Devices Compatible With MIUI 9 Beta

I enrolled to the MIUI 9 beta program using the Xiaomi Mi 6 and the Redmi Note 4 Qualcomm version but the MIUI 9 beta is supported by 49 Xiaomi devices. You can check if your Mi or Redmi device is supported or not by searching in the table below:

1. First, download the“Xiaomi MIUI Forum”app from thePlay Store.

2. In the MIUI Forum app, tap on theProfile iconin the top left andLogin/Sign Upwith an MIUI account.

3. Once done, tap on the“Recruitment”option in the home page of the app.

4. In the next page,select the Xiaomi devicethat you own from the drop down list, andexperience you have in the field of smartphones. Lastly, you’ll be required to enter yourreason for applyingas an MIUI 9 Beta Tester.

5. Once you’re through with all of that, tap on the“Submit”button. You’ll be presented with a browser window that should say that your application has been submitted.

And that’s it. All you have to do now is cross your fingers and hope for your application to be selected. The first batch of selected beta testers will be notified onJuly 25, and the rest will follow soon after.

Note:This application is for the Chinese version of the MIUI 9 Beta ROM. If you’re interested in trying out the Global variant instead, you’ll have to wait till further details are announced by Xiaomi.

Now all you have to do is wait for your application to be selected.
