Here’s a list of Android 11 beta phones (Update: Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro download link)

Update, June 15, 2020 (03:27 PM ET): Xiaomi was one of the first non-Google companies to confirm that it would have some phones in the Android 11 beta program. It has now officially posted Android 11 beta download links for the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro. We’ve updated the original article with those links.

Keep in mind that this will put a version of Android 11 on your device that’s based on the AOSP, not MIUI. It’s recommended that you back up your phone before downloading this Android 11 beta.

In the meantime, read the original article below to find out more about the devices that work so far with Android 11.

Original article, June 10, 2020 (1:00 PM ET): Last year, for the Android Q beta (which eventually became Android 10), you could install the early version of the operating system on nearly two dozen phones. This year, though, for the Android 11 beta, that is decidedly not the case.

With the launch of the first beta, only the most recent Google Pixel devices supported it. That meant all Pixels except for the original Pixel and Pixel XL.

Unfortunately, we didn’t see phones from Asus, LG, Nokia, OnePlus, Oppo, Realme, Sony, Vivo, or Xiaomi on the initial list of devices that could get the update. All those brands had phones within the Android Q beta program last year.

Thankfully, a couple of OEMs have since revealed that the Android 11 beta is coming to their phones, namely OnePlus, Oppo, and Xiaomi. You can check out the supported models below.

Hopefully, more brands are able to hop on the Android 11 beta bandwagon very soon, such as Asus, LG, Nokia, and maybe even Samsung. We will update this article with direct links to installation instructions for each device as soon as they become official.
