Sorry to bother you all.

So I just got on the Ntel Wawu train. Sadly it appears that my phone doesn't support the Ntel bands.

And that's the confusing part. I use the Xiaomi Mi Max 1. The listed bands are 1,3,7, 38.

Ntel claims to support band 8 and 3.

So I thought I was covered.

I've tried the *#*#4636#*#* trick and still no show. The Sim is stuck on emergency calls only and no service.

Ocassionally it flashes a full bar network and disappears in seconds.

Btw, the wawu sim apparently works flawlessly on Redmi note 4x. I tested it.

And I recently updated to miui 9.5.2 stable global rom. 4 days ago to be precise.

Any suggestions on what else to try please. I'm at my wits end here.

Much regards.

Most Samsung devices(even low budget) are at least 1080P AMOLED. N5A uses a 720P IPS.

the closest thing to redmi 5 plus from Samsung is their A8 2018 version that is nearly double the price of what Xiaomi is asking for the redmi 5 plus, there is no basis for comparison at all, Xiaomi wipes the floor with Samsung in the spec or performance per price department *mic drop* grin grin

I will advice u go for Redmi 5 plus considering the following,

1. Screen design
2. Better chance of receiving andriod 8 over Note 4x
3. Front camera has front flash.

Maybe you should define "low cost budget" in terms of samsung phones. While you are at it, kindly point out those with the 1080p amoled screens.

Maybe check with Antutu for likely performance scores since no one here has used every samsung phone including A8 2018 and Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus

Camon C7. Xiaomi performance is superb. Screen quality is almost like Samsung.

the samsung A8 is slightly ahead of the redmi 5 plus according to benchmarks but it doesn't justify the price gap between them
