    This is a lost for people wanting to use the Xiaomi version of Android. They are locked.

    For people who buy these phones specially to unlock the bootloader and install a custom ROM, it doesn’t change much.

      How do you figure? The actual article states that only Chinese users with a certain post rating on their forums will be eligible to apply for an unlock of their phones.

      Users outside of China will not be able to unlock at all.

      This changed everything!
