On the issue of flash memory - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hi, I am a Chinese user. I bought Redmi note 4X when found a "Jingdong special edition" only 16g ROM, Soc is also Qualcomm 625. Price is 799RMB, I later checked the information, this version is called "electricity for special edition."
I would like to ask, this power for special edition in addition to the Chinese mainland, as well as in other areas on sale?

When will Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 launch in India?

When will Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 launch in India?
Will it launch with a Qualcomm CPU as opposed to the Mediatek CPU found in the Chinese model?
I am interested in buying this phone when it launches in India and with a Qualcomm CPU.
If it launches with Mediatek CPU, I ain't buying it..
"Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 with Snapdragon 625 coming to India in January"
Xiaomi is only allowed to sell Qualcomm products in India according to a source i found; when i was looking on why Xiaomi was banned from selling MediaTek based products (has to do with patents violations).
I want to know, i have a redmi note 4 mediatek. In india it'll be launched with quallcomm. If in the future there are custom roms for the quallcomm model, can i flash it on the mediatek model? Or will i need different roms? Cause if it ain't the same rom i'm going to sell mine

You can't flash roms that were made for the SD version of the phone on the Mediatek version unless you want to brick your device and currently there is no SD version of this phone anyway.

Chinese or Indian version?

So here is the question. I' currently looking to buy a RN4 but I'm between Chinese and Indian version. Apparently, Chinese version has a much much better build quality (no plastic parts, it has chamfered edges, antenna lines) compared to Indian version. Indian version has a plastic on top and bottom and just doesn't look as pretty as Chinese version. BUT, I like flashing custom ROMs (that's why I'm here), and AFAIK, Snapdragon version SHOULD have better support for custom ROMs. So what is your suggestion? I'm planning on waiting (maybe month or two) to see how ROM development goes for both versions, and then make my chioce. What are your thoughts and predictions?
There's said to be a new model coming out in a few days, probably called the Note 4X in China and the Note 5 elsewhere, so best to wait a bit. Rumor is they'll both have a Snapdragon chip.

I hope you're right, I've seen leaks of the device gsmarena.com and there they show 4GB of RAM and Note 4X as device model, but researching some numbers I've realized it uses the same processor that is used in Indian variant rather than Snapdragon 653 everyone was talking about, so that leaked device might just be Indian variant of RN4 since it did leak before Indian variant was actually released.
Yes, I've noted that sometimes Xiaomi "leaks" details of a new model, but then the actual specs don't match up to the leaked details. So you have to check carefully. Will the new model really have Gorilla Glass4, for example? We'll see.
If your interested in the Snapdragon model its probably best to wait for the China SD model as the LTE bands are very limited on the India SD.

sd625 version should have more consistent battery life(10hours sot). Just wait few days , new china version should be same as indian version .
625 is the newest version, much powerful than 810, 801 and 650. It's confirmed now, 4x uses 625 soc. That would be battery efficient and good quality camera. Much better than helio x20....I will sell my mtk and buy sd 625 Redmi note 4x hehehe

Question regarding Redmi Note 4X Bands

Hello fellas! I have been doing some research on the Redmi Note 4X and considering buying one. I currently own a Redmi Note 3 Pro and have LTE with MetroPCS. Based on the Taiwan Xiaomi website they have the Black Matte 3/32gb model which includes the Band 4 (the band my RN3 has to use LTE). I have no doubts that this model will indeed be compatible with MetroPCS; however, I am also debating on buying the limited edition blue/turquoise Redmi Note 4X. It is exactly like the Black Matte 3/32gb model except I do not see in the description that it comes with Band 4.
I have provided links and pictures of the two models I am speaking of. Can somebody help me confirm if the blue/turquoise model has band 4 or is that band only available in the Taiwan version of the Redmi Note 4X. Thanks guys. P.s. I have already used WillMyPhoneWork and the results said that the Redmi Note 4X would work (I attached an image)

Try at mi.com or flipkart or if you've enough time already visit a nearby Sangeeta mobile stOre or any kinda offline retail stores.. They'll probably hold rn4 stocks.

Xiaomi Note 4 DS LTE VS Xiaomi Note 4 PRO

Dear All I have a choice between these 2 but have completely no idea whats the difference. They both have Snapdragon 625 and 4GB RAM and 64GB ROM is there any other difference? like camera lens or maybe quality of the RAM?
thanks for help
There is no such phone as Xiaomi Note 4 DS or Xiaomi Note 4 PRO.
There is Redmi Note 4, Redmi Note 4 Global and Redmi Note 4x.
Variant with Snapdragon 625 SoC = codename Mido, and variant with Mediatek Helio SoC = codename Nikel.
There aren't any big differences between them, what camera sensor, screen and fingerprint manufacturer you get is completely random, homever if you need Band 20 LTE you should buy Redmi Note 4 Global, because Redmi Note 4x is missing this band.
You should buy model with Snapdragon 625 SoC, overall it's far superior. (amazing support on XDA, no overheating, much better battery life compared to Mediatek)
actually its nice that you are from Poland because Im too and below you will find some links to polish shoe at which they offer these under those names

You want the one from first link then, it supports LTE 800MHz which means it's Redmi Note 4 Global, and since you are from Poland you need this LTE band.
