From the reviews of 2 buyers in these 2 days, it looks good. :)

I would suggest a Self collection.

Also, call them to check what rom is their set and would they install the official global rom for you just to make sure it is not preloaded with a "fake" global rom that cannot be updated and that you need to flash it yourself at home after collection.

Based on the Q&A:

hi our stock is limited. Only 2 stock lef. yes it comes with global rom and playstore. the warranty covers hardware and software but not human damage

Also, with 80 coupon on Q10, the resultant price of 330 is the lowest i've seen the 128 gb go so far i think?

Yes! The cheapest for 128 at $330. Worth every cents to buy it. :s22:

The statement, "Global rom with playstore" means 2 things now after so many incidents have been reported. :o

It is either preloaded with 3rd party / hacked global rom or the official Xiaomi global rom. :s8:

That's why it is good to call the seller and check but again, provided the seller knows what rom they are preloading and the implication of 3rd party / hacked rom to the non tech savvy buyers!

question is, how does one gert the voucher?

I suspect some of these sellers don't know that they're not loading the official rom. Oops! Not that I'm an expert or anything, in fact, have never done it before.

Any way to get to the data usage screen easily? I tried finding an option in settings but can't seem to find any, the only method was clicking the notification settting which I want to disable.

I couldn't get it too. Haha.

Yeah. Some sellers don't know what they are installing as far as rom in concerned. Sad!

I'm more to pure Android, but the thing is not OTA, and have to do it yourself. I don't want to spend time on doing it (backup, flash, restore). Hence buy Max that have global ROM.

They are Chinese set. They stated that they will open the set to install GooglePlay/Services. That means they will preload your set with Official Xiaomi Global rom with the hope that they don't anyhow pre laod a 3rd party/hacked /custom rom..

Call them to remind them to load official global rom for you and not any hacked rom for you. :s13:

For your info: The latest 2 versions of rom for 128 are 8.1.9.0 (Jan2017) or 8.1.6.0 (Dec2016).

That I don't know how fast the can cum. I never ordered from shopee before.

Should be within 4 days bah.

If you want it fast, message the seller that you want to self collect tomorrow but they cannot waive off the shipping fee for you.

Self collection can be done tomorrow as long as they received your order and payment is cleared today.

I ordered a Mi Max from them via Qoo10 last time. The moment the payment is cleared. I call them for self collection and I collected my Mi Max the very next day. Super duper fast rather than wait for delivery which may take up between 3 to 4 days.

In fact, if they are ready. You can even collect it anytime later today after they have flashed it to global rom.

Flashing to global rom takes 15 - 20 minutes nia. :)
