Exynos - Where to buy - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Hello,
Can the Exynos version be purchased directly from Samsung? For example, can you use a VPN to change your region and then have it shipped to the US?

You are kidding, right? Why would anyone buy the Exynos when you have the Snapdragon?

Why would you buy a Exynos if you can have the superior Snapdragon?

Most people buy the Exynos because they are easier to root and as the international model there is more development. I have had the international models and the difference in processor is difficult for the average user to recognize..
The only concern with the 5G model is the compatibility of the cellular bands.

Every famous youtuber made video highlighting "difference" between snapdragon and exynos, yet very few can notice all the issues with most recent oneplus...

Btw i have s20+ exynos variant, and honestly nothing to complain about, fortnite, pubg works fine - battery with wifi and bluetooth on all day long lasts until 9 pm every day

Samsung Portal won't allow international shipments from one country to another.
Sometimes it will be easier to use a website that sell the variant you want and forgo the local warranty

Galaxy S9 (SM-G960F) Exynos vs Snapdragon

Just received mine today, I was worried about Samsung having limited its performance to be on par with the Snapdragon variant in US.
In Geekbench 4 I get 3620 single core and 8691 multi core.
Antutu score is 242,767
How about yours?
locked bootloader vs unlocked bootloader !!
I got 3729 single, and 8699 multi-core score. Pretty similar.
243.028 here
Edit: closed background apps, did a new test. 247.918 now
Exynos
I am actually annoyed with Samsung policy in Europe. The exynos processor is very bad in graphic performance vs the snapdragon 845 version.
Then I would like to buy the S9+ snapdragon version... how to find one with the SD 845 in Spain?
I would like to buy a S9+ Samsung but I need your help... I dont like the exynos version!

Even the S8 and Note 8 with SD835 have better graphics performance!

Oh god dont buy a snapdragon, total waste of money if you want proper root,twrp, roms etc. And since your here on XDA thats a given :thumbup:
It has a locked bootloader if you were not aware.

Thanks but I need better graphic performance for emulators
With the PS2 emulator (and external joypad clip of course) the sd845 double the fps that offer the exynos version... then I have not choice!
yes of course I have.... wait two years until the exynos versions could be faster than the sd845!

Exynos, 246374. Why do they have to introduce 2 models and not stick with 1 for their flagship phones?

Qualcomm has a lock on CDMA modem patents, which is to say that Samsung can't build a working CDMA modem into the Exynos AP. To make the Exynos variant CDMA compatible, they would have to use a separate Qualcomm-licensed modem, which would both increase the cost and space needed inside the phone. They did this for the Galaxy S6 because they accurately judged the SD810 was a flaming piece of garbage, but for any other year, when the Snapdragon performance is basically equal to the Exynos in daily use (yes, even when the E8890 S7s left the S820-powered versions in the dust), they aren't willing to pay more and engineer extra space in the phones for it.

I always thought it sucked that AT&T/TMo customers were stuck with the same SD version as Verizon and Sprint simply because of the CDMA patents. I don't see why AT&T and T-Mobile couldn't just get an Exynos version for the rest of the world, and have a separate version for Sprint/Verizon and and other countries that use CDMA (albeit there aren't that many ...).
Granted, I don't know the numbers or patent laws involved, but one would think at least the the straight GSM version would benefit from greater economies of scale. Then for CDMA, it could use either an SD processor or a Qualcomm modem. I mean, is it really that much cheaper to pay for a CDMA license in EVERY SD version sold in the US and Canada, regardless of the network it ends up on, vs keeping the CDMA version as a niche product for the carriers/countries that need it? Or does Qualcomm have a few WCDMA/LTE patents in the US and Canada that forces Samsung to use SDs?
It reminds me of paying the "Microsoft tax" for a new PC when you want to run Linux and never Windows.

Never buy pre-built PCs. They're so easy to put together.
can anyone confirm if both version got fm radio or not, because on s8 snapdragon fm radio can be enabled, but none for s8 exynos

I don't think the CDMA argument is valid for Canada even, as up until the S7, they used the Exynos variant. I imagine that Samsung Canada was pressured by the American arm to switch to Snapdragon as a show of conformity, and that Canadians simply got the short end of the stick (well not this year, since the E9810 is quickly turning out to appear much worse in efficiency than the SD variant according to PA and AnandTech) as they get the snapdragon variant simply because they're next to the US.
No call recording on Exynos version sounds like so SD for me

I live in the US but I just purchased the Exynos version because i saw reviews online showing the battery life was better than the SD845 version. WTH! I was going to take my SD version back because I cant get through a full workday on this phone without charging. Im a pretty heavy user but I could get a full day with my google pixel 2. I even saw reviews putting the S9 ahead of the pixel 2 and almost as close as the pixel 2 XL. This S9 is amazing in every way except the battery.

It's a S9 non Plus Exynos vs S9 Plus Snapdragon.

[Solved]Can i use Galaxy s9 HK (g9600) in europe?

I want to buy a Galaxy S9. Since there are some complains about the exynos version (battery life, performance, especially 3d performance in games) i want to get the Snapdragon version. Custom Roms etc. doens't matter for me. Is it possible to just order the Galaxy S9 g9600 Hong Kong Version and use it normaly here in germany? Does the region even matter?
>>UPDATE<<
tl;dr: Yes you can!
I'm also interested in getting an answer from somebody who has experienced with this.
After Googling around, I think you will have no problem using the phone. The only problem is that the ROM is full of bloat targeted to the Asian audience. What people do normally is they flash the Brazilian version, which uses the same hardware, and should be a very clean rom. I would feel more confident if somebody came and confirmed who I read around.
I bought the S9 online from Hong Kong (SM-G9600/DS) to use in Australia and it works well with full 4g (LTE) bands. I would assume that it would also work fine with European bands as well. I have not had any issues with the phone at all.
The only potential issue is that you wont be able to use VoLTE outside of Hong Kong. Personally this doesn't bother me.
I'd recommend importing the SM-G9600 form overseas.

I can confirm after buying a SM-G9600 online from Hong Kong, it has NO Asian Bloatware and overall a fairly clean rom. Most pre-installed apps are actually useful (such as Facebook or Twitter). The only difference that I have noticed over 4 weeks of having this phone is that in the shopping option of bixby vison (where you point the camera at an object and it comes up with a product you can buy) it shows Hong Kong results. And also the advertising in samsung pay is in Chinese.
None of this a problem that affects overall usability and is very minor. I would definitely recommend buying the SM-G9600 from Hong Kong.
Would it make sense to flash the Brazil ZTO ROM or is the Hong Kong ROM just fine?
Hows the battery life on the HK version? HK has the snapdragon variant i assume it has good battery?
Could Hk version S9/S9+ be root now? Does anyone know how to root Hk version S9/S9+?
Good day. I am thinking in getting a Snapdragon version (American or HK), and would love to know if it works in Europe too.
It seems that the battery life of the phone with Exynos is far worse
If this is the case and the phone is locked to Asia region, is there any way to unlock the phone without an Asia SIM card? Or do I have to send it back?
EDIT: The phone got shipped today and should arrive the end of this week or next week. I will make an update if the Galaxy S9 Dual Sim from Hong Kong is region locked or not
Update: The Galaxy S9 arrived today and everything works perfectly. I had no region sticker on the box and my german simcard works just fine. The only bloatware, that is preinstalled are some microsoft apps (word, excel, powerpoint, onedrive). Overall i am very happy that everything is working flawlessly.

Does the Hong Kong version support VoLTE or wifi calling? I bought a G9600/DS with the Latin America CSC (has OWO in the version number as opposed to TGY in the HK version) and it does not support either feature. Can you let us know please. I'm thinking of flashing with the TGY CSC if it supports VoLTE and Wifi calling.

HK version does support both VoLTE and VoWiFi but will that work in non-HK carrier in other countries I have doubts
I am also very curious about VoLTE in other countries. Let us know.

voLTE will only work in Hong Kong. If you root and use a custom ROM the CSC Code can be modified. This is only possible if your device's bootloader is unlocked. As the CSC Code is Region or Carrier Specific you'll need to match your new code to the location and/or carrier.

Amazon and Ebay both offer the Snapdragon variation. Ebay is usually less expensive.

FM RADIO there ???? USA / EU

So we know this year EU / US models have Exynos processor both ( except for Verizon variant ) .
Someone of you on USA VARIANT can tell us if you have FM Radio enabled ? Tis because us in EU that have same identical processor it seems miss FM Radio.
US always gets Snap Dragon processors. Note 10 and Plus both have Snap Dragon 855 in the US, regardless of carrier.

you are wrong.
This year only Verizon Note 10 / + will continue to have Snapdragon
Would you please share with me how you know that to be a fact? All articles that call out the chip in the US are Snapdragon. Samsung wouldn't put a Snapdragon in their phone just for one carrier in one country. It would cost too much. Here, let me start by sharing an article that was update 4 days ago.

Unfortunately, for you he made that claim before the Note 10/+ was "unpacked". He has since said he was wrong. Every reviewer in articles and Youtube that had their hands on a US version said it was a SD 855.

Huh? I literally said US are Snapdragon in my comment you quoted then shared an article to support that comment.
The chipset may support FM radio, but the FM radio requires wired headset/headphone jack to also function as the antennae. Since the note no longer has a headphone Jack what would be the point?
what? note10+ included usb-c headphone. i'm sure that can use as antenna also.

depends if there is room in the standard to recieve radio waves over a pin/wire in the cable. in a headset they generally just wired into a cable to recieve the radio signal. but I'm not sure if USB C would allow them to wire into the earth externally to work as an antenna, but seems most firms are just of the opinion people stream these days, in the UK most of the radio stations have made online streams to account for this.
not ideal if you are limited on data, but it seems that's what most manufacturers and people think these days, the networks just need to catch up on letting people stream more and actually have a fitting data allowance for the speeds of the likes of 5G. (UK networks are working on it with excluding certain services from data use or making unlimited services for reasonable prices)
sorry...

- I wasn't intending to respond to your comment - but rather was trying to offer supporting information to @wolfgart who was saying that only verizon was snapdragon - my apologies- sorry I caused confusion...
I have preordered Note 10+ 512GB 5G from Verizon, not received yet. I had a long texting session with Samsung about this in their app. They insisted there was no radio receiver, and that there was not one in my Note 8 either! After much discussion they agreed for the Note 8 that I had, it must have been an "undocumented" hardware feature. So... who knows!

Samsung S20 UK Exynos / Snapdragon

HI all,
The response to this will probably dictate where I purchase a new S20 from.
I've been using Apple for years, but wanted to move to Android for a while. I though the S20 looked like a safe bet to make that jump, however reading the reviews on-line - the UK Exynos version appears to suffer from bad performance, bad battery life and compatibility issues.
I've thought about getting the HK version from Wondamobile, but VoLTE and Samsung pay would not work. I wonder if I would be able to flash the phone with the UK firmware? If I could, would it trip KNOX?
I don't do any gaming, I just want a decent phone that's not an Apple. Is it worth the hassle for the Snapdragon or shall I just get the UK version of the phone and get on with my life?

Is impossible to use UK exynos firmware in a HK snapdragon version.
I have a HK snapdragon s9+ and is not possible, and it's true Samsungpay and others don't work. I was thinking the same but with this exynos bull**** a my previous experience I have decided to skip on s20 series and hope for the Note with better exynos chip or better optimize, or s21 [emoji1787]

I'm in Switzerland, wifi calling work, VoLTE just work after one year I still don't know why maybe swisscom fix it. Samsung Pay and others never worked.
For a 1200 gbp phone I think don't worth the headaches you might have.
Forget it. Buy exynos or wait. I will wait until August to see if Samsung manage to optimize camera and soc exynos, or for the Note.

S20 FE 256Gb Dual SIM Snapdragon

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...
