Any advice on how to buy that in the US?

  Aliexpress with DHL shipping https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Global-Version-Xiaomi-POCOPHONE-F1-POCO-F1-6GB-64GB-Snapdragon-845-6-18-Full-Screen-AI/32915991130.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Global-Version-Xiaomi-POCOPH... BUT I'm not sure you will get LTE coverage

    Different operators use different LTE bands. F1 has FDD-LTE B1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20, TDD-LTE B38, 40, 41.

      Doesn't look good then https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_frequencies_in_the_US https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_frequencies_in_the_US

  Buy it from any Amazon in Europe: https://www.amazon.de/Xiaomi-Pocophone-64GB-Dual-SIM-Black/dp/B07GTD2XDF https://www.amazon.de/Xiaomi-Pocophone-64GB-Dual-SIM-Black/d... I can buy from amazon.com and pay extra for shipping from the US to Germany. It probably works the same the other way around. As others have stated LTE may not work in the US though - without flashing a different modem at least (if that's even possible with that phone).

    $450 (387 Eur) is about $150 more than Aliexpress price.

      Hmm. The price is 319.99 Euros for me. Amazon's dynamic pricing at it again. That might still be slightly more expensive than the AliExpress price, but at least you'll have better consumer protection.

  I bought one on eBay from a US-Based seller with a lot of feedback. It's working well in California but not getting LTE in most places. I hardly ever notice.
