Gptech:
If you buy the Global rom ( Chinese version with Global rom installed), your bootloader will come unlocked. Trying to lock the bootloader is where you might have issues of bricking.
I know that, I asked because of the lanre316 question u answered

You are fine with updates, there's no cause for alarm, what you heard of is something totally different.
Is it possible for global Rom to be installed and bootloader locked?

macbeyland:
One of my items that were charged last week didn't show custom on tracking, but see the wrap on the package.

I was charged 3800 customs duty.

With this new custom issues now, someone has to budget 6-10K extra. cry

I think it's Global version is a default thing for Jumia Global vendors tho that 5 plus is already in naija.

Just checked. Many positive reviews but no one thought to mention the version lol

The Redmi Note 6 Pro i bought on Jumia was Global version and the description didn't even state it.

Asin, it's the custom issue Ayam not understanding why such high prices? What happened to 2-3k
PhonesRe: The Xiaomi Thread. by traecey(f): 7:14pm On Nov 08, 2018
henry007:
I was talking to grinface98 who bought Redmi 5 Plus.

Pretty sure he spent more than 53K of which shipping on Jumia is free and they deliver to door for that model.

Every buyer is spoilt for choice now.

The vendors on Jumia can reduce and increase prices at any time.

Some of their prices are better and some and not.
that's the 3gb variant and I'm not sure it's global version, a friend got 5+ black 4/64gb global rom at 53k during their Halloween promo stuff (shipping included)

Ocon:
if you like mail d PMG himself, he no go do anything undecided. the payment is real and not scam. I did more than Twitter and mail during my time, I even waited for a month hoping they'll pity me cos I was broke AF. They no even look my side

But there's a way you can reduce d payment to half d price attached Sha.
how please... We need hint
