I work with jumia and I have never bought that mansard insurance. The only insurance u can truly give urself is a case and screen guard. As for how it works. U buy it and Jumia will send u an e-format insurance card that insures ur device. U can take ur device in case if there's a liquid or screen damage to any mansard insurance office nationwide and they'll replace it if it's within the terms and conditions of the insurance.... cool
You can always contact me on 070three1080two87 for any jumia orders. wink

So..my redmi note 5 AI morphed to twins.
1. Ebay purchase rose gold 210 usd.

2.amazon purchase black .205usd

Apart from the lamguage diff on the sticker..observed a slight difference in the notification leds at the top right...it appears the 2 devices aint exactly 5he same..will have to power both to confirm if glo 4g sim works on both...wahala

Btw..the black redmi note 5 really kicks ass..my good ol oneplus 5 is obviously intimidated.

The one you bought from amazon, is it the SH model? Some sellers actually sell the SH model that supports Glo 4G. I bought mine too from amazon at the rate of $205 which is excluding shipping. I should have it by next week. It's black and SH model too.

That's why i indicated that some sellers on amazon actually sell SH. I bought mine from Phone Zone and they confirmed that it's the SH model they sell for both 64 and 32 GB. Mine was also $205 free shipping by Amazon to my shipper's USA address.

Result:

After about four hours, my unlocked and rooted mi max 2 was locked by xiaomi after simulating lost mode on i.mi.com (Pictures attached)

I was online via a VPN. It would require my xiaomi registered phone number and network to unlock the locked device.

Conclusion

I can say with utmost certainty that Xiaomi rocks when it comes to remotely locking a device after it has been stolen and rendering it just an expensive brick in the hands of the thief.

Recommendations

Xiaomi could improve on the response time after activating the remote lock feature. I got a response time of about 4 hours. I wouldn't know if this is dependent on the Internet network availability /strength.

Esure one of the very 1st steps you take after loosing ur fone is to do a sim welcome back. Otherwise you gibe the thief enough time to come up with alternatives and explore all options.

Ensure you register an account with xiaomi and link your device to it, as soon as you buy a new or used phone. Keep your password very safe and don't you dare forget it .

Never ever save your mi account password on your phone browser. Some browsers have this feature automatically set up. Once you open the browser, the username and password is already keyed it and all one need do is just to click on log in. If a thief should open your browser in the stolen phone before you remotely lock it, he can access your mi account and even change the password.

Upcoming Experiments

Remotely wipe a stolen unlocked and rooted xiaomi device
Test if truly the find feature is inactive in an unlocked rooted stolen xiaomi device.

Stay tuned ladies and gentlemen. Lolz

What if the phone's GPS or data isn't on. Can the remote lock feature still work

Yes, the SG model won't support Glo 4G as i was made to understand. One of the seller's on amazon(cellmigo) that i wrote responded that they only sell SG and it won't support that band. It was only Mobiles International LLC and Phone Zone that sells the SH. I used PhoneZone because there was no TAX charged but Mobiles LLC charged Tax which i was running away from grin

You will not use only that as a yardstick for your purchase. That specification covers for all amazon sellers that's the reason the question and answer section is combined for all sellers as well. I took time to research on this and got to know that only 2 sellers sell that SH model except if there are more that i do not know of.
