I can't believe it :) Finally LTE bands 20 and also 12 and 17 for travelling in the USA. Now this is a very interesting proposal and an good alternative to Oneplus 6 if you're living in Europe.

    Welcome to 2017, Xiaomi! With love, from Apple.

    In other news, Samsung is panicking.. And may delay Note 9 else it will be in a world of pain.

      The price is really competitive for the specs. Looks like Xiaomi is going to go ve OnePlus a run for it's money at least in China. Hope it launches in Nepal too, with that competitive pricing!

            is this phone using European Galileo satellites? Cause in other related articles it seems that it not only uses GPS but also Galileo.

              suarez92, 31 May 2018500 e for a Chinese brand without support and reserve parts... moreNot really, so far it is the cheapest phones with sd845

                No 3.5 mm headphone jack and still no IP68 support. Galaxy S8 is still a better option. TaTa Mi 8

                    Arvind7955, 31 May 2018They didn't bought 6X in India because they will bring 8SE. I hope they bringExplore edition to India under 30,000 rupees, becoz the real exchange will be more high since Indian currency is falling off a cliff vs dollar

                      Nice but what I'm really interested in is the SE..

                          Another chinnovated phone.Don't trust their camera comparison pictures (Complete B.S).They have the policy of making big claims,creating overhype by holding stocks.Nothing good to say about them.I know because I bought from them not long ago and sold it after a month.

                            Mi 8 SE is the real deal, if it's launched globally. Not to be surprised if they don't bring it outside China like the Mi 6X.

                              MI 8 SE is the real deal here.

                                Achillias, 31 May 2018The bottom bezel is so big.infra red face id and biggest screen on a face id phone must come at a design cost also dual gps

                                  Also Explore Edition has real FaceID (like in iPhone X). I guess 3D unlock in cheaper versions is more software based and is less reliable.

                                    500 e for a Chinese brand without support and reserve parts is CRAZY. I would never give that amount of money. Okay is between 200-300. You have way better alternatives for that price.

                                      Hello does it support B20 4G LTE band? I mean 800/900mhz?

                                        Was excited for this phone, but I'm more excited and interested in MIUI 10.
                                        Here's to hope that camera2 api finally gets enabled by default, along with Project Treble support since it will be based on Android 8.1.
