Xiaomi has been on a roll with the MIUI 12 update rollout. The OEM has already pushed the MIUI 12 update to the Global and Chinese variants of its 2020 flagship, Xiaomi Mi 10. However, the Indian and Indonesian variants are yet to receive the stable MIUI 12 update.

The company is known for updating the Chinese variants of its devices first. And after some time, other regions start receiving the updates. Now, Xiaomi has started rolling out the stable MIUI 12 update to the European Mi 10 units.
