Today was the day that Xiaomi announced MIUI 12 worldwide and therefore the global version. Yes, MIUI 12 Global is already a reality and we have the first details about devices, phases and dates. The company announced the customization layer a few weeks ago in China, but so far we knew nothing about ROM for the rest of the world. This global version comes with Google applications and services, something that ROM does not enjoy for China. If you have a Xiaomi mobile we tell you when you can update and on what approximate dates.
MIUI 12 Global Phase 1: end of June to few devices
Xiaomi has announced that MIUI 12 Global will be available outside of China in late June, a due date, more or less, one month. This will be phase 1 and they will update only a few devices from the company’s catalog, specifically 3 Xiaomi phones. They are as follows:
- Xiaomi Mi 9
- Xiaomi Mi 9T
- Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro
Yes, in the first phase they will only update these three terminals. We imagine that Xiaomi wants to do a little test for MIUI 12 Global stable . Yes, it is important to note that this update will be stable and not beta.

All these devices will update in phase 2 and will be able to take advantage of all the functions of MIUI 12 Global in a stable way. We will have to wait to know when this second phase of deployment begins. They will not update all in one day, most likely it will take several weeks to do so.
If there is any Xiaomi device that is not in either of the two lists, it is likely that it will update in a third phase, which would come much later, at the end of the year.
MIUI 12 Beta will be available to certain users next week
Xiaomi has announced that users outside of China will also enjoy a beta program. This program will start next week and we will have more news about it when the places open. It is probably a closed or semi-closed program, so we recommend you to be very attentive if you are interested in trying MIUI 12 Global Beta ahead of time.
At the moment we do not know which terminals will be able to access the beta, but surely the Xiaomi Mi 9, Mi 9T and Mi 9T Pro can. Maybe some more from the second update phase.
So now you know, if you have a Xiaomi mobile and you live outside of China, you can start receiving the update in late June or a little later. What phase have you had? Is your mobile not on the list? Tell us more in the comments or on social media!
