Confused about China vs Global

Hi all,
I'm considering getting a Redmi Note 3 (Snapdragon version/Pro). I'm a little confused about the bands that it supports. When I check wellmyphonework.net it says that the Global model will work on LTE Band 4, but the China/Unicom one will not. Looking in the forums I see Global and China Roms, but nothing definitive about separate physical models.
Is the hardware all the same(ignoring RAM/Storage variations)? Do the supported bands depend solely on which ROM is installed? If there are distinct hardware versions is there any way to tell which one I would get from ebay or AliExpress?
Thanks in advance.

The lte band support is hardware dependant, software doesn't matter.
I've bought mine with China global and lte is working fine in Europe.

That's simply not true. The SD650 supports Band 4 which is what he's asking about. Europe doesn't use Band 4 and all the versions support European lte bands. On another thread here a user with AT&T was getting lte on the vendor rom and changed to the Global rom and now only gets H+. I too would like to know which version of the phone I have.

Redmi Note 3 SD650 China (Full Netcom) version LTE band 8 support

Hi!
For the chinese Redmi Note 3 SD650 version (called Full Netcom in China meaning it supports China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom) the LTE-FDD bands are listed as B1/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8.
Does anyone have 100% proof, preferably with a screenshot, that it does support band 8 (using the global stable MIUI if possible)? For me it seems to work but I live in the city so band 7 is used most of the time. Also some people don't believe that this phone support band 8 so it would be good to know for sure.

Redmi note 3 different versions

Hi,
I wanna order my redmi note 3 but i don't know what phone is the right one. there are so many models...
i want to flash a pretty clean AOSP or CM rom on it that is stable so im required to buy the right model.
When i look around i usually see pro's, with 3GB ram and a octa core but i have seen some with hexa core both claiming to be snapdragons...
I want to use this phone in europe.
which one is the Kenzo model with snapdragon and alot of custom roms etc?

You get the snapdragon. It is a hexacore SD 650.
What LTE bands do you need? There is a Kate which has more than the Kenzo.

I think B20, will probably not get 4G unless in bigger city's but i don't care for 4G that much anyway.. 3G is fine by me.
Doesn't kate have less rom choice?
Which is better kate or kenzo? and how do i know which one am buying??
Kate is newer than Kenzo, so yeah it has less support and even some people don't know it exists!
Kenzo is the Redmi note 3 Pro. Has LTE band 3 (1800mhz) only.
Kate is the Redmi note 3 Pro special edition or international edition. Has LTE Band 3 and Band 20 (800mhz).
I ordered the Kate one although I know it has less support, but I need all international LTE bands!

Kenzo gets LTE band 4?

I have the Kenzo variant of the phone. From what I've read, only the Kate version (Special Edition) is supposed to support band 4 FDD-LTE. However to my surprise, my Kenzo is getting T-MOBILE LTE on band 4. How is this possible? I clean installed the latest Global Developer ROM via MiFlash tool if that makes any difference.
Only the variant sold in India doesn't support band 4 because no carrier uses it in india. If you have bought it from China as redmi note 3 pro it'll support band 4, the special edition supports band 20 as well.
Seriously, the amount of different versions of this phone is infuriating. Lol

Problem with LTE :(((

Guys olease help me, i bought this phone 3 weeks ago and i realised that my girlfriend in same places have better LTE than me, often i dont even have LTE and she does. She have Samsung Galaxy S50 i have Redmi Note 9 Pro 128GB bought in Poland and i live also in Poland. I figured out that i probably dont have 800 MHZ LTE and she does, can it be problem? How i can fix it and connect through my phone to 800mHZ... I found that global version of my phone have this freqneucy and mine probably have not, is it true? Really they can sold me in famous polish shop phone with no having basic 800 MHz lte? Cant believe...
I post here screenshot with my phone info, thanks for any help.
Have you bought your phone in India? If not, you HAVE the global version.
Doea your phone have 64MP cam and NFC? Then you have the Joyeuse, which IS the global Note 9 Pro.
If your phone has 48MP back cam and no NFC, it is the INDIAN "Note 9 Pro" which is the same as the globla Note 9s.
By the way, both, 9s and 9 Pro, has LTE Band 20 (800MHZ).
Does your provider feature LTE?
Does your contract have LTE inclusive?
If so, is your phone set up to use LTE Band in the settings?
