Up until now, Xiaomi hadn’t rolled-out the stable Android Oreo update to any of its smartphones running MIUI. The Xiaomi Mi A1 did receive the Android Oreo update in January, but that doesn’t count here as it is an Android One device instead of MIUI. The company doesn’t have a great track record when it comes to rolling out major Android version updates to older phones, although the situation is reversed when it comes to rolling out MIUI updates (for example, the Redmi 1s from 2014 has received the MIUI 9 update).
In December, Xiaomi started an official beta program for the Mi 6’s Android Oreo update. A month later, the company did the same for its other 2017 flagship smartphone, the Mi Mix 2, and released a beta Oreo ROM for the Mi 6. Now, it has finally released the official Android 8.0 Oreo-based MIUI 9.2.3.0 Global Stable ROM for the Mi 6.
As a reminder, the Mi 6 was Xiaomi’s flagship smartphone for the first half of 2017. It has a premium list of specifications including the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 system-on-chip, 6GB of RAM paired with 64/128GB of storage, a 5.15-inch Full HD (1920×1080) IPS display, 12MP+12MP wide-angle + “telephoto” rear cameras, an 8MP front camera, and a 3,350 mAh battery. The phone shipped with MIUI 8 on top of Android Nougat, and it recently received the MIUI 9.2 Global Stable update.
Here’s the changelog for the Android 8.0 Oreo-based MIUI 9.2.3.0 Global Stable update:
