Both seem to be the Gateway V2 thats necessary to connect all the zigbee sensors
Thank you!
I have the same dilemma. Which works? Both?
I will take from first link, the second should be the same (the same P/N) but they give strange photos with different gateways 
Right now I would not recommend any Xiaomi Gateway because their latest firmware does not work anymore with home assistant.
