Download MIUI 12.0.3.0 China Stable ROM for Redmi Note 8 [V12.0.3.0.QCOCNXM]

Check OTA Update

The firmware is rolling over-the-air via gradual mode. Therefore, some of the users may not get the OTA update at the same time. Either you can wait for the OTA notification or manually check for it.

Ensure that your phone is connected to a Wi-Fi network and should have at least 50% battery level.

Next, head over to the device Settings menu > About Phone > Software update > Check for update. Additionally, you can directly go to the Software Updater app to check OTA as well. If the latest V11.0.5.0.PCOCNXM update is available, just download and install it.
