Where is the 32gb version - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone managed to find a 32gb version for Europe? I can't even find any news of when it is likely to be released. A couple of ebay vendors are selling a Singaporean 32gb S5, but not sure if I should trust them, or whether they will work with the UK and European networks.
Is anyone else hanging on for the 32gb version?

Yep, waiting as well but no one seems to know when.

I just Got my LTE s5 32GB in Dubai

Good to know that it exists at least! I wonder why Samsung are delaying the release in other markets

Samaung doesn't sell anything direct to consumers. Their customers are carriers and huge distribution companies. The networks only want 16gb in the UK. So a 32gb won't appear.

Agree not sure why they can't sell the unlocked models on their website like HTC, Moto, Sony, Apple does (atleast in the US). I would definitely buy the unlocked model without carrier crap and ugly branding. Sure root and remove the crap, but why not sell unlocked directly to customers like other companies do.

You mean there has never been a 32gb Samsung in the UK? Didn't know that.
How can I work out which countries phones will work on the UK network? Can't find a resource.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

Samsung lied on the Note 3 release also, promising a 64GB version which only arrived in one-two countries, If they haven't sent out any 32GB versions yet then I'd assume they won't - as another poster pointed out, with the subsidised UK Networks none will really want the 32GB version, but there *may* be a 32GB carrier free at some point in the future.. I wouldn't hold your breath tho tbh

No wonder why we are behind the rest of the world on everything. even the networks are faster then anywhere in UK. I have a 16 gb s5 and it's full, so I have to go down the root of rooting my phone so I can use the external card. shame on you phone providers.

Don't forget that the price is slightly higher due to the UK's higher vat (20%). The total price including UK vat and delivery as of last night is 480GBP, obviously its pre order though.
I traded in my s3 at car phone warehouse today and got 243 quid for it and my note 2 was 549..so only had to pay 300 for this.
Super impressed.. However bit gutted when I got it home and realised that I had read the USA specs for it which said 4G capable.. And the UK one isn't :-\

According to Three, they are locked and will cost you 15.32GBP to get it unlocked.
Anyone have more info if 3 have them locked or unlocked, I would like to get one from them but need it to work on O2.
My PAYG from Three seems to be unlocked... i put in a Voda PAYG sim, and it got onto the network OK. wasnt able to test calls since no credit on card... was one of the 1st batch on launch day, so they might lock later ones??
02 current brochure have note 2 16gb @ £479.99 dont know if unlocked but i know its not the lte version as thats not out yet...its coming out after oct 15th i think when EE starts rolling...hence why im waiting to see if it supports o2 frequency ready for next years o2 lte...before i buy the 32gb version.

I am in Japan right now and I can tell you it's not released, I couldn't even find it in Akihabara. I am pretty much the only person riding the subway with one right now.
If I heard correctly, it should release at the end of this month along with the Galaxy gear. (I couldn't find these either, in fact people were very surprised when they saw me receive my e-mails on my watch)

Not the currently allocated spectrum, though some new frequencies are planned that aren't supported by international devices. Otherwise you can get LTE service from pretty much every carrier in Japan assuming you have the right SIM card in. Even KDDI although you can't place calls on it because it tries to switch back to the CDMA CS domain and the phone is only GSM/WCDMA/LTE compatible
(See the attached pic for my status on KDDI LTE network with the international note 3). Also KDDI LTE sucks in Tokyo because they only use a 5Mhz bandwidth. Better get Softbank, DoCoMo or emobile for a better service. Emobile doesn't have LTE cells in subway tunnels though while the other carriers do.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Excellent information, very useful. I'm not in Tokyo so subway coverage isn't a main concern. Is it even possible to buy an unlocked Note 3 in Japan? Emobile sounds interesting, never heard about them, the only non-traditional carrier I know is Willcom. My main usage will be as a PDA rather than a phone and I expect to use it as a mobile router and tether with tablets, Ultrabook and laptop, so a fast unrestricted mobile data plan is essential, back home my data volume hovered around 100 GB a month, geospatial database usage.

Emobile offers unlimited data service for rekatively cheap and can fall back to softbank 3G when there is no LTE available. It can't use Softbank LTE though. It's data only, it doesn't offer voice plans.
It's the best quality/price service for tablets and computers.
Yes you can but an unlocked note 3 IF imported. Otherwise you can buy one from DoCoMo xi and get it unlocked later, not sure if Softbank offer that service.
The only unrestricted LTE data service that I know of is emobile, all the other services are capped.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Man, you have some hard core specific knowledge about the Japanese mobile market. How would I get a Note 3 and use it with emobile? Can I get a Note 3 from DoCoMo with only voice and add emobile data? If memory serves the big three all had data limitations on their plans, and coming from Europe I'm flabbergasted at how willing the Japanese consumer is to pay through their collective noses like they were proud of being suckers.

By looking at the image you attached, looks little bit expensive for the imported phone. The prices showed above 80,000 Yen.
Now LTE ver sells around HKD 55xx, which is around 688xx Yen.

Hum... since the none of the models sold in Japan aren't dual SIM, the only way to use DoCoMo for voice and emobile for data would be to use a mifi. Emobile has offers with those. I am using one right now while in Japan and they work great.

Good day. I am planning on buying but i heard that the only models available at local samsung stores
are the wifi only p600 ones and only 16gb. I want a 32gb model but i am not sure if local samsung stores will ever release it in
the country. Where did you buy yours? What model, price and storage capacity?
If you want 32 gb probably you can buy at the online retailer like kimstore they sold 32 gb lte version but they dont have samsung warranty i guess well 16 gb is good enough for a moderate gamer just add a 64 gb microsd card

Of course you're welcome here, it's the internet! The only reason I see for this thread being exclusive for Philippines is difference in hardware or accessories availability in that particular region that may not benefit others from reading posts here. So far I have not seen anything on this thread relevant to a specific region. But if this thread were to exclude anyone who is not Filipino, then that's just silly. The Philippines and its people are known to be very friendly and hospitable to all ethnicity. Just be prepared if no one bothers to explain any cultural differences because it would be assumed everyone here knows what is being talked about, for example:
1. Can I change my tablet to wake up by saying "Hoy!" instead of "hi Galaxy!"?
2. My wife gets mad at me when I use my tablet while we're eating dinner. She says it's too hard to clean the rice off the display. (some Filipinos prefer to eat with their hands)
3. My wife got mad at me for cursing at the tablet in front of the kids. I was only using voice search for Manny's next fight! (Pacquiao, some Filipinos can't pronounce the letter F, so F*** you could sound like Pacquiao)
By the way, I'm not racist, I'm FBI. Full Blooded Ilokano.

[Q] Will Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Work In the UK ?!

I am a UK resident and I wish to purchase a Samsung Galaxy Note 3. It's quite expensive in the UK although I was wondering if I bought it from the US, due to the currency conversion rate, it'll come out cheaper (I've previously bought the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) from the US and the overall cost still came out cheaper if had I bought it from here)
My main concern is that will the phone still work here in the UK I.e will I still be able to get calls and will my existing sim card still work (I have no problem with getting it unlocked) ?! I was asking because of the different carriers and antennas and what not. I am not a person uses LTE as my current tariff doesn't support it so I have no problem with that being like the deciding factor. I'm currently on the 3 carrier in the UK. Thank You

Don't H3G use different frequencies? I know H3G phones were a pain in the butt a while ago due to their oddball requirements, but I would imagine flashing the H3G btu firmware would resolve any "issues" as it would include their modem.
Am I barking up the wrong tree here?
As long as you don't buy it locked to verizon, sprint or at&t then it will work fine, because those networks are cdma I believe. And as the UK doesn't have any cdma networks, only gsm, the device won't work.

Yes, the ATT note will work on 3G and 3G+ networks for your carrier in the UK. 3 has no GSM (2G) and only uses the 3G 2100 band. The ATT note 3 has the following 3G bands: 850/1900/2100MHz

There are threads on here about region lock. You have to insert the 'territory' correct sim card for 3-5 mins and then lock will be removed. ou can get it removed by ringing Samsung or you can root and remove it that way.

To the op, if you are not fussed about the LTE, then Note 3 from ATT or T-mobile will work on 3G in the UK. As mentioned previously, do not buy from Verizon, Virgin, etc as they are CDMA phones and will not work in UK.
Another option is to buy from amazon USA if you are currently in the US. Get the International version.

To the op, if you are not fussed about the LTE, then Note 3 from ATT or T-mobile will work on 3G in the UK. As mentioned previously, do not buy from Verizon, Virgin, etc as they are CDMA phones and will not work in UK.

Thank you, my current tariff doesn't support LTE, and I have no interest in paying extra for it, do you how how I can get an American Note 3 apart from eBay (I'd like to keep my options open)

You must be in USA because you need to use an American Sim card first so that the region lock will be removed but I could be wrong. Whereanouts are you in UK? For maybe 50 quid worth, I would just buy feom UK. Its not worth the gamble and hassle for me
Put serious value on the warranty on a Note3 .. its not quite such a bullet proof phone as a note 2.
Also I got one here in UK at a great price just a week after launch by getting it on Voda contract then unlocking it for EE use. There must be some cheap deals in UK now surely.

I'll give it some good thought although I can't seem to find any good deals and I'm not exactly the wealthiest person so I'I'll take any cheap option can get, I'm already on a SIM only contact so I just want to purchase the phone by itself

Nexus 6, 64gb AND 32gb, to be available through T-Mobile

Hello,
According to @askdes, a T-Mobile senior product exec as well as various leaked T-Mobile documents from around the web, it appears T-Mobile will carry both storage configurations. 64GB is slated for online only though.
Does this help your decision regarding purchasing the N6? I for one am going for the 64gb, not sure what color yet share your thoughts below!

Should be $699
Most likely Midnight Blue with 64GB. I probably don't need that much space, but I'll take it anyway

That'd be a nice change. Maybe shown some love for carrying nexus devices previously and not giving Google the 3rd degree. I'm looking at you Verizon
64gb blue. G3 is white and really don't wanna do white again.
G3
That's what I'm leaning towards too, blue 64, but the white one in the video looked great...idk...probably bli

I'm getting the 64gb white. But unlocked from play store and I'll use it on metro since they now use t mobile towers if I like it.

I'm in Philadelphia,pa. I have an account with them for my mother and sister and they've been happy with it so far.
What would be cool is if we just buy it off the play store and it has all bands I could keep Verizon and just get a new sim. But I have a feeling the pre orders will only be available for the unlocked editions. If it's one phone for all carriers I could switch any time.

I would rather purchase in the store to get store support. I have order from T-Mobile over the phone/online before and any return for warranty issues or returns all has to be done with shipping the product. When you purchase a product in the store you can simply go to the store for your issues and exchange right there if needed. I really want the 64 GB but I don't want to deal with the shipping from purchasing online.

If you buy from Google they handle support pretty well. But I understand going to the store is easier. Will it be available in store as quick as they will be for pre-order online?

Oh I see. I'm on Verizon now but I'm going to order it online from google to try it out before switching providers. If one phone works on all carriers then potentially I could keep unlimited data on Verizon and just change SIM cards.

yup , I will be pre-ordering the blue 64gb if that is a option. I hope T-Mo will have the 64gb one.

Internal sales sheets and spec comparisons show both sizes and colors, with a (online) moniker next to the 64GB option.
Also, T-Mobile senior exec has verified on Twitter that T-Mobile will have the 64gb one but online only.

Emm... will the N6 from T-Mobile be locked and comes with T-Mobile own ROM with their bloatware?
