Check your updater app to update now. Note: The updates are released in batches https://t.co/0ABu0JKa4J — C Manmohan (@cmanmohan) October 13, 2020 As with all major software rollouts, the MIUI 12 stable update for the Poco F1 is also being rolled out in batches, so it might take a while to be available for all devices. If you own a Poco F1, you’ll get a notification once the update is available for your particular unit. However, if you can’t wait any longer, you can check for it manually by going over to the Settings menu. The Poco F1 was launched in 2018 with the promise of flagship-level performance at a fraction of the cost of top-tier phones. It shipped with Android 8.1 Oreo out-of-the-box but was subsequently updated to Android 9.0 Pie in late 2018. It went on to become a cult classic, but remained the sole Poco launch in more than a year before the brand was resurrected this year with the launch of a number of other Poco-branded devices.
