Selling a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 with UT preinstalled

Hi all!
I have a spare Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, 3/32GB version (codename: lavender), which I bought as second hand and which is in very good conditions. I cleared the userdata partition and installed UT on it.

This is one of the best supported phones by Ubuntu Touch. The phone characteristics can be read here at Xiaomi's site.

I'm selling this for 80 EUR + shipping.

Xiaomi devices are rather popular here in Russia, so if I see that there is interest I might be able to buy more second-hand (or even new) devices and resell them with UT preinstalled. Write me if you are potentially interested.

Ciao,
Alberto

What is the situation with all alternative OS in Russia ? Can you freely and officially use here UT or any you want ?

I'm not aware of any restrictions, and I've been using UT on my phones for 5 years already.

@mardy We have a buyer for you in Moscow. A private message has been sent to you. Thank you for your attention.

@domubpkm about Russia - it's all OK... you can install anything you want... even you can sell your phone on an internet noticeboard, to private hands. But official business can only sell something that complies with the law - smartphone must have a number of components installed, all sorts of Russian search engines and office applications, etc...

@markatrafik Thank you for clarifying a bit... I am not going to ask you to give a detailed lecture on all the cases...

Hi again!
I was able to get another Redmi note 7 second hand, this time it's the version with more RAM and storage (4/64GB), but it comes with minor scratches and without box or any accessories, so I'll keep the same price: 80 EUR + shipping.

The phone is unlocked and Ubuntu Touch is preinstalled

You can sell your phone through an ad on the Internet to another person without any problems, even if you only have your charger and phone left.
In Russia, phones are usually already unlocked.
