I have ordered a Mi 8 with 8GB RAM and 256GB Flash instead of the version with 6GB RAM and 256GB (it is not Explorer Edition, nor SE)
What do you know about this version, is it original? It is not listed on many Xiaomi sites, but i have found some articles that says Xiaomi also launched this version.
Also, do you think there will be any problems with installing a ROM? Since it has 8Gb Ram instead of 6Gb?
It may be a typo. You'll probably receive the 6/256 version
Yes, i already inquired about an 8gb / 256 and it doesn't exist (atleast 1.5 weeks ago). I ended up buying the 8gb/128gb version (blue) instead. Hope you didn't pay extra for the advertised 8gb, since i agree you will probably get the 6gb/256gb version.

So I live in Puerto Rico, and switched to Claro from T-Mobile. I expected a regular 64GB model, but the store I went to only had 128GB oddly enough, which was overkill for my usage, but I got it anyways. They told me it was a limited edition Orchid Grey 128GB model.
I saw it's a 128GB version of the N950F, but when I looked online, only the chinese snapdragon N9500 model. I only could find my model in the Claro PR website, and nowhere else.
I have a few shots below, showing the N950F model, the storage and the outside box.
With 128GB + 64GB, I'll never have to worry about space now I guess :laugh:
P.S. What's the most up to date unlocked firmware? Claro's firmware is ancient and downloads too much bloat (5 useless apps, 5 bad games downloaded right away ffs)

Here in Mexico the 128 GB variant is the only official model available from The 3 major carriers, samsung on line refers you to telcel, at&t or movistar, if you want a 64 gig or 256 gig, the only option is a no -warranty gray market one, but samsung mexico will
not accept them for warranty claims

So it's a Latin-American thing apparently.
Looking at buying the x4, and want to make sure I get the proper version so I can unlock the bootloader, root, twrp, and all the fun stuff ?
This is the standard version, not the Prime exclusive:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074VFRKZG/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdo_t1_lfJwCbTV5AKKQ
That version should be good, correct?
Thanks in advance,
I got the android one for $165 from here: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1449873-REG
I ended up getting the Android one edition from BH photo as well. I spent a little more to get the 4 gb ram, 64 gb rom version
best buy is selling the android one unlockable bootloader 64gb, 4gb of ram (their website incorrectly described it as 3gb ram) for $200. I bought two and successfully obtained the bootloader unlock codes from Motorola for both. I assume, but do not know for sure, that the 32gb, 3gb ram android one phones best buy sells for $150 are also unlockable.
great deal

Guys,
With an earlier post I made stating my possible purchase of this product, I want to buy from AliExpress because most Amazon & eBay items don't ship to my location and those that do cost a hell lot for shipping and also custom charges.
On AliExpress, there's the 12GB/512GB model but it has Tencent Games on it not Republic of Gamers.
Is there any significant difference between the two which I should consider (I use two networks and their 4G bands are 3, 7 & 20)?
It would be nice to have Republic of Gamers on it though.
Samsung and Best Buy show it has 6 GB RAM, Amazon and B&H show 8 GB RAM. Given that there's an Unlocked Sub-6 5G model, a Verizon UW model, European 4G and 5G models, it would be nice to get clarification on which models get what specs.

Phonearena says the non-5G (exynos EU) variant has 6GB of RAM
German reviewer who has an Exynos sample in hand said only 256gb version will have 8gb.
US models should only have 6GB. Only in China and EU with 8gb variants w/ 256gb
The model sold on Samsung is the same Amazon 8GB/128GB. I chatted with the Samsung eCommerce customer service to confirm.
Here is how I got the better deal in my opinion compared to Amazon
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s20-fe/how-to/how-to-best-pre-deal-samsung-t4168583
The Samsung UK site says 8GB and the US site says 6GB.
I sent a DM to Samsung UK and they said it is 6Gb for 4G model (Exynos) and 8Gb for 5G model.
Not sure I believe it to be honest. Both 4G and 5G in the UK come in 128Gb ROM size, no 256Gb option here.
What a mess .... I too don't understand the 6G/8G confusion.
In Europe the 5G (Snapdragon variant) is listed everywhere as having 6GB of mem.
No official specs on Samsung site?
In france it's the same thing, 6GB even with the 5G version.
And on Samsung shop, there's the 128GB + 6GB Ram for 5G and no mention of 256GB version, only a 512GB but not available !
I'm expecting 6GB of RAM and definitely so scattered with info
According to a staff member at bhphoto, the USA S20 FE 5G version sold in New York City site is 8GB, despite the website still listing it as 6GB. We have no idea what to expect
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1595232-REG/samsung_sm_g781uzbmxaa_galaxy_s20_fe_5g.html/qa
After speaking with Samsung UK online sales
All UK models come with 6Gb RAM. Their website incorrectly states 8Gb and has been reported to be fixed
You are right
It is 6GB. It's right there stated on this page under the "AP and RAM" section
https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-s20-5g/s20-fe-5g/
The model number they are selling here matches the Amazon model and thus Amazon's 8GB is wrong too.
The UK site says 8GB under the AP and RAM bitnon the site, it's wrong though
Not 100% sure but after doing some research I have found out that in Europe model number : SM-G781BZBHEUB is for snapdragon with 8/256gb. SM-G781BZRDEUB is for Snapdragon 6/128 and SM-G780FZGDEUB is for Exynos 6/128. Where the letter after Z stands for the color. Like SM-G781BZBHEUB is blue. And please correct me if I'm wrong.
I don't know about the non EU versions but all the models mentioned above are sold example on the website of Proshop.de
Per a Samsung rep, the U.S. variant will have 6GB. Which is fine for me.
Unbelievable something like model / ram configuration so simple can be so confusing.
It's either Samsung is doing this intentionally fogging things up or they are really doing a crap job at putting these information out.
My US, T-Mobile phone has 6gb of RAM.
I have a retail UK device. It's the 5G model SM-G781B and it has 6GB RAM.
I received my preorder yesterday and it's the Snapdragon 865 version (UK) it has 6GB RAM / 128GB
I just ordered the SM-G781BZBHEUB, which should be 8/256. If anyone has new info on whether this 5G snapdragon version has 6 or 8 gigs of RAM it would be very appreciated so I can cancel the order before it gets shipped. I'm not going to buy a 6 gb ram phone in 2020, there's just no future-proofing in that.
