Where can I purchase the the SM910C? I can't find any reputable seller. The "C" (Exynos) is suppose to be compatible with virtually every network (and US LTE Bands to some extent); similar to the "F" (Snapdragon)
Mine is is the N910C variant, i am based in Malaysia
The C variant is sold in South East Asia i think

C-version can purchase in Russia (after 23.10 ~850-900$, but i don't know seller from us).. U-version (the same except modem) - in Korea
Dubai
Well this is the model that is sold in Dubai, UAE. Just got mine yesterday.
which shop in dubai has the note 4
You can pre-order C, U and F in Poland (but stores aren't sure yet which version they will have and the price is higher than in other countries).
Can people give us some links please
The C Variant is all I'll really need now, haha. I wonder what the sales figure is now for the Note 4 in general.

@AndreiLux,
Hi, I live in Ecuador and the networks here are Claro and Movistar. I think the 910C is the version I need but not 100%. I am visiting the States in 2 weeks and want to bring back the new phone with me, so I need to get this purchased right away so it can be shipped on time. Do you know what the difference is between the 910C and 910U? If you develop for one, will it be compatible with the other? I will be happy to contribute to your fundraiser campaign to make sure it gets funded.
I am *only* interested in this phone with a custom rom, I don't want all the extra Samsung apps. I want pure Android. So it's very important to me to make sure I buy the right phone that is going to be modded by the community.
I'm having some trouble finding someone that will ship it to the States quickly enough for a reasonable price.
Thank you.

I'm not getting the 560 € price, I'm seeing 710€ on both links 2999 polish zloty is 710 € according to google.
And how reliable is ordering in poland or russia? Does anybody have experience with that?

Depends on your VAT. Anyway one of those shops got good reviews from outside purchasers and they apparently speak English and German if you send them a mail.
I would avoid Russia if possible.

Keep in mind, that some models have a REGION-lock: you must first make a call in the region the phone is locked of a minimum of 5 minutes, before SIM-cards of other regions are accepted!

Thanks I contacted them. I also contacted the redcoon one, I used the dutch branch once and got positive experiences with it. If anyone wants to know I'll comment when they reply.
Can't you simply flash a ROM (as long as the modem is the same) from a different region (other than the EU) and unlock the region-lock?

I contacted Morele and this is what they said about international shipping:
Hello,
thank you for your ineterst in our offer. Unfortuately, we realize foreign shipping only on Europen Union territory, so we don't able to make order like this for you.

Ah I thought you were from the EU. Well then best guess is a importer which gets South American units or a Middle Eastern retailer like one of those UAE shops.
Hi all!
I have a friend, who lives in Hong Kong and would be able to easily buy and get the phone back to me (his sister is an air stewardess) so yay for me. The 64gb option works out to be about £410-420 taking into account currency rates, which is a massive saving!
Problem is:
1) I can't check the Hong Kong version of the Google store so I can't check the availability but my friend says it's not there yet. Does anyone know when they usually stock it? I've tried using Hola extension to see if I could emulate an Hong Kong I.P address but didn't get anywhere with that.
2) Will be any band issues etc if I was to use the phone here with a sim-only contract here in the UK? How would after-sales work?
Thanks for any help!
2. HK should be the international version and fine for the UK. Zero aftersales unless you return it via the route you got it.
I'm visiting Hong Kong today and tomorrow. Can you buy the international version In any shops or is it only the Play store?
so the OG roms google released are only for one model. Since they have two Nexus 6p does the same OEM roms work on both models?
i.e. these:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en#angler
The best way is to ask your friend to order one sim free in the UK and send it to HK. So that you can enjoy the VAT free but to pay £20 something for delivery. Then send it back to UK for you. You will also have the local customer service in the UK.
However, I think those UK sim free vendor with international delivery does not have stock at this moment.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Just checked with VPN,
It is not released in the HK play store yet.....

Hmm yes that is an option but then I'll have to deal with getting the tax back etc. I think I'll risk it with getting one from HK as it'll be a bit more straight forward. There doesn't seem to be any quality control issues does there?! Hopefuly I'll get a good one and won't ever need to worry about returning it etc..

Am I right in thinking you're talking about some ROM and not the fact the HK version will be different/difficult for me to use in the UK?
No, I'm saying the HK should be the international version with UK bands fully supported. The US version only supports some of the UK LTE bands.
HK version support below freq (6P) - it lists

UK is still in the EU, for now. And since it's sold by Amazon they ship to every country inside the EU. Too bad that is most likely going to change for UK after the separation. I always prefer to buy from DE because it's cheaper most of the time. And now they even translated the German site officially in English so it's easier to work with.
The thread title says it all. Rather curious how I can get my hands on the Chinese version. I'm an American living in States, but those prices are ridiculously lower. The handset itself is supposed to be identical. Anyone know how I can order one?

I have bought foreign phones before and have always found ways to enable/disable bands as needed.. The Snapdragon is very versatile. I'm hoping that installing the international oxygen OS rom will configure the bands. When I get the device I will thoroughly test every band and let you know how I get on.

Haha your post cracks me up, mate. Did you ever get the band unlocked? I'm torn between waiting four more days until it's available in the US, or getting it off of Wonda.
Perhaps you can help me decide. When the phone arrived, did it look brand-spanking-new? Or were there fingerprints all over it? After all, they had to manually flash the international version of OOS I'm assuming? and did it come in original packaging? Or do they just take the components out and just stick it in a random box?

Careful the Chinese version is missing a few of the bands we use here. Think o2 is fine but the rest need band 32 I think for lte advance so you may get slower 4g speeds if on Three voda ee or their mvno's.
Maybe you can unlock bands. Wonda mobile a great trustworthy store

Haha your post cracks me up, mate. Did you ever get the band unlocked? I'm torn between waiting four more days until it's available in the US, or getting it off of Wonda.
Perhaps you can help me decide. When the phone arrived, did it look brand-spanking-new? Or were there fingerprints all over it? After all, they had to manually flash the international version of OOS I'm assuming? and did it come in original packaging? Or do they just take the components out and just stick it in a random box?

The seal on the box was broken to upgrade the firmware but the device was still wrapped in its protective film. I'm currently on band 20 VoLTE and the device is identifying itself as the international version. I suspect the relevant bands were enabled/disabled with the ROM change.

Wonda mobile.
Question for those using chinese version in USA.
How is it working?
I want the green 256GB version and dual Sim. So going down this route might be my best option.
Only problem I see is if I have a screen issue, will be harder to return.
What do you guys think? Thanks for the replies.
I have used Wonda Mobile and returned a mobile with no issues, you pay for shipping if you change your mind with a fee but if it's faulty they will reimburse you.
I have ordered many times from Wonda Mobile, can't rate them high enough. My 8 Pro was shipped on Monday and I had it by Saturday, 12/256gb £100 cheaper......:good:
