Not wrong, that was exactly the case.

International models sold outside China had different IMEIs for both SIM slots.

However, because some people were importing the Chinese variants, PTA had issues with them, hence all this drama.

I still feel this is just bullshit and that ProPK gets our hopes up too early, as you could tell by my mean comment on their post.

Xiaomi.pk or something like that? Wasn't that the site that got everyones hopes up very recently and then got taken down by PTA?

I'm hoping this is actually OFFICIAL and not just some shady crap.

That is disappointing. Maybe because of EIS instead of OIS?
google pixelxl also has EIS and is arguably the best video cam without shakiness

so anyone got any news as to when exactly are launching here?
