  Wonderful hardware. Bought from HK Goldway with unofficial Global ROM

  The only down side is jumping in too quickly and buying the Global ROM version which was shipped with 9.5.31 beta which has since been blocked/discontinued by Xiaomi. Furthermore the bootloader has been unlocked (didn't know this when huying) and things like NFC for tap-and-pay is therefore made useless as the phone is spotted by Google and other services as rooted.
  I believe that I will be able to fix this in the medium term by back-burning a ROM when it is released and then relocking the bootloader in order to receive OTA updates. At the moment I am stuck in no-mans land.
  So CAUTION. If your language is English you are bteer off buying the Chinese version. Just my opinion.
  I am an experienced Xiaomi consumer having bought a Note 3, Mi4C, Note 4X, Mi5, Mi5Plus, Note5x, MiA1, Pocophone F1 along the way.

  Pros

  • Best in class hardware
  • Great camera (GCAM already released)
  • Huge memory

  Cons

  • GLOBAL ROM is potentially a trap

  Doesn't compare with the similarly named Pocophone F1 but surprisingly good overall

  Amazing technology and price

  Whack the Google CAM3 on this and it is almost a Pixel3 for half the price. Honestly awesome; now that it is a few months old and newer F2? and others are on the horizon it is still even better value as the price goes down.
