MIUI 10 Beta brings a ton of new features to Xiaomi smartphones including better system-wide scaling for phones with different aspect ratios, navigational gesture support as well as a revamped recent apps section and support for progressive web apps. More importantly, **MIUI 10** is based on Android Oreo 8.1 which ensure that even older budget Xiaomi devices received an updated security patch. Users with devices running MIUI 8 or older, however, will have to unlock the bootloader on the device and download the Beta from the MIUI website. The downloaded file can then be flashed directly using fastboot. For a more detailed explanation on how to go about this process, Xiaomi has all the step listed out right here. The process is much simpler if you are using a Xiaomi smartphone running the MIUI 9 Global Beta. All you have to do is head over to the update section in the setting menu and then check for an update.
