Hi,
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge that was advertised for sale with the UK's SM-G935FZDABTU model number.
During the initial set-up of the phone I was invited to logon to my Samsung account, which I did.
When I later visited the Samsung website, I found the phone I had been sold had the model number SM-G935FEDAATO instead of the standard UK one.
I've been unable to find the specifications of the phone I have other than the fact that it is available in several European countries, particularly - if Google search results are anything to go by - in Austria.
I got the phone for a good price and want to keep it if I can. On the other hand, I would like to know what comprises I'll be making if I do so.
Can anyone give me an idea of what the differences between the UK and EU versions of the S7 Edge are likely to be?
Thanks for reading this

There shouldnt be any differences between all eu models. Mine is bought in Germany and is running UK BTU firmware. If it runs exynos proc. Then its eu model because snapdragon is for usa only as im aware.

I bought an S7 edge but the s7 edge is not printed on the back, do all have it printed?
Most reviews I've seen have it, just wondering.
Mine only has the Samsung name printed, but no model printed, it does have however the small imprints of imei, actually 2 imei's due to the fact is a duos, designed by Samsung and made in Vietnam etc.
Howdi... I also don't have this... Voda UK model...
So you're not on your own
I have all printed bought in India

Mine also not printed - From South Africa - SM-G935F
And did you know, if you got a red phone, they go faster.
The international version (exynos) doesn't have it. This has been like this since the first Galaxy phone, US models had the "Galaxy S blabla" on the back but international versions not. It's not that they forgot printing it.
I like it without so no problem for me.

Yeah, what he said. Apparently International versions only come branded with the Samsung logo.
Hi,
I'm interested in buying a A3 (2017) phone.
The model sold in my country (France and rest of Europe) is the a320f, however I may go to Canada next year and I want a device compatible with LTE bands from Europe and Canada. The model a320y sold in Asia and Australia is the same as a320f, except it supports a few more bands (not less), including the ones I need for Canada.
Did one of you manage to buy a different model from a shop? Do you think some shops will be able to ask Samsung to send them a different model? Otherwise, did one of you succeed in importing from other region, for not too expensive, and where did you buy it? I would like to think of importing as a last solution since there will be double tax + shipping costs…
Thanks in advance,
Galaxy A320Y 2017 dual sim
Dear Yurien
This model would be availiable in Chicago USA by the end of February, I am waiting for it as well. Here is the address for you welectronics.com
Good luck to you

Unfortunately, this website only ships within the USA.
Plus, 400 USD + shipping + border taxes is high, considering it costs 330€ in France
Is there any place to buy the A320Y? When I contacted them, welectronics said they are selling the A320F. Only markets I have come across selling A320Y so far are Chile, Mexico, Indonesia, Thailand and New Zealand. I haven't found a source to get one in the US though. I really wanted this phone for its size but if I am not able to get the A320Y I may just go for the S7 after the S8 is released.
*Also don´t forget that sometimes the Data Bands change depending in the carrier!*
A320YD
Hi to All,
I too am trying to get the famous A320Y model. It is obviously better, not only in Canada but in France too because one of the major operators, Free, is developing the LTE 4G band 28(700) which is not on the A320F models.
I contacted Samsung in France and they simply said that only the A320F is available in France and that it would not be possible to get the A320Y.
I have seen some A320Y models on sale in NZ but not in Australia. They seem to be available in Vietnam but I don't speak Vietnamese and I suspect it would be difficult to buy them without some knowledge.
The 320Y I saw on NZ sites was not the dual sim model that I want.
Any more information on this would be most welcome.
Thanks in advance!
Samsung Exynos 8890 Models (from wikipedia):
>SM-G935F (International Single Sim, Malaysia)
>SM-G935FD (International Dual Sim, Malaysia)
>SM-G935W8 (Canada)
>SM-G935S (South Korea SK Telecom)
>SM-G935K (South Korea KT)
>SM-G935L (South Korea LG U+)
(I'm going to assume that this is the complete list of all S7 Edge models with the Exynos octa-core, please let comment if you know of any other models)
The SM-G935F and SM-G935FD models appear to be the most common ones that I see in the rooting threads. If someone could elaborate the differences between the models listed above it would be greatly appreciated.
I live the the U.S. and I would like to get a hold of the best "Titanium Silver" S7 Edge that can be fully rooted. I eliminated all the ones with the Snapdragon 820 processor already since they have locked boot-loaders. I am not very savvy with Amazon and Ebay; After looking at some of the reviews on Amazon I'm worried that I will end up with a broken or fake S7 Edge, it seems that there are a lot of legit ones that have display issues and are sold as new devices. Iv'e also noticed that some models have "Galaxy S7 Edge" printed on the back of the phone while the rest do not, if possible I would like a version without that. There is also this rare 64gb that I'm curious about.
If you have an Exynos S7 Edge, where exactly did you purchase it from and how well does it work in the U.S.?
How do you make sure you are getting a legit new phone and not a scam?
What is the best model for rooting, custom roms, etc.
The F and FD are basically the same thing except the FD is dual sim.

Model number on the back is Snapdragon version.
You should be very careful about frequencies. Check the ones for your provider because you can easily end up with phone that can get only 3g. Check the frequencies for international model(935F) and compare with your provider.
That's the most important thing to do. The rest is a matter of personal preferences.
Hello guys,
I want to buy Galaxy S10+ in UAE for use in India.
Can someone please tell me what features will I get more or less in the device purchased in UAE compared to the one purchased in India?
I will purchase it directly from a retailer, so there won't be any contract with any service provider.
Regards,
Babloo

Each model of the S10 has only 3 variants
U = North American snapdragon
F = Exynos
SD = Chinese snapdragon
Both india and UAE have the Exynos variant, which they are identical, same bands, same layouts, same everything.
As pointed, you will need to flash the indian firmware for any samsung app to work properly, but it is not a complicated process nor does it trigger warranty / knox / etc
Ok. When I got my S8 from UAE I went to Europe for a trip and had to format the phone there with a European simcard... I didnt flash anything and all Samsung worked as if its purchased from Europe. I mean places in the contacts app. The European theme store which supported purchased items and by that time it was only free stuff available in UAE store. Samsung pay worked etc
Are u guys sure he has to flash India software?
Hi,
at the moment I have an s10+ exynos+cam by Samsung.
A friend of mine can send me an australian version, but I need some info.
The australian s10+ is exynos or snapdragon, samsung or sony cam? Are they updated like the other? Is there any iussue to use it in another country with a non australian sim?
Do you know any problem about this version?
I'm very undecided.
Thanks
