I've ordered a dual sim Note 5 for delivery mid week next week.
In this thread hopefully we can help each other to get the best from the various versions which we will import from all corners of the globe.
Edit - ordered model 9208 from Taiwan. But can now get this in the UK from UK ebay sellers. I have 4g on Vodafone only near Stratford and Canning Town in London so far.
Edit - if you want a device compatible with UK 4g networks go for the N920c variant.
I've got an imported n920i and so far no issues with calls or 3G - I don't have a 4G contract to test that but i'm on EE and this model has been tested successfully on EE 4G by others.
The other bonus of importing the n920i was it came with a UK plug, no adapter needed!
Where did you guys import from?
Awaiting Delivery of an N920i ordered from Ebay for £493.
Hoping there are no problems using on the 3 network with 4G.

I wanted a 64gb model and none were available from UK based sellers so ordered from Taiwan and I know I'll end up paying import duties.
My understanding that N9208 wont have B20 800mhz to use on Three network?

You're right about Band 20. But the 9208 spec mentions Band 18 for 800mhz. I'm not too concerned as I will use Vodafone and EE (dual sim)
Ordered the 64gb n9208 off ebay, so far so good! No import duties as well luckily 550 all in. Using 4g on ee

Mine was from ebay as well. Got the 32gb version for £464 and then import vat was £30.
Dhl text me the amount due and I paid online and it didn't delay delivery. I ordered last Thursday and it was delivered Monday so almost as quick add ordering in the uk
SM-920C bought from middle east works fine on Virgin haven't tried 4G.
N920i 64gb black no issues with Three 4G

I'd be interested in buying this
Can any one post impresions on N920i on Three UK 4G hows its working?
I'm interested too, I really want a dual sim but band 20 missing is probably a bad idea in the long run so may have to get 920c .. Heard 920cd is coming with dual sim but unclear if that's got band 20
Can anyone who has bought already tell us which eBay sellers you used so we know which are trustworthy? Cheers!

Those approx. mhz numbers can be confusing, we have to stick to the Bxx codes and ask for them when they are missing.
While B18, B19 and B20 are often marked as "800mHz", you can see from the table in the link with precise frequencies none will work for the other.

It seems like many Arabians (UAE,Kuwait,Egypt etc) are active in here i think we deserve a united thread for all our news/discussions starting with release dates/prices so i hope this will be the one thread for all of us
So far the Note II landed in Kuwait/UAE for about 760$ and supposed to land in KSA in 3/4 days for 740$ I'm interested in prices W/O warranty to be honest anyone knows supposed prices for these units?
Great topic for MEA users.
I already sold my SGnote and waiting to buy Note 2. It'll be in KSA within a week and price is 2700SR from Axiom.

How much does it coast in Jordan?
Only 2 hours of driving from Israel
Just kidding... Of course Israel is no included in the middle east releases... We have here a very bad importer! It took them forever to get the first Note. (They import fast only the Galaxy S series)
Hi,
Does anyone know if the model sold in the Middle East is 4G/LTE enabled?
I asked Handtec and they told me that the model they have in stock is 3G only

I honestly dont know mate, and believe me they will never be as bad the importers here in Egypt, quite annoying to find the Note prices in Canada (Int version) are higher than the Gulf/ME so i will just get it from here :angel:

I checked a Saudi Telecom company website to check if they have the note and its their for pre-orders and in the listings it says 4G,but honestly the whole middle east will get the international version which INDEED have 4G, but we already dont have 4G so its quite useless maybe that's what he meant that it wont work so only 3G will work :fingers-crossed:
Is it already being sold in Jordan ?

I wouldn't recommend to buy without warranty, you end up paying around a 100 $ less and take a risk of getting a faulty device.

A final solution for all availability should be announced soon, until then i will re-open this thread. But i ask all to keep this thread to availability, any other posts should be directed to the appropriate threads, ie review, off topic, hints and tips threads. I only say this to help the information be found by all users. Thanks for your patients while this issue is being resolved.
Hi guys,
after a long time of absence i'm finally going to come back to the HTC folks. Has anyone seen good preorder deals in Germany? If i look to idealo (the standard german comparison site), i only see way too expensive deals starting from 666 €.
If i look to clove i'd have to pay 610 € for the preorder deal (incl. shipment - 32GB version)
Idealo has the 64gb version for 780 €.. Way too expensive if you ask me.
So.. I'd like to have the 64GB version.
Any comments welcome..
cheers
EDIT: This site is giving an overview for preordering deals at providers.. I don't see any information about the 64GB version yet. I could be the 32GB version on friday in Hamburg for 600 €, but unfortunately i'm not at home until next week.

But you are forced to make a contract later in the buying process.
The Media Markt deal seems to be good. I already have good headphones and i'm not eager to go through the stress with selling them on ebay. Although there's no 64GB variant available anywhere.

Hi all,
I'm currently live in Berlin. But as far as i know, tomorrow is just a pre-sale. Not the official sell start.
you can visit the vodafone forum. Sorry I can't post link yet.
BTW, yesterday I went to O2 shop, the sales rep told me I can order the contracted phone and cancel the contract after the 1st month.
Hope to get mine ASAP. Can't wait any more. LOL

9,99€ only? the sales rep shows me something like 1€ +25€ +10€ for the first month......I didn't quite catch her. But she said the Pre-ordered customers will get the devices on the 8th or 9th March.
Personally, I won't buy it at O2. If not at Vodafone in Berlin, I'll wait for Mediamarkt or Saturn. Hope at that time the shops will have some special offer or voucher to give.
I guess you can also make use of the german "Widerruf"-law and only cancel the contract and keep the phone.

if you are planning to order and are confident that they are of excellent quality then go a head man.
is this anyhow allowed on xda ? Although i would suggest you to wait for sometime and go for a genuine version because these cases are not gonna live longer.

Grab one off of Ebay or something, don't settle for the gold, the Blue Coral is actually very very good looking in real life.
The one I bought here in Pakistan had French branding, so I'm sure it'll be launched in Europe.
Also, the box had the sticker on it saying 'European SIM card only', so I'm sure the device will be launched there.

Only the American variants have the S7 edge branding on the back, this one says Duos since it's the Dual SIM one.

I'm not sure if there is a G935F single SIM one since the shop I went to only had 935FD Duos models. I agree the Duos texts really ruins the look of the phone, it's even worse on my Black Onyx S7e.
As for the shoes, I'm quite surprised that whoever I showed this picture to also noticed my shoes 😂
Then again, considering the coral blue that I bought had a European ROM on it, I'm sure a single SIM variant will exist and be available somewhere.

There was a modification you could do that would require you to peel off the gold part of your SIM card and glue it on to a microSD card and use them both at the same time, but:
1) There were reports of SIM trays getting jammed.
2) It could damage your SIM card.
3) Samsung might have disabled it with a software update.
The second slot is a hybrid slot, you can either use it as a second SIM card slot or an SD card slot but not both.
Pre-ordered Black Ultra for me. Don't know if it is Dual SIM version. The customer support said to me it supports one nano SIM and e-SIM. Can anyone confirm?
Since the screen supports 120hz but only at 1080p due to battery drainage. Do you think through root etc that they will be able to support the 1440p like the 60hz?

Earlier today I pre-ordered an S20 Ultra and I was wondering about the same thing. What needs to be done to get the 120Hz on full resolution - Is it just a software limitation?

According to a user on whirlpool that spent an hour talking to samsung support. Yes and no to your question. If you purchased through any carrier (optus, voda, telstra etc) there is NO dual sim of any kind, even though the phone supports it, it has been disabled.
However if you bought outright through jb hifi etc or samsung directly then yes, dual sim is available.
Hopefully its just a matter of flashing a non carrier firmware over the phone to enable dual sim like some other brands but time will tell.
Gott the email from Samsung stating the delivery date shown wrong (5 March 2020) and it is now 26 March 2020. Anyone else got this email?

March 26th?! I sure hope that's not the case in the US when pre orders start next Friday. Release date supposed to be March 6th.
Yeah, my pre-order confirmation said 26th....
Wonder why it changed to 3 weeks later. Not looking good...
I thought it was maybe because I ordered the 512, or I was a bit late and missed the first run?

Yes they have copied the official specs. Like i said, its internally there just not enabled due to being a carrier phone. This is not the first time they have done this. Optus, telatra, vodafone all will only have single sim activatible according to samsung level 3 techs themselves

Cancelled my order from Samsung. Found that Westpac employees get 20% off all the S20 series. Going to get help from one of my mate who works in Westpac. I could save $450. But Westpac orders doesn't come with Bud+. It comes with Wireless Power bank.
Anyone here upgrading from S10+ to any S20 series?
I ordered via Very (UK) S20 Ultra 512GB.
Still showing delivery on or before 10th March. (last checked 17th Feb)

Yes,
upgrading from S10+ 512GB to S20 Ultra 512GB
I've ordered the 512gb version and it's arriving on the 26th. It said rust at time of order. The 512 version was always delayed in Australia, something to do with stock of those beasts.
Anyone planning to root your new Galaxy S20 Ultra?
I am searching for reliable procedure on how to root. I am not sure if esim still works after rooting.
