I think as long as the phone is fine these "sacrifices" are worth it for a local point of support/warranty.

Ya their custom roms suck but all the China sellers do it too. Just unlock bootloader flash and lock back lor.

My wife's mi5s plus was from a China seller, got a slightly dented model that can't paste tempered glass properly, and seller ignore me on qoo10. Qoo10 no help also.

NSE at least u can go there bang table haha

They paste tempered glass for really cheap also $5.

well that's true. buying from local seller is better than overseas so if anything goes wrong, can always look for them. anyway, $659 seems to be the best price we can get right now considering that it cost 479 USD and after factoring in shipping + GST, it cost over $700(479*1.4*)*1.07 + ~$10 shipping = ~$727

What are your thoughts on the 128gb model tho? Worth the mark up?

It depends on whether YOU need the extra space or not.

Definitely need it. My mi mix 256gb left 140+gb only LOL. But is it worth getting the 128gb locally from qoo10 with voucher vs direct from Oneplus with forwarder?

This one should he China set. Since it says if you want sealed its Hydrogen OS. Unsealed Oxygen. But shipping is higher though so around there also as the 759 one.

Yup unlike xiaomi the flashing quite straightforward so no fake custom roms etc.. Should be ok ba

I tried searching ytd but couldn't find the official Firmware for download though. Granted I didn't search that hard. Makes me wonder if all the sellers in qoo10 are selling China sets.

Nice, they also got 1 year OP warranty. Anyone got experience dealing with them?

They may state 1 year warranty by OP, which is not wrong, but there is no guarantee OP will accept your warranty claim, since you purchased from third party, unless seller stated that they will cover shipping fees to and from China for warranty in 1 year. However, seller can still fly kite later and we can only suck thumb.
