Yes it is for k30 but if you scroll down you'll notice that it says if you order the global version, the name in the system will be Poco X2.
Is this a mistake on their side? what is happening?

It's nearly not a mistake . Nearly means it's a common practice on Aliexpress to sell chinese versions of Xiaomi phones with Global (or fake Global - like in your link) ROM.
So it's pure K30 but with unlocked bootloader and installed multi-language ROM.
The more important - read the item description carefully:
"CN version China ROM: Only Support English and Chinese, Support NFC and OTA Update(may NFC function cannot be used in some different countries)
CN version Global ROM: Multi language, Support OTA Update, with Google play store, No NFC (Unlocked bootloader for installing Global rom, Android Pay, Netflix, some banking app might not supported.)".

Poco X2 is a global version of Redmi K30.

So security update to 01-02-2020 will be coming soon.
Hi
Was this an OTA update?
Would 9t be the same as the k20 pro?

The 1.1.0.3. version MI11 Android 10 with security patch date 01-10-2019 was an official OTA update from Miui10 to Miui11 Android 10.

Thanks for replying. My phone is sitting at 11.0.1, and I am not picking up a OTA update. What could be the reason?

You're probably on the MIUI global rom that's (for now) 'stuck' at 11.0.1. Whereas the op is probably on MIUI's EU/EEA rom that's 'already' on 11.0.3.

Thanks. I am indeed on the global Rom. What are the differences?
Sent from my Redmi K20 Pro using Tapatalk
I honestly have no idea. I used both and I only noticed 2 differences:
1. The global rom says LTE in the statusbar and the EEA/EU rom says 4G
2. Swiping up from the home screen with stock launcher opens up xiaomi browser on the EEA rom and Google search on the global rom.
I googled a bit but haven't found no official statement from Xiaomi. Some people say there's no ads on EEA but I honestly never had ads in MIUI wether it be global or EEA.
Other people say the EEA rom (finally) complies with the European GDPR which makes sense and also means that there's no access to the theme store. Tho the global rom already has no access to theme store if you set your region to the EU countries.
Both EEA and Global lack features like the ultra battery saving mode (for now), so I honestly don't think there's much of a difference, despite the version difference (11.0.3 and 11.0.1).
However there might be differences in update frequency but I haven't figured that one out yet. All I can tell is that the EEA rom received Miui 11 way faster/earlier.
Thanks so much for the super detailed response. Interestingly, so I believe, I'm on the global Rom and mine says 4g and 4g+
Not sure how related or unrelated it is but I am able to get Vowifi on my p20 Pro but nothing at all on my xiaomi [emoji24]

The Global EU Rom has to comply to the EU law for privacy protection and uses for example the Android Phone interface.
The eventual Ad's that can be shown is completely dependable of the users choice and you must allow or refuse it during setup and when already setup you can revoke you choice of showing them and switch them off.
The update for global finally arrived. 11.0.3

You can see what version you're running when you hit the ''My device'' section in settings and take a look at the exact MIUI version.
For example mine (global) says ''11.0.1.0(QFKMIXM)'' whereas the EEA/EU rom says ''11.0.3.0(QFKEUXM)'' so you can basically tell the ROM version apart by the ''MI'' or ''EU''
Anybody already received the November security update for the Global EU?
On Global, not global EU
Sent from my Redmi K20 Pro using Tapatalk
On Global the November sec.update came with the update to Miui 11 and Android 10, unfortunately not for the EUXM Global.
Now it is waiting for that or the December security update although the January update is almost finished by Google now.

No! Better service for me and for all.
Today started new update 11.0.4.0 with bugfixes and december security update
Received the message on my device yesterday and went to the update checker.
It showed with a red dot that there was an update but after I checked manually it couldn't detect it anymore.
Strange.
Will try later today.
It's the same for the global version so this update might got pulled back.

Message on xiaomi site - authentication

Hello, i just bought Xioami mi pad 4 for 150eur in europe, i have been told that its from England.. I tried to verify authetification on xioami site, but it says
"Thank you for choosing Xiaomi!
However, the device you purchased is not an official global version and user experience may be affected. Next time, please purchase the official global version of the device through officially authorized channels."
Can anyone explain what this means? I heavily use tablet for 2 days, and everything is great. Just curious about message..
Also can someonw tell me if ita instaled last version of system?
Thanks in advance.
Mi Pad 4/Plus hasn't Global version. Only China version with xiaomi.eu like ROM.
Many China sellers use fake global MIUI as base system for sold devices. They unlock bootloader and install own rom. You can find some old posts about it and hints to replace this fake rom with any other custom rom or original MIUI. Maybe you have this rom in your tablet.
Xiaomi never offered this mi pad 4 official outside of China.

Question What are the differences between global/eu/chine variants?

Hey there,
I wanted to buy a Realme GT, but I don't know the differences between all those variants. I'm unsure, if I would be buying a smartphone, which would for example have a lack of some network frequencies I had to use, currently living in Germany.
Could anyone provide me some help? Also, I wanted to root this phone and get some mods, are there any specific variant ones or are they working on all phones?
Would be really nice, if I could get some help, thanks in advance
Realme GT GLOBAL -> have all languages, 5G almost all bands except united states and china Comes with google play
Realme GT EU (or Indian version) it does have lots of languages but for example it don't have portuguese(brazil) language. it does have all bands like realme gt global. It includes some apps or stuff that is related to indian and euro market. Come with google play
Realme GT CN - Chinese variant it comes with google play services installed but no google play store. It comes with a bunch of chinese apps that are kinda useless
Both EU ,CN and Global version will have all 5G bands in germany. (Cn version have less two 4G bands so its recommended to use O2 KPN provider)
All variants can be rooted homeweaver its not recommended as realme didnt released kernel sources yet so there is no twrp (and that make rooting and updating system very HARD without bricking)
Also it is not the best device to root as you will lose in screen fingerprint after rooting.
If you want to look for a phone to root, see oneplus or xiaomi or wait realme community grow with custom roms that can use fingerprint while rooted
Here you can compare different band and combination support:
Global: https://cacombos.com/device/RMX2202_11
China: https://cacombos.com/device/RMX2202
I recommend buy Global version if you will use device outside from China.

I just recently got one online for a real decent price thinking that I could load custom ROMs and all but there's nothing out there. Is there any hope for this device or is it better to just get rid of it and get another device which is more likely to be supported in the long run?

I am thinking of buying the Chinese version of this cell phone but I am somewhat hesitant about the issue of google services and updates, you say that it comes with google services installed but without the play store, so google apps and their services will work without problems if I only install the playstore?

Question Global relase, TWRP and root

Hello, I'm planning to buy one of the newest Xiaomi tablets and everything for me depends on availability of global ROM, because of polish language in this version of firmware. Will 5g Pro version be available globally, is there any info about that? There are 3 versions (with different hardware names so every version have it own uncompatible firmware and can be or not sold globally) standard, Pro and Pro 5g. Of course i would like to buy 5G Pro version, but for now i found only review of standard version with global firmware. (Tablet is sold with Global Russia version in Belarus from 5 sept) And i have few questions for you, maybe you know answers for them, will 5G version will be available with global MIUI? Maybe only Pro without 5g version or only standard version will be/are sold globally? Can I download Global Russia version for Pad 5/Pad 5 Pro? (If its sold with it it should be available for download) If no, when it should be available, when first update appears? And last somebody have successfully rooted this device? Greetings
I don't know if mipad5 5g will sell in your region or not, but it can be root using magisk. Also twrp rec available( unofficial, made by a Chinese developer)

I don't have twrp imagine, I.saw an article in an Chinese forum which the author clammed that he had twrp for mipad5 and need to pay for it. But I saw some comments said twrp made by this developer is difficult to use, so I missed it.

The PRO version does not have twrp, and the twrp compiled by the developer of the Chinese forum does not work properly, but only displays the time at the top of the screen.The PRO version does not have twrp, and the twrp compiled by the developer of the Chinese forum does not work properly, but only displays the time at the top of the screen.

Question Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G Reflashed Global Version

I live in Brazil and bought a Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G due to it's good price on Aliexpress, on the Mi Official Store. I will receive a open box, because they will reflash the ROM from Poco X3 GT Global Version to it.
I'm afraid about my security in buying a phone that it is previously handled by them. What can I do about it? Is that a legit concern? What is the difference between a reflashed rom and a global version?

This phone only exists in Chinese version and it has flashed the global version of the poco so that you have for example a multi-language version because the original version is only in Chinese or English and without play store.
With the unlocked bootloader you can install custom roms.
There are two security, the bootloader and the Xiaomi account, you only have one left.
