MIUI 9 Global Beta ROM Now Available On Mi 6 And Redmi Note 4/4X

Xiaomi has begun rolling out MIUI 9 Global Beta to the first batch of eligible devices — Xiaomi Mi 6 and Redmi Note 4/4X. There’s a couple of batches in row.

The Chinese phone maker announced MIUI 9 a few weeks back in China, of course with China-exclusive features like the universal image search, smart app launcher, and smart assistant. But there’s a lot to like in MIUI 9 Global Beta, too. Following is the changeling for build 7.8.10.

Up next in the second batch of MIUI 9 eligible devices, we have Mi MIX, Mi Note 2, Mi 5/5s/5s Plus, Mi Max/Max 2 and Redmi 4/4X. There’s a third batch, which includes most of other Xiaomi devices, as well yet with no information on release date.

The rollout is an OTA for users who’ve already been using MIUI 9 Beta ROM, while it’s a manual installation for stable build users. More importantly, manual installation of MIUI 9 Global Beta requires an unlocked bootloader.
