Is there a way to know which variant of the mi a2 you have , i mean i want to know if i have the India variant or other one thank for your attention
check in about phone model number
M1804D2SG is the global
M1804D2SI is the india version
is there any difference between these two apart from ROM? Will chinese k20 pro NFC work when I flash a custom rom?
asking because will buy one soon, k20 is cheaper but I've seen on gsmarena that k20pro nfc works only in china and that's basically the only thing that would force me to choose it over 9tpro

networks in every country that I've been so far (europe/scandinavia) work well on redmi note 3 which has less band support, should be fine, no?
there's that `NFC (china only)` thing in K20 column, will I be able to use it in europe after flashing a custom rom?

You can use it with the Chinese ROM. Not sure where this has come from that it only works in China. The issue is more about tap to pay apps don't work on the Chinese ROM. I know GPay doesn't play with Chinese MIUI, but not sure what else doesn't.
Once you've installed a custom ROM, then it's irrelevant (obviously excluding Indian models) which version of the phone you have. Any fixes required to get financial and tap to pay apps will work on all models with NFC hardware.

K20 Pro is released in China and India. Indian model, despite sharing the name, doesn't have NFC.
K20 PRO / Mi9T PRO ROM
I have mine ( K20 PRO ) with Mi9T PRO Global ROM. Everything works fine in, NFC works too.
Is the global Mi 9T Pro with dual band GPS?

Yes.. both official stable global and eea.
Be aware of the differences between the Chinese K20Pro and the Indian.
Chinese: no band 20, no widevine L1 after flashing non stock rom
Indian: no NFC, no band 20, no widevine L1 after flashing non stock rom.
Also there are hardware differences between the K20Pro and the 9T Pro.
Read very well all topics around flashing forward and back from stock to different Rom's and disregarding some don'ts put many here with a bricked or semi-bricked phone!!!

The only known hardware difference between all models is that the Indian model does not have the NFC coil. Otherwise they are identical.

No hardware/software wise band 20 is not there and it is a Qualcomm firmware thingy that blocked band 20 for all K20(Pro).
You can flash any Rom that you want but on as well the Indian as the Chinese K20(Pro) band 20 is not available.

Yes, but that is firmware, like your say. Physical hardware is the same, it's the firmware (software) controlling it that is different.
What distinguishes the Global version from Chinese? is it only the system's language that intrigues people to Global version? if so, then I am good if the Chinese version fully supports English, does it? (beside the Chinese apps) I also found that Chinese version frequencies work fine in my hometown, but I have seen someone's post on Mi Community claims that Chinese Mi 11 with global ROM doesn't work on LTE-A while global Mi 11 works perfectly (https://c.mi.com/thread-3619711-1-0.html?sources=1) is it a problem related to flashing or because it's originally Chinese phone?
Kimovil.com says the same bands are in both for 2g 3g 4g and 5g
The seller listed my Zenfone 8 as the Global variant but the FM radio app is disabled (in /system/app but not visible in the launcher).
How can I tell whether my device is the Global or EU variant?
Perhaps I have a global device but the FM radio is disabled because I'm using it with a UK SIM card?
Answering my own question: Box label says "C.P/N: ZS590KS-2A009EU" so looks like I have the EU version.
Hello. I have bought Mi 11 because Chinese seller said it supports B19 of Japan.
But I found that it is not listen B19.
Is there any way to unlock B19?
I can fount that CN rom listen LTE B1/2/3/4/5/7/8/20/28/38/40/41 in default settings.
Best regards.
That sounds strange, according to the specifications page, the Chinese version of Mi 11, in comparison to the international version, has additional support for B18/B19/B26 (for Japan) and B34/B39 (for China), but your Mi 11 does not support these bands when using CN ROM, I suspect that your Mi 11 may be the international version.

Mine is international version but I update FW to CN rom because I have to use voice call recording and international version does not support what I want.

Is there any way to check supported bands?
