Xiaomi introduced the MIUI 12.5, the next intermediate MIUI update in China back in December, and today it has confirmed the list of features that are coming as well as the Global roll-out details and list of devices getting it, as expected. Based on MIUI 12, the MIUI 12.5 has  a strong focus on system optimizations. After a complete revamp of the system UI, its CPU usage was reduced by up to 22% while power consumption – by up to 15%, ensuring frictionless performance and graphics, said the company.

In screen gestures will now be smoother than ever since it has received a dedicated thread, making sure that no other tasks will interfere with them, and guaranteeing instant response.

It also gets uninstallable system apps finally. The vast majority of apps in the new system can be uninstalled, while some apps that are engraved in the system core can be hidden, said the company. It also comes with a revamped NOTES app with four different drawing tools, quick access for note-taking and more.
