Original story (published on November 10, 2020) follows:
Xiaomi might not be as fast as Google when it comes to pushing Android OS updates to its devices, but the company surely has come a long way.
Today, the Chinese vendor boasts quite a significant number of devices already on Android 11, be it in beta or stable version. The Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro, for instance, already bagged the beta stable version.
The Redmi K30 Pro, also known as Poco F2 Pro outside China, also has the beta stable version available for select users. There is a bunch of other devices already testing the firmware.
And going by the latest developments, the family of Xiaomi Redmi devices trialing Android 11 update is set to grow bigger with the addition of three new members.
In the release notes for MIUI 12 beta 20.11.10, Xiaomi has suspended the closed beta rollout for the Redmi K30 Ultra, Redmi 10X 5G and Redmi 10X Pro “Due to the major version upgrade of Android.”
Due to the major version upgrade of Android, Redmi 10X, Redmi 10X Pro, and Redmi K30 Ultra will be suspended for internal testing from 11.10, thank you for your understanding.
With the Redmi devices in question already running Android 10, the only other major Android OS update in sight is one that brings Android 11.
The likes of Redmi 10X and Redmi 10X Pro had reportedly started testing Android 11 update internally since September. With this development, it now spells some good news for public beta testers.
As for whether this Android 11 beta update will hit the Redmi K30 Ultra, Redmi 10X and Redmi 10X Pro later this week remains unknown, but as usual, we will be here to let you know about it.
Meanwhile, do feel free to keep an eye on our Xiaomi Android 11 update tracker to know when your device bags the update, beta or stable.
