    Anyone have a link for a reliable seller for the mi 9t and mi 9t pro that is a genuine (not k20 pro flashed) and cones with a UK plug?

    Don't think any come with a UK plug, just an EU one with an adapter. Honorbuy are reliable enough, bit dearer though.

    Thats a woeful price for 9t pro 64gb

    Wouldn't be buying at that price myself (I got the non Pro) but OP asked for reliable and thats about as reliable as you will get and works out around the same price as honorbuy after you add on their €23 shipping cost.

    Mine has now left London! (Ordered 13 days ago, 9T Pro 6/128GB, €354 all in)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭roper1664


    9T (not Pro) is working out at €294 from Honorbuy with shipping. It's €279 with shipping from the amazon.es link quoted in a previous post. So it's looking like amazon.es is the best option for the non-pro version?

    And apparently out for delivery now, anyone know who does the deliveries for Skynet in Ireland? DPD would be ideal, they've been out to me twice this morning already :o

    Mine arrived in London an hour ago. How long were you waiting from when it said it was in London?


    Just got stung with customs on another phone from gearbest (Mi A3) :mad:

    Considering grabbing this over the next few weeks but just wondering how it would compare to a mi max 3 which I have as my current handset?

    Got it late last night and have had a little bit of a play, screen is lovely, device is nice and solid, build quality seems very high, MIUI will take some getting used to, gesture control is a bit different from my samsung. I've chucked Nova on it straight away, I'm a single homescreen + app drawer person. Everything seems easy enough so far except Youtube Vanced didn't play nicely last night (can't remember how I fixed it) and the icon packs have taken a couple of goes to work so far.

    EGlobal sent a despatch mail to me on Oct 14. Still no sign. Courier says they have not received it.
    Hopefully yours arrives quicker.

    I ordered the non pro version for 260 from eglobalcental last night. Hopefully it arrives promptly. Paid through PayPal so at least I'm somewhat insured if it doesn't arrive.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭hots


    This is it

    Yeah I'm on 10.3.2, I'd say it'sa 9t vs Pro thing


  • Registered Users Posts: 830 ✭✭✭nevelator


    I'm running MIUI 10.3.11 on my 9T.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭roper1664


    I placed an order for a 9T this morning from amazon.es

    I also ordered a case from China, so won't have it for a few weeks. Will the case that comes with the phone do an ok job till then?

    Yeah I'm kind of annoyed I ordered another case, I went for the red colour and the black case goes well with it... I've ordered a cork case and not so sure the cork will go well with the red.

    not been too impressed with the battery life in this so far

    in fact theres been times charging where it has just stopped charging altogether

    today i did a few things

    1) I turned Location Services off (even with GPS off it seems you are still being tracked via 4g)

    2)I went to to dialer and typed: *#*#4636#*#*

    then on phone information 1 and 2, change preferred network type to LTE/WCDMA

    3) I removed most of the xiaomi apps from it ( and a couple of google ones too)

    Ive seen a fast improvement and its charging fine with fast charger now, unfortunatley the first 2 steps seem to have to be done every day & every reboot


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,115 ✭✭✭Pacifico


    Is there a way of expanding whatsapp messages or emails on the lock screen without unlocking the phone?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 660 ✭✭✭popsy09


    Purchased today off eglobal , 350 with the insured post and cover

    Once its here before Xmas I don't mind


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,932 ✭✭✭ActingDanClark


    Mi 9t pro or pocophone? Looking to buy soon...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,683 ✭✭✭Subcomandante Marcos


    Mi 9t pro if you're picking between the two tbh.

    My mi 9t (non pro) dispatched from Hong Kong Today. The wait begins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Andrea B.


    Hi,
    1. Does any one have regrets / caveats buying the Mi 9t 6/64 with folding case €269?

    2. Any reasons why I should not use honorbuy at the benefit of this price?

    3. Is the honorbuy shipping insurance advisable?

    Many thanks

    Where are you seeing that price?
    All I see is 282 plus 23 shipping not including the case
    Shipping insurance is a waste of money
    Use PayPal and if package is lost claim back through them

    Anyone who bought through eglobalcental did you get SkyNet as the courier?
    How long between the initial notice that it was dispatched from Hong Kong to it arriving?

    Cheers.

    How are the quality of these China phones?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,627 ✭✭✭tedpan


    How are the quality of these China phones?

    All phones are 'China phones'

    As mentioned several times, the 9T/9T Pro are amazing quality and have top end performance.

    Hi ted, if memory serves my right you hav or had a OnePlus...was it 6t.
    Seeing as I have a 6t do you know how these would stack up against OnePlus?

    Performance, quality and battery, very similar. I definitely prefer oxygen though. Next phone will be a xiaomi if they're still half the cost. I paid 699e for my 6t McLaren

    Took my one for a drive on Thursday , unfortunately it was on the roof of the car .Found it with help from Google maps on a very busy junction and yes it was mangled .
    Another one on the way from Honor buy .
