They are both the same! If you are worried about the build quality, then you cant tell the diffrence! I have 3 note2's in my family. 2 are made in vietnam and one in korea. In the arab countries like saudi arabia or dubai they just try to pull out a little bit of more money from your pocket saying korean made is better. Dont fall for it! Hope I helped!

I am from an Arab country (Qatar) and that should never happen, call quality control services and report them, don't buy from random shops.

Do not trust any "cheap" electronics that come out of Asia! Electronics are actually cheaper in America than else where.

I watched many movies on youtube but, i can"t find nothing helpfull. I have only 2 days for make my decision. Please can you paste a link to this movie ?
Thx
I have created an application that will detect if the device is a fake S III or not.
Take a look at the application:

I would not buy the device if it is from anywhere outside of the USA. Unless I live in that country... just my opinion.
You can usually tell if its fake by taking the back cover off

Look at the battery

Also if you just go to a T-Mobile (or any carrier) store before hand and look at a real one, it should be fairly obvious if it's some Chinese knock-off.

[Q] Are all SGH-T889 made in China?

I just wanted to confirm that all Galaxy Note II sold by T-Mobile in the United States are Made In China. Am I correct?
I don't know for sure but I have purchased 3x note 2 and they are all made in China... Even the battery is assembled in China! I know china has cheap labor fees but I wish it was made in Korea (cause I'm Korean! Lol). All my international Samsung phones were made in Korea I don't know why US version isn't ;(

No! There are a few t889 that are made in korea!

Thanks for your feedback. I bought a Titanium Grey from a T-Mobile store in New York City, and it is made in China. I'm sure it doesn't matter, but there is a thread here somewhere where they said the models coming from Korea were a bit better in finishing and free of defects.
Mine functions well........but I just had to confirm (that thing on the back of my mind). Definately the best phone I have ever owned.

What!!!!! Where are they being sold? I have been to about a dozen T-Mobile store in NY/NJ and all are made in China.
Mine is T889v and it is made in Korea..

yup my T889v is made in korea, don't know if that matters, but yay to wind/mobilicity/videotron anyways
Just remember if yours was manufactured in china then odds are you've already inhaled enough noxious fumes to cause permanent brain damage
As long as no one has reported any defects or quality issues with the china made ones, who cares?

Just exchanged mine...faulty power button and S-Pen. The new one is much better. There are defective units out there, for certain.

[q] unlocking galaxy note ii

Hey guys, i've been offered a Galaxy Note II for just 450 USD ( 25,000 INR or 345 EUROS). And the reason it is selling for this cheap is because its locked to Sprint Operator,and apparently the owner is a 'Total NOOB' , and doesn't know what to do with it since we are both here in Africa (Ghana). What i wanna ask is that, is there a SURE way to get this bad boy running unlocked without too much hassle? So i can just snap it up! Its still very new and in its box. Thanks for your replies... :laugh:
It's cdma, not gsm. No good for Africa friend.

Do you think unlocking the note 2 will allow it to work in Brazil?
I`m in Victoria BC and I want to buy a galaxy note 2. I only found locked phones to sell... They are selling in Brazil the N7100, maybe if I buy it here and unlock it will work in Brazil, what you guys think about it?
Root your phone ) i did it like this when i ordered a G1 (htc dream) back in the days and couldnt use it here in belgium.. rooted the phone and it worked out

Hey Angie,
Have had my F240S for about a month. I am in Ireland. Wonderful phone. You will probably have the dual clock on the lock screen but there is a fix on that on here and I would recommend rooting the phone.
Enjoy it!
Patrick
Thanks Patrick, nice to know there's someone else out there. I've looked at the rooting method, I'll enjoy it for a couple of days and then have a go. I've been told there are a few Korean apps that will be useless to me so it would seem an inevitable thing to do. So used to using odin and Sammobile to do updates for my current phone that I think it's going to be a bit of a learning curve.

Yeah i use a korean version
Simply root it using the simple method listed at Optimus forums then use titanium backup to remove the korean apps you don't want
