I’m looking into switching to this and wanted to see if there was a particular site or vendor that was reliable.
Based in IE but I figure the standard EU firmware would work fine.

For shipping globally, I think most people use Wandamobile. Their global phones typically ship from Hong Kong. In the EU, people also buy from AverageDad tech store but I’ve noticed his prices are usually higher than other retailers.
I’m from Ireland and bought a Global 15U. Got it off Wondamobile couldn’t recommend them enough and incredibly fast delivery via Fed Ex.
I might be wrong but from what I can tell, Wanda mobile global version ships without the power brick where as averagedad version I seen him say it ships with the power brick even though they both appear to be the Hong Kong global version.
I’ve been very tempted myself to get one.
If the phone is coming from Hong Kong, then it should have a 90W charger in the box. I’m in Canada and I used Mi4Canada which also ships Hong Kong models and it came with the charger in the box.
This is what I thought also but reading some of the questions on Wanda the replies only mention the cable and doesn’t mention the power brick.

Hmm, that is strange. Then I’m not so sure 🤷🏽♂️
It would be weird to take the charger out of the box and then ship it especially if it’s the same region model I got. Just for reference, attached a photo of the box and contents list of the Hong Kong model with me. Adapter is clearly listed, as does the Hong Kong Xiaomi website. If it doesn’t have the adapter, then it didn’t come from Hong Kong I would think.

Yea that’s odd. Maybe the staff at Wanda just made a mistake and didn’t list the charging adaptor. I know averagedad said they included the charger as it was the Hong Kong version.
Since it’s been mentioned.
Did you get a charger in the box from Wandamobile or did you have to buy one?
As it’s the Hong Kong version the 90watt charger was a welcome addition in the box. And even better it’s Ireland/UK pin.
You’re a legend. Cheers!
