I'm going to buy a F800 cuz I found a really cheap one. The frequencies are supported which I need in germany, is there also the german language installed?

Hi im looking to purchase an s5 on ebay uk. Its brand new and factory unlocked LTE model. The model is imported from the US and i wanted to know what the differences were in comparison to a uk model. I know about the cpu difference but are there any others?
Thanks
Yes, don't buy the US S5 if you want to be able to fully use the 4G/LTE bands. The US version doesn't support the 800 MHz band which you want!
Hi,
I wish to buy the korean model of the LG G2 and i live in France,
the major operators use here 800 Mhz and 2600Mhz for their LTE networks,
i want to know if it's possible to use the 320K on that frequencies.
Best regards.
Thanks
Hey guys
So, as I live in switzerland and we most probably aren't getting the LGv20 officially I am starting to look around for alternatives. I've gone to frequencycheck.com and checked every modell of the phone on there, added them all to a spreadsheet and now have a list of possible models that would work in my country (assuming frequencycheck is accurate). The versions that would work 100% on my country and carrier are (with corresponding Country-of-release) next to them:
LG F800L V20 LTE-A | South Korea
LG US996 V20 LTE-A | USA
LG VS995 V20 XLTE | USA
LG H990 V20 TD-LTE / H990TR | International? (Didn't find out which country)
LG H990ds V20 Dual SIM TD-LTE | Taiwan
I now have 2 questions:1) Are there more models I should be aware of and check and 2) Which model would be the best one for me to get? I would like an unlocked bootloader and the possibility to root my phone. I don't have a country preference - Importing a phone will be a PITA anyway.
Thanks for your recomendations!
Hallo!
I am from Germany. I am thinkting about the different versions too. Here is the H990N Dual Hong Kong version specified with Cat6 only (max Download Speed 300 Mbps, max Upload Speed 50 Mbps):
https://www.techwalls.com/lg-v20-model-numbers-differences/
Snapdragon 800 should have always Cat12 (max Download Speed 600 Mbps, max Upload Speed: 150 Mbps). Not be sure why there seems to be differences with LTE speed.
The H990DS Dual Taiwan version is specified with Cat12.
But I am unsure if those versions are Bootloader unlockable: http://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/help/lg-v20-h990ds-dual-sim-taiwan-version-t3490585
Anyone imported the V20? I'm from Germany and do not know which model works without limitations, too.
Snapdragon 800 should have always Cat12

Do you think the H990N has an older/slower CPU?!
I'm from Greece and I own H990DS TAIWAN version...this is for sure international version with all languages and 4g bands....it working perfect...but we didn't know if it going to be bootloader unlocked ever....
Be careful because there is another H990DS version from Korea that isn't international....
US996 has all the bands switzerland uses:

And it can be bootloader unlocked.
@mgutt
I know you from German forums.
Sorry for this late answer but I have read your comment not until now incidentally. Of course every V20 device has the Snapdragon 820 inside. I mistyped 820 and 800 because of my old Note 3 with Snapdragon 800. But now I have my new V20 with Snapdragon 820 and I habe to unthink.
Hi Man, I'm from Switzerland too and I just bought one from Digitec.ch they have it in stock ready to ship and it's the international version H990DS Taiwan, actually i got mine it was in chinese it took me 5 mins to figure out how to change language lol...

I'm assuming the us996 is the model you want. But of course wait for someone else to confirm. Check the bands of the carrier you'll be using it on, and then check the bands used on the us996. I know the us996 is unlocked and can be used on any carrier here in the US.
There isn't a UK variant, but everything I'm seeing points to the H990DS, which is the Taiwanese variant, which works with:
Networks: GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA, HSUPA, HSPA+, TD-LTE, LTE, LTE-A
LTE Cat12 700/800/850/900/1700/1800/1900/2100/2600 (Bands 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,12,20,28)
TD-LTE 1900/2300/2500/2600 (Bands 38,39,40,41)
Hope that helps.
