Differences between Regional Variants - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

I apologize that my question regards the OnePlus 7t pro (which is off-topic for this forum), but I am posting my question here to look for information from existing OnePlus 7 pro users. I can pick up the new OnePlus 7t pro on an upcoming trip to England and bring it back to Canada for the same price as ordering the OnePlus 7 pro (North American variant) from OnePlus Canada. The OnePlus UK website, under 'specs', lists the frequencies for the OnePlus 7t pro as being same for China, India, and the EU. Those bands are fine for me in Canada because we can't take advantage of the four additional bands of the North American variant of the OnePlus 7 pro (such as LTE 71) that the Americans use. I know there will be no North American variant of the OnePlus 7t pro, but I'm thinking the variant from the UK will be fine for Canada. What I would like to know, from the experience of OnePlus 7 pro users, is whether they found any other differences (besides frequencies) between the various Regional Variants. Any other differences in functionality, ie GPS, software, etc.
Thank you for any Regional Variant experience you can share that will help me in arriving at a purchase decision.

7 Pro 5G

I am thinking of buying it unlocked in the UK. Is it going to be the 5G version or 4G? Because as far as I read it is exclusive to EE and will be available later.

Mate 30 Pro 5G

I have this new phone (China version) and will be travelling to US with me. Is it working on all US operators or particular one only in 4G & 5G modes? Thanks!
Did you find out?
As want I know it doesn't work at Verizon and Sprint others all good
Not sure about US,
My Mate 30 Pro 5G is working on all UAE operators and very high speed on 5G.
I read in chines forums that Mate 30 Pro 5G should work globally with no issues.
Please update us about your experience.

5G or not 5G in the UK?

There's a thread going on over in the OP Community where they reckon that O2, even though that has 5G, won't support 5G on the OP8.
This is weird to me because the OP8 is advertised as being '5G ready'. One reason I bought this is that I live in the UK which is rolling out 5G. I have a vodafone contract (SIM only) which includes 5G and I now have a 5G compatible SIM. So, I would expect that, when this lockdown is over, I can go into Manchester (near me and which has 5G) and my phone would start to use it.
But am I wrong in this assumption? If so, what is reality? What do I need to look for and who do I ask? If this is not going to work, I need to send it back before my 30 days are up.
Cheers

So u buy 5G to go to a 5G area to use 5G?
Vodafone use 5G NR n78 (3500MHz), like o2, EE and Three.
OnePlus 8 Pro (EU version) support only N78 for now and will get N1, N3, N7 and N28 with next updates.
The chinese version of the OnePlus 8 Pro support NR N41, N78 and N79, will also get N1 and N3 with next updates.
The US version (from oneplus dot com) N2, N5, N41, N66 and N71.

Ah, so if I've had the update which supports Three (which I have), then it will also support Vodafone. True?

Is there any custom rom support for the Oneplus 7 Pro 5G?

I was wondering if there was custom rom support for this device? Its the Sprint Model but I converted it to the international build.
I'm pretty sure there isn't I bought it recently and considering selling it. I've tried flashing it with Pixel experience and YAAP but it just won't give it won't work because the 5g models have x50 chips (separately installed from SoC) and the non 5g models don't so many Devs don't support it as it is also labelled under a separate model number GM1920 for OP 7 pro 5g ee (UK) also which is how it is detected. And apparently it's quite difficult to implement and therefore hasn't yet been implemented.
