Is the setup the same for all phones?

Hello, I have a Redmi A5; I see it on the list, but I can’t tell if it’s actually compatible—everything is written in English.

Is the setup the same for all phones?

I want to point out that it has never been turned on; it is brand new. I’m not sure if I should perform the initial startup.

Thank you
