Anyone selling a redmi note 8 plus or where the special deals on cellphones of similar capacity can be looked at?

Xiaomi China's website is having a sale on their Redmi K30 Pro (aka Poco F2 Pro). The base model costs about R6500, minus duties etc. which is a steal considering it starts at R10-13000 here in SA:

Redmi K30 Pro立即购买-小米商城

小米手机官网正品Redmi K30 Pro推荐，小米手机Redmi K30 Pro最新价格，有多种颜色可选，另有Redmi K30 Pro详细介绍及图片，还有用户评价，售前咨询等。

They don't ship directly but I'm considering using a proxy service based in China to ship it to SA. Does anyone have experience with importing from China?

Hi all. I recently purchased my first Xiaomi phone and I'm really impressed. Only issue so far is getting my smart watch notifications on my wrist. Doesn't seem to work after doing all the obvious steps. Anyone got a fix?
