Confused about ROMs (again)

Hi,
OK, so currently, I am running the MIUI 8.2 by xiaomi.eu 6.12.29.
However, this is UNOFFICIAL with no OTA etc. At the time, it was better than using the unofficial ROM that came with the phone (I'm not sure what that's called) and better than the official Chinese one.
But, I can now see that there is an OFFICIAL MIUI 8.2 GLOBAL for the Mix.
I want a phone that is unrooted, everything is vanilla (so that my banking apps work), has Google Apps and with OTA updates (I guess it's best for security). Also, the Euro ROM doesn't have working NFC payments (I can't get mine to work anyway).
Is my best bet now to move to the OFFICIAL GLOBAL ROM?
Thanks.

That's the really good question regarding the MIUI versions.
Maybe someone can explain (in noob version) the differences between the ROM versions. I came from Samsung two months ago and I am really confused, becasue the number of versions and their numbering.
I understand there are few types of ROM available with MIUI 8:
- MIUI Global Stable 8.x.x
- MIUI Global Beta 7.x.x (why the beta version has lower version number than stable one???)
- MIUI China Stable 8.x.x (what is the difference of Global vs. China?)
- MIUI Developers ROM 7.x.x (why it is 7.x.x not 8.x.x if it is MIUI 8???)
- MIUI Developers ROM 6.x.x (why it is 6.x.x not 8.x.x if it is MIUI 8???)
- other versions (please add if so)
Are they all version supported by MIUI team (official one) or maybe there are some developed by other teams? Which ones?
Thanks in advance for the explanation of this mess...
Regards!

Hello. I´ll try to explain.
There is no Global for now. So no need to explain.
The difference between 7.x.x and 6.x.x means that 7 ( Year 2017) and 6 (Year 2016) and it´s MIUI 8 . China Stable and China Developer are Official MIUI.

Question about MIUI rom for Mi Mix

Hello,
currently I have MIUI9 Global Stable 9.2.1.0 (NAHMIEK) installed on my phone.
When browsing about roms for my mi mix, I found something about MIUI 9.5 on Xiaomi.eu
The ROM is called V9.5.1.0.NAHCNFA_v9-7.0.zip
I noticed it's a china rom, while mine is a global one.
Does anyone know something about this rom? Is it MIUI9 and a higher version than the one I have installed right now?
I'm wondering about this rom, because there's a list of features which are included in this ROM, which says that they have optimized some things, added stuff, fixed problems, better RAM management etc.
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/8-3-8.43553/
What also makes me wonder is, that when I go to miui.com/download, I can choose between stable rom Global and China.
Global says V9.2.1.0.NAHMIEK (MIUI9) - so the one I'm using - and V9.5.1.0.NAHCNFA (MIUI8) which seems to be the rom I was looking for on xiaomi.eu
Could someone explain this to me?

If you are using English you can use either, not sure on the difference, you will have to use miflash if you haven't got TWRP installed. Be careful not to relock bootloader if it's unlocked. No playstore with Chinese ROM but it's easy enough to install, might be better using epic.

MIUI OTA force updates

Hello, new with this phone.
I've purchased a global model, and after checking for updates i got the miui 9.5.13.0. The last version on the miui download website is the 9.6.1.0 and also versions 9.6.3.0 and 9.6.4.0 came out.
Now the question is, how can i force an update to miui 9.6 any version? If i download from the website then i should install the 9.6.1.0 (clicking on the three dots) right? And the latest versions?
