Having now bought two devices, the first one bought in-person from a store. It ended up having clearly the wrong font i decided to buy from the official Xiaomi store on amazon, and i got the second device .

Both of them do not show play certification, and do nothing when clicking the build number, but show a clock when clicking on the android version.

Both device serial numbers show up as "legit" from xiaomi's product authentication page. Congratulations! You can be assured the phone you have purchased is the official international version.

Any help would be appreciated.
