Projected for late April but depending on where you live they might sell out pretty fast send if you miss the first batch you might have to wait another month to try and get one from the second batch etc

That's how it is in the philippines, the popular xiaomi phones get sold out near instantly and the staff I asked are clueless about the next shipment
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Nammster:
I got a 12/512 Marble white CN ROM for sale.

I live in Switzerland, so easy and fast to ship in Europe

let me know
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] nono52:
No, I bought them from the Xiaomi Mi Store
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Eroticus:
What you did not liked about the phone ?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Nammster:
Well too much to say hahah

chinese ROM (but i can flash it and use the Global ROM)

but the first issue is : i tried everything to switch my stuff from iPhone to the 11 Ultra

Samsung smartswitch❌

Lg smart switch ❌

Mi mover ❌

Xperia mover❌

i wanted to switch everything not just my photos

when i was working in bestbuyMobile and a customer switched from ios to a Samsung everything was smooth but not on Xiaomi

i dont have PC/MAC and even if i did all the app are expensive like DrFone around 99$ to have the full featur

and since i lived in France/Canada/USA and now Switzerland iMessage and Facetime is 90% of my contact and maybe 30% can use Whatsapp

So a rather sell it
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
Whilst I know the exact date, a NDA prevents me from providing this, but its soon enough not to fret over. 2-3 weeks approx.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Bilhouse:
Thanks, I think I will wait in that case then.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] avetny:
Damn I am 1 cm away to buy Chinese version. (marble white 512Gb)

Can’t wait anymore 🤧😡
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] cambofuk:
So still no update on other global versions? AliExpress pretty pricey
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] avetny:
That Aliexpress seller not responding....don’t even say about him lol
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
I believe they will start selling global version on 23rd of april as in india. And probably a week after officially world wide

I am waiting 23rd april impatiently. I'll just go global, and seller on aliexpress global for 1200usd does not deliver to australia -.-
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] avetny:
Ok lets wait until 23rd 🤧😒
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] panda24z:
A Reddit user posted that the UK Global release date is scheduled for May 5th. This information was disclosed by a sales rep at the Harrods Xiaomi Pop up store. It's not by any means a guarantee, but something to consider as well.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] DREW76:
Can pre Order in Australia here https://www.mi-store.com.au/xiaomi-mi-11-ultra

ETA 3rd May
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] boober78:
Why wouldn't it? Chinese MIUI does not have any issues with Google pay once you change default payment method.

BTW, my phone was delivered last week. Itbwas shipped in the 8th of April. It took around 9 working days in total to arrive from China to Luxembourg with DHL Express. My customs fees were 41 euros. Phone is great overall, i highly recommend Liaow.com, very responsive and helpful.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
I would imagine ordering will start for the global around this time in many places. Gives Xiaomi time to update the firmware properly As well.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Death'87:
Yep, I ordered the charger too.. The tracking is still stucked on Amsterdam
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
Where do you live mate?! I wanna kiss you between your eyes 😜
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] lortwarCECH:
My order from tradigshenzen is stuck here, it doesnt move for 4 days, i bought charger with my order, so it may cause delay, it seems weight at tradingshenzhen site and courier site is different(it seems it stuck at amsterdam) anyone same problem?

View attachment 5283851
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] pafc66:
1799 AUD haha what a joke

Just get the china version for 1300-1400 and flash global or EU rom.

The CH version works on all Australian bands including 5g.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
Have you flashed either yet?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
Not going to risk going cn version and flash eu rom and headache with updates and google pay. More over, 12gb/256 the cheapest I found as cn was 16xx.

Also, you must be on vodafone to have all bands working, I have Optus as personal and telstra for work, so I checked bands and their main in most of australia is 28 for 4g and 40 for 5g.

However, at some point, I totally agree with you but I'd buy mind peace and have australian warranty as well.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] lortwarCECH:
I asked someone at tradingshenzhen about this, my order is stuck in Amsterdam too, they said it is delayed because of covid pandemic
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] pafc66:
Are you sure?

Everywhere I've read band 28 is supported for Telstra which is 4gx and band 78 which is 5g.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Zaffy:
Mine arrived today to Spain. Lets see how much it takes to arrive to my house. Usually this stuff tends to be pretty fast but I aint going to hold my breath here. First time having something shipped through YunExpress.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
I imagine a lot of disappointed people turning up and realising it wasn’t for then available to buy. That date seems pretty close to the actual.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] semsem1969:
This where I got mine from, took 4 days

Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] chistery:
Why is Xiaomi UK so bad at launching new devices? They have global launch events, they follow up with UK launches, and they still forget the price or on sale date. They seem more interested in giving out phones to bloggers than actually selling devices.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
Every tech company does this. And with the Ultra they aren’t bad at anything. It’s just got released in China & the global version starts to get released in about a week’s time.

What they don’t do is release every version of their phone in certain places. This is often driven by network carriers.

Good news is lots of carriers want to range this phone.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Nammster:
You want mine ?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] DREW76:
Yep agree with Australian warranty. Don't need the hassle in having to send back O/S to be fixed etc
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] hassanaliyeh:
Check this link

Will Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra work in Australia?

In this page we are going to show you the compatibility of Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra with the mobile networks of Australia and with the telephony operators that provide service in Australia.

www.kimovil.com

Note that global version does have band 40 under 5G. (Link outdated)

Chinese version will cover everything a miss a band (40 5G) only which is available in global version.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
The country I live in only uses n78

Still might flash to global or eu
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] pafc66:
None of those bands are required for Telstra 5g.

Giztop now selling the Mi 11 Ultra with Xiaomi 67W charger included. Probably a limited time thing. https://www.giztop.com/xiaomi-mi-11-ultra.html

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] lortwarCECH:
10/11 days to Europe from tradingshenzhen
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] dikemon:
Hello,

in 1-2 weeks time there will be a global rom at a higher price. I'd wait for that.

If you have any questions left, feel free to answer to this message.

Kind regards

[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Pacman1969:
How is your tracking going? I only got the ship notification today but it still has not even been picked up and it is saying delivery late May early June which is a joke
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] adil7884:
my shipment is on its way to my country maybe it could be delivered this weekend or next week at the latest.

AliExpress it just gives you an estimate of a delivery date,but it often takes 2-3 weeks maximum for delivery in Europe AliExpress standard shipping.

it is strange that your shipment has been delayed a bit, but it is important that the package is collected by the courier after the next steps are faster
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] lhubbard0:
How much extra will it cost?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] dikemon:
That was the answer the store gave me from China. They did not reveal the exact price to me! It will be about 1200 euros
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Zaffy:
Got my mi 11 Ultra yesterday. Beautiful beast and amazing pictures.

Now waiting for the 168 hours to pass so that I can flash MIUI 12.5 EU
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] aliveinthesky:
So due to some complications with sellers, I'm now due to receive 2 Mi 11 Ultras in the Black 12+256 variety.

Obviously I don't need 2, So i am willing to sell one of them for the same amount i paid for it +postage.

If you are interested and are based in the UK, feel free to shoot me a PM on here : )
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Eroticus:
This product is no longer available.

This product is no longer available.

www.alibaba.com

I posted that link before, so today i got my devices , i ordered it in 13.4 and the Seller shipped it in 17.4,

Today i received the device , 512/12 like I bought, I did not asked for a charger but the seller still got me one for free.

I asked to lower the price of the package so they did 198$ ( I paid 35$ Taxes and 30$ for DHL EXTRA)

Feel free to ask more questions.

View attachment 5286005
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] lhubbard0:
Those are great prices. Should I trust that site over something like tradingshenzhen, wonda, or giztop for here in the States?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Zaffy:
Alibaba is just like aliexpress, but you deal directly with the shops.

They are trustworthy, most of the times. I mean, there are obviously scams just like on amazon but this listing seems quite good, and given that someone already got their phone...

Just take into account they usually only ship with premium carriers (so you will need to under declare it and pray that they dont actually check whats inside) and that the platform itself takes around 3% of the purchase for the buyers protection.

Aside from that, yes, the platform works.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Eroticus:
It exactly the same like AliExppres (Even same owners)

Just before buying something, check the Store rating and Buy with PayPal as Payment or " Trade Assuranceprotects your Alibaba.com orders "
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] veimus:
I got my phone from Giztop after 14 days in transit to Ireland, 0 customs charge :)
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] thyrel:
Hi! Do you think it will be released in the EU (I'm from Italy) by the 5th of May? I can't wait to buy it but I don't want the Chinese version. Global versions on sale are quite expensive and I'm afraid it would take quite a lot of time to ship it here.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] sc954rr:
Hi how was buying through Alibaba experience? I am in communication with a seller on there but not sure how buying direct is. Was there import fees or taxes? I asked the seller and he says no. For reference I am in USA
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
I got the China 12/512 for about $1200 , seller threw in a free 67w charger and a few small gifts, I flashed onto EU 12.5.2 today

It's very worth it imo

After you get it on global or EU and debloat there is not a phone on the market that can compete with this thing!
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
Local mi store beside me is currently sold out of even the regular mi 11 with a waiting list!!!

They don't know if or when they will get the ultra in stock but I didn't want to take my chances of not getting one and have to wait months longer

It's trivial to flash the EU or global rom on the China one and if you can't the edl guys will do it for a cheap price
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] thyrel:
Thanks! What about 5G bands? Will it have the same as the EU version once I flash the EU or global ROM?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] speedtripler:
I can only confirm that band n78 is the only 5g band the providers in the Philippines use and I can connect to it without issues on both China and EU

You can see which bands are available on kimovil.com or Google search which ones your carrier needs

4g ,4g+ ,LTE etc are working fine too....
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Parkourhaderatt:
Is this the global version?

How many days it took to ship? and whats the price u paid
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Parkourhaderatt:
From where did u order it?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] aliveinthesky:
I ordered both of my phones from Alibaba, due to arrive either tomorrow or Monday next week
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Parkourhaderatt:
Are they global versions? Im about to order from Alibaba too but im not sure its global version!
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Gh5st:
There is no global version available at alibaba.

If you want you can send me the offer and I send you a screenshot of the chat with the seller.. :)

I already wrote them all and asked if it's the global version..

It's always the china version OR china version flashed with Global ROM.. :(

At least for now..
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Pacman1969:
It is on its way now. Favour to ask. When you get yours can you confirm by the box that it is the global version and not the chinese phone with flashed global rom. I did ask Mi Official Store and they said it was definitely Global but just want to make sure
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] adil7884:
before buying I inquired and they assured me it is the European version, however I will certainly let you know as soon as I get the phone👍
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Pacman1969:
Yea they assured me of the same you just never know. Thank you for your help
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] xNAPx:
Is there any news about the release date in UK? It is still stated as late April (I heard of an ipotetical 23rd of April, i.e. tomorrow), but I read on here the 5th of May too. There will be enough phones to buy at launch or will it be out of stock soon?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Pacman1969:
I am curious in your shipping tracking how long did it take to go from shipment left country of origin warehouse to shipment accepted by airline. Mine has left country of origin warehouse over 36 hours ago. In other orders I have done it took like 7 to 8 hrs which is why I am asking
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] adil7884:
View attachment 5287833

I ordered on 14.04 and 16.04 was shipped, but sometimes there may be technical times for shipping, the package arrives today in my country but I guess it will be delivered to my address next Monday
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] shethsa:
The launch is live in India. Rs69,999 for the 12GB variant (that's the only one launched). But....only 55w charger in the box for now. Apparently awaiting some certification approvals for the 67w charger. Could this have something to do with the talk of overheating of the motherboard, assuming thats a genuine complaint?

No official availability related info yet. ALthough its advertised on amazon.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] thyrel:
I could buy it from there once it is available. It's the global version, right?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] shethsa:
I should think so. Need to check which 5G bands are included though.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] thyrel:
Is the 5G bands support linked to the particular ROM installed on the phone or it depends on something else?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
U.K. will be first week of May.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] kyero985:
Early May was what I was told by a rep when I went to Xiaomi's Harrods popup stand/booth before I got my phone but they wouldn't specify the exact date. I suspect it will be a similar thing for EU.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] avetny:
I got tired of waiting. Ordered from ebay 512 Marble lmao!

Expensive
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] thyrel:
Can anyone answer this? I want to buy a global version on eBay but I am kind of worried about 5G bands.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Gh5st:
Have you found a global version on eBay? I only see an offer from the USA and it's only pre-order. 🥴
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] thyrel:
Yes, that one... It says they ship it after 7 days.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] avetny:
That one changing date all the time !! Before it was 23 Aprile now 15 may soon he will change it to May 31 lmao, by that time...ebay will be full of Global phones with chipper price
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] avetny:
I was considering to buy global...but now after we figure out how to switch firmwares i can see the difference is between Global and Chinese is 1 extra band “B66”. And thats it....also u have color Marble (with Chinese variant) that sick in real life a specially on ceramic back.

Plus on Chinese you getting faster updates (but it doesn’t matter because software is not a problem anymore....so ?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] sc954rr:
That's the way I am looking at it as well band B66 which is extra capacity band for AT&T plus n5 band which in US isn't much good unless your phone is on the carrier "approved list" my understanding is it will be blocked from using 5g.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] avetny:
41 (2.5 GHz)is most important 5G band for me.

n5 600mhz is mahhhh... go sit down under antenna 🤣

B66 is good one, thats true
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] StefanoDurden:
One of the biggest Italian tech bloggers received it (global of course) yesterday/today and he said the review will be online on May 4th, so everything seems to suggest a general availability starting the 5th. I imagine that it will be the same in all of Europe
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] thyrel:
That's good news! I might just as well wait for the EU release at this point. I don't think it will be sold out immediately. I will keep an eye on global versions in the meantime as I expect there will be more available after today's launch in India.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] ikkifcporto:
Hello I have a quick question I don't know if I'm in the right place !? Anyone know the reference of the charger 67w gan EU version?And where can we buy it? THANK YOU
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] lhubbard0:
Anyone found a place to order the global version to ship to the States now that it is out in India?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Gh5st:
It's "out" in india but the sale of mi 11 ultra has not yet begun. And Xiaomi India has not announced a date for the start of the sale.. 🥴

However, the date for the start of the sale should follow soon.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] panda24z:
You can buy a global unit on AliExpress, but not for a good price. Units range around $1,999. I also found one go for $8k 🙄 The shipping was estimated to take around 42-62 days too. There's also a pre-order on eBay showing for $1,699. However, the date on the description keeps changing. It stated deliveries rollout on April 30, now it's saying May 15th.

I've been debating using a package forwarding service like tiptrans and just buying a global unit from AliExpress (the units not available for US addresses) and then shipping it back to the states. 😵 I hate the wait though, I figured by the time I do all of that the units will be more widely available. So here I am, just waiting.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
There’s more reasons to avoid the China version if you are in the U.K. it’s not just the missing band(S). Some apps just won’t work or will have oddities. More importantly you’ll likely lose carrier aggregation and stuff like that.

Considering how close the release date is, I’ll just wait to order it from the U.K.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Pluey:
is it confirmed that global sets do not have 512gb? or is it going to be released later only?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
Nothing is confirmed for the 512gb. Sales are driven by network/carrier orders and the 256gb is the preferred option. Xiaomi could perhaps offer the larger storage at some point. Maybe from day one. Maybe not.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Pluey:
that sucks.. but i think they will have the 512gb edition with the marble if they are going to release that for global too.. so it will be like a special colour edition with a higher capacity..
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] sc954rr:
Have you ever used a forwarding address before? This post got me thinking about doing this since the prices for UK are relatively normal for the global edition?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] panda24z:
I have not used a forwarding address before, or any similar services. I did sign up on TipTrans (registration is free) and they gave me a Chinese, UK, German, and Czech forwarding address to use. However, I am hesitant to get a third-party involved. If something goes wrong I'll have to contact the seller of the device and potentially the forwarding service. The odds of something happening is kind of slim, but still worries me. I did some minor research and TipTrans looks like a trustworthy site. There's some Reddit posts about it, trust pilot gave them a 4 star rating as well. Idk, I was going to use that as a last resort if possible, with a PayPal account. If there's a package forwarding company that delivers from the UK to wherever it is you live, and if they have several positive reviews, I would say go for it. Just make sure you check the prices and fees charged by the package forwarding service. Beware of customs and taxes!! God forbid you order it from a Chinese seller, get it sent to a UK package forwarding service, and then shipped to the US. I do not want to imagine the fees for that. Oh, and also make sure the seller you're buying it from is trustworthy or has good reviews as well. My thought process is, if you get both a good seller and a good forwarding company, if problems do arise, you can get it resolved rather easily. Sorry I can't provide more insight on this.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] nono52:
Hi, news of my command (global version AliExpress seller)

I hope a delivery for next week

View attachment 5289421
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] shethsa:
Yes. I wonder why though. Could it be the lockdown in many of the metros which is preventing delivery, or is it that they're waiting for approval for their 67w charger? Hearing that there are only a limited 3,000 pieces to begin with. Not sure though.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] acm1108:
Is this the Global version?
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] panda24z:
Nope, I believe it was a Chinese version with a Global ROM flashed. There is an Alibaba post on this forum where you can get more details about different Alibaba sellers claiming they sell "Global units. " Long story short, there are no real Global units available on Alibaba as of yet.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] KillyTheTroll:
Hi !

I just read this on tomsguide.com :

"Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra review: Price and release date

We know that the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra will be coming to the U.K, though it will skip the U.S., given Xiaomi’s ongoing dispute with the U.S. government over alleged risks to national security."

Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra review

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra offers two displays and amazing cameras, but it may not be enough

www.tomsguide.com

Is that true ?

thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Eroticus:
Nope, Chinese One, Global will start from 1200$.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Pluey:
its so lame, they are not releasing 512GB for global sets.. and only fixed 256GB with no expandable slots
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] gavinfabl:
256gb is plenty. Most stuff is in the cloud. Personally 128gb is not enough for me.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] Princevelyn:
No I read the toms guide review.. there were so many falsehoods and other issues with the review. But no Xiaomi is not officially in the US market, which is why the phone is not being sold officially here. Xiaomi has never sold phones in the US. So this is nothing new. The phone can work in the US easy, which is why I ordered one, but there is no ongoing dispute between the US and Xiaomi.

Hi All,

I've ordered the Global version but yet to come, should be shipped next week 3rd of May or after. my question is, I know the Chinese version does not come with charger, does that apply to global version as well? is so, i'll have to order a charger then.
[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] cambofuk:
My understanding is that the global comes with the charger. Where did you order from?
