Xiaomi Mi A1 gets Android 8.1, but you might want to hold off updating

-

Xiaomi's Android One smartphone - Mi A1 - is getting a new update. Weighing in at around 1.2GB, it's a major update that bumps the Android version of the device to 8.1 Oreo.

Aside from what the 8.1 update brings (like Pixel 2 launcher look as well as dark and light themes), the update also includes Android security fixes for the month of June. The official change-log isn't yet available, but here's an unofficial one from someone who received the update.

The roll out seems to be happening globally, as users from markets like India and the Philippines are reporting getting the OTA update.

While Android 8.1 rollout is definitely a good news for Mi A1 users, they may want to hold off updating their units as there are reports of a bug in the update that wipes entire SMS history. Specifically, users say this happens after the messages app is swiped away. So be warned!

What's the difference between stock Android , Android One , and Android Go ? Each is a flavor of Android, each originates from Google and all have a few things in common. But there are some big differences in the way in which smartphone makers use the open source software, how security updates are released, what pre-installed apps are included, and more. Today we're clearing up any confusion. Note: For clarity, we're defining stock Android as whatever Google ships on its own hardware.
