New Android 11 builds have arrived for the Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro. The builds are available to download now, although they are both in beta.

Xiaomi has issued another round of China Beta builds to multiple handsets. These builds are not intended for daily use, but they are available to download and flash through TWRP should you wish to try the bleeding-edge of MIUI.

At the cusp are the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro, which Xiaomi is beta testing on Android 11. The two devices are currently running on different versions of MIUI, with Xiaomi having upgraded the Mi 10 to the slightly newer 20.7.9. By contrast, the Mi 10 Pro is on 20.7.8 for the time being.

If you are interested in trying either build, then you can download them from Xiaomi's servers via Xiaomi Firmware Updater. XDA Developers also provides a list and download links to various MIUI China Beta builds, for reference. Please be aware that these builds will not contain Google apps and services.

The Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro will probably be the first two Xiaomi smartphones to be upgraded to Android 11. However, Xiaomi may well upgrade them to MIUI 12 before Android 11.
