The lacklustre cameras and LTE band support are my main issues with those. You'll also want to reflash the phone when you get it - this may require asking Xiaomi for "permission" to unlock the phone (what happens when that server goes away?)

I agree the camera is not great. No Android so far was able to compare against my former S7 Edge (I guess S8/Plus and Note 8 are better though). And that's not okay. I have to admit though, the Mi 6 is a filler device for me until the iPhone X comes out.

The LTE band support problem is weird and I guess it comes from Xiaomi not pulling the right strings in the USA. We can only speculate though.
