.going by the image he uploaded, na smartgo
Thanks, thats why i want to know when exactly he purchased the product, because he said 18 days. So i want to know if its 18 days of complete shipping or 18 day of handover to airline or 18 days with the purchasing date.

But lower antutu score? For a peroid the X20 was used in powering high-end devices. I hear some reviewers (mostly not from India) say the X20 is a faster chip, i dont really care about the Battery consumption. 2.1ghz vs 2ghz?
.your mind is attached to d MTK, so, y not follow ur mind.

Already had my heart set out for the Redmi note 4 until i saw some couple of videos against the Note 4x (which i really regret) now i'm in a delimma. Do i go for the 4 or 4x? I just want something very fast and reliable.

Everyone here seems to be picking up the 4x, but i think the Helio X20 is better and faster than the Snapdragon 625.
Guy... GO for the SD version, this phone does not heat up @ all, no matter what you throw @it ....No regrets

.If I were you, I really won't disturb myself. If your packages leave the same same shop the same day, it still doesn't mean it will get to Lagos same day. So, don't sweat it! Relax and wait for your item till NIPOST notifies you or open a dispute after 60days and claim your money if you don't receive your item.

When do you order your product? from which store? because my order is now over 18 days and the shipping is now 15 days and yet its still saying HANDOVER TO AIRLINE though i order from smartgo.

Haha, mine is over 21days today. Don't worry, they will update u today or tomorrow. Mine dispatched already shaa

Forget about d note 4 mtk being slightly faster than the snapdragön,in reality u might not notice d difference.

Antutu is just one thing, though. Mediatek rarely releases source code, so good luck getting updates on it. Frankly, I buy MediaTek devices only, since I need the BB data something--I'm a power data user--but the SD 625 has to be one of the best chips out there.

Not the delay is even the problem, i have ordered for something and it used almost the 60 days that i have to even extend the day on Ali, but then the update is accurate showing the tour of my device around the world. But now, i need to travel and dont know the exact time of returning and i wish to take the phone along. yesterday was the day to travel but now dont know when because the phone is not yet around. So thats why am so worried.

If possible to change the location of delivery i will have been soo happy and will just travel and put mind to rest

So, what happens if the BB plans are discontinued? As it is, only Airtel and maybe Etisalat are still offering the plan!
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by ugoelvis1(m): 6:11pm On May 15, 2017
Na waah oo for this global version of redmi Note 4 4/64g SD. Placed at US 205 + shipping = 213.99 since April 24, uptill now still on transit center. But my worst regret is that the price have sloped to US169. 99 presently. Think was deceived by the warning to buy cheap on pre-sell , now I no see phone, I bought high, people way buy cheap is confirming receipt of their orders.

Till then. I had a budget of $130 and had to buy a Doogee Y6 instead of a Redmi 4x because of it. An SD device would cost me 3-5k extra worth of data every month, which may not look like much but adds up over time.

I think I've advised you on this earlier(abi it was a similar case)
Leave an authorization note to any of your siblings/trusted friend, a copy of your ID and your next location. Once you're called, tell the caller you're sending a proxy to collect it and the mode of identification. Once your proxy receives it, there and then, he'll send it to your new location. EMS is btw 1500-2500 while ordinary packet shouldn't cost above 650.

Yes am the one you advised bro, but the issue is even if they help me to collect it, i will not be able to use the phone and may be useless or useful to the collector till i come back which maybe over a month.

The proxy can't send it to your new location? Let him reroute it to you na. Haba.
I rerouted a tablet to Ilorin from Taraba state some weeks back cuz the owner travelled before the arrival of the device.

You spoke my mind. The funniest part was that they released an update for note 4 snapdragon variant even before the phone went on sales while the users of the mtk variant were begging for update.

I will always choose SD over MTK cuz of supports and updates. Antutu won't be there to solve issues o
