Is my Z pro fake?

I have received my z pro less than a week ago and already have a page-long list of bugs... one of the things bothering me the most is that the back of my phone is not the same as every single phone I see online! All of them have CE0700 in big letters and then some small letters. Mine only has small lettering and the 0700 in even smaller lettering. I have NEVER seen a Z pro look like this in any photo or video review in the WEB. Is mine fake or what?

CE large on mine and 0700 very small.

Really? I've never seen that before except for mine. Was wondering why would the same factory (I suppose) make 2 different covers for the same model...

With the CE marking, the manufacturer declares, according to EU Regulation 765/2008 "that the product complies with the applicable requirements laid down in the harmonization rules of the Community concerning its installation".

The CE marking is therefore not a quality seal, but an identification mark which is to be produced by the manufacturer at his own discretion and by means of which he expresses the particular requirements of the product marketed by him and that it corresponds to this.

0700 maybe means VDE 0700 = A German standard - Safety of electrical appliances for domestic use and similar purposes

The dashed waste bin means
that electrical appliances and electronic devices must not be disposed of via household waste.

Yes, yes, I know that. I'm just surprised that the markings on the back cover of my z pro are different from ALL the ones I've seen all over the net, including reviews originating from various europena and asian countries...

On my Z Pro the 0700 very small and the CE very large.
0700 CE

In my Z PRO says Designed by UMIDIGI and under that phrase says Android Smartphone Assembled in China and below that appear these icons, A crossed out barrel of rubbish, an exclamation mark with a circle, the number "0700" in small and one CE large

I bought mine on April 14 from TomTop if that helps you with the age of yours. As SUPER-USER says they are compliance marks rather than a sign of authenticity. If you are having random problems with the phone doing a flash of the ROM as per the instructions in the ROM section of the forum has been shown to help. The Z Pro is my second UMi phone and both of them have improved with a ROM flash. An OTA update doesn't fix anything.
