I've been looking on website for the past days trying to find a ZenFone 2 (ZE551ML) when I look at the specifications it says it has a Intel Atom Quad Core Z3560 (1.8 GHz) processor not been able to find the (2.3 GHz) processor anywhere is this a mistake the websites have made?
Does anyone know where to purchase the (2.3 GHz) variant in the UK or dealers who ship to the UK? Also is the 32G device sold with 2.3Ghz
If so is there a real difference between the 2.3Ghz and the 1.8Ghz ??
try darty.com i can see they sell in france, not sure if they are shipping to uk, or do they have stores in UK.
The 2.3 is only in the 64GB version.

Ah I see then I'm guessing most people got them missed up, I was watching many reviews and they said 32GB with the 2.3Ghz, Couple Amazon reviews said they got 32GB with 2.3Ghz

That depends on where it is from. For example, there are both 64 and 32 GB versions with the 2.3 GHz cpu here in Japan.
As for the OP's question regarding whether there is a real difference, I believe the gpu, cpu architecture and base clock of the 3560 and 3580 are identical. The difference is just in the Max boost frequency under load. I doubt there is much notable difference in everyday use - a bit faster for heavy tasks, at the expense of a bit heavier battery drain?

My phone is from ASUS.fr and is 32gb , 4gb ram and 2.3ghz and WW of course.
I am posting this in hopes that it will help others to pick the right model for them. If any of the info is incorrect, let me know. I put this together based on my extensive research prior to purchasing the version I have. Asus really screwed up on this phone with the various confusing versions and even the name of the phone being Zenphone 2.
For example, I have the TW based version and its 2.3ghz with 4 gigs of ram and 32 gig storage.
(ZE551ML) 2.3 ghz with either 32gig or 64 gig and 4 gb of Ram (Intel® Atom™ Quad Core Z3580, PowerVR G6430) - with a 1080 HD IPS Display (403ppi)
(ZE551ML) 1.8 ghz with 32gig and 2 or 4 gb ram (Intel® Atom™ Quad Core Z3560, PowerVR G6430) - 1080 HD IPS Display (403ppi)
(ZE550ML) 1.8 ghz with 16gig and 2 gb ram (Intel® Atom™ Quad Core Z3560, PowerVR G6430) - 1080 HD IPS Display (267ppi)
NOTE that the 2.3 ghz version is the only one compatible with Quick Charge capabilities. The 18W BoostMaster adapter is included with 2.3GHz/4GB ZenFone 2 model only.. Asus states that the phone will quick charge to 60% in no more than 39 minutes.
Here are the different versions available on the market (that I know of)
TW = Taiwan
WW = World Wide
CN/IN = China and India
US = USA
JP = I have not been able to find much info on this as the JP (Japan) version is just starting to show up
These are the LTE Bands from the ASUS website to help make sure you get the correct one for your area/carrier:
4G :
FDD-LTE: (TW)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/900MHz(8)/700MHz(28)
FDD-LTE: (WW)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/2600MHz(7)/900MHz(8)/800MHz(20)
FDD-LTE: (US)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/2600MHz(7)/900MHz(8)/700MHz(17)/800MHz(20)
FDD-LTE: (CN/IN)
2100MHz(1)/1800MHz(3)
TDD-LTE: (CN/IN)
2600MHz(38)/1900MHz(39)/1900MHz(40)/1900MHz(41)
Also I have confirmed that the phone can take a 128gb micro SD card even though it says 64gig MicroSD on the Asus web site. I took the 128gig MicroSD card out of my Note 4 and tried it in the Zenphone 2 and it worked perfect!

Don't think that's right, as according to the spec sheet on the Asus site even the ZE550ML (720p with 1.8 GHz processor) supports fast charging with boost master adapter (not included)

I know for a fact that the 1.8 ghz 4 gb of ram ZE551ML version does not support fast charging as I had that unit and had to sell it because of that reason alone. I am not sure about the ZE550ML, can someone that has that unit confirm so I can update my post?
Thanks
If you are in the UK, then you can purchase from the European Amazon sites.
Italian amazon appears to be the cheapest, they have the 32gb 2.3ghz 4gb ram version for EUR345, which comes out under £250 with shipping.
Also, this is sold directly by amazon, so if you have issues you are covered by amazon returns policy.
I bought the phone from there, and it turned up the next day.
Unfortunately it had a fault (see my thread for details) so had to get a replacement. But that was simple enough with the aid of google translate.
If i had imported from China i would not have been happy!
Hopefully my fault was a one off, and the replacement will be a good as i would expect from the specs.
I got mine from eBay but got the 1.8 4Gb ram 32gb version ordered mine on Tuesday 12th may and came 2day

Thanks, looking around I found a couple other cheaper dealers.
NA release tomorrow
Price$199 for Z3560/16GB, $299 for Z3580/64GB
Comes to about £190 seems reasonable

I hate to make a thread just for a simple question but I can't find the answer anywhere. Someone please please tell me why on Amazon there is a oneplus 5t called US version for over 600 dollars and it's 499 on the oneplus website? Are there different versions of the oneplus 5t?? I want to buy this phone off the website for 499 but I'm worried it won't work in United States. Really appreciate any comments, thank you
Both are the same... Make sure it is the 6 gb ram or 8 gb.. maybe that's why the price is different..

The ram is the same, 6gb on Amazon is over 600 dollars, 6gb on oneplus website Is 499. Thank you for replying! If they are the same, I will gladly buy the 499 one on the oneplus website. Will it work ok in USA right?
Get it from oneplus.. it's the same model (A5010) and cheaper than amazon..

Buy it from OnePlus website. OnePlus 5T is global device. There is no US or China or any other country version.
Buy from the OnePlus site. Just don't pay with your credit card.

Operating system is the same which is Android. Device is Global so you can use it anywhere around the world without having it re-flashed to different region software every time you travel (at least thats what oneplus claimed) Chinese version of Android has its own stuff but it still Android.
So to confirm I can purchase OP5T from Amazon.in (India) not Amazon.com and still use it in USA and also use all facilities available through my carrier like Volte, LTE+, HD calling, VoWifi of course given the fact that my sim and carrier supports it. Moreover there is no information about the bands supported by OP5T on Amazon.com. So if someone can shed some light on this it would be really appreciated.
Thank you
Does anybody have this model? (M1803E7SH)
On Xiaomis Taiwan site (and some other places) the M1803e7SH is listed as having a 12 MP (f/1.9, 1.4µm) camera.
B&H and Amazon.com are selling the same model, but they both list the camera as being a 12MP f2.2, 1.25µm camera.
Did anybody buy this from B&H or Amazon.com? If so, what is the correct spec?

Taiwan version and China version have different bands.
Taiwan version has TDD-LTE B38/B40, FDD-LTE B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8/B20/B28
China version has TDD-LTE B34/B38/39/40/41, FDD-LTE B1/3/5/7/8
They both have same f/1.9 rear camera. Maybe Amazon listed the wrong specs?

I'm hoping they listed it wrong.. I'll find out next week..
I received it from amazon.com and can confirm that it has the f1.9 camera.
Is the Pro Max only available in India?
I cannot find this version of the phone for sale ANYWHERE. What gives? I live in Bangkok. Lots of Redmi Note 9 Pro available here, but no Pro Max.
Considering the phone was released sometime around the end of March, I really do not understand the lack of availability. Anyone know where I can pick one up?

You completely missed my point, which is that I cannot find it listed for sale ANYWHERE, as in worldwide.
I see reviews of it, talk about "flash sales" (whatever those are), but no where can I find a listing of the phone with a BUY button available. Even AliExpress and Lazada have no listings.
Does the phone even exist in the real world, or is this just really really bad marketing by Xiaomi?
No. They decided to change it. They realized how too bang for a buck the phone was. It had an 8GB RAM Variant and front cam of 32MP on top of it's 64+8+5+2 rear camera, 5020mah, 30W Rapid Charging. It was overlapping their new Mi Lite series. "The Redmi Note 9 Pro Max" is an exclusive in India but rebranded and nerfed in the Global Market as the "Redmi Note 9 Pro". Sporting the same specs but removed the 8GB Variant and reduced all front cams of all variants to 16MP. Also the "Redmi Note 9 Pro" in India which has a 48MP Rear Quad Camera is rebranded as the "Redmi Note 9S" in the Global Market with the exact same specs.
we have 6/64Gb and 8/128gb version here in indonesia but branded as redmi note 9 pro,, came with 64mp and 30watt ,,
The Redmi Note 9 Pro (Global edition or otherwise) does NOT have the same specs as the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max.
I have the note 9 pro, 6 gig 128 gigabits, 32 pix front and 64 pix back. Is this the same as the max?

I'm in a non-5G country and only the LTE version will be available here. I am told there is a 256Gb dual SIM version that will be here later this month but which will therefore be Exynos. For obvious reasons I would prefer Snapdragon and I would be happy to import from somewhere else but, as far as I can see, there is no such thing as a Snapdragon with 256Gb and dual nano-SIM. Am I wrong? Does a Snapdragon 256Gb dual SIM exist?
1. 5g 128gb - snapdragon
2. 4g 128gb- exynos
3. 4g 256gb- exynos
From what I can see on Amazon, at least in Europe, the Exynos ones are dual sim.
Why do you want the snapdragon considering there is so little community development on it?

Because it is the same Exynos 990 as in the S20 range that has compared badly with the Snapdragon eg in battery life. If I have to, I will go with Exynos because it's not that bad - just not as good as Snapdragon.
I know what you mean. But hopefully the increased battery and the 1080p only display will make it less worse.
I was definitely looking at buying the snapdragon but then found out you can barely root it and it was an easy decision afterwards. I cannot live anymore without call recording, adaway and yt vanced.

Samsung wants to milk the customers in big countries and makes the SD with 256GB only available in certain markets it seems.
SM-G781BZBHEUB -> BeNeLux, + "Nordic" EU?
SM-G781BZBHEUE -> CZ, "Eastern EU"?
Still waiting for availability though...
