Never had an issue with any XiaoMi phones from where I am, Asia, I can use my phone with practically any carriers in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand...
It's not incompetence, it's the country you residing in that restricts their band... So remember, when you point a finger, the other 3 points back at yourself...

Nice phone with a very good price, but how much more would it have cost them to put a multi-mode global band on that phone? Even though a nice phone with good specs, the absence of LTE bands in the US market makes it not very usable. This would have been a huge hit on every market if it had global bands, understanding there would be some increase in price as well.

I live in Northern-Europe and i have all 3 bands supported on my Xiaomi phone for 4G.
Event a B20 band that i really dont need but people have panic if they dont have it :D
And you cant really blame Xiaomi for the not in market in US. Thats something that US is in war with China in electronics and what not. And US market isnt that big to get there and eat up all the requirements asked for to be in US market.

Well, I'll still get it, because who needs 4G when 5G is around the corner.

Nothing extra it's screen is worst. Camera in low lights are bad. No fast updates. Op6 already got pie if you're saying flagship than treat it like flagship. No 4g support is a pure deal breaker. Who buys a phine without 4g now days.

They can buy the cheapest LTE hotspot enabled phone, such as Nokia 3310 and to use the pocophone. Much better option than the Palm companion

for a useless piece of junk?
Pls. check for radio coverage of Oneplus phones!
POCO is for kiddies only.
Just only has that SD845 an nothing more to offer,
here can you see useless even as a phone.
The flagshipkiller ... lol
w/ entry level screen and radio support and so on.
for nearly $ 400 just a bad joke.
