So I'm interested in getting an unlocked Galaxy Tab 10.1 w\ GSM support, so I went out on the intertubes and searched it. I'm seeing there's a 10.1 and a 10.1v that have "GSM support" which I'd assume are quad band and will work with GSM frequencies around the world?
I'm curious if anyone knows where online or offline these can be purchased. I read that people had bought them from Vodafone UK, but going to their site it shows they're not even released yet.
Thanks!
3G (GSM) version of Galaxy Tab 10.1 is not yet released. It will be released in Europe in the beginning of July. Can be purchased then from Amazon.de or notebooksbilliger.de for around 600 EUR (3G, 16 GB version, no microSD slot)

Does Amazon.de deliver to the US?
What's the diff between the 10.1v and the 10.1? I remember reading that one was the thinner model, but can't remember which was which.
Thanks!
Not sure about Amazon.de delivering to US, but most probably they dont.
Because Amazon.com does not deliver to Europe either
The new one is 10.1.
The 10.1v is the old one (thicker), so don't buy this 10.1v.

Hmm, good info on 10.1 vs 10.1v.
I guess a trip to London will be in my future... just sucks they don't release these models in the US... we get hosed with the USD>EUR or USD>GBP conversion, lol

Why are you telling people not to buy the 10.1v? 10.1v is superior..

Elaborate...
Um, 10.1V Had around an hour more battery. 3MP Camera compared to 8MP is nothing to 'lol' about either.
EDIT* The only thing better about the 10.1 is that's it lighter and thinner.
10.1v is the old model, why do you want to buy older model?
10.1v is still not officially updated to Android 3.1, and we don't know when it will get the update?
10.1v is thicker, this is personal and I like the look of the new 10.1
10.1v has 6800 mAH battery, the new one has 7000 mAH
10.1 has cool flip cover:
http://www.androidcentral.com/flip-case-samsung-galaxy-tab-101
Sure, the 10.1v has better rear camera (8MP vs 3MP), but I don't need that camera as I have my Android phone
So, those are some of my reasoning that enough for me to make decision to not buy the old 10.1v!

Or you can quote specs like they mean anything @ all as far as the battery. Is it really hard to go to Google and see 10.1V has better battery?
VERY good Camera
OR the fact that you can actually use 3G on the 10.1V?
I quoted the mAH number, that's all. Usage pattern might be different for each person, 10 hours yours might be 11 hours OR 9 hours mine
It depends on how do you use your tab, the apps/widgets that you have and the OS version (3.1 vs 3.01).
But, the mAH rate is something you can "compare".
This is the 10.1:
http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxytab/10.1/spec.html
And this is the 10.1v:
http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxytab/10.1v/specification.html
See that? 7000 mAH versus 6860 mAH.
And that's from the official Samsung website.
About 3G, both will have 3G model In Europe, the 10.1 3G will be released first, Amazon.de will have it end of this month.
Or are you saying the 10.1 will not have 3G model?
About the camera, the rear camera, I don't care
As I don't use rear camera on tablet anyway. I will look like an idiot making photo using that big device hehehehe. I use my phone for making photo!
Oh and I really like that cool flip cover of 10.1 !!!! LOL

Can't be mad with your nicely toned reply. But, what I am stating is the 10.1V is in all aspects= the 10.1 and having a 8MegaPixel Cam(Although im not a photo freak) and the ability right now to use a Sim card makes it superior. 3G 10.1 coming next month is not for U.S.....
10.1=10.1V I only am defending the 10.1V because the person told the guy not to buy it like it was a worse product...
Well, I am just stating facts and my opinion regarding both. I think that's clear from what you read here.
As it is my opinion, I think I am free to say that, telling anyone to not buy the older model.
I assume the OP can decide him or her self, whether to buy or not
I am not enforcing or anything. This is an open forum and I give my opinions with all my reasoning.

Odds are also, the GSM version being released in EU will not work on the US 3G bands, rather just the regular GPRS or Edge bands (except for Tmobile in some areas). ATT uses the 850 band, which is not used in EU.

Yeah it's a bummer AT&T has to be so different and difficult :-(
I travel internationally a lot, so I'd love a GSM version that works in most countries... lots easier than trying to find wifi everywhere.

Oh, I didn't say to buy one!
Just letting those that talked about US releases know that it's near.
Wifi and unlimited 4G phone tether with Sprint works fine for me...
The European 3G version will be quad band, so it will support both EU and US frequencies.
This is the specs from amazon.de.
Some speculation: The US version will use the same chip, doing otherwise would complicate things and that wouldn't make much sense. The FCC only mention the US frequencies because those are the only ones used over there.
I'm planning on getting the AT&T version, and bring it back to Europe in August.
So, it looks like the Samasung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi version will be £399 over here in the UK on release, available from PC World and Currys.
With the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 UK price starting at just £399 (the same price as the lowest-spec iPad 2), it's expected to make tablet waves when it lands in August.

About time and still not a peep from Samsung UK.
Cool I just bought the US model for £342, so still a fair saving compared to the original UK price.
are the 3G versions sim-free or locked to Verizon or other carriers ?

Try living in Denmark then. The cheapest model is priced at 3.699 - 3.799 DKK, which is roughly equal to $717 - $736. And don't even think about trying to import such a device from the US. VAT is 25%, and an additional import tax to the danish postal service is roughly $35 -- so it's not even worth the trouble.
I'm unsure about 3g models, i opted for the WIFI only model and just wifi tether with my GS2 if need H or 3G whilst out and about..
I've also kept the stock US Honeycomb, I tried the TOUCHWIZ Rom on here but found it really slow so i'll wait for the US or UK release for the upgraded software, hopefully it will have some improvments.
£489 for a US 32GB mettalic grey model, not bad and was delivered next day from Brighton too. Digigoods on ebay I think the shop was called.

I saw the Digigood deals on Amazon a little while ago, I was put off by the incorrect product description (i.e said 32 gig when it was actually a 16 gig version), also had concerns about not having a UK warranty.
Well, they give you a year's warranty and then you get the usual Samsung warranty once you register your tab with them. Not bad really.

Actually I got it from eBay, the seller had decent reviews so I thought what the heck. I couldn't get it ordered from online German retailers since the only one which could ship to India was charging me 290 Euro for shipping. It is set to be shipped today and then delivered within 3-5 business days, hope it goes well.
EDIT : It was 820$(USD) plus 79$ for shipping. I'm not sure what the import duty will be, but I'll deal with it.
good luck with indian customs ... im sure saale bahut jyaada charge karenge tujhko .. all the best !
I only had to pay 14% for my ipad 2, it can't be more than that. Plus I chose fedex which has there own custom clearance department so it gets processed faster.

That's still so expensive..smh.. hope its price is lower when it launches in India.. 40k+ Rs is just too much.. its supposed to be a hybrid of galaxy tab 750 and a galaxy s2.. so ithe price is supposed to be in between.. but since Samsung doesn't want to interfere in the sell of the new galaxy tab, it is costlier.. and besides there is still no other product in d phoblet department to compete with the galaxy note.. so its goin to be expensive here too ,I guess
It's supposed to arrive today

One hopes that both Samsung and HTC don't increase the price by another 10k like they did last year..........actually if they do then Note4 suddenly becomes a interesting option..
India as usual should have a May release i guess...so i am not going to wait for it and will get a unit from US...the price should be the same as last time
I feel the price would be just 50k. Anything more than that will make it really difficult, whith those iPhones and Galaxies coming into the picture!
Though it sure looks like a great device, if only I could own one.
The price would be hovering around 45 - 50k I would say 48k being the sweet spot...
S6 and S6Edge gonna retail around 52 - 68k with the 128gig option not available for us
Getting it from US makes more sense as the expected price there is 600usd which is still 12 to 14k lesser than the price here. You don't get warranty then though.
