MIUI 12 is now official

MIUI 12 has been finally announced. According to Xiaomi, they believe that the new UI is on par with Apple's iOS with minimalistic design and animations to a simplistic look that is easy on the eyes.

22 models are under beta testing and the stable version will be released this June.

For this version of MIUI, Xiaomi has had a heavy focus on reducing animation and improving security and privacy such as that the new UI can record application behaviours and report apps that act maliciously to the user. Any new permissions request will cause a prompt to appear. Accepting the prompt lets the app use the information the user has permitted.

The new UI also has interceptors which prevent apps from running in the background. MIUI 12 is also the first UI that passed TUV Rheinland's "Android System Enhanced Privacy Protection Test" or (ASEPPT) that ensures that user data is fully secured.
