I wish to purchase a phone, Xiaomi mi5, that only covers LTE bands B1(2100mhz), B3 (1800mhz) and B7(2600mhz)

My provider, Truemove, uses B1, B3 and B8 (900mhz).

I don't really know how this works, is this going to be a problem if I'm in a zone where Truemove only uses B8, or are they using all 3 bands simultaneously and my phone will just pick B1 or B3?

My wife has an original Mi5 and it works fine with Thai LTE 4G.

Could you check what band her phone is connected to? Thanks!

I have no idea. I just know it works fine. She has used True and now is using AIS.

My Xiaomi Note-3 works well on both True and AIS 4G LTE.  I don't know which bands the phone is set for.

This device supports all thai LTE bands. Quite weird that a better phone from the same maker doesn't.

Maybe I should get the note 4...

I don't know this but I suspect a lot might have to do with which regional market the phone was manufactured for by the OEM.  

The routes of electronic products from OEM to end retailer can be arcane and complicated with lots changing hands multiple times along the way.  A trading company in China may acquire a large lot from the OEM and subdivide it, selling those lots to smaller trading companies who in turn, divide even further and so on it goes.  By the time the phone gets to the retailer, you bought from,  a lot of it's provenance is lost.  It may simply be that your phone was originally  destined for a different market.
