Xiaomi launches Android Oreo beta program for Mi Mix 2 users

Xiaomi has launched the Android Oreo-based MIUI 9 beta program for the users who have purchased Mix Mi 2 . The company has given out details about the enrollment process for interested beta testers on the official MIUI forums.

According to the post on the forum , the company stated that this is a closed beta test. This means only a select number of users will be allowed to enroll and install the Android Oreo-based ROM. This approach is different from the route companies like OnePlus, Essential and even Samsung are talking while beta testing their Oreo-based updates.

However, it is likely that Xiaomi may open the Beta testing program once it irons most of the kinks out of the preliminary build to provide a more stable version. Xiaomi has not announced any details about the rollout of the final Oreo-based update. According to a report by GSMArena, it is likely that Mi Mix 2 users will have to wait for a few months before they can install the final version of the update.

Interested Mi Mix 2 users can visit the forum post to find the instructions on how to enroll themselves in the closed beta program. This comes months after the company launched Android 7.1 Nougat-based MIUI 9 for Xiaomi devices.
