Hello,
I have read the question repetifly and will answer it.
Q: release date of the global MIUI ROM for the Mi 5s or Mi 5s Plus?
A: Never.
This device is a China only device. It will not update the existing Mi5 on the "global" market, that means wherever Xiaomi sells phones outside of China.

sure.
Before we start to have a Global ROM is needs:
Global ROM is released only if the device is officially sold outside of China in countries like India, Malaysia, Singapore etc... without any hardware changes.

You can always hope that the device gets launched in Malaysia or Singapore, yet this is very unlikely if Xiaomi doesn't plan to launch it in India first. People in these country already have the Mi5, a more expensive version of the Mi5 may not be sell good.

You ended up in the wrong section.
This is the Redmi Note 4 section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4
And that's a topic I posted in the Redmi Note 4 section: [ROM] MIUI 8 Global Stable ROM for Redmi Note 4 (MTK) - Released!
But all of this has nothing to do with the Xiaomi Mi 5s.

Also, Mi 5s has more aggressive pricing that Mi 5. I cannot get the 128GB Mi 5 with the same money I spend on my Mi 5s.
But, yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath when or if xiaomi will launch this globally.
Ah great That gives hope for a global rom!
Hey everbody,
The Mi 5S Plus got a Global ROM at MIUI website.
http://en.miui.com/download-315.html#464
Can we expect same thing at Mi 5S? I think the Plus edition is being selled on same countries of the 5.1" version.

Hi there,
I am currently thinking about getting the Mi6. After some research I read more than once in some forums across the web, that there might be a Global VERSION coming, naturally supporting more LTE bands, as they have done it before to other xiaomi phones.
Geekbuying already had a Global VERSION listed, others saying Xiaomi is trying to hit ground in Russia and Greece in the future.
Since I am pretty new to the ChinaPhone Area I would like to know if something like this sounds possible to you? In that case I would wait a few more weeks if something like a Global VERSION would pop up.
Thanks in advance :good:

Hello, I've bought a MI6 that already came with global version. If you buy it with other, you can download it here:
http://en.miui.com/download-326.html
It's a great phone with lower price, it worth it

Hi,
I did not mean the Global ROM. I meant a Global VERSION of the phone. The Global ROM does not unlock any LTE Bands.
It just felt like there are rumors about a different version of the phone coming in the future. That's why I asked if anybody knew something.

MI6 global version:
http://en.miui.com/thread-731235-1-1.html
Available here:
https://es.aliexpress.com/store/pro...a8a4ce16758051b7b-1502703643253-09604-UfYbAe2
Thank you, but it seems like they are defining Global Version also just as the Mi6 running the Global Rom on it. Aliexpress is not mentioning any different specs than the "standard" Mi6. The review is also just talking about the Global Rom on the "standard" Mi6.
Maybe I was just wishing that they might release another version of the mi6 running more or other LTE bands than the one which is out already. Too bad.
Global ROM - with more languages than English and Chinese - is available.
Usually it takes a little more time to come out (2 weeks to 1 month) but it is available for all Xiaomi devices.
It comes with Google Services and improvements for usability outside of mainland China, namely GPS.
Global Versions is on the hardware side.
It usually enables more LTE bands (e.g. Band 20 @ 800MHz on the Redmi 4X), brings an EU charger and is CE / FCC certified.
It has also the Global ROM pre-installed.
So we are waiting for a Mi6 Global Version ... even though it might not come. Just looked at the mi sites in Taiwan, Russia and Poland: mi6 is available but same specs as everywhere - no B20 band mentioned.
I really do not know if Xiaomi is going to release a global version of Mi6.
But OP5 has a bunch of 4g bands.
What do u think about OP5?
I read a review in miui forum. The guy has International version, which had english specifications on the box. I boughy Intetnational version from Gearbest. The send me Chinese box with global shop rom. So that means there is a international version but you have to clarify with seller. Or consider other phone.

Had the OP5 for a few days and send it back. It did not feel fully developed yet. The viewable expanding/contracting of pixels was annoying, Camera worse than advertised, Bluetooth did not work out of the box and the customer service with OP is a big ****up since I have been returning it. Its not worth the price it has. Most of it could be resolved by software, so it might become a better phone in the future. But the customer service is so annoying, that I wont be turning back to OP. Better no customer service at all and lots of money less

All the sellers [ gearbest, tradingshenzhen, etc. ] do not know about an international version supporting B20 yet. So sadly, there is nothing to clarify.

My point is these sellers unbox and flash shop ROM on Chinese Version then sells them as International Version to earn more money. You have to "clarify" this before you buy to make sure you get what you want and pay for.
In case of band 20, the only way to know is to try contact to people who has originally International version to confirm. I don't think these kind of sellers will tell you the truth.

Nope. There is a global version from Xiaomi but the only difference is the box is in english and EU charger included. Same bands.

Your point is wrong, the phone in the link I provided before is the original global version. There are no chinese letters in the back of the phone, only the CE logo and designed by xiaomi.

Gearbest international versions are fakes. It´s the chinese phone with the global rom installed by the shop.

Having said that - yes, the Global version IS different from Chinese with Global ROM.
I got the blue ceramic Chinese with Global ROM because I couldn't seem to find it anywhere as INTERNATIONAL.
Works well for me: Specs vis-a-vis bands etc

So Huawei announced the Huawei Mate 20 X, but in what countries is it going to be released? They are not very clear about that. Seeing the video's it appears to be a global release because all Google apps are already installed.
If you found a webshop please let us know here
Pre-order on Amazon UK, £899.99.
Edit: Sorry, I'm a 'tard, £899.99 for the plain Mate 20 Pro.

pdaplaza.ca (a Canadian company) has the 6/128 Global variant and 8/256 China variant for sale with shipping the first week of November. Can someone confirm there will be a Global version of the 8/256 model? With the Xiaomi Mi Max 3 the 8/256 was China only, while they also offer a Global version of their 6/128 model. Does Huawei follow a similar sales strategy of reserving their high end model for the Chinese mainland market?
Tweeted Huawei UK and they have said no release in UK (as of yet!!). Prices is listed in Euros so there is a Euro / Global version being released but have no idea in what regions. I also asked this but no reply yet.
Once again the UK is getting screwed ! Off to the black market to pay inflated prices and import tax (again ...) !!
Hi guys,
Any update on availability in the UK or Europe?
I am also looking for the Mate 20 X this phone it is amazing .
my daily phone is at the moment Samsung s5 it so terrible to use this phone and UI.
Huawei is so lazy, they announce the phone in London with euro price but doesn't list the release countries. Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro pre-orders are everywhere. I also asked many Huawei countries on Twitter, but no single response.

can the china variant be used on our canadian bands for 4g lte?
can the bootloader be unlocked on the china variant?
is it true that the 8gb version will ship with a free flip case and m-pen?
So I had a response from Huawei, which said:
"Thank you for contacting Huawei Support UK.
At the moment the Mate 20X is not available in Europe, we do not have official information regarding an ETA for the release, furthermore we cannot confirm with certainty that this model will even be released for the European market.
Please return to us, in the near future for additional information on the Mate 20 X model.
Meanwhile, of course, should you have any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us."

Does anybody have this model? (M1803E7SH)
On Xiaomis Taiwan site (and some other places) the M1803e7SH is listed as having a 12 MP (f/1.9, 1.4µm) camera.
B&H and Amazon.com are selling the same model, but they both list the camera as being a 12MP f2.2, 1.25µm camera.

Is it OK to buy the Chinese version or should I wait for global version?
my experience from p20 pro- i have both chinese and global and the difference for USA is no location sharing among family/friends in google maps, it is a google operational issue, everything else the same. The chinese one has esim, more huawei apps, baidu, etc.

Hi guys, i want to buy an Note 8 but here in Europe are some weird thigs going with the models! There is Xiaomi Note 8T (with NFC) witch Xiaomi says that is meant to be for Europe but there is also Note 8 without T but with the box with European countries ( the Asian version has an Blue box, the one that im talking about looks almost the same with Note8T and has all the European countries where it should work ) i dont like 8T because, yes, there are some difference, first i dont need NFC but secound, 8T is larger, heavier and uglier, it has a bigger chin so i dont really like it, also on Mi.eu Rom there is ginkgo supported, i dont know who is ginkgo and who is Willow! Can you help me guys? I can provide photos with the box if its helps you, thanks!

I know guys what are the differences but i asked if 8T and 8 with the white box are meant to be used in EU bcs Xiaomi says only about 8T that is for europe!
RN 8 is available as Global version with MI version of ROM... so you can use it worldwide where is available... MI and EU versions od ROM can be used everywhere outside Asia
RN 8 is available with MI Global ROM
RN 8T is available with MI and EU Global ROM
For example in Croatia are available both RN 8 and 8T, but I bought 8T because of NFC
