It is no new to see the phone manufacturer’s accidentally (clearing meaning purportedly) leaking the teasers of new features or testing software. Well the same had been the case with the Xiaomi with regards to the Mi MIX 2S, Mi 8 and Mi 9, which got the MIUI 11 tagged builds, even if it was a simple cosmetic change.
Now even if these updates unveiled the logo of the Eleventh UI from Mi, the internals of this update build had nothing differing from the 10th MIUI edition. The story does not just end up here. There has been another similar incident noticed just a few hours ago on a page that, mostly known as Accidental release, which was also shut down ater by the OEM but brought the MIUI 11 update for Mi MIX 2S, Mi 6 & Redmi K20 Pro.
Xiaomi rolled out MIUI 11 update for Mi MIX 2S, Mi 6 & Redmi K20 Pro. However, the changelog nowhere mentioned ‘MIUI 11’, which was not so accidental. In this article, we have also mentioned the download links for the MIUI 11 update packages for Mi MIX 2S and the Redmi K20 Pro.
When we translated the Chinese language on this update, we came to know that the update is specific for some special users, most probably the Alpha testers. That is the reason why these updates have been remarked by the Watermarks. When you install this update on your device, you will see the IMEI and also your MI account ID everywhere on the page.
We are not sure if these watermarks are a part of the MIUI 11 builds or not and they can also be harmful for the alpha or beta testers. Make sure that you erase these identifiers or else you will be eliminated from the Xiaomi testing community. The layer of MIUI is surely upgrade to 11 in these builds, as we confirm it by checking the build.prop.

Basically a gamer, I tend to find Android so amusing that ended up creating a blog where I could share with you all that i am aware of and could be. Passion overtook me to an extent that I decided to be a full time technology blogger. Besides gaming, eating sleeping and Androiding is what keeps me going!
