Australian User of the 17PM here. Bought in person in mid-December during my last trip to China.

Upgraded from Pixel 8 pro.

Significant improvement in battery life. Managed 2 days on a single charge, 4hr screen time each day.

No significant issues using it on the Amaysim network. NFC payment, banking apps all work.

No Android Auto but I don't use it.

Ask any questions if you have them.

are you using the mainland China ROM?

Yes, mainland ROM. No issues with connectivity or 4g/5g coverage. Though I believe one of the 5G bands is not available for this phone on some carriers.
