Any differences? I know the quad processor was a big difference on the note 1. I think thats been taken care of. How about the home button? Are they soft on the international version?
No differences buddy. It will be released to all 5 major networks here in the US by mid-November. With LTE (except T-Mobile, HSPA+) and with a Quad Core.

Appears the N7105 will be international and support European LTE bands, which is different from USA. Appears the N7100 will support LTE bands (ATT etc) in U.S., but not totally confirmed. Just pointing out, still a question. if you just wait to get from ATT, as an example, previous post is totally correct, no differences at this point.

Well I hope the international bands are the same for LTE, Cause I wanna plan on buying the international one, Upgrading my N7000. The reason why is cause By the time I pay for TAXES to pay retail at AT&T It would be about $50 dollars cheaper to buy the international one
Wonder if the international one will have more support?

Traditionally the international units tend to get software updates sooner.
Does anyone know if the exynos will have SVDO support like the us versions of the gs3?
At least the sprint version will have cdma, GSM, and LTE.
No details so far about the Verizon model.

if it supports GSM when it's a CDMA phone then it is a world phone...... reading the info from the link it's a world phone without a doubt. unless they have the wrong info posted.

Support for GSM is just a part of it. It need to be able to use multiple frequency bands(which it does) normally it it's tri/quad band it's ok, But also it need to have a SIM slot which you can replace SIM card from carrier outside the US then you can call that a world phone.

It's because the chipset has been different. In this case, Note 2 will have the same Exynos for all models. It means compatibility across the board is a possibility.

All of the Major US carriers have already leaked pics of their Note II's.
They are all the same no difference at all.

No way to tell for now. Most likely when they become available and they are out in the public can we compare model numbers. Or if HTC details this on sunday.
I would put my money on it being the same as before. GSM variant with only difference being specific frequency bands enabled on carrier models and two separate CDMA models for Sprint/Verizon.
It would be a great idea to have a universal GSM/CDMA model like the iPhone and Nexus 6, but yea i doubt it.
I think Multiple

I think there is going to be multiple models as the US companies take into consideration the user preferences.
The beauty of HTC in Europe - one model for all networks (but different software builds for each carrier)

I hope that's not the case this time. If the unlocked version of the M9 doesn't support T-Mobile (the unlocked M8 was AT&T only) I'm going to pass on this and maybe get a Z3. I don't want a phone loaded down with T-Mobile's crap and have to wait for T-Mobile to push updates out.
It looks like there will be 2 separate versions for AT&T and T-Mobile:
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2477484,00.asp
The AT&T version covers the T-Mobile LTE bands, and will probably be sold as the unlocked version as well. I'm assuming it won't cover T-Mobile's AWS 1700, just like the unlocked M8.

Grr.. Man these carriers are the worst thing. I was hoping the unlocked model will have all the bands but looks like it will just be the AT&T model minus logo and AT&T bloat like last year. Hopefully that's not the case but highly unlikely.

Hey, I plan to buy my Galaxy so from Samsung rather than my carrier (ATT). I have a couple questions. Will I just be able to add the Sim currently in my Galaxy say or will I need a new one? Also, will I have to take it into the store?
Just put your existing soon card in and away you go. No need for anything else. It's what I did when I got my Note 8 from Samsung.
If you buy it from Samsung, the phone it's unlocked, so you can use any valid SIM (including the one you are currently using now).
Samsung has an unlocked model available on their website along with carrier specific models. I would think the carrier specific models are the same as the phones you would get at a AT&T or Verizon store. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I'd like to know this as I would like an unlocked bootloader but.... I would like the Carrier version for some additional features like VoLTE/VoWifi.
Right now I'm torn between just going to Best Buy (since in the states) or just getting it directly from Samsung.
The carrier versions will have the standard carrier bloat pre-installed.
I can't find the exact band specifications of each of the models... Does anyone know if the hardware/antenna chips will be the same on T-Mobile vs. unlocked from Samsung? I am assuming there are certain bands missing from the unlocked version if you plan on using T-mobile's network, but I can't confirm this....
Best Buy's doing a $100 off if you preorder on Friday just heads up.

It looks like the answer to our question is on this page: https://www.techwalls.com/samsung-galaxy-s9-sm-g960-g965-model-number-differences/
The T-Mobile version seems to be missing the following, in comparison to the unlocked US version:
4G FDD LTE B71 (600 mhz) - This is T-Mobile's new spectrum... this seems important to have (just google t-mobile 600mhz)
2G CDMA and 3G CDMA - I don't believe this matters to us
3G TD-SCDMA B34 and B39 (2010 and 1880mhz) - I assume these will be missed if outside LTE coverage?
But in general, the unlocked version seems to support more bands than the Tmo version
So, it seems if one is on the T-Mobile network and plans to stay there, they really should get the T-Mobile version of the phone.... someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm with AT&T and I'm pretty sure there will be no wifi calling on any phone other than the AT&T version. That's a feature I want. If it doesn't matter to you an unlocked phone may be for you. I don't know for a fact that wifi calling won't work on an unlocked S9 but if it does, it will be the first. I don't want the extra carrier apps but they aren't going to cause me any grief on a beast like this phone. I'd rather have the services the carrier provides if I'm going to use them. If It turns out that wifi calling works on the unlocked S9, I may revise my plan but I doubt that will happen. I'm pretty much done with the rooting/modding stuff so that isn't an issue. Even the master hackers are going with stock phones d/t the features and security.
Heya,
Anyone here achieved CA with a Verizon model in Europe?
While the bands are all supported, I have a feeling the US version of the phone has a hard time knowing which bands to aggregate in Europe. What are your experiences running the Verizon version on LTE-A?
I have a Google version (not international, not Verizon) and Verizon service. I was told by Verizon I would only get 3g speeds in Europe but that my wife's Verizon S7 would get 4g. Not sure if that helps you any, we have a European trip planned for later and I was asking Verizon rep, that's how I know. I was a little confused since my understanding was that the Pixel XL was able to get all the bands which is why I could take it to any carrier.

It should support B3, B7 and B20 which are used in Europe. As of that LTE will work as expected but the LTE-A band combinations differ and as of that CA may not trigger in europe (thats my theory.). I've been trying to modify some files to get a control over the band combinations, but I've only managed to enable 256QAM at the current moment.

256QAM is only supported on the Australian Telstra config.
/firmware/radio/modem_pr/mcfg/configs/mcfg_sw/generic/aus/telstra/volte/mcfg_sw.mbn used to replace other mcfg_sw.mbn's that you phone uses in the /firmware/radio/modem_pr/mcfg/configs/mcfg_sw/generic/ directory.
Hi, I have a question about telus 5G, anyone can connect telus 5G network? I don't even have 5G switch in setting.
thank you!
I have a OP9 and same issue. Data is also very slow but that could be a separate issue.
If it's available/provisioned to your SIM, I'd assume that setting your Preferred Network Type to the variant that includes 5G should allow it to be received.
I support some clients on Telus, but I'm not well versed in how they're rolling out 5G and/or what bands they're using, etc.

That's unfortunate. I swear I remember my OnePlus 8 Pro being 5G compatible though. I never saw it in the status bar but it was an option inside settings. Strange that the 9 is not seeing 5G anywhere.
Maybe someone will come out with some kind of mod or tool to force 5G.
Hola
Sad situation this is. Stranger still is that I had a Xiaomi Mi 10 last year and I was able to get 5G in certain locations. And at one point Telus was the least restrictive when it came to VoLTE and WiFi Calling enablement on non-Telus branded phones.
5G is not enabled in Telus 5G-network. Here is listed 5G supported devices: https://mt.ax/0x390
