Where to buy Mi Max (original version)

Anyone know where I can still buy the original Mi Max (not version 2 or 3) from a trusted seller? I can only find them in eBay from a seller in HK but now sure if they are selling genuine or fake Mi Max. Price seems to good to be true (around USD$180 for 3GB/64GB).
Thanks!

Just think about it... Who's gonna fake already so cheap Mi Max!?
Good point, but I'm thinking the seller may be trying to liquidate inventory of fake Mi Max. Has there been any reports of fake Mi Max ever since the genuine version was released in 2016?
Would you think the Mi Max 2 would be better than Mi Max? Reason I'm opting for the original version is that there's an official Lineage OS 15.1 available already plus the hardware specs are a bit better.
Thanks!

No fake Mi Maxes were ever reported.
Where did you see original Mi Max official Lineage OS 15.1 available!? Official Mi Max development is dead!
Do you see hydrogen there? https://github.com/LineageOS/hudson/blob/master/lineage-build-targets#L4-L15
Thanks for the info on fake Mi Max.
My mistake about LOS 15.1, I meant 14.1 as I found a version here: https://download.lineageos.org/hydrogen
Thanks for the link to github, it's a good and quick resource for me to find official LOS supported devices.

coming from Oneplus 3

Hi guys. I am planning to sell my oneplus 3 after almost 2 years. I wish to get the mi mix 2 but I am confused. Are there more versions of them? Not size wise, but models. I noticed that some ROMs here are for the [CHIRON]. which one is that? Is it just the codename for it, or is it an specific model? I will be getting the 6gb version with 64gb storage. Any opinions on the device are welcomed. Thanks!

Chiron is the code name for all variants of the mi mix 2.
The only diferent versions are the full ceramic body, which has 8Gb of ram or the regular version, which has 6Gb of ram, other than storage variations

M-Pen Where to buy?

Hey friends,
I pre-ordered my Mate 20 X today. I'm really excited for it. I am importing it in Canada.
I'm also interested in purchasing an M-Pen, is anyone else doing the same? Any idea where to buy it? Will any version of the M-Pen work with the phone?
Thanks

Where did you pre-order from? I see that the lowest price that I can find is on banggood.com
What version are you getting??? Is it a global ROM or a Chinese ROM?

Hey, yeah I wanted to support a Canadian company so I went through PDA Plaza. Didn't really care about the price.
I really struggled to pick which version of the Mate 20 X, because a few years ago I imported a spec'd out Chinese Mate 9 6 GB 128 GB. Turns out two years later with heavy use, I've only used up about 25% of 128 GB. Everything I do is in the cloud or gets backed up by the cloud, so I don't need the storage. The extra ram would be nice but I don't really trust Huawei's ram management to justify the extra cost. My Mate 9 still does everything I need with 6 GB.
So that being said, I decided to go with the entry level Mate 20 X with 6 GB and 128 GB, Phantom Silver, Chinese model.
Dude, if your waiting around for the Global Model, I would recommend giving up. Its rumored, so take this with a grain of salt, but I heard that the Mate 20 X is only being released in China. If a Chinese model is a dealbreaker for you, then you might want to consider the Mate 20 Pro, which is launching almost everywhere except maybe the US.
I found this. They also have a lot of other accessories too.

I think roms and xiaomi policies scared the sellers. XD

That's also what I think
Yeah, weird thing about that model. One day I bought one from some AliExpress seller, 2 days later it went from 310$ to 380$. Guess I bought it just in time.

Someone is salty.
I find the Max 3 to be one of the best phones I've had so far. But this is coming from someone that loves big screen / battery phones.

I agree... I got the three Mi Max. The third is clearly the best one.
I've the 2 and love it. Have just ordered the 6/128 from tradingschenzen as the bigger screen area, better camera and faster proc are all really appealing. My only worry is the lack of custom roms (currently rocking msm extended and love it on the 2) but once I can root for adblock, afwall and debloating I'll be happy.

Worth buying now? Coming from Mi Mix 2

I found a used OnePlus 5t for 167 USD but i don't know if I should buy it, and then sell my actual phone Mi Mix 2 for for 222 USD. Do you think it is worth this trade? I don't know if this will be an upgrade or a downgrade...

Sold my mix 2 and got a pretty good deal for oneplus 5t lava red 8/128gb. No regrets whatsoever.... Light weight, cosmetically more appealing, superb cameras, OLED panel, 8gigs of Ram.... I'm loving it ?
