After doing some research on my phone, I discovered that what sellers sold to people as note 4 global is note 4x.

Before I bought my phone then, I did a lot of research on the advantages note 4 global has over note 4x and I got to know that note 4 global has more useful lte bands that we need in Nigeria than note 4x like band 20 and note 4 global uses Sony sensor for its rear camera and some other findings.

Few days ago, someone on this thread ask a member how he manage to use smile lte on his xiaomi device and he replied that one of the reason why he buy that phone(Redmi 4a) was because it support band 20 which is what smile lte uses. After reading that, I just remove the smile lte from my sisters mifi to try it in my phone since my own phone too support band 20 and to my surprise, the network refuse to come up, I even searched manually for available network and it shows 62127 but all my effort to register on it didn't succeed.

And evidence is the camera: There is a small tutorial on this thread sometimes ago on how to know your camera sensor and i discover and also disappointed that xiaomi actually uses Samsung sensor contrary to Sony sensor I read earlier before buying then. Only those that bought the phone earlier when it's still more expensive actually buy the one with Sony sensor.

Although I don't really care about camera as I'm not a camera person but the unavailability of LTE band20 might be one of the reason why I have never receive lte signal from MTN since they too uses band 20 despite paying more for it then. I actually saw a cheaper note 4x then but because of that lte band 20 and Sony sensor, I decided to go for note 4 global.

Chairman, abeg wetin be the name of that your triple-sim phone?

On the issue of bands supported, I have personally not tested 4G on mine so I can't comment much on that coz I got the Global version which was stated to support band 20 and one other band missing on the Redmi Note 4x.

We will appreciate hands on testing by any Redmi Note 4 global version user.

What is the model number written behind your phone? Mine is 2015161 for rn3 se 3GB/32GB. Drop your's so that others with similar device can confirm.

It should tally with what's written on the carton

Just seeing this post...

My Redmi 4 prime is growing from strength to strength. Only problem now is that the Mrs has taken a liking to it... I may eventually lose custody of it. And if I do, it's gonna be the Xiaomi Mi5 next. I don dey use side eye dey look am since and the tin dey look me back. We may have to meet face to face stop admiring ourselves from far.

32gb

If you check this gsmarena link, you will see that note global model name supposed to be written on instead of the sticker at the back of my phone

So note 4x 32GB is 2016102.

The sticker is xiaomi's default way of identifying a device.

So the seller cannot clone a carton nor the sticker. You can also compare the imei on the carton and on the phone.


Awaiting other note 4x users

My carton is far from where I am presently. When I tried to remove the sticker, I thought I will find everything written on the sticker on the phone also but No I couldn't

I know my note4 global came SEALED, rear camera sensor is Sony and same model no as yours. Can't confirm if it supports band20 cuz there's no LTE bands in my area.
