Hello guys
Im thinking to get one of those phones: Samsung Galaxy Note3 or Samsung Galaxy Note 3 duos (SM-N9002).
I like SM-N9002 because it has dual sim.
Please help me to decide which one to get?
Thanks

if you are choosing between the N9005 and the N9002,
in terms of hardware, they are practically the same except the dual sim version (N9002) supports only 3G up to HSPA+
while the single sim (N9005) will support LTE.
another thing of note is that the N9002 is a China exclusive model; it will still work for most carriers worldwide but the main catch is that it does not come with Google play store and google apps pre-installed. This can easily be rectified though by rooting and installing a custom ROM.
other than that, the N9002 is currently the king of dual sim phones worldwide; with premium flagship specifications.
so the choice would depend on your priority for LTE vs Dual sim.

Thanks very much!!!
you might regret choosing 9002 if you are a update maniac
Anyone know what the different models of the S7 Edge are going to be? If precise information (bands, capacity, dual sim, etc..) can be shown this could be useful.
Thanks

The main difference is in the CPU/GPU and different radio chips i presume. The America`s will have the SD 820 cpu and Europe and maybe the rest of the world the Exynos 8890.

Agreed. But i would like to have more info. Like the note 5 has so many variants. N920I / C / CD / 9200 / G / K / T etc...
The US, EU and Asians don't have the same bands it could be tricky for the buyer who is in a hurry to buy the wrong one.
I can't seem to find the different models online.

Great list! which means that the G935FD would be the European Dual Sim variant... for once Europe might just get a good dual sim galaxy.

Check eBay if you are in a hurry, there is I think 1 more for grabs of the g935fd. Apparently the second SIM slot can also be used for sdcard in case you don't need the second SIM.... But that is still to be checked.

It can definitely be used as SD if you wish. Go to samsung.com and switch to Indonesia. Find out more on s7 and edge, click on hardware and scroll down, and you will see dual sim.
I have tried the same with a few European countries and yet to find one with dual sim.
More preciso

It's indeed funny that the Swiss site only shows the SD and doesn't mention the dual sim (i'm from CH like you).
I just called Swisscom, and they had no idea if it was possible...So i contacted Samsung Switzerland and they told me that the phones sold in Switzerland will only have the possibility of having 1 sim and 1 SD (G935F EUR model), and that the second slot will not be able to take an extra SIM (they could be wrong). So the G935FD is going to be a rare beast...
the G935F is going to host the Exynos (which we all knew i guess)
I've been reading a lot about dual Sim phones recently. Correct me if I'm wrong but to my understanding it is not enough that is is hardware-ready, it needs 2 IMEIs as well.
Let's take the recent Galaxy A series for example, they all have a hybrid tray SIM1 + SIM2/SDCard but they are being restricted here in Germany (and probably elsewhere). Being sold as single SIM capable
If we take the previous Galaxys like the S5 Duos (G900FD) and the Note 5 (N920CD) for reference, the SM-G935FD will most probably be sold in the UAE and will support Europeans LTE Bands 3, 7 and 20.
Are all these international phones locked to local carriers? You can't buy a UK 935f and pop a US AT&T sim in it, right?

The European ones are generally unlocked. They will have different radios to US ones so your reception and battery life may not be as good as a US version.
G935F- 1SIM Chip CPU Exynos 8890
G935FD-2SIM Chip CPU Exynos 8890
G935T- 1SIM Chip CPU Snapdragon 820

935F and 930F are models made for the EU. Got confirmation from samsung and operators in the EU. So the D would logically be the dual on these models. Right?

Hello. currently I am using S6 edge+ duos HK in UK. All is working perfect. Any idea where to order S7 edge dual sim which will be working in UK?
ebay

So, do you think all s7 can work with dual sim inserted?

Frist, there's no "S7 edge dual sim" phone. It's just "S7 edge". And it's HYBRID dual sim, not dual sim. Which means you have to choose between a storage card and a second sim card. You can't have both.

SM-G935FD is the Hybrid Dual Sim Model.
In Europe we will only see SM-G935F which is NOT a hybrid dual sim.
I hope i am wrong but...

I don't think. I call Samsung UK and they said that they not planning to release dual sim in UK.

I am not wrong. My statement was very clear.
Hybrid dual sim is not supported with the UK/EUROPE model SM-G935F.
You may call the sim tray "Hybrid" or whatever, but it will only accommodate your single microSim and your microsSD card.

Calm down... no need to shout or being rude;
Go here - http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/mobile-devices/smartphones/galaxy-s/galaxy-s7/hardware/ and read the MicroSD information. No dual sim functionality/Dual SIM card - thus no "Hybird dual sim" as i stated on my original comment.
Now, go to http://www.samsung.com/cn/consumer/mobile-phones/smart-phone/galaxy-s/galaxy-s7/hardware/ and read the same paragraph. Dual SIM card is supported.

To me it will be possible to get a "hybrid" sm-G935FD from Russia, India, United Arab Emirates, China, indonesia. ....
Just check the local Samsung web pages:
samsung.com/ae/consumer/mobile-devices/smartphones/galaxy-s/galaxy-s7/hardware/
and change the country after samnsung.com/
ae is for United Arab Emirates/in for india/cn for China/ru for Russia ......
You will see on those pages the possibility of dual sim.
If you check the french page (fr) or japanese (jp) there is no dual sim option
I am looking for a S7 edge dual sim 64gb and it's going to be difficult to find ....
Just pre ordered dual sim from UAE, and yes i contacted axiom and they said its dual sim model g935F
Price is way better than Europe too
Axiomtelecom dot com uae not ksa for selecting the region

Nice catch kloodee;
Do you know what 4G bands the UAE model supports?
No idea but for me im on three network on the UK and based on a previous purchase 4G worked fine
Its intersting to know that in the UAE its a snapdragon processor with dual sim standby
For me i need two sims and sd, i might attempt doing the sd/sim hack to take full advantage of the phone
For shipping from UAE i paid around 35£ to ship 2 phones with super fast delivery after march 11
Good luck and i hope this helps !

I will buy this phone, no need for extra storage, 32 for me is a plenty,
Must have 2 lines, how sure are you it will have dual phone capabilities? That's all I'm interested in knowing, and do you by any chance know the model number to look for?
Thanks

You are wrong. Your "big manager" friend is wrong. Not all S7 Edge's are hybrid dual sim. Only specific models.
I bought my S8+ yesterday and found out it's the Duos variant, meaning it can accommodate 2 SIM cards. So instead of the Galaxy S8+ branding is written on the back of the device it says Duos. My OCD tingles to no end.
Anyway, is this variant (SM-G955FD) just the same S8+ variant (SM-G955F) but just have the ability to use 2 SIM cards? Same specs, same everything?
I bought my daughter an S5 Duos before and it's just not the same compared to the regular S5. It looks like a dumb-down version to me especially the screen.
I installed Samsung INFO from the Play Store and it show SM-G955F not 955FD (D for Duos, I suppose). But when I look at the phone information from the Settings app, it say 955FD. Strange.

Dubai. It seems like they're only selling that variant here. A friend of mine has the Duos variant too.
Cant comment specifically on the S8 Duos (I have an S8) but did have an S6 Duos. Everything was the same as regular S6 - Even the firmware - I flashed different stock ROMS on it a few times and just used the F moniker with no issue - Ie, because I wanted EE Wifi calling, I flashed the EVR firmware.
I imagine it will be the same with the S8 and S8+ Duos

Actually that's what I'm afraid of. If ever I wanted to mess around with my phone by installing an custom ROM if the phone updates comes very slowly for the S8, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to use a ROM that's only been tested on a SM-G955F (without D for Duos). I hope you get what I'm saying.
My friend said it's the same hardware that I don't need to be worrying about it.
hey this is strange.... i just went to my phone>about tab and see mine says Sm-G955FD (dual sim variant) but phone info app says its a G955F which is europe single sim variant. funny. ? any one can shed some light on this?
