Xiaomi has been steadily working on its Android 11 update while also improving the in-house custom skin i.e. MIUI 12.

The development of MIUI 12 beta has been on for quite some time while several Xiaomi devices have even received it based on Android 11.

Now, a new closed beta build recently arrived in China, bringing along several improvements to the MIUI Camera app.

The MIUI 12 beta update version 20.11.6 offers a new camera panel to Android 11 eligible devices while some devices get the “Beautify for video calls” option.

Basically, the latest update offers a redesigned camera panel UI to improve the accessibility along with some new options to enhance the user experience.
