My conclusion for this Redmi 5 plus.

You will buy this phone is probably due to their battery life with quick charger for after market 3.0A charger.
The standard charger is 2.0A without any QC.
This phone for more into bigger screen and better grabbing on hand.
Better screen resolution with color, doesn't give you eye side pain due to usage in longer period.
Camera is good , but not built in image stabilization also same as Mi A1/5X, not as good in low light for hand shakes.
Music sound is awesome, loud and clear, much better than my Mi Mix 2.
Overall is cheap and good phone for late 2017 model.
Software Miui design for user friendly, unlike pure Google on A1, overall is less features than the miui 9.
This phone more worthy and what you pay for.

Anyway mine is come with Chinese rom

can install. but you are stuck with some chinese apps that cannot be uninstalled (not that you's use it either). if you can live with that then go ahead.

Can install google app.

Lol you welcome

Just decided to order the 3/32 local set from igadget at lazada.

Is there any way to check whether It is really MY set?

Haha, yeah, thinking of that, but it's just a secondary phone so keeping it for now

Buy from 11street. Rm809 - Rm80 coupon

Grab lor

Only 2. China rom n global rom. If you chk the rom version code, the last 4th and 3rd character shows either "CN" or "MI" to indicate either china or global.

Both china or global stable rom works fine. Only that china rom you need to install Google playservice, and manually remove unwanted china app. As long it is official rom, no need to worry.

And if you unlock the bootloader, you can switch to any official or custom rom.

mine 1 is china bought in Jan..

Fake is neither china nor global. From what i see, reseller modify china rom to become fake global rom. This happen before xiaomi launch rn5 & rn5pro in india. Meaning that before that time, no official global rom yet, but reseller take the 'initiative' to make their own 'global' rom to sell outside china.

I reckon that v 9.2.0.2 is the fake rom.

yeah, lazyman  to study all those
main concern is warranty
i bought at lazada gstore, rm808-rm38
now still rm 808 i guess

where? redmi 5 plus 3gb RAM/64gb storage?

Good deal! Mind sharing which seller bro? 
Just want to make sure it's MY set.

but it's 795 per your link? some credit card cash back? 

Very interesting seller.
Why want to limit to Peninsular only? Not like they ship the item by their own transport.

So this 730 means coupon with 10 or 15 percent? original xiaomi malaysia 64GB on 11str now is 795 right?

Congratz on getting a good deal! 

So, you got a genuine Malaysian set and not a re-flashed AP set?
I'll keep note of this seller and hopefully it comes on offer again in the future.

So long as you don't have problems when updating your ROM, should be Malaysian set. Heard a lot of problems with AP set, when updating the ROM.
