At an event in China, Xiaomi has announced some of their newest pieces of technology. These include the Xiaomi Mi MIX Alpha, their latest experimental, concept device with a display that wraps around the entire phone, the Xiaomi Mi 9 Pro 5G which serves as the company’s newest 5G flagship, and their newest fleet of Mi TVs with 4K displays. But one thing that they’ve also announced was their next leap in software. The company announced MIUI 11, the latest version of their Android skin, which brings with a slew of improvements, refinements, and new features compared to MIUI 10.
The newest Xiaomi software comes preinstalled in the Mi 9 Pro 5G as well as in the Mi MIX Alpha, but it is also set to roll out to many other devices across all smartphone ranges. If you’re interested in trying it out right now and you have a relatively recent device, you can download the beta MIUI 11 builds—based on both Android 7.1 through Android 10 depending on the device—for the devices listed below. These are all recovery ROMs, meaning that you can easily flash them using TWRP.
