I understand that there's a reason for the delay, probably because of stability issues but it just feels like Xiaomi is picking the devices randomly for updates especially the Redmi series. I feel like there should be a pattern to how updates are being sent not random selection. For example now the Redmi Note 9 has received MIUI 12 while the Redmi Note 9s and Note 9 Pro hasn't and i wonder what should be the justification for such because left to me the Redmi Note 9s and Note 9 Pro are supposed to receive MIUI 12 before the Note 9

Like we keep saying, updates is not by seniority. It depends on the team handling the update and how stable it is. For instance Mi 9T Pro/Redmi K20 Pro got MIUI 12 before Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro.

If we follow seniority, should all other devices under Xiaomi who have stable update ready wait because Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro haven't gotten MIUI 12.

If your device has a stable build it is pushed out in phases the wider public release like the Mi 9T and just yesterday RN8 Pro.

Left for me I rather have a stable build than a bug filled build. Worse especially for device that the number of updates they will get will start getting reduced.

The last time my device got an update was MIUI 11 in late November 2019 but do I whine here everyday, it is also listed to receive MIUI 12 but I am still patient.

Does saying this make me an agent or paid promoter?

It will sanitize the thread

Why are you guys in a haste to receive update?

Are your devices not functioning well on the current version?
It all boils down to the users, some care about updates while some don't, every customer has a right to customer satisfaction and since Xiaomi were the ones who promised the update i don't see any problem in users making demands for it.

As for me i have started to care less about Android updates sef because we haven't received any huge change in Android OS since Android 7.1 all we get is updated emojis, new notification panel and gestures and the OS keep getting bigger that now you need at least 4gb RAM to enjoy the full Android experience.
Security patches are more important to me right now.

Funny thing is that after all the delay when the update is finally released it will still have bugs. Same thing they did with RN8 Pro, Chinese ROM received Android 10 around march but Global ROM didn't receive until June and when the update finally came for Global ROM there was issue with Auto Brightness and low volume during calls so what was the essence of the delay? Las las all of us go dey alright.
did u notice these bugs on your note 8 pro? I never had them on mine. Bug to to honest there can never be a 100% but free update,EVER!!. Even iPhones and pixel phones have had updates that brick devices and more.There's just no way to account for millions of devices but beta testing and wave updates at least help reduce the problems or help them find and fix bugs much more quickly.

This is why every user is different, just because you understand the way these things work doesn't mean others will be like you.
Some people whine about the slightest things on the phone, some of which are even their fault but they won't agree.
If you go to Gsmarena and read the comments section of your phone you'll be surprised at the kind of things people are complaining about and you'll start to wonder if it's not the same phone you are using.

Point is people will always have issues with their phones and if you try to help them out but they don't want to reason with you just leave them.

This Xiaomi new method of sellers not listing Chinese Exclusive devices on AliExpress just tire me.

Redmi 10X 5G/Pro - Not listed there, same thing with the Mi 10 youth and this new Redmi K30 Ultra and Mi 10 Ultra.

A big shout out to Omnivision for the big improvements they have made to their Camera Sensors. The Mi 10 Ultra(Main and I think Ultrawide), Mi 10 lite/Mi 10 youth, Redmi 10X 5G/Pro.

I used to have issues with the Selfie sensor they made for the RN5 series but all is good now.

Another people coming up is TCL. Produced the display for Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro and improved on it with the Mi 10 Ultra.

There was a bug when i updated to Android 10, the auto brightness stopped working and also the volume during calls was very low but they sent an update to fix it.
You might not notice the bug in an update if the bug is only on a particular feature that you probably don't use
often so you'd feel that the update doesn't have bugs.

I have received 2 updates since Android 10, the latest was MIUI 12 which a lot of people are still complaining about it having a lot of bugs but I'm yet to notice any of the bugs they have been complaining about.
