Looking to get the k20 pro not the mi 9t pro as I'm on virgin and don't need band 20.
Also the mi9t pro is more expensive.
Will the Google pay work on the k20 pro
Looking to buy from Ali express

Have a look on the German Amazon site, it's a lot cheaper than elsewhere in Europe. They should deliver to the UK, or at least they used to, it's been a few years since I've ordered something from there.

If you go with AliExpress then look at this guide, the part on fixing gpay should be relevant if you then change the ROM. Even if you flash the official global ROM you won't be able to relock the bootloader, so this should still be relevant.

I already have the mi9t standard I just want the sd855 for emulating purposes and the 4k 60fps
I'm trying to understand the comparisons and the best one to go for.
I've recently become aware of the phones since I'm now hunting one for my wife.
I got excited to watch a review about the Redmi K20 Pro until I understood it was primarily for the Chinese & Indian market, and it doesn't support band 20.
I'm in the UK so it looks like I must import one and be mindful of the lack of band 20. Importing is not an issue for me since I've done with my Xiaomi Max 3 when it first came out.
But then I started to get a little confused because the review was comparing it to a Xiaomi Mi 9T and other sites said they were identical. They're not though as the Redmi has a better CPU but it is however, the same as the 9T 'Pro'. I realised (especially because of the title of this forum!) that the two Pros are the same except the 9T Pro is for the European market. Please let me know if I'm wrong at this point.
So, now for me, it comes down to the price versus band 20. Does anyone know when the 9T Pro is being released if not already because I can only find it to pre-order?
Also, will the difference between the 2 phones only be the bands?
I get the feeling the 9T Pro is going to be more expensive, how much I don't know but if it's going to be long time before it's released, I will consider the Redmi K20 Pro instead.
If you can see what my predicaments are then I'd be grateful for any advice about this and recommendations.
Thanks very much.
So i bought the k20 pro a few weeks ago and received it last Friday. The LTE connectivity is good for me in the Netherlands.
A friend of mine bought the mi 9t pro last week trough dutch smartphone seller belsimpel.nl and received his phone yesterday.
The phones are exactly the same, hardware wise. Firmware wise they differ. The 9T pro firmware has support for band 20, like you said.
But in theory the k20 pro should be able to support it band 20 because there is no hardware difference.
At the moment it is not clear yet whether the European firmware can be installed on the k20 pro since it is Qualcomm proprietary software. (this is what i read somewhere on this forum, correct me if iam wrong anyone)
Perhaps someone will be able to find a solution for that, but i don't know for sure whether its possible.
I'm interested in buying the Global variant from Giztop. The X3 is 720$ and the Pro Variant is 900$. The specs look identical expect for the 870 and 888. One could also argue the 870 Is the better chipset due to the 888 Heating issues. Also I live in the united states, will the Charger included work in my country or will I need to get an adapter??
I have a x3 pro at the moment, i got the global variant, so EU adapter, i believe if u get the global version you get the EU adapter and need to use your own converter, if you want the 888 variant go for it, since the only main difference is the specs and storage, camera is the same, its up to you, you can also check some sites, but the specs remain almost the same, regarding to the adapter as i said, you can ask the retail / the site your getting it from, if its possible to include an USA adaptater or sell it with the USA charger
And for the heating issues, i don't have those as people sometimes say, if you're looking for root / install custom roms or other stuff, this phone is not for you since there is no way to root or develepment, get instead mi 11/mi 11 ultra that is farily the same price or even cheaper
Is the Find X3 eligible for the Android 12 beta, or is that for the Pro version only?
I'm curious if the Vivo x60t Pro+ and x60 Pro+ have the same firmware? As far as i know, they only differ in one camera, but looking online, i can only find firmware for the base model, but not one specifically for the t-model.
Most likely. Cant see them making an entire firmware for a camera that probably uses the drivers from the other.
I'm considering purchasing this, but Im worried about vivo policy of not supporting unlock because it requires root. so think unlocking is realistically difficult?
I don't know much about x90+ but considering that unlock was only possible on X80 pro on the 1st version of W10 models (12.0.10.5) using modified software and requiring some kind of 'hack' (sending 2 files at the same time from 2 terminals) and that this exploit was fixes basically for every single release after, I'd say that root isn't going to happen on x90 (at least not using the same method)

Have you purchased it? I am also considering buying it from China. Need unlock, root and lineage on it

I am considering purchasing x90 pro+ and the Xiaomi 13 Pro. However, I think I will have to purchase it with Xiaomi 13 Pro because of the unlock.
Root seems to be possible on vivo x90 pro+ :

Be careful with frequencies and bands. Not all are supported by Xiaomi in China. Vivo does.
@vendetta17 thank you for your answer.

If you are european, careful. Check you carrier bands as Xiaomi tends to miss at least one major 4G band lately.

There is no unlock method written inside the contents.
Would it be possible to flash gapps without unlock?
I am really thinking about buying the Chinese version. I will keep the original os (no root) but I would need at least to install gapps. Possible?

Yes . You can install gapps without root .
Does the X90 Pro+ have 3D face unlock?
Can someone who already owns the device confirm whether "OK Google" or "Android auto" work with the device?

Thanks appreciate it. Let's hope they will release the "global" version soon.
on x90 pro+ i see in dev options OEM Unlock and is described as bootloader unlock, can anyone confirm that I can install funtouch on it once is released>?

I doubt it. OEM Unlock option is indeed there, however the actual commands in fastboot to unlock the bootloader do NOT work.
Unless Pervokur pulls another one of his magic tricks bootloader unlock will NOT be possible.
Besides that, converting your device from OriginOS to Funtouch bares a huge brick risk and certain things are not working on the x70 pro+.

As will I. I'm not going to go through another two years of not having root access to a device that cost me over AU$1200 to buy outright.

I'm confident one of the developers here will create a rooting solution soon, if they haven't already, especially when from all the reviews I've seen so far about the X90 Pro+ IMHO it's going to be one of the top five selling smartphones this year.
