All I see in AE are generics nobrand ones or models from crappy companies like gukkesomething (the ones that are blue and white)

Where can I get original xiaomi-branded batteries?

You really can't. The only other possible way is to buy a used or broken Redmi note 4. (Or just visit a service centre)

No xiaomi service centers in my continent let alone my country, and why they dont sell OEM batteries?
Marketing strategy. In this way they can force people to visit their service center, so they can earn more profit. I'll look up online if i find something on chinese retailers.

Well I already checked AE and found nothing, same with alibaba

All the publications have batteries without the MI logo so I guess generic

This sucks if you're nowhere near one of their centers

And ironically I could find spare OEM batteries for more obscure brands
