Xiaomi Mi Max review: Hulked up

06 June 2016
Goodbye Alexander Bell, hello Tim Berners-Lee and Ray Tomlinson. The inventor of the telephone would not have approved of the hulking 6.44" but the Xiaomi Mi Max is the kind of device the pioneers of WWW and email would love it.

                          Xiaomi phones are great, but they, including Mi Max, do not support all the LTE bands. In my country, some operators make heavy use of Band 20 (800 MHz), so this means the LTE performance of Mi Max will be crippled because it does not have Band 20. So unfortunate:(

You can load the right software yourself, check my other comment on this page. Remember to unlock your bootloader first (don't worry, you can relock it again, and it doesn't void your warranty)

                                  Visit https://xiaomi.eu/community/ and download the latest ROM for your phone. Install TWRP (follow the instructions on their site) and flash the ROM through recovery. If you need help visit http://www.xda-developers.com/

                                      C'mon, Xiaomi and Microsoft.. either launch new Windows 10 Mobile version of these awesome phones or let buyers install it on them.
