Xiaomi has started rolling out the MIUI 9 global beta update for the second batch of smartphones. This will include a lot more Mi phones, such as the Mi Max 2, Mi 5, Mi 5s, and Redmi 4 etc. However, since it is the ‘Global Beta ROM’ and not the stable build, installing it comes with some potential issues.

It is to be noted that Redmi Note 4 in India was eligible for the global MIUI 9 beta ROM, which got Android Nougat update recently. However, now apart from Mi 6, Redmi Note 4X/Redmi Note 4 (India) the update is now available for the Xiaomi Mi Mix, Mi Note 2, Mi 5, Mi 5s, Mi 5s Plus, Mi Max, Mi Max 2, Redmi 4 and the Redmi 4X.
