mine was made in korea, not because of that, but i think the devices there are gsm, unlocked. could be wrong though, normally gsm off contract are sim unlocked. that said, yes it would work fine in europe, maybe just convert to yakju (google release, europe radios).

While I don't live in Korea, I went through the Korean Google Nexus page which brought me to SK Telecom's landing page for the phone which they are selling for 590,000 WON.

Which is ~411 Euros, about what you'd pay just buying it in Italy lol.

Hi,
Does anyone know if Hong Kong has launched the Galaxy Nexus? I am going to Hong Kong next Friday, where can I buy the Galaxy Nexus and accessories or the Korean version of Galaxy Nexus In Hong Kong?
Thank you in advance
Yes it has launched in hong Kong! My nexus was imported from there
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Which website did you order it from? Do you know where in Hong Kong I can get my hands on it hehe
I actually got it from a reseller here in the states that got it from hong Kong. I'm not sure which specific place you can buy it but I'm sure you can find s store if you look online. Might have to sift through some Chinese websites
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
I'd imagine all the usual suspects will have them:
Wilson and Citylink specialize in mobile devices.
Fortress, Broadway and Suning sell all sorts of electronics
All phones in Hong Kong are required by law to be unlocked unless you are on contract. Of course, The GN is factory unlocked...
All that i named are chain stores - so you can feel safe buying from them. Price will vary though due to the nature of buying things in HK
It has been available since 15 Dec
Go to get it from some chain store would be better than those small shops, especially tourist area. They usually charge way higher than the suggested price.
The chain store would be selling at suggested price - hkd 5398 if my memory is good.
Screen protector is usually given as a free gift, and the staffs should help you applying it.
All GN selling in HK should yakjuzs-build.

I bought my Galaxy Nexus in HK a week ago
The price is 5398 HKD in Broadway and Fortress
But you can find it cheaper in Mongkok Computer center or Golden Arcade (around 4800-4900 HKD); just keep in mind that they prefer cash there; credit card transactions are usually 3%+ to the price
btw, buying in Broadway gets you some freebies - I got screen protector and extra battery with a charger
What Skeve said
I got my GNexus for $4900 HKD
Does the version of nexus galaxy purchased from hong kong work with US tmobile 3G and 4G Network? Does all gsm version has 1700 MHz?
Thanks
I'm heading to Bangkok with a short layover in Seoul in a couple weeks. I've done research about maybe getting the Korean version.....but it looks like they're contract only. I wanted the extra larger battery.
I'll probably end up buying it in Thailand. I think I can get it for about $590 US (19,900 baht less 7% VAT). No contract, unlocked.

Yes sir, using it on mobilicity right now, which has the same band as tmo.
I recommend getting it from wai shen (衛訊), broadway or fortress.

isn't there a chinese language/system language by default in settings?
I don't think you can flash to a different ROM without rooting as if I remember; cooked ROM's are pre-rooted
but you should be able to change firmwares through fastboot flashing; thought I'm unsure about that
bumpin' this up for an expert to step in

hi. i just bought a GN from wai shen (衛訊), but the invoice didn't have WCDMA 1700. it only has 850/900/1900/2100. that means i can't use tmo's 3G??
Hi,
This really driving me crazy, i spent hours trying to find this outside ebay, because basicly i can't use Paypal, since im banned.
Do you guys know if there's any shop that sell the GSM version of this?
thanks
I looked everywhere to see if anyone had them here in the US but no luck. It seems like eBay is your only choice

Some providers in the UK have already started deliveries (Carphone Warehouse, Three...), the UK thread is full of people who have received theirs already.
Stores in Germany (Amazon) indicate availability on 1st July
Rest of Europe should come later 3rd-4th probably.

I will be in Hong Kong from September 10 to 24 with a 3 night layover in Taiwan. I have been looking for the price of the device in Taiwan but I have not been able to find it. I called a shop in Hong Kong who told me their version is Snapdragon not Exynos.
Question:
The CDN version has the $200 off trade in phone promo. Obviously in Asia there is no promo for that, however there is really no tax in Asia.
Anyone know the price of the device in Taiwan? Is it worth paying a premium ($200 ish more) for an Exynos model? Anyone know where I can buy it when I'm in Taiwan; I can't find web stores from Taiwan providing information re: this.
If I buy in Asia, can I get warranty servicing from Samsung in Canada?
Thanks!

Definately worth the extra cash for a bootloader unlocked exynos device.
I dont think sammy Canada will warranty service a non Canadian device though or even if they can as the hardware is slightly different.

If you've got something in writing from Samsung (which this website certainly is) that will trump whatever any sales rep says.

The international warranty is only mentioned in the South Korea website. The Canadian website has no mention of it.
I guess make sure to check what kind of warranty is offered in the country of purchase because there may be differences.

I just realized that the link I provided says "Samsung Mobile Computer" not mobile phone. I think we should check the fine print before purchasing abroad, if that's important. If I call Samsung Canada's warranty servicing and get an answer I will post it.
Here is my conversation with SS online:
C: Hypothetically, if I purchased a Samsung phone abroad, and there is a problem with it, can I submit the repair to Samsung Canada?
SS: Thank you for waiting. I'll be with you in just a moment.
SS: No, if you have purchased the phone abroad and would like to get it repaired in different country, you need to contact local service technicians. Samsung will not repair the phones purchased that are purchased in different countries.
