However, some of the Xiaomi devices are currently receiving the firmware update of MIUI 9 weeks before the official release. The update is said to come with a lot significant OS improvements and UI changes and the Redmi Note 4 is the first device to receive it.
The MIUI 9 update is based on the latest version of Android Nougat 7.0 along with the latest security patches.
