Last time when i was using Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro, i also got tricked by the 5G NSA. However, on speedtest, it still shows as LTE or 4G. On Network Cell Info app, it also shows 4G LTE. Till date, my Mi 10 Pro has been tricking me that it's 5G. I suspect it's still 4G LTE.

Let me try with my Mi 10 Pro see if Eight is really "5G"

yeah. anyway i just tested on my XMM10 Pro. No signs of fake 5G. What's your xiaomi model that got "5G"?
Maybe my Mi 10 Pro got HyperOS and removed the fake 5G.

They may just extend the 88 days period if they don't enable port in. So either ways it is a win win.
