Difference between unofficial and official global version

[heuss38]

Hello,

I bought a Xiaomi redmi 8, I did the verification test with the IMEI and the xiaomi website tells me that the global version is unofficial. What is the difference with the official version, in Europe?

I looked at the model number it ends with the letter "H" and not "G". On the other hand I have Google Play installed and my language, so what is the difference?

Thank you in advance.

You are lucky owner of a Global version sold in TAIWAN.
This phone has additional LTE B28 coverage, that is a big plus if your country support it.
No other change. This is the most complete version.
The installed rom is official, no problem.
You should receive official update.
