The eagerly awaited MIUI 15, based on Android 14, is currently in the testing phase for these smartphones and is expected to be rolled out in the coming weeks. Furthermore, Xiaomi has officially confirmed that the MIUI 15 development version will resume on October 13.
For those unfamiliar, the MIUI development version is a testing iteration of MIUI that is made available to a limited number of users before the official release. It serves the purpose of identifying and rectifying bugs while also testing new features. Due to its experimental nature, the development version is less stable and is not recommended for everyday use. Conversely, the MIUI official version is the stable release designed and optimized for regular use by the general public.
