MIUI 13 Update Coming to Redmi Note 9, Redmi 9, Poco X2, Among Others: Report

MIUI 13 is Xiaomi’s next iteration of user interface and it is set to come to a number of smartphones including Redmi, Poco, and Blackshark phones. The update will be presented in the second quarter of 2021 (Q2 2021) according to a new a report citing a Super Moderator on Xiaomi Mi Community forum. However, this does not necessarily mean that the details are correct — the moderators won’t necessarily have access to this information. If true though, then the post has leaked the roadmap of phones that will get the update starting from June 2021. The list includes smartphones like Redmi Note 9, Poco X2 and Mi10 series.

As per the Mi Community Forum thread, which is now seems to be have removed but was accessed by Trak.in, “Super Moderator” with the name “Manwex” posted that the “MIUI 13 will be presented in Q2 2021”. The report also claims that Xiaomi is expected to announce the custom MIUI 13 beta version shortly. We have to take the information provided by the moderator with a pinch of salt because the accuracy of the source is questioned.

Interestingly, just after the release of MIUI 12 in April this year, the MIUI Research Team posted on Mi Community asking fans to participate in a MIUI 13 feature design survey. It could be taken as an indication that development of the next generation software has already begun. Every iteration of software brings an array of optimisations, animations, and customisations. The MIUI 13 will likely be rolled out for various Mi, Redmi, and Poco smartphones. Here is a list of smartphones that are claimed to get the MIUI 13 update.
