Hi guys,

Not sure if this has been asked before, but I was wondering, is this phone capable of 4G+? Never had any luck locking into 4G+ (im on Digi btw) so I assume the phone is not compatible with 4G+ network. But during my overseas trip recently, it manage to connect onto a 4G+ network the whole time I was there (see attached). But now back in Malaysia, back to only 4G.

Online search comes back with nothing. Be great if there's some kind of explanation.

Haven't seen a Xiaomi that supports Malaysia 4G+

Xiaomi also does not work with the telco here in Malaysia for VoLTE compatibility. So far only Huawei and Samsung, aside from Apple.

Not in Malaysia. A lot of phones have VoLTE in India and China Telco, but not necessarily for other part of the world

Your car and auto gate uses IR, not RF?

GPS should work even without SIM card. Nothing that telco can do to help your GPS.

Assisted GPS uses the telco's cell towers to get a faster lock.

Faster lock but cellular network is still optional, especially if the phone already had GPS lock.

For current 4G in Malaysia, band 3 and 7 is mandatory.
Upcoming band is band 8.
Webe uses band 5.

According to Mi A1 paper inserts, it supports band 1/3/7/8/20/38/40.
It will not be a suitable device for Webe if information is correct

Use Do Not Disturb mode when you're gaming and turn off visual notification in DND option.
