Stable MIUI 11 Android 10 update for Redmi 8 (MIUI 11.0.1.0 QCNCNXM)

Xiaomi seems to be showing its entry level smartphones a whole lot of love this time around as the Redmi 8 has also started receiving the stable Google Android 10 device.

The Redmi 7a was the first entry level Xiaomi smartphone to get the Android 10 update and this was a couple of weeks ago. Now the same update has started trickling down to the Redmi 8 which was launched in 2019 with Android 9.0 Pie out of the box.

The new update is however still based on Xiaomi's MIUI 11 custom Android skin with a version number of 11.0.1.0 QCNCNXM. Included in this update is the June 2020 Google's Android security patch as well as a couple of bug fixes.

If you are a Redmi 8 user then you probably should have already started receiving the new Android 10 based MIUI 11 update with all the standard Android 10 features like system-wide dark mode, gesture navigation etc.
