Soooooo annoying.... And I got my redmi 3 like few weeks back....
I was considering getting note 3 only because of fingerprint sensor, but it is way too large for my liking. And now they release this.

Don't be. Plus it's to be expected that they'd get either an Enhanced or Prime (well except now obviously it's a Pro so) out. Not that I defend Xiaomi but they're not the only ones struggling to balance out price points.
Subject to individual preference of course, sure both 3GB RAM and 32GB internal storage are more than welcome but are you sure you don't want to pair those to a slightly more capable SoC with better GPU OR at least with an FHD screen instead?
As for me being Malaysian when Mi are lagging their ass in their own sweet time to even bring in proper official Redmi 3/ido sets on time let alone this Pro I can't be arsed to wait and definitely are happy with how much I've paid for my imported set so yeah.
Hello everyone, does someone know, will the PRO version have capacity buttons light?
Any news here yet? It says 4th of April, but I can't really find anything yet.
It will be more great if :
Super AMOLED 2560 x 1440 pixels or QHD+ with Gorilla Glass 5 with 3D or Force Touch too
SD652 or SD825 in it
USB Type-C
QC 3.0 or Super VOOC
24 UltraPixel with f/1.2 main camera & 24 UltraPixel front camera with f/1.2 (Best lowlight) dual-pixel + iSight technology
Micro SD Card (up to 512Gb) slot separetly from SIM 2nd Slot
10.000 mAh battery capacity
What do you think?

Spemall is selling it already, they have posted a photo showing their stock.

I've just purchased from Spemall. Never used them before, but I guess Paypal has my back if anything dodgy happens. £144 delivered to the UK by DHL, with the promise that they'll "lower the invoice price" so that I get charged less tax at import... We'll see. Should be here by the end of next week.
Just ordered one Redmi 3 Pro yesterday, hope to reicive it as soon as possible.

You should have chosen EU Direct. I have done that when ordering from Spemall and the item arrived within a week and no customs tax.

Ah that's a shame, live and learn I guess. DHL was a pound more but showing as 60% discount, so I assumed that it was the better value option.
This handset is now on hotukdeals.co.uk under an AliExpress seller for the bargain price of £120.

Hey guys,
Is spemall.com a reliable/trustworthy site? I am currently in Cyprus (EU) and its basically between ibuygou.com and spemall.com. Which handles returns friendlier and you guys have had better experiences with?
Thanks!
Hello I just get my redmi 3 Pro. I am installing some apps and noticed that heats up very fast. Does anyone feel the same?
Also sorry if my english is bad im spanish speaker. :good:
I'm not sure whether I should buy the pro version or the non-pro version, if I'm buying the pro version, can I use the ROMs from the non-pro version?
Some one can help me, where is price cheapest?
i'm want to buy PRO version
I've now received my Redmi 3 Pro and after a week of use I am very happy with it. I'm getting 6-7 hours of screen on time, the camera is much better than the reviews led me to believe, and it's been an all round decent experience. The only thing that is bugging me is that I'm on the Chinese ROM and don't seem to have a clear answer on whether the Redmi 3 ROMs will work or will brick my device. Ideally I'd run CM12, but even the Global Miui would be better than the Chinese one.
Redmi 3 Roms seem yet not to work with pro version. Fingerprint and network seem not to work.
Waiting for a fixed release of EU rom.

Wow, nuts how the prices change. I'm waiting for my Redmi 3 still that I ordered in the beginning of April. Paid 170 USD for it.
Really

I will buy it
Well, ain't I lucky. http://es.aliexpress.com/store/1986585 <-- may NOT want to get something there. I ordered a Xiaomi Redmi3, but I got a 2nd hand Samsung E7, packaged in their own unique tape and all. Had to escalate the dispute with Aliexpress, luckily they helped me out.
I guess I may be trying again for the pro version. Any other reviewers?
Hello,
I'm from Canada and I would like to import this phone when it's out worldwide but I read stories on the forum about users received fake Xiaomi phones from some sites. So I would to know which sites do you used to import the phone internationally and they don't overpriced too much the initial retail price ?
So no site to import the device ?

Try GeekBuying, I've used them reliably for years and they are usually the least expensive (if you incorporate the total cost such as shipping and insurance).
http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Xiaomi-Mi-5S-Qualcomm-Snapdragon-821-Smartphone---Black-372710.html
does geekbuying have it in stock?
It's not out yet, only announced
I spoke to a seller on aliexpress and she confirmed she had the silver ones in stock. I placed an order and she told me that they will ship it on the 4th of October, after the holidays in China.

Top One Digital - aliexpress. He offers worldwide shipping. I have used his services and I can recommend him. But I highly recommend you to pay for DHL delivery so you will not pay any kind of VAT and also you will get your device in 5-6 days.
As far as i know right now he has Xiaomi Mi 5S 64/128 GB (both) and also Mi 5S Plus but only 64 gigs. The price of Mi 5S 128 GB is 430 USD.
Nah they have a picture of a gray one (black face), but they only have the silver with white face in stock at the time I ordered.
I also messaged and she said they don't know when they'll get the grey colour

Well, it really depends. I will talk only about "Top One Digital" because I have bought few times from him and he is really good seller. First of all, he packs the items really well. Even if the DHL airplane f*cks up in the air and it fells, your package will be okey. I needed 10 minutes to break down the package of TopOne, for real
You have 2 choices when you shop phone(s) from his store:
1st - if you want to receive sealed box, he will send you sealed box but once you open it, the phone will have chinese global stable pre-installed - which means when you turn on phone you will have only 2 languages - chinese and english and when you finally go to the home screen you will see a lot of crap chinese applications. And google play will be missing from your device. But MiFlash allows you to flash official ROMs without unlocking the bootloader and it is really simple and easy.
2nd - if you don't want to flash the global rom by yourself, you can just write down a note to him (or just send him a message) that you want to receive the phone with Global Stable ROM and he will do it instead of you. But you will not receive a sealed box. You will be able to receive OTA and etc. No chinese apps will be pre-loaded and you will also have google play on your phone.
I have bought few xiaomi phones from him and I don't know what is the procedure if you want to get Meizu or anything else but yesterday i compared the price and specs of Meizu M3 Note (3 GB RAM) and Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro (3 GB RAM) and it is useless to go for meizu.
One last thing - about the latest xiaomi phones - Mi 5S and Mi 5S Plus - no matter what, you will receive the device with chinese stable ROM because there is still no global stable for these models but really soon we will be able to download them from their official site.
So don't hesitate - if you want to get some good chinese phone - order from TopOne but don't forget to use DHL delivery.
Try tradingshenshen too. Bought my 5 pro from them. Great experience.
Oppmart have very good prices but they charge $50 for the grey model because it's 'harder to get'. They ship from EU $20 so guarantee no customs for EU countries. Not sure of Brexit affects us.
I'll most probably buy from them, grey 4gb/128. I'd rather pay thr extra for the 4gb ram since the Pixel Phones will be 4gb and it can last a few years

Well years ago, before the not best priced store DX.com sold out of them, they were priced at €107, with free shipping in 2015.
http://www.dx.com/p/xiaomi-redmi-2-...ne-w-4-7-hd-16gb-rom-8-0mp-light-green-400895
So depending on condition €40 - 60 or so? Or what is the general idea? I know you can get the Redmi 4A for €99, these days.
I almost snagged a non-pro for £30-35 on ebay. Someone beat me to it.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Xiaomi-Redmi-2-8GB-Black-Unlocked-Smartphone-/232210253680
Can't find any Pro / Prime second hand for sale in Europe or North America. However they can be found new on www.alibaba.com/ for $60 - 100.
Here is a Pro one for €55 in Italy.
http://www.ebay.it/itm/272534188829
Can't buy it since he only ships within Italy. :-/

This is a bit high for a new one, isn't it? I mean you can get a Redmi 3, Note 3 or even 4 for the same or just a little more.
Someone in Germany should snipe this one tomorrow, if they can.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Xiaomi-Redmi-2-8GB-Weis-Ohne-Simlock-Smartphone-/262834282717
I can get a new in a box for $89, I'm wondering if it is worth it, or if I should add 50-60 and get a newer device.

better go for redmi 4A that's much better
I was just looking at the Pixel Experience download page (https://download.pixelexperience.org/) and it says there is a download for the Redmi Note 7 Pro (violet), but I don't see one for the Redmi Note 7 Global Version (lavender). So I'm wondering if there will be one for this or if the one for the Pro version would work. I live in the United States so the Global Version has a lot better network coverage than the Pro Version. Especially for LTE 4G. Actually I bought a Pro Version one from China and I'm waiting to receive it. But will attempt to return it or may just sell it here. But I also bought the Global Version which is out for delivery to me even as I type this. Just joined these forums and they're great. Thanks for your help.
Please refer to the right section. I was hyped when I saw your title and thought that it was released. We should wait for the developers, IIRC letsmakecake is currently on it

Hello all.
I'm looking to get a new phone, and the OnePlus 7 Pro is just a tad too expensive here in Canada ($1128 after tax).
So I wanna get the 6t. But I imagine One Plus might put it at a discount at some point now that the the 7 is on sale. Does OP have a habit of putting older models on sale? Should I wait a few weeks to buy the phone or is the current price ($729 before tax) the best I'm gonna get?
Thank you!
You should wait for the OnePlus 7 (not the pro one)
I'm from India & I recently got a OP6T (8GB+128GB) Mirror Black for ₹32,999 (around $470 USD) and I'm really sad as OnePlus has launched the OP7 for the exact same price here.
I wish I could somehow switch to the OP7 as my 6T is barely 12 days old today

Amazon India doesn't have that policy here. And, OnePlus is still selling the 6T starting with ₹37,999 (≈ $542) for the 6GB+128GB on their official site. I really do have a bad luck

That's a shame. I'm sorry to hear that. It's reasons like that that I have given up on OnePlus and am moving on to a better company. They don't even sell the OnePlus 7 here in America, because they know nobody will buy the pro version when the regular 7 is a much better bang for your buck, in comparison.

They might sell the 7 there too. It's not even on sale here. The sales are gonna start in June. Yes this was a sad incident, but I'm still gonna stick it to OnePlus

I never see OnePlus to give discount for older phone, like 6T now.
Why don't you buy it from OnePLus site? 7 pro 6gb-128gb is 999 canadian dollars. I don't know about Canada taxes, but if i buy it, i pay 699 euro, taxes, transport included.
Why don't you buy from another person (selling forums) from Canada (sell forums)?
This depends on your country and its laws.
2 weeks ago I bought a returned 6T for 410 US dollars incl taxes.
It looked absolutely new.
The price difference to the OP7 is too big in my opinion.

I suppose you're talking about the OP7 Pro... OP7 starts from $549 here in India, at which 2 years back OP5 was released. OP6 launched at $583 & OP6T at $633 in India.
So, OP7 is cheaper here compared to previous devices.

No, I meant that if he can get the 6t as cheap as I bought, the price difference is not worth it. But only If he is ok, buying an not absolutely new device.
I am living in Europe and paid for the 6t ( tried and returned before 14 days after buying) 370 euros. The OP7 is just available for 560 euros, but it's brand new.
Therefore it is the best time to buy a 6t if you can accept some small drawbacks.
