Android 12-based MIUI 14 update is now rolling out to these Redmi phones
Xiaomi’s MIUI 14 is rolling out to two more Redmi phones, bringing the latest security patches, latest firmware version and more. The latest update package, said to be based on Android 12, is rolling out to the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G and comes in at 4.05GB in size. Users can download it via the MIUI downloader. The update also brings the March 2023 security patch. The Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G were launched earlier this year in January and ran MIUI 13 out-of-the-box.
MIUI India has announced the rollout of MIUI 14 for Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G via his Twitter account. According to the details shared by Xiaomiui, the MIUI 14 update for Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G is based on Android 12 and not Android 13.
Several users went to Twitter complaining that the update doesn’t bring the phone to the latest version of Android. The Redmi Note 12 series not getting the Android 13 update is especially confusing considering both the Redmi Note 10 5G and Redmi Note 11 SE received the Android 13-based MIUI 14 update only last month.
The latest OS update for the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G and Note 12 Pro+ 5G brings a new UI, super icons on the home screen, animal widgets, quick app launch, improved system performance, and improved battery life.
The update is also said to bring the latest firmware version and security patches to both devices. MIUI 14 update on Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G comes with build number 14.0.2.0.SMOINXM, according to a screenshot shared by a user.
The latest update can be downloaded via MIUI downloader. Notably, the latest OS update will be available first for the users who have enrolled in the Mi Pilots program and will soon be rolled out to a wider user base.
The Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G were launched in India in January. The phones come with AMOLED displays with up to 120Hz refresh rate. The devices are powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 1080 SoC, coupled with up to 12GB of LPDDR4X RAM and a Mali-G68 GPU.
