are the ones in Lazada safe?

coz the one i bought came rooted already.:eek::eek:

I can't comment because i never buy unofficial one before. Hehe. Problematic because Redmi Note 3 bootloader is locked by default, to even flash to the official rom you need wait up to 1-3 weeks for them to process your request to unlock bootloader so as to flash rom.

Only through reflashing of rom including wiping all data and storage, is the best protection you can have if buying from resellers.

I bought my set from reseller, indeed the reseller loaded with modified rom. therefore I have flash my redmi note 3 using the SP flash tool, no need to unlock bootloader.

Double check to make sure correct model if you bought from reseller as Redmi Note 3 and Redmi Note 3 Pro is exactly the same on the outside, only internally different.

Yes, but phone has non removeable battery. I prefer to have it cover for at least 1 year.
