Yes, I'm hoping I can help others as well. At this point, I think I can go up on a stage and give an hour long talk about phone specs and bands and features, without looking at notes haha.
As for the Oneplus One, it's a nice phone, but to get one, I'd have to "buy" one of those invites, usually about $20 , pay for the phone, pay for shipping, pay for duty, pay for US to CAD exchange. Guess what, that $299 phone now costs more than a brand new Nexus 5. So yeah, kinda disappointed in that.
As for the Redmi Note 4G, it's apparently quite new, and didn't even exist when i started looking. There's apparently a model that works only with China's 4G bands the TD-LTE 1900 / 2300 / 2600.
I've been assured that it works on 4 of the 5 WCDMA 3G bands, so it Should work on Bell/Telus/Rogers in Canada and AT&T in the US. As for 4G, the one from Merimobiles supposedly uses 4G FDD- LTE 1800/2100MHz, so it won't work in North America. My friend's carrier uses 1700/2100 for 4G (it's Koodo/Telus), which is the same as the ones used by Rogers/Bell in Canada, and AT&T, T-Mobile in the US.
From what I can see, it should work on 4G in Malaysia and Singapore, which uses 1800. I only mention those two countries as I looked it up for someone else as well, but it does work in others (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks).
If I were getting one myself, I would probably gravitate more towards the Zenfone 6 (love the idea of an Intel Atom CPU, and ZenUI looks neat). So many choices.. so little money :-)
Edit : forgot to answer your one question. Yes, that is the model I ordered from merimobiles
