Xiaomi took the wraps off its next-generation Android skin, MIUI 12, in China less than a month ago. It brings along a new polished UI, Mi Health, Super Wallpapers, and a slew of privacy enhancements. And we cannot forget about the redesigned iOS-like quick settings pane in MIUI 12.

As announced earlier last week, the Chinese giant took center stage today to debut the MIUI 12 software update for global users. The global ROM packs most of the features we have seen in the Chinese version. But more importantly, Xiaomi shared the global MIUI 12 update rollout schedule at the event.

So, we now know exactly when your favorite Mi, Redmi, or Poco smartphone will get the update in India. So, let's not waste any more time and take a look at the entire list of phones that will get the MIUI 12 update:

However, if you can't wait, Xiaomi will open up the MIUI 12 beta testing program for its global markets next week. You could jump into the Mi Community app and apply to be a part of the same. Until then, here's a list of Xiaomi that will get the MIUI 12 update and Poco phones it's time to rejoice.
