Why not order the Taiwanese version from amazon? They have it there and it only cost $229.89 and while shipping is $10. Which is just #76,764.8. Contact justi4jesu and she will arrange the order for you. The colour is Black but the Gold colour is Cheaper than that. It's the SH Taiwanese version and it supports band 28.

Amazon does not charge for Tax on all their products. There's no Tax when purchasing this phone. justi4jesu just like others on Nairaland assist people procure and ship. Her area of specialty is in the US and UK. She doesn't do China. The $10 is the shipping and no additional cost and no customs wahala grin

1.Global Version means the phone can be used anywhere in the World.
2.Global Rom means the phone was originally manufactured for the local Chinese market but slightly modified with the Global Rom to make it adaptable to some parts of the World hence its not having all the bands. Though it can be used in Nigeria
3. it might not work outside say in the US etc.
1. This is very wrong ma
2. The modification(flashing global Rom) isn't to make it adaptable to some part of the world where it wouldn't have been used ordinarily. With or without the modification (global Rom flashing), it will work where its network bands are supported and won't work where the bands aren't supported. Rom changing isn't an hardware thingy and as such has nothing to do with its usability in Nigeria. People use Chinese versions with the Chinese Rom smoothly here in Nigeria. I use it too.
3. Usability anywhere depends on the network bands in the region where it is to be used.

Afaik, redmi note 5AI has 3 variants
1. Chinese Version: has 10 4G bands. It has bands 34, 39 and 41 which the other two versions don't have
2. Global version: has 9 4G bands. It has bands 4 and 20 which the Chinese version don't have
3. Taiwan version: has 11 4G bands. It has bands 2, 4,20,28 which the Chinese version don't have.

In summary, global version has bands 4 and 20 instead of bands 34,39 and 41 in Chinese version and the Taiwanese version has bands 2 and 28 in addition to the bands of the global version.

This submission became imperative with the various questions dropping in my inbox on usabilities in the US based on the quoted post. I hope others can sip too. kiss
Buyers who intend to use their devices outside the shores of Naija should find out the bands in their oversea destinations and choose version appropriately.

For Nigerian 4G networks,
MTN uses band 7 & 20
GLO is band 28
9mobile and airtel are band 3
NTEL is band 3 and 8
SMILE Is band 20
SPECTRANET & SWIFT are band 40

Having highlighted the above, the useful 4G bands in Nigeria (for now Sha) are 6 (bands 3,7,8,20,28 and 40).
Taiwanese version supports 6(ALL)
Global version supports 5 (all but GLO)
Chinese version supports 4(all but GLO and SMILE)


For those willing to use it outside naija
Buy the Chinese version if your destination requires bands 34, 39 or 41
Buy global version if your destination requires bands 4 or 20
Buy Taiwanese version if your destination requires bands 2,4,
20 or 28


Kindly note that these are just 4G bands and have nothing to do with 2G or 3G networks. 2G and 3G of all networks in Nigeria works on all the 3 versions

all versions are available. Chinese and global versions on aliexpress, gearbest and other Chinese sources where most touts source from and the Taiwanese version is on amazon kiss

*You can order for the Chinese version (otherwise known as global Rom) if you won't be using smile.Ng, (4G network)

*You should order for the global version if smile.Ng 4G is a priority for you.

*You must order for the Taiwanese version if glo. ng 4g network is a priority for you.

Otherwise, the global rom and global version pretty much works with MTN 4g, Airtel 4G and Etisalat 4g.

Note that these whole band issue doesn't affect 3g, edge or GPRS networks. You will still get glo and other service providers' 3g and EDGE network regardless of whether you buy global rom or global version.


The phone can be repaired in Nigeria just like any other phone. It doesn't have any outer space technology in it. As long as you can get the faulty part, a good repairer should do the job. Check out RepairPalng here on the thread.

You funny o, so because you are in the global market you should know better right? Taiwan version don't necessarily mean "non global" version(eg the redmi note 3 SE ) it just supports more LTE bands like glo band 28.

You will do well to go look up the products you sell on google thoroughly and their different versions/variants.

I have always wondered why we call the Chinese version of redmi note 5 Global Rom when 'rom' isn't a hardware but the software OS that has been flashed into the phone; same software that global version runs on. Should we then begin to call the global version global rom?
