MIUI 13 release date reportedly is December 16th.
Smartphones from the Mi 9, Mi 10, Mi Note 10, Mi CC 9, Mi 11, Mi 11X, Xiaomi 11T, Mi MIX Fold, and Xiaomi MIX 4 series will be getting the update. However, the older smartphones, launched in 2019, will be getting the MIUI 13 version based on Android 11, while the rest will get the Android 12-based custom skin.
Redmi fans in India can look forward to the MIUI 13 update for models like Redmi Note 10/ Pro/ Lite, Redmi Note 9 Pro, Redmi 9/ 9 Activ, Redmi K20/ K20 Pro, and Redmi Note 10T. Check out the full list.
Almost all POCO smartphones are getting the MIUI 13 update, which shouldn't be a surprise since the brand had a resurgence in the last couple of years only.
Xiaomiui claims the company may release the beta version of MIUI 13 on November 27th, while the stable version of the UI will be release at a special event on December 16th, which falls in line with the Xiaomi CEO's confirmation. Flagship phones will be the first to receive the MIUI 13 update, followed by the mid-ranger and other models.
Xiaomi has apparently seeded MIUI 13 beta to recently launched flagships and the testing is currently ongoing. The custom skin based on Android 12 is expected to come as a major upgrade over the current MIUI 12/12.5.
We can expect battery life improvements and visual improvements. MIUI 13 is expected to bring a revamped UI, with new additions such as floating window for games, which is said to be new on any custom skin. There's memory fusion technology, which is tipped to be similar to the virtual RAM feature that allocates some part of the storage to RAM for better multitasking. MIUI 13 will add 3GB of expandable RAM on Xiaomi/ Redmi/ POCO phones. It will bring new fonts, redesigned app icons, new animations, an enhanced notification panel, and improved privacy options.

Speculations are rife that it may bring new Always-on display themes, a new power-saving mode to improve battery performance, an improved notification system that could allow managing older, and newer notifications, along with new wallpapers. MIUI 13 is also said to bring iOS-like widgets, a smart toolbox, a front camera assistant, MIUI Pure Mode, and more features.
