them, the Redmi 6 Pro and Mi 10.

Now, it appears that the OEM is rolling out the MIUI 12 stable update to the Chinese Redmi 6 Pro and Russian Mi 10 variants.

Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro

Xiaomi is known for providing only one major OS updates to the Redmi devices. This means that the Redmi 6 Pro will not get another OS update as it has already received the Android 9 Pie update.

Also, the Global variant, which is known as Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite, is a part of the Android One program and has also received its two promised OS updates i.e. Android 9 Pie and Android 10 respectively.

Now, the Chinese Redmi 6 Pro variant is receiving the Android 9-based MIUI 12 stable update. As expected, the update brings a lot of new features to the device. Users can grab the update via OTA but if you want to flash it manually, we’ve got your back.
