lols, i am not trying to mock ya post oo bt its just funny, Krait na architecture wey qualcom used on snapdragon 800,snapdragon 801 n 805...if u re using a phone like mi max, redmi 4 prime or redmi note 3 pro, no b clones snapdragon processor cauz they use a different architecture oooo, most of the time qualcomm only used a special in house architecture for their flagship chipset like 805,800,801, d recently announced 835, the 820 n 821 used on mi5 n mi5s z based on Kryo architecture...... abegi, no put fear into some folks ova here

Actually i was not comprehensive in my earlier post,the other architecture i was looking out for was ARM,so if yours na snapdragon with ARM its a clone,according to snapdragon them selves,esp snapdraon 800,801 na dia the clones plenty pass

bros, lemme explain sumthin to u: chipset makers like qualcomm, samsung, HiSilicon (huawei subsidary), mediatek, broadcomm everyone of them use ARM licenced chipset microarchitecture with a set of instructions, as example, arm cortex a53 is a microarchitecture based on 64bit instruction, remember cortex a7 n a9 that was 32bit..... qualcomm actually use ARM instructions to make dia cpu, wen it comes to dia flagship ones like 800,801,805,820,821 exceptn been 808 n 810, snapdragon will now develop a custom architecture like Krait n Kryo for extral efficency n performance tuning...bt wen it comes to dia mid range n lower range cpus like snap 653,652,650,625 they actually produced it directly based on direct ARM instructions without modification, difderence z only in d manufacturing process i.e 10nm TSMC process, 14nm Finfet process e.tc, so bros all qualcom processor use ARM architecture there flagship been a minor exception....av u heard of BIGLittle architecture, that is what z used in snapdragon652,808,810 n what samsung use in all dia top range cpus i.e a cpu with a cluster of 4 cores a72 n 4 cores of a53, a cluster of 2cores of a72 n 4 cores of cortex a53 as used in sanpdragon 650 that powers xiaomi redmi note 3 pro...i hope u get d logic now

"Can i use different card to fund my alipocket?" yes, you can "without having any problem? " the worst case scenario is that you'll be asked to upload some documents to prove the ownership of the card.

"will the fund have an expiring date?" i once asked this question here, the answer i got was, "yes" three years

"between mi5 and mi max" my totally biased answer is mi max cheesy cheesy

Mi5 is a flagship... Remember Mi max is an upgrade of Redmi note 3 pro.. With better battery and bigger screen nothing more

Mi5 is better in every other department, processor is flagship, camera one of the best, battery is 3000mah that is standard.. Capacity at the moment.

Abeg Mi5 and Mi max are not in category

Upload the first page where you are asked to upload the bank statement, then upload the last page where you are asked to upload optional document. Hope your bank statement carries the logo and official stamp?

Is it the Visa AfriCard? If it is, the last time I checked, Visa Africard has some outrageous charges, though I don't remember the rates exactly.

By the way, how is it funded, in naira or dollars?

Did you find out the exact naira to dollar rate?

The current month is okay. In my case, I only asked them to print from 1st January to 18th January, and Aliexpress accepted it.

Guys abeg i dey confused somehow which one do u think i should go for between d mi5s 4gb 32gb or 3gb 64gb
I will say 3gb 64gb since Xiaomi uses one SIM slot for SD card.
I regretted not buying the 64 gb version of Mi max
