Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910 Factory Unlocked International Model

Goes on Sale on Amazon starting October 3rd for $899.00

This SUCKS, that seller is not allowing purchases from Canada:crying:. Please keep posting links for the International models as they become available. Huge thanks

Amazon:
"SIM Micro-SIM Memory Internal 32 GB, 4 GB RAM Card slot microSD, up to 128 GB"

They also don't specify which model it is. It just says "Item model number: SM-N910." Doesn't say if it's the S or the C.

I can't find "Exynos" anywhere on this page: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SM-N910-Factory-Unlocked-International/dp/B00N2Y5ALK

To be clear the phone is NOT being sold by Amazon, it's being sold by a secondary seller named "DeltaMobiles."
However, their feedback is pretty good... 4.7 stars / 3407 reviews.
http://smile.amazon.com/gp/aag/main...=ATVPDKIKX0DER&orderID=&seller=A2GKOXTPZV7SMA
Their price was also about fifty dollars cheaper last week.

Does anybody know when does Samsung and other providers start to sell this unlocked phone officially, is it on the actual release date or later?

I have attempted to contact them to verify the compatible LTE bands. Can I assume it is not compatible with US band specifically att?

well, seems like the international will have 4 gb of RAM, this is not the first place where I see 4 GB RAM, not sure about the USB v3 maybe a typo. But doesn't hurt to place a pre-order they don't take you credit card info anyways

I wouldn't say that. the second link doesn't even have the right picture.. it also has "Expected announcement date" which makes me think the site was created before the announcement before we REALLY knew the specs..
I'd say its inaccurate and wrong.

Yep that is possibility too. On amazon I saw some store was taking pre orders with similar description 4 GB for the international edition, might be wrong might be true we will find out soon. However, it doesn't hurt to make pre-order in case if its true at least you will have some reservation. Also as I said they don't take you credit card, so you won't have to deal with "wrong charges" and etc.

there is no SM-N910 Model Number, pre-order available in the UK from http://www.clove.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-note-4
but when asked what Model Number, they replied :
I'm not sure yet exactly which model number we will have here, although I do know that the model numbers reflect the 'sales region' that the phone is intended for.
Clove sell UK stock so whichever model number(s) are for the UK then this/these will relate to our stock.

That also looks like it is the exynos version.
Here is my response from Delta Mobiles.
Hello,
The phone will support 4G/LTE with any "GSM" carrier as long as it supports the frequencies. Here are the frequencies for 4G/LTE:*4G LTE : *800/850/900/1800/2100/2600. Let me know if you have additional questions.
Have a great day!
-Steph

I presume that 'unlocked' means not locked to any carrier. It is NOT bootloader unlocked (ie. not rootable or ROM installable). Correct?

Yeah, it never means bootloader unlocked..

Import to UK

Hi,
I would like to purchase a Note 5 - ideally Dual Sim (but doesn't have to be) in the UK. Several sites offer a 32GB Dual Sim Variant. I don't really want 32GB but if the price is right I would consider it. A few offer 64GB but at crazy prices.
Several site offer a dual sim variant that seems to support 1800Mz 4G - which should work on Three/EE UK. They don't advertise the model number well though.
Any other gotchas? The warranty isn't super critical to me as I tend to keep phones for only 6 months and then sell on. I know I will take a resale hit, but I can probably live with that.

Mate I ordered mine yesterday Note 5 dual sim 64GB gold for £638 from Ebay (Should be delivered by Monday/Tuesday). similar to you I am not much worried about warranty as I keep changing my phones in 3-4 months.
The only thing I hate about Ebay and importing phones is VAT charges.
Have a look there are some decent prices there for dual and single sim variants.
So annoyed at Samsung for not releasing it here in UK.

I hope it works out well for you. I have imported a few phones - but usually for much less money. Fingers crossed the seller marks it with a very low value as otherwise the tax will push that up quite a bit.
And yeah, its frustrating that its not going to be released officially soon. There were some rumours of the 28th - maybe some announcement - but I doubt it.

n920i
I bought a 64gb N920i from ebay this week
I can confirm that it doesnt recognise 4G on Vodafone however when I pop a EE sim in, 4G is picked up straight away

Do you like it? Worth the money? And do you mind saying how much you paid?

The N920i varient doesnt support band 20 (800 Mz) so it wont work on vodafone 4G. EE and Three use 1800 Mz so technically is is 4G but 800 Mz is where you wanna be. the AT&T version seems to support band 20 though.

I have both the unlocked a version and the international I version. Vodafone works on an unlocked a version. Only issue with at&t is bloat ware which can be disabled and the locale being set to us only. This means the date format is wrong. Other than that can confirm it works on Vodafone

In the same boat and looking at the Note 5 N920A. I cant justify spending almost a thousand euros on the edge plus.
Can you confirm if the N920A works flawlessly with LTE on Vodafone (Band 20)

Yes works flawlessly on the A version. Would recommend 64gb version. Got mine from here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151791148...49&var=450987358361&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Whats the story with "Clean IMEI"?
I just did a brief search on ebay for the N920A and i can see "Clean IMEI" in the description of some phones

My understanding is that it means that the phone is not a contract phone (under finance) and that AT&T do not have the ability to blacklist the phone and prevent it working on their networks.

Does the n920A version works with all 4g networks in the UK or only with Vodafone and O2? When you received it was it with broken seal?

I have ordered n9208 have been told all networks work but three UK.

>920A
>920T
>920C
>920CD (dual sim)
these are compatible with all european 4G/lte bands/operators (FDD B20/800mhz enabled)
no FDD B20/800mhz band on most other models:
>9208
>9200
>920i
etc etc
this means no 4G on three UK

N920I vs N920G

I understand that the N920I is the International version, but what is the difference between it and the N920G? I'm looking to pick up one of these two unlocked to run on AT&T.

Get the N920i, many users in the states have it and its running great on AT&T.
Not sure the other model will have the same bands on AT&T.

Any thoughts on the N920C model? Has all the same bands and got marshmellow before the N920I model. I wanna pick one up for AT&T.

I think you should be fine - the bands match up with AT&T so I don't see an issue.
I personally tested the N920i model - so I can speak with confidence regarding that variant.

Thanks and the N920i seems to be the more popular variant and I read somewhere that the 'i' model doesn't come with bloat but the 'c' model does.. Since so many people swear by the 'i' model then it's prob wise to go with that one..

Yea, when I used the N920i on AT&T, I had no issues whatsoever.
I was able to install international ROMs and T-Mobile ROMs on there with ease.
I think you'll be perfectly happy with that choice. Enjoy!

Thanks. Def appreciate it..

Looking to get an Unlocked Note 5...Model?

I am looking to get an Unlocked Note 5 in Silver (does anyone have this or have you seen it - does it look as good in person)
My question is:
There are many unlocked versions, but I believe there are several versions that may work in the US
But I am thinking it is one of: N920C or N9200 or N920I (I am thinking it is the N920I, with the "I" standing for International?)
Can anyone tell me which works on GSM in US, T-Mobile
Thanks

I would stay away from the N920C if you are going to use it in the US. I have the N920C and on ATT network it is getting only 3G and the signal is considerably weaker than on other phones compatible with ATT.

What does the N920C stand for. I think I need the "I" don't you.

They are designed for different continents. The N920I is for - Australia, New Zealand, Singapore. The N920C is for middle east, russia, africa, israel ...etc. If you can get the Unlocked T-mobile variant, you're good. Otherwise checkout the willmyphonework.net or the "The Ulimate Note 5 Band Guide."

Are you sure the I isnf for international.
That's what I wanna know. What one is able to be used. There is no such thing as a T-Mobile unlocked version. Yes there is one that works on T-Mobile, ATT etc. If you hear of the specific model I'd be grateful.

Thank you really ALot. I tried that and they got 2 blue checks and a yellow. So the same #frustrating

I bought the N920i version and work perfectly with ATT and TMOBILE. It have an amazing internet speed, i'm talking about more than 45MBPS.
Is a grate phone.

Thank you. I was thinking that was for International. Then I saw some sites (Expansys) who was selling the N9200 and was told they were the same.
thanks so much

Yes, N9200 is pretty much the same as N920i but dual sim card model. It should work in US. Be careful, this model can come from China and Google apps may be a problem.
I have ordered this model from Expansys and it should come from South Korea.

Spoke to Samsung via chat, NewEgg and Best Buy most will work to some degree here . BUT they said the one made for gsm carriers in US is the N920G. It can be had on NewEgg or Expansys but def eBay Amazon and Best Buy for $100 more than other places

just adding my 2 cents worth: i'm using a 64GB Silver SM-N9208 (Taiwan - CSC is BRI) dual SIM Note 5 on ATT & T-Mobile and it's working great. no network issues at all. 5 of the 10 people on my current project use Note 5's (including me); the other 4 Note 5 users are in awe of my device, especially the Silver color and the fact that i can make/receive calls from both SIMs at the same time.

There are so many threads dealing with this issue.
You should either use the above website or use pdadb.net to see which LTE bands a particular model uses and then compare that to the LTE bands your carrier uses (which is what the above website actually does)

Both N920C and N920I should work fine in US except one 3G band for T-Mobile....but when it comes to Software updates...what do you think is first to get official updates? N920I being the Australia model, would it be after N920C? I heard sometimes its after even US models...Thoughts?

Looking for Note 5 Duos, opinion needed

I'm looking into buying a Note 5 duos since I have 2 lines and it would be convenient to have them both in one phone even though they can't both be on 3G voice at once. My question is which model Duos should I buy? For updates, rooting and stuff like that. I see there's a N9200, N9208 and N920. Which one should I choose? Yes, the cheapest one is preferable lol

I would suggest a n920C dual sim aka N920CD I bought in middle east and its working without a problem here in Germany. Thats my suggestion because its an international model like "I" variant but with dual sim support. If you're a fan of new software and roms you can always use roms from "I", "G" and of course "C" variants on your "CD" without a problem, but keep that in mind that you have dual sim support as long as you use a C based kernel and a dual sim supporting rom.

SO basically take whatever is cheaper they will work the same. Is there a chance that one model's bootloader will be unlocked than another?

I got N9200 (HK) in Japan and It's working great. :good:

All duos are same except price and region, n9208 have more users and custom roms like dr ketan and ioio rom

From what I see on ebay, the N9200 is a bit more expensive that's why I'm wondering why that is...do we know what exact LTE bands the N9208 supports?

N9208 has good developer support and 64gb version is fairly cheap. Work great here in UK on 3 and Vodafone.

I use galaxy note 5 N9208 Malaysia! There is little kernel and rom for it too!
