Xiaomi has confirmed that it will launch MIUI 12.5 globally on February 8. The MIUI 12.5 is based on Android 11 and debuted alongside the Mi 11 back in December 2020. In all likelihood, the Mi 11 global debut may also happen on the same day, though the company is yet to confirm that.
Xiaomi posted a picture revealing the launch date of the MIUI 12.5 on Facebook, but the said post was taken down shortly afterwards. The poster just reveals the launch date of February 8, asking users to stream the event on Facebook.
