[Read: Xiaomi Mi A2 specification and details] Great news for Xiaomi Mi A1 user, now they will get Android Oreo 8.1 update soon. And their successor Xiaomi Mi A2 will launch soon, expected date 23rd July 2018 - 26th July 2018

Xiaomi launched the Mi A1, its first Android One phone  with Android Nougat 7.1. A couple of months later, M1 A1 was upgraded to Android 8.0 Oreo. Ever since then rumours of Android 8.1 Oreo update for the Mi A1 were making rounds on the internet. Shutting all talks, Xiaomi has now officially started rolling out the Android 8.1 Oreo update for the Mi A1 users.

The Android 8.1 Oreo update on the Mi A1 comes along with June security patch. The update reportedly weighs 1.1GB and has already started rolling out globally with reports from users in India and the Philippines getting the OTA. To get the update, Mi A1 users will need to go to setting, check for the update and then install it. Ensure to connect your device to a Wi-Fi network before installing the update.

The Android 8.1 Oreo doesn't really bring a lot of changes, in terms of features, over the Android 8.0 Oreo. The official changelog of the update is yet to be available. However, according to an unofficial changelog, the new software update comes with a new power menu, better sound, launcher version 3, and some minor changes in the system UI. The June security patch brings bug fixes and improvements to the phone.

Android 8.1 Oreo update is definitely a good news for the Mi A1 users. But, according to the unofficial changelog, the software update comes along with a bug that apparently wipes entire SMS history. Some users who have installed the update have reported that the problem specifically occurs after the message app is swiped away. So, it is safe to back up your SMSes before installing the update.

Meanwhile, there has been a lot of buzz about the Mi A1 successor aka the Mi A2. Reports say that Mi A2 will be launching anywhere between July 23 and Jul 26 in India. Since the Mi 5X became the Mi A1 for the Indian market, chances are the newly launched Mi 6X could be the Mi A2 in India.
