I'm looking into getting the n5100 from Asia to use as a Phablet on the Telus network (850/1900) in Canada.
I've been looking online to confirm whether the phone is a true quad band that would work.
On the Samsung UK site (only place I found spec on the 3G version), it says it's depends on regions. And there aren't much resources online listing whether the N5100 has specific models that are quad band vs others that are not.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Where are you getting yours, if Hong Kong only LTE version n5120 unless you bought gray market N5100 which is import from somewhere else.
I just received my N5120 LTE and use it on rogers. LTE working fine I think it only work on the 2600mhz the other band is for Europe and Asia area, so you have to check with telus if they have the 2600. I also test 3g and it work without any problem but same issue, it is tri band 3g, and only 850mhz the other band is for other area.
For n5100 form Taiwan Samsung website, is said it support 3g quad band 850/900/1900/2100mhz just like my Tab 7.7, so I guess you will not have any problem using it on Telus.
They are releasing an att version soon. It will work for you
N5100 from India is also quad band (3g+wifi )

I need help, i want to buy a zenfone 2 from alegrecompra, but i dont know if the version Z00AD support 3G wcdma, i live in latin america.
Does anyone has bought this version?
I made a similar question but nobody answered.
I understand that if your buying it from a Chinese based site you will get the CN version.
CN version definitely lacks many LTE bands support compared to TW or WW version, but apparently it supports the same WCDMA bands as the others, and, on top of that, it also supports TD-CDMA bands only useful in China, but never got any confitmation first hand, only real way to tell for sure would be if someone with that CN version confirms they get WCDMA coverage with a provider using the same bands as your company...
It would be wiser to get the TW version instead but its harder to find an online store selling it apart from eBay sellers and also it should be a bit more expensive I guess...

H+ 3G WCDMA 2100 on CN version working confirmed. Haven't tested the other bands, but if 2100 is working the other ones should be too.
Thanks! I think its safe to assume then that WCDMA support is same across all regional versions...
Work here in Mauritius but not on all operator. One operator it show the H but download is 2G

It works on 3G WCDMA, I just bought the CN version and it working on band 1900.
@OP
I suggest you buy the Zenfone 2 that you mentioned in your post. That is an America Version that can be used in Latin America as well.
IMHO, do not buy the China or Taiwan Variants as those were specifically for Asian Continent.
Good Luck.

The only Freq/band that the Z00AD (WW) doesn't support that the US version supports is 700 MHz/Band 17 -- there are some South/Central American providers that use that frequency, but not many.
Here's the breakdown of frequencies from the ASUS site:
2G :
EDGE/GPRS/GSM : (WW version)
850MHz/900MHz/1800MHz/1900MHz,
EDGE GPRS GSM: (TH version)
900MHz/1800MHz, Class
3G :
WCDMA: (WW version)
850MHz/900MHz/1900MHz/2100MHz
WCDMA: (TH version)
900MHz/2100MHz
TD-SCDMA: (CN/IN version Only)
1900 ~ 2100
4G :
FDD-LTE: (TW version)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/900MHz(8)/1800MHz(9)/800MHz(18)/850MHz(19)/700MHz(28)

What is the difference between the LG-H798 - HK Version and the LG-H791 version? Thank you.
Only difference I see is that the LG-H798 is a China, Hong Kong variant of the model and the LGH791 is various international variant model as the LG-H790 is USA, Mexico variant model of the LG Nexus 5X

HK (Hong Kong) version supports only a subset of global 3G and LTE bands:
3G: 1,2,5,8
TDD: 38,40,41
FDD: 1,3,7,8,26
It(H798) is all the networks working on follow:
CDMA:BC0
3G: WCDMA1,2,5,8; TDSCDMA 34,39
TDD: 38,39,40,41
FDD: 1,3,7,8,26
note,it support cdma.
Does the HK version support lte bands in use for AT&T?
Hello, I have a strange issue with my device SM-G9880. I could not get 5g to work on sim1. It works only on sim2 slot. The option is available on sim 1 but does not connect to 5g. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Kuwait, ooredoo. Im not sure if its relevant since it works on sim 2 already. But it is strange honestly.
Can confirm the same here with the sm-g9880 Hong Kong model. I have a Telstra Aussie Sim that supports band 78 5g. Will only work in second Sim tray. Very strange. I'm guessing this is some kind of bug?

It is a bug, and hopefully can be fixed by a software update

Just to let people know though. Once on the Hong Kong CSC , it doesn't support band 28 aggregation so won't do 4g plus . Another strange thing considering band 28 (700) works by itself.
Here are the bands support as confirmed by samsung Hong Kong

It supports band 28 (700) but it doesn't pair with other bands for 4g plus like it normally should. Specifically band 1 and band 3 - they normally both pair with band 700 but they haven't been on this firmware.
Any update my 5g not working I only have 4g+ I have sm-g9880 and I. Using ooredoo kuwait
Im having this issue after the last update I dont know what samsung have. But i discoverd a fix if you want 5G u have
To disable SIM 1 (Remove the sim or turn it off from the setting ) and use SIM 2 only then 5G will be back
were you able to get this to work? I want to order a G9860 Taiwan or hk model but won't if I can't use an sd card! Whatsapp and camera pics would rinse that internal storage straight away!
g9880 issue
hello there, i have china version g9880 but i want to flash euro firmware, like g988b firmware, can i flash it? will the phone be able to boot up?

Try changing CSC to 'TGY' or 'BRI'?
Hey there,
today I tried using 5g in Germany (vodafone) on my g9880 with tgy csc. It worked only in sim2. Does anyone know when it will probably be fixed or know some kind of workaround?
Thanks in advance !

so 5G on sim 1 was working before the update and they just broke it? I was just wondering if it ever worked on sim 1. If it did before,i guess there is hope they will fix it in the future.
Hi. Is this still an issue? I've just ordered a s20+ 5g (snapdragon).
