So, I've been looking for evidence that the e5606 (with support for US LTE) is actually being offered for sale anywhere. So far, I've only seen the other two versions. Has anyone else seen it for sale?

I have been looking for it, too. Sony CS ****ing sucks and won't give me any answers about it. If you look at Sony Mexico's page, they note the M5 is about to drop there, and I think they use the same LTE bands, so they may be seeing the M5 E5606 before us. Might have to get one from Mexico.
I just found it on a web l i n i o . c o m .... There you can get the e5606. I'm going to get it soon too after like half year waiting for it.

I ended up buying the international E5653 version. On ATT my HSPA+ is blazing fast, but no LTE. I purchased from Expansys which actually showed ATT LTE as supported, but I'm sure it depends on your city. It's a shame. I love this phone so I'll probably just rock it on HSPA+ until I get something better.
I don't know if this is still of help to you but I got an M5 model this week and it is an E5606. I am not exactly sure how to check if mine is compatible with US LTE, though, or what that is even (I'm a total noob at this, I just came here to find a way to root this damned thing).
Why is mithycal or better than the other versions?
Just in case anyone is still interested. Amazon has these in stock now. I can confirm my E5606 works with my ATT LTE; just got it yesterday. I'm guessing they got a bunch that didn't sell in Latin America. IMO Sony should have released this in the states to begin with. I appreciate this phone so much more with LTE. Just gotta get Marshmallow now.

US LTE. It was released in Latin America and couldn't be easily found. The international version (E5653) doesn't support US LTE.

Yes sir (ATT). Like yours, it's already in route. Gonna get to the shop early tomorrow with anticipation... And fingers crossed that we can unlock it at HTC Dev. Last two ATT HTC phones have been unlockable...Hopefully its just the Verizon that is locked down.

Glad to hear that! Service rep told me it would ship between the 28th and 4th of next month, i got a UPS tracking number about an hour later, its currently on its way i cant wait!!. Yea im hoping its not blocked from htcdev. but if it is, i dont think we need to worry much as it looks like alot of devs are buying the device and there is also s-off work being done as well. Firewater may possibly work but it has a different SoC so firewater will have to be adjusted for that. So I dont think we will be locked down very long if htcdev dont work

U can try the Nexus franchise!!! Pure android!!! Different devices, different experience!!! Sony products ate pretty complicated as I used to have a Z1!!! LG is fine but I dont like the software, I dont know abt you!!! The samsung, they used to have bad support to the customer (updates...) but its ok now, pretty fast recently!!! But for any brands, I would prefer the international version which u can fine the brand new on Amazon- I mean from Amazon dealer not someone else!!!

Yes, you can use your phone with T-Mobile, but I'm not sure if the phone will work 100% with their data and network.
Someone will need to clarify on that for you.
For sure, you will not be able to receive updates through T-Mobile. Your phones are still ATT, so they require ATT firmware. In order to receive ATT OTA updates, you have to have an active ATT sim.
However, you can still use Odin to flash your phones with the latest ATT firmwares. You'll be able to find the Odin files here on XDA a couple weeks after a firmware is launched via OTA.

I currently have the mate 20 pro and it has the green screen issue. So... Sadly I'm sending it back, I was going to swap it for another though amazon advised me not to. They also refunded the accessories I purchased which supprised me. I now don't know whether to try to import a mate 20 X or settle for the 6t. I would be grateful if anyone with the 20x could help me decide and answer a few questions?
I haven't seen any threads about it. But has anyone had any issues with the screen?
I've read some people have had problems with the Chinese version, when looking at adverts how do I make sure the phone I'm buying is the international version? Most don't say they just give the model number.
Is there an 8gb/256 version of the international model? Does enyone have an ebay link for where I could get it sent to the UK?
Does anyone have any reasons why I shouldn't consider getting this phone?
Thanks for your help.
I don't have the phone (at least yet) but i'm following closely all threads because i'm very interested too and i never see anyone complaining about the gluegate, even a reviewer frankytech thinks its only targeting pro series because of the curved screen.
If you want to buy international version you need to check if the model is named EVR-L29, china model is AL00. There's no international model atm in 256/8GB variant. About sellers to the international, there's splendor, wonda, funkyhuawei, expansys and ebay. Probably more but i forgot.

Is it easy to add the play store? Are there any issues with Google services? e.g. Google pay? As I use that a lot.
I bought an xaomi tablet and that took a lot of effort to get Google app store and services working properly.
Also I was wondering does face unlock work OK on this phone? I know it doesn't have the 3d scanner.

I came from a OnePlus 6. Definitely get the 20 X if you like large screen phones. The X uses a Samsung AMOLED panel and is free of defects. I would buy the Global version if root isn't important to you. If it is then buy the Chinese version. I bought the Global version and have no issues with it. The 6gb/128 Global version is plenty fast. You won't see any difference between the 6gb and 8gb versions as far as speed or apps in memory goes, it's all pretty much a gimmick unless you're buying the 256gb/8gb version just for the storage size.

The storage was the main reason I ended up going for the Chinese version.
I'm worried about Google pay not working on Chinese phones but I'm hoping the rest will end up working OK.
Hopefully someone will work out how to rebrand it so I can have the best of both worlds.

I have the China 8/256 version. And although I was worried about getting it once I changed the language, keyboard, got Google play to work it's a great phone.. my wife is laughing at me saying it's too big but personally I love it. It's fast and smooth and the screen is amazing.
I've not tried Google pay yet. I was able to add my credit card but not my bank card strangely. I will try Google pay tomorrow and let you know.

So it's pretty much the same experience as a American phone?
I currently have boost mobile and I'm wanting to switch carriers but boost is refusing to unlock my sim card. They say I don't meet the requirements yet I bought this phone from them and have had service on it for well over a year. Their excuse is that since I changed my phone number, it hasn't been a year. I saw a few websites offering to unlock it but I need to know a reputable one. Android sim unlock dot com has one of the lowest prices. Any input would be great. TIA.

no idea man. motos always have been a headache for me. best thing to do is find a paid unlock site and pay for it with a CC so you can dispute the charge if they stiff ya. sim unlocks are rarely free and its usually when an employee goes rogue just before they quit/get fired LOL im betting that these unlocks are done by employees with a side hustle
