Let me tell you something about JTBC. I bought my previous Redmi 5 plus from them, turns out it was flashed with a fake Global ROM 9.2.7. I cannot update it or unlock bootloader at all. The functions were all okay though

Lol now I don't know to get from them or not

Very annoyed with JTBC. Mine was on hold too and they only replied a simple ‘YES’ after I dropped them a message on 1st June asking if the stock is in. I don’t feel confident with their reply considering on how they managed enquiries. I’m thinking of cancelling my order and buying from somewhere else. Really 便宜沒好貨。

Like that buy from RWM better for a peace of mind, at least they have a long reputation already and the set has local warranty too.

Just hooted one gold set from RWM earlier. Only left gold according to the guy. There was another guy who reserved one set and came to collect at the same time as mem

Actually the gold looks okay, at least won't show fingerprint stain easily.

I see some hands-on photos of the black Redmi Note 5, it collects fingerprint stain easily then very obvious too. Think it doesn't have oleophobic coating on it, like the Redmi Note 4X.

Which seller in Lazada besides mi store which is selling at rrp is offering 280 for a set with local warranty?

Frankly speaking, why must buy from rwm only ah, you related to them is it ?

Anyway, aliexpress no need sales from SG, since its buyers are from eastern europe, the sales confirmed higher than any shop here, so you can continue to buy from rwm =:p
I'm not affiliated to rwm in any way. Just offering my 5c. I think it's worth paying $25-30 for a year's warranty
