android 11 ?


Android 10 was released nearly a year ago, it was already out when the Redmi 8 was released and Xiaomi is only now getting around to updating our phone to it.
Judging by this we'll have to wait for about 8 months before any news on the Android 11 update and probably over a year if it even releases, from what we know now Redmi 8 will get Android 10, then MIUI 12 and that's it.
There's always hope for the custom rom support. It's not great but far better than some of the newer Xiaomi phones, especially the Redmi 9 and Redmi Note 9 with their MediaTek SoCs.
