hey XDA fellows, i recently got a Mi 8 Lite, and when attempting to unlock, turns out i have to wait 15 days (360 hours), which is fine i guess (not really happy about it but Xiaomi is Xiaomi). now, if it wasn't for Treble, i wouldn't have gotten this phone since it clearly won't see much love from developers, but since Treble is available, i figured why not, but then i remembered that Treble GSIs aren't always 100% functional on all devices. sooo, my question being, is it worth waiting 15 days to unlock and test out Treble? did anyone attempt installing a GSI, and was it functioning fine?
im mainly curious because the site i got it from, ironically, has a 15 day return policy, exactly as much as the unlock wait time, and that won't be enough time to test out 10 different GSIs then actually test out whatever works. so, should i return it now and save myself the trouble or is it worth keeping it around? thanks ahead.
