Looking for glass protector and flip casing. Where's a good shop to buy especially the glass protector.

I've done some comparisons between the Indian and China Note 5.

China Note 5 LTE 1/3/5/7/8
India Note 5 Pro LTE 1/3/5

Band 3 is a must for LTE in SG, Band 7 is used in addition for Singtel and M1 if I'm not wrong.

As for the dimensions and placement of buttons and ports, it seems to be identical for both versions. In other words, we shouldn't have a problem buying screen protectors or casings.

Is my understanding correct?

Great! If you can, download an app and test the LTE band connections, I find 'LTE Discovery' very useful for Android.

Yeah is gold color 32gb..gold color is the cheapest for all size.. I ordered a black 64 for 270.

Yeah, if I remember correctly, there was this $50 coupon off in Qoo10 some time back. You bought using that coupon?

Band 7 is for all the 3 telcos, singtel, m1 and starhub. For 4G LTE, band 3 or 7 is a must. Band 3 AND 7 is a must for continuous 4G (in mrt train, etc)

Am using a china redmi note 5...been 2 weeks now. Getting consistent 4G all the way.
