The global release of MIUI 12.5 is not likely to have any major differences over what is there for the Chinese market. This means that the latest MIUI update would bring features such as clipboard protection, floating windows, approximate location sharing, and sandbox . Xiaomi also bundles updated Notes and Mi Browser apps with MIUI 12.5 that are expected to be available to global s through the new release.

One of the prominent features that come with MIUI 12.5 is MIUI+. This works similar to Microsoft's Your Phone app and allows s to integrate their Xiaomi phone with a Windows PC for seamless access of notifications, text messages, and photos directly on through the computer screen. It also gives the ability to access the phone's clipboard data and some of its installed apps on the connected PC.

MIUI 12.5 in China is also promised to consume up to 32 percent less memory in system operations and offer a 17 percent decrease in power consumption.

Xiaomi has not yet provided any details about the phones that will receive the MIUI 12.5 Global Stable update. Also, since the company ended its MIUI Global Beta ROM testing programme in 2019, the latest update may take some time to reach end s.

However, models including Redmi Note 9 are among the eligible phones to receive the MIUI 12.5 update in China.
