Those of you who bought the Hisense A5 from CECT-Shop with a multilingual firmware, are you satisfied with the extent of the localizations?

The reason i ask is because i bought a multilingual A5 from this source:

es.aliexpress.com/item/4000750679110.html

Turns out the only thing multilingual about that ROM is probably the listing of every conceiveable language in the related settings menu.

Whatever language other than English or Chinese is chosen, there is hardly any trace to be found in the actual system. I tried with Spanish, Catalan, French and even German, to no avail. One has to look really hard to find just a few neglectable translations in the system.

Is this also the case for the A5 with firmware choice "Multi Language (ENG/ESP/ITA etc.) - WITH Google Play Store (No OTA Updates)" available from CECT-Shop?
