After successfully dealing on AliExpress (albeit through one of the touts here) the following are my submissions
1. AliExpress standard shipping is not for the faint hearted. you must have the patience of Sarah and the wisdom of Solomon.
2. 3 weeks standard shipping is hypothetical. My order was made on the 6th of November, shipped on the 7th of November, despatched on the 11th of November. the thing no enter naija until 12th of December. Based on discourse here some people were luckier than I was with their orders, just prepare for the worse case scenario then hope for the best
3. The touts here are fantastic People. I'm probably Mr Protein0's worst customer my questions , queries were no doubt annoying, yet he answered them all respectfully albeit humourlessly.
"Despatched on the 11th of November and arrived 12th of December" Jesu shocked shocked shocked

You should have asked the seller to flash Chinese stable. Then it would have been easier to move to developer rom.

This unlocking process dey really annoying some times

I never knew things has changed...

I've used Redmi Note 3 and Note 3 Pro,
Mi Max and Mi Max Prime.

All came with Global Stable ROM.

And I flash all of them with Chinese Developer ROM without unlocking the bootloader... So I thought I can still do same on Mi Max 2

In fact I don't like unlocking the bootloader because of the advanced Security in a locked bootloader... But am left with no choice now because the phone just look very terrible to me without the Chinese Developer ROM

My opionion thou,asides frm the global stable rom,the note 4 4/64gb has,is the redmi 5 plus not a better version of the note 4 4/64gb?
It seems more like an updated redmi note 4 to me thou.
U have a point there, well remember me when the global version launches

I once paid $200+ for note 4 4+64gb. That's how they usually are when first released. Plus I think redmi 5plus could have been note 4xplus grin cheesy
Similar to note 4 but definitely an inch ahead
OK, my hands are up for the global launch

The three weeks standard shipping isn't hypothetical, as a matter of fact some of us have had orders delivered 11-12days from the day of payment in the past using this same carrier. The logistics is crazy these period and Nipost too can't be bothered to do their jobs efficiently.
