So, Xiaomi just released their plan of updating their Chinese devices on MIUI 11. You can find the plan on their homepage here (scroll to the bottom)
As you can clearly tell, Mi Pad 4 is not on the list (neither is Mi Pad 4 Plus), so unless they change their mind, we're stuck with what we already have.

Will it be possible to develop unofficial MIUI 11 or Android 9 and 10 roms if they release sources?
github.com/xiaomi-sdm660
Mi 8 Lite/Youth is getting MIUI11 in the first batch, it also uses Snapdragon 660.
As well as Redmi Note 7, Mi 6X,...
I am really courious what devs maybe can do with it.

If no MIUI 11, goodbye for me to MIUI. But which rom should I choose? @amkirk94, are you working on a new build of Pixel Experience?
Pixel Experience Plus on Android 9 will keep getting monthly security updates and a few new features at least until the end of the year.
Meanwhile, our friend @rcstar6696 is working hard to get us some Android 10.

I agree with gaja22.
I'm seriusly thinking about to switch to Pixel Experience Rom for many months. I have 2 questions:
1. What are the difference between Pixel Experience and Pixel Experience Plus roms? I'd like to use a stock rom without developers personalizations.
2. Are OTA updates available or I have to install manually every new update?

Thanks in advance for tour support.

1. The difference between Pixel Experience and Pixel Experience Plus is that the Plus version has a few extra features, while maintaining overall the Pixel feel. Some of the features on the Plus include Navigation Button Invert Layout. integrated Screen and Sound Recorder, Status Bar Customization and many more.
Currently the 2 variants are maintained by 2 different developers.

2. OTA Updates are currently not available for neither Pixel Experience, nor for the Pixel Experience Plus.

Next: MIUI 11 Android 10 :cool:

Pie MIUI 11 seems pretty nice and stable so far. But why stop here..

Edit: Tablet mode enabled screens, and yes. It's very smooth. Even manual camera settings work.

I'll upload it only when I'll get Android 10 MIUI 11 to work and most/all bugs will be fixed. Official Pie vendor from Xiaomi would help a lot, but seems like Xiaomi doesn't care at all about their tablets.

Right now I have to stabilise Pie vendor, then I'll try different bases to see which one will work best, and after that I'll try to upgrade Pie vendor to Android 10. It's a ton of work but in the end we hopefully will have mostly working MIUI 11 Android 10.

I've been using Pie MIUI 11 for a day now and it's really amazing. But we all want Android 10 :D

I'll post pics as soon as Android 10 MIUI 11 boots. (Might take a while as I just realised Q needs System as root)
