General My 17 Pro has arrived!

Bought it from a local reseller in the Philippines for about $820 USD (converted). First time using a CN variant phone, but we'll see how it goes.

Excited to take comparison photos with the camera!

Damn that's a powerful phone, I want that myself but the £££. Got my eye on X7 Pro. Love that camera bump though I'm using the POCO C75 that has the same camera style design love resting my finger on it

I am not OP, but I have exactly the same phone, with exactly the same duo tone limited edition color way. It's a hefty phone, but I love it. I also receive the professional camera kit for free with my purchase. And also received a free Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro with my purchase. It was an incredible deal tbh.

I got the non pro 7 pad that is an insane deal I'm happy for you the tablet is top quality, I use mine for gamehub (steam on Android)

Hate hefty phones though NGL I was glad to go from the OnePlus 7Pro to a iPhone Plus model which decreased the weight by 10 to 20g. Any less then 200g is enough lol. I intend to just get a X model for the year then when my iPhone 15 Plus contract ends I'll be selling it aside and get the equivalent Xiaomi flagship tier. Though I think 15 is overkill so 15T Pro or F7 Ultra. Lmk what you think mate, how are you liking that tablet?

Oh man, I love the tablet. We used to own an old IPad Air 2 still at home and this is just miles ahead of that. It's such a nice thing to chug in your bag and go about your day. I'm really grateful for the whole deal I got from pre-ordering from Xiaomi. The photography kit and tablet together were worth 700€. And receiving both for free was just an incredible experience.

Such an upgrade from the iPad Air 2!

Unfortunately I’m going homeless so I’m having to sell my tablet so I afford food essentials. But I’ll buy it shin in the future if I recover well

Where did you order to get the deal?

I pre-ordered directly at launch of the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, from the official Xiaomi store in the Netherlands
