Alongside the launch of the Redmi Note 8 and Note 8 Pro in India, Xiaomi has also doled out the details for when MIUI 11 will be available for its massive portfolio in India today. The company has revealed that a ‘total of 28 Xiaomi and Redmi phones’ will receive the MIUI 11 update over the next two months.

First off, Xiaomi has adopted a minimalist approach with MIUI 11. It has toned down its color scheme, introduced a new font called Milan Pro, and introduced the much-awaited dark theme with this update. The Always-on Display has received an overhaul with the MIUI 11 update and now lets you set dynamic clock styles, animated stickers, and well, personalized messages to set your device apart from others.

Mi Work

MIUI Work portfolio of apps have bagged an upgrade, with the Mi File Explorer will now show you file thumbnails and lets you view them within the app itself. Their document viewer has been updated to let you make minor changes to documents on the fly. Also, Xiaomi has added a “to-do and reminder feature” to its Tasks app and it syncs to your calendar as well. The best part – you can even make voice tasks.

Mi Life

Smartphones are a part and parcel of our lives – something we use all the time, so the MIUI 11 update also focused on three Mi Life features. The first is a step tracker that’s easily accessible from the App Vault on the homescreen.

Now that we have listed these features, you would be wondering when you will get #MIUI11 on your device. Here is the tentative schedule for #MIUI11 based on our current testing plan. pic.twitter.com/8ssASFLRAM
