Xiaomi Mi Max 2 64GB or Mi Max 2 128GB?

Hi OzBs 😊
I need some help. I've been waiting for the Mi Max 2 price to come down in price, and found that there is a Mi Max 2 128gb version at Banggood for $344.
I looked up the differences between the 64gb & 128gb, however I'm a bit confused as to what the differences really mean. This is a flash sale, so I need to know fairly quickly if I want to buy either phone in this deal.

Below is the link I found with the differences. Could someone who knows please tell me if the 128gb (that has less bands and no MIMO connectivity) is less useful as a phone than the 64gb? (I do travel overseas a fair bit so it's not just for Au use).
I'd like the extra space, but if it means that the 128gb is less useful, then I'll get the 64gb.
I know I can use one of the simcard slots for extra space if I need it (tho I do like having 2 simcards).
Thanks so much for your help.

  • I'm not sure how accurate that page is. They both use the same chipset and firmware, so should have same WiFi and mobile phone capabilities. Unless it's really a 64gb 2 Vs 128gb 2S ? The 2 and 2S are slightly different.

    • 2S ? you meant Mi Mix ?

    • Ok, thank you. I also thought it a bit weird that they'd be different..

  • yeah that website is not so good. just check https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_max_2-8582.php
    for me i believe the diff is just RAM ie 64 and 128 the rest are 100% same.

    • Thanks dragon

  • better get mi max 3 will be announced next month

  • I don't believe the max 2 came with different ram options.
    As such, with it's expanded storage via micro SD, probably best just get the 64gb.

    Honestly though, if you can't be bothered waiting for the max 3 next month, I would tell you to look how cheap you can get the max 1.
    I think I preferred my Max 1 over max 2, though the max 2 is definitely a better built device.
    Drop the max 1 and your might be in trouble.

    Also, that price seems high for the max phones
