In August last year, the Poco X2 received MIUI 12 Global Stable ROM update that debuted with build number MIUI 12.0.1.0.QGHINXM. That update was, however, based on Android 10.
The Poco X2 was launched in India in February last year as a rebranded Redmi K30 4G. The smartphone featured a 120Hz display and was based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G SoC. It included a 4,500mAh battery that supports 27W fast charging.
