Furthermore, you need to install Minimal ADB and Fastboot drivers on your PC, as shown here.
1. First up, you need to download the TWRP custom recovery for your device. Depending upon your device, download the TWRP custom recovery “.img” file from the links given below:

2. Next up, switch off your phone and then press and hold the Power button and the Volume Down key simultaneously. It will make the phone to boot up in Fastboot mode.
3. Now we need to flash the TWRP Recovery on your device. Connect your device to your PC in fastboot mode. Now, open a Command Prompt or Powershell window and run the following command:
fastboot flash recovery location_of_TWRP_recovery.img
For instance, I downloaded my TWRP image file to C: only. Hence, the command I executed was:
fastboot flash recovery C:/twrp.img
4. After that, run the following command to boot into the custom recovery:
fastboot boot location_of_TWRP_recovery.img
For instance, I downloaded my TWRP image file to C: only. Hence, the command I executed was:
fastboot boot C:/twrp.img
5. Once you’re into TWRP, go to Wipe -> Format Data, and then type “yes” to proceed. Now that you’ve formatted your data, go to Reboot -> Recovery.
6. You will now once again boot into TWRP custom recovery. Here, go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, and select Dalvik / ART Cache, Cache, and System partitions. Then swipe to format these partitions.
7. Now connect your mobile to your PC and transfer the MIUI 10 ROM to your device. Then, tap on Install and navigate to the MIUI 10 ROM file that you downloaded in the second step.
8. Swipe the bar below to install the ROM. Once you’ve installed it, tap on “Wipe Cache/Dalvik”. After that, just reboot your device.
9. And that’s it. MIUI 10 is now installed on your Xiaomi device.

First of all you can download the mi 10 in any mi device and the only draw back in this beta version is the settings would be available only in Chinese language not in English but if you want to be update to date and then there is no choice that you have to wait for couple of months for xiaomi to release it globally
