This is the third Android 10 build Xiaomi has rolled out for Mi A3 smartphones. The first update was rolled out back in February, but Xiaomi stopped after users discovered bugs such as battery drain and fingerprint issues. The company re-released the Android 10 update in March with the latest security patch, but the same issues surfaced again. The third Android 10 update, which has started rolling out now, is again giving users trouble, but we hope Xiaomi will address them soon. The new update weighs 1.33GB, April security patch, and Android 10 features such as dark mode, privacy controls, and gesture navigations.
