After being introduced first in China, Xiaomi finally launched its MIUI 12 globally. Xiaomi plans to launch a beta version of the UI starting next week. As the name suggests, MIUI 12 itself is the successor to MIUI 11, which was launched in October last year and is equipped with some improvements. One of them is the latest security feature that will remind the user if there are applications that access a variety of core cellphone features such as microphones, cameras, locations, to contacts secretly. MIUI 12 users can also enjoy the screen mirroring (cast) feature that supports Miracast similar to the Smart View feature on various Samsung Galaxy phones.
