Question About Xiaomi Mi Max 2 (global Version) And 4g/lte Bands

[Rosalind]

Hello everyone,

I recently got a Xiaomi Mi Max 2 (Global version), beautiful phone, I am super happy with it. Before I got it, I did some research and saw that Band 7 was supported in my country - the Netherlands. However, as it turns out, most carriers here use Band 20 and I was unaware of that, I thought Band 7 would be fine since all the search I did, showed it worked for 4G. Is there anything I can do to change this? Will there be some sort of update to include Band 20? Or am I totally f*cked and stuck like this? Thanks a lot.

Anyone please?

There is no possibility to get Band 20 included, because it is hardware not software related. No trick, no fix, no update.

Which provider do you use?
Every provider uses 3 bands , band 20 / band 7/ band 3
I use vodafone and 4g is supported .
So you don't need band 20 on your phone , 7 or 3 is also ok
