While all Redmi Note 11 devices come with MIUI 13 out of the box, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G surprisingly comes out of the box with MIUI 12.5! What kind of surprise is this Xiaomi?
The Redmi Note 11 Pro 4G and Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G shipped with MIUI 13 based on Android 11. Unfortunately, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G will ship with MIUI 12.5, which is based on Android 11. This switch to the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G portends severe news for the future. Even if we overlook the fact that it comes with Android 11, we can't ignore the fact that it comes with MIUI 12.5. Because it will be really negative news in two years. Users who intend to purchase the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G should be aware of this.
The Xiaomi Mi 9 Pro 5G has recently received the MIUI 13 update. However, the basic Mi 9 will not receive the MIUI 13 upgrade. When we looked into it, we discovered that the Mi 9 came with MIUI 10 out of the box, and the Mi 9 Pro 5G came with MIUI 11. Only the Mi 9 Pro 5G receives the MIUI 13 upgrade among Snapdragon 855 devices since it has the right to receive one more update. When we look at it today, we may apply the same policy. As a result, the Redmi Note 11 Pro may receive one more update than the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G.
This Xiaomi update strategy irritates people who want to pay more money and receive better smartphones. Hopefully, Xiaomi will avoid this problem and will be able to provide more information. Otherwise, Redmi consumers may be disappointed that their phones will be discontinued so soon.
