it's code language i guess but one can still understand what he's trying to say.
good information

There shouldn't be a difference in terms of HDR capability. If you should find hints that that's not true , feel free to share them.
The only differences between tencent and WW should ly in networking capabilities. The tencent version supports less LTE bands (might be a concern in rural areas) and a lower max. LTE speed (I don't know who cares about that, but I don't get gigabit LTE anyway, nor do I want to pay for it). Moreover it doesn't support 4x4 MUMIMO and WLAN ad. All in all it's not a big deal.

You can get Chinese one and unlock bootloader to install global MIUI, a waiting time might be there (like 15days), but heard Chinese mi accounts might not need to wait.
As for price, I got mine from Amazon.it for €400, even tho it says €450 but that includes taxes which my country doesn't have, so only paid 400.

Buy a k20 pro from India

Hi,
I live in France and I'm looking for a k20 pro with the bands B20 and B28.
It seems that the Indians version of this phone is the one I need.
Do you know a way to buy the k20 pro in India with delivery in France?
Thank you for your help.

The Indian K20 Pro does NOT have either LTE band 20 or 28.
This is the official Indian website, scroll to the supported network bands.
https://mobile.mi.com/in/redmi-k20-pro/?RNType=product&product_id=redmi-k20-pro
Oh! I was thinking that I'll find those bands in this version ...
Only hope is an European release I guess...
Thank you for the tip
i think the difference between china and india version are the widevine L1 certification and the poco launcher as a stock launcher, also the package of india version is different
GApps, Google store and Google assistant are also available in the India version (I mean without touching anything)? Already included?
By the way, better go for the mi9t or the mimix 3?
Thank

mi mix 3 is 27 grams more heavy , doesn't have widevine L1 , also no headphone jack , 3200 mah , if you care about this thing , all the time Mi9T, 4000 battery, jack, widevine L1 , 730 is kind of snap 835 runs very good.
ah MI MIX 3 has OIS and better camera with gcam i think

There is no Tencent 12gb/512gb. The Tencent version IS the 8gb/128gb version.

That's weird... have you actually seen a 512gb Tencent logo version in person, like in a store or something? Or just online sales? If just online, they could just be using the same picture for both...
its just in grey market they bought it from china.

I wonder too whats the different, I pre-ordered 12GB-RAM/512GB Tencent Version from local store (in Malaysia). Saw in Youtube/Facebook someone unboxing 12/512 tencent version, box is hexagon shape with active cooler 2 & 30 watt charger right out of the box. I guess maybe the ROM is in china version

Does this mean that the Tencent 12/256 hardware is the same as the global version? (LTE Bands, 4x4 MIMO, 802.11 ad)

From what I've seen, all the 8gb/128gb versions share the same bands, and all the 12gb/512gb versions share the same bands, regardless of ROM... but then again there is a ton of conflicting info out there, and I wasn't even aware there was a 512gb Tencent model, so I really can't say for sure.

r u sure because I want to buy 512gb china version
Folks, i have now both versions at home from Tencent... the 8GB/128GB and 12GB/512GB... just happened so that first I ordered the 8GB version and then I noticed that LTE band 20 is missing... what was important for me. The shp told me that the 12 GB version has the LTE band 20. So I ordered the 12 GB and need to return the 8GB. But as I have them now both side by side, maybe I can answer some questions here until I will send back the 8 GB version.
The 12 GB had the Aero Cooler and 30W charger with 2 cables (USB type A to C, and USB Type C to C). The 8 GB did not come with this accessories. The cover from 8GB versin was a transparent plastic cover, the 12 GB version comes with this skeleton look case.. (forgot that name).

Try *#2263# into the phone dialer, see if it opens the hidden band selection menu like on other phones.

Ok thanks. It was worth a try. It works on Samsung phones but not all phones. There is usually a code though that opens hidden menus like that on all phones, they're just not always the same code.

Apparently, they are selling the 128 GB version on INDIA too. And it isn't the Tencent VErsion. It is the global version one, with the aero case, but with the 18W charger and no cooler.
Here's the proof.

If it actually comes with WW firmware natively, I'm planning on buying that one.

Don't really know. That's why I made a thread asking for info. Had no idea that one existed. Watch the review carefully. It's like a hybrid between the Tencent version and the global one.

Interested in finding out which LTE bands are available. Doesn't make sense from a manufacturing perspective to have all these different versions.

The Indian model is listed as having VoLTE and the only retailer I can find that has it listed is Flipkart. They list the model number as
ZS660KL-1A017IN
I'm guessing India is getting their own special version. IIRC Indian law requires a certain percentage of the phone to be manufactured in India.

I checked Kimovil yesterday regarding tencent version's supported bands for India, and it has all the necessary ones. Which leads me to believe that the phone will be very similar to the tencent version, with some better stuff like aero case and global firmware, but not that far off. For those without a ROG 2 yet it seems worth it to get it form there, but without expecting any additional bands IMO.

I didn't say it is.
I said that the tencent version already has all LTE Bands for India, so the "India version", however different it may be with the aero case, global firmware, etc., most likely won't have a change of LTE Bands. At least that's what I think.

ROG 2 ZS660KL-I001DE support for B20 LTE

When I looking for Asus ROG 2 Phone in EU (with 128GB) I only find the ZS660KL-​1A050EU. This version of the ROG 2 don't support FDD-LTE B20 aka 800MHz which means it is useless and you need to go for the 512GB version.
Now they sell in Germany a new 128GB version I001DE. I can not find any information about this version but it looks like this version support 800MHz LTE.
If someone got this version, can u confirm this?
