Hi guys
On GSMarena, the Nubia z11 has LTE Band 20 listed in the specs. When I want to buy the phone however, most websites do not list band 20. There seems to be an international version and a normal version.
Can somebody confirm this? Or is there no difference between the versions and can I just go for the cheapest reseller.
Additionally, is there anybody who has spotted the coffee gold version in the wild? I can't find any real-life pictures so I am really hesitant to buy it since I don't want to end up with a phone that is basically pink.
Yes there's an international version with band 20, and other for china I think without band 20.
After some research I can confirm your claim. There is indeed an international version with band 20. The colours of the international version however, seem to be limited to silver and grey so no coffee gold or black gold.

Thanks Mate but I already ordered and have it here in use ! The initial cost was ~600 € but I ordered it when eBay had this voucher from paypal to get 15% discount which saved almost 100 bucks so it was ok for me. And i defenitely wanted the Black/Gold version.
I really hope Nubia gets this Phone out in more countries and sells more units so the public interest in having ROMs is bigger and something happens here
I don't how the update policies and behavior od NUBIA but I guess it is rather bad as for my experience with chinese manufacturers (except HUAWEI as a positive example).
Looking on the highend hardware this phone has...it still is a tiny bit laggy on some occasions...but this is moaning on a high level

FYI for this thread: I just looked it up on the Tech Specs from nubia.com where it say: FDD LTE B1/3/5/7/8/20 .
@paomaz: I have Telekom SIM and they use B20 with 800Mhz in Cities. So yes to your question.
Maybe a stupid question but, since there is an international version, do you guys think it would be possible to flash the radio etc. from the international version on the versions without band 20 support?
I have a China version of Nubia Z11 white/grey. Unfortunatelly i did not know that Nubia has a chinese version. In nubia.com, you can see only 2 versions of nubia Z11 which are USA and Europe/Asia. Unfortunatelly Chinese version doesn't support band 20. It supports band 3 which is common in Turkey. But sometimes we need band 20, especially far from city centers.
Hello,
How can I see if my phone can work with the 800 MHz in band 20?

As i know there isn't a particular way to learn this. You can screenshot your "about phone scrren" and send it to [email protected] ask them what your phone version is. (USA / Europe or china) China version doesn't support band 20 like mine. You can test it yourself with LTE Discovery app. This app needs root acces to read the LTE band type. If you never see band 20 there, probably your phone doesn't support it. By the way, my phone doesn't support band 20 and it's 4G signal is much way weaker then the other phones. I get 1 bar 4G signal but Samsung gets 5 bars for example.
Nubia is really weak on LTE signal.
I have a euro version, i buy this phone in italy LTE 800 (b20) working ! Chinese version dosent have b20

I alos have this one and the rom was terrible (from China) installed the ComboRom MM ver 3.0 from Pesa1234, now it works like a charm, only no sound on music player etc. Seems he has a solution for that as well, I am just not clever enough to know how to do it.
Hi there,
As a Samsung China fan, I know a lot about chinese version Samsung phones ; however I live in France so I also know a lot about the most common version of Samsung phones which are the international variants.
So, let's talk about chinese version Note10+ which has some pretty cool features that we can find nowhere else (btw I will get one in december when I go back to China so this thread is only about specs)
In China, Samsung only provides Note10+ 5G version, the model number is SM-N9760 which is a snapdragon variant. You may think that it is just the same as US version Note10+ 5G with a different software, but it is not exactly the case :
First thing is 9760 is the only Note10+ 5G in the world with dual sim card support. Second is that since Galaxy S10 series, Samsung flagships sold in China are the only in the world that support L1+L5 dualband GPS and 9760 is no exception.
In the box, Samsung provides a transparent case and a 6-month screen replacement reduction (only usable in china)
On software side, 9760 is also different from international version as the CSC it runs (CHC) has many features you may want to use even elsewhere than in China ; let me talk about the new additionnal features on 9760 (I will make another post about the CHC software improvements later) :
Bixby gets a new function exclusive to China that is Bixby Touch (but I have to test it to know if it only works in Chinese or if it is available in other languages) : you just have to long press on any screen to get shortcuts to related apps or services : for example, if someone send you a message with an address, a long press will let you open the maps app directly from there without having to copy/paste or doing any other action.
Samsung Pay gets a new smart door card function, which can let user access their building with just their smartphone.
Of course, it has all the other features from CHC rom that I'll detail on a later post.
And for those who want to know about the occidental services that are also supported, I also have the answer :
Google Play services are preinstalled ; by default, they're not activated but to get Google apps, you just need to download a play store apk and it will work just fine.
Instagram mode works : I tried it on a smaller version Note 10 in China, you just have to install Instagram and clear camera data and it will work just as on international version.
You get your local Galaxy Store because the phone region is defined by your sim card.
However, some features won't work or not completely : for example, Samsung Health will only sync if you have a chinese samsung account and you won't be able to compete with people using non-chinese Samsung Health app
I do NOT know if Samsung Pay works with non chinese cards but I will try it when I get 9760.
You cannot get the "Secure Wifi" feature as well as international version of smart call.
Finally there is no ROM you can flash because 9760 is actually a Chinese-exclusive variant (but that may change if Taiwan gets 5G model)
Personnally I think Chinese Note10+ 5G is the best variant you can find ;
Snapdragon 855, L1+L5 dual-band GPS, Dual-SIM, some cool exclusive features and the ability to use all the features we already use and love... for a cheaper price tag as it is sold in China cheaper than 4G variants in Europe...
Hello, also from France and currently in China I have bought the sm-n9760 in a Samsung shop in Shanghai. So I'm able to answer/confirm some infos there.
First, yes it comes with Google services pre installed, under a VPN I transfered through smart switch my data's and so on (containing my needed VPN apk) on this phone and then added through settings Samsung and Google accounts (while connected to my VPN). Google chrome and calendar couldn't be transfered by smart switch and play store wasn't installed. Downloaded play store apk with Firefox. All worked fine and then I used the play store to install chrome and agenda, all syncing and working without flaw.
Yes it is 5g dual SIM and less expensive than other variants at least the the European ones (paid 7999 RMB = 1040 euros and got a free jbl Bluetooth speaker sold normally at 800 RMB = 104 €)
It has bixby touch as said and it works in your language set in your settings. French for me then.
It does come with a well made silicone case and a factory applied plastic screen protector.
I can also confirm for the 6 month screen replacement and the whole warranty is valid in mainland China only. So if you have any problem not concerning the screen make it repaired in your country and for the screen ship to China. (Advice from the Samsung employee in the shop).
There is a setting about the smart building function but haven't tried it out. Also the Samsung employee told me that Samsung pay will only work with Chinese card. Considering that they use a different card system (not Visa or MasterCard but union pay which exists only in China) I assume it is true.
I don't use Instagram so no info on that.
I have been able to uninstall every Chinese pre installed apps just like I uninstall any app without problem.
No info on Samsung health for now. I'm still in China and don't compete with others. Back in France in a week so more infos later.
I'll give a look for the GPS on the spec sheet on Samsung website for this maybe.
Their 5g version support band that is intended for the French market (3500 MHz). But well no real deployed 5g in France before 2022. For now 350 antennas deployed in France by all operators (including 300 by one only) whereas in China, China mobile alone have deployed 200 000 and is just starting it's network. Also China mobile offered me 100 GB on 5g just to try. Thanks to them as I just paid a 100 RMB (13 €) prepaid sim card for 2 months.
I also have an "hongbao accelerator" as setting option but haven't gave a look yet.
If you have any question don't hesitate I'll do my best to answer.

My Chinese friend told me that Galaxy store was previously banned and that she had to download apk straight from various sites and therefore got quite a lot of viruses and ****. After that she bought Apple for long and now she hesitate to buy Huawei to support the national brand. However now the Galaxy store 8s no longer banned but it seems way more empty than appgallery of Huawei (had a Chinese honor phone before).
It may not be the only reason but it is the one I've been given.

So Samsung is basically killed by China government. China only allow local developers' apps available in phone. If no China developers create apps for galaxy store, no one will buy Samsung phone.
Exactly same thing happened to Huawei now when US banned Huawei from using Google play.

Hey, thanks for the answer
Just wondering, does it have the native radio app ?
Too bad Samsung Pay doesn't work (but I will still get a try ), fortunately Google Pay is still available
The dual band GPS is not mentioned in the spec sheet but if I remember it was mentioned in S10 Chinese unpacked
Apart from the Hongbao accelerator you also have many features such as fingerprint lock and some exclusive apps like the Samsung assistant that basically replace every app you use in your daily life
I hope the 5G deployment won't be too slow in France but even if not I will be happy with chinese version as even without 5G, it brings a lot more for cheaper price.

I don't think so, Galaxy Store was already available when Samsung had a quite respectable market share in China. The store has every popular app Chinese users usually install ; the main problems for Samsung in China is Note 7, Huawei and aggressive competition from Chinese companies...

There are three main reasons for Samsung poor market share in China :
First is Note 7, even today, when people talk about Samsung, people instantly think about explosion
Second is an agressive competition from Chinese brands : they deliver lots of innovative products for a very low price... It's almost always the same, Snapdragon 855, triple camera setup with IMX586 and Samsung Amoled display packed into a metal frame and glass back with gradient color, at the lowest price possible and with the fastest charge possible.
The thing is Samsung never plays with specs sheets, but Chinese customers care most about high numbers ; when they see Note10+ has "only" a 12MP camera, they will think it's worse than a budget phone having a 32MP camera...
And remember foreign compagnies have to pay more taxes for their products so Samsung phones are a lot more expensive than chinese phones, even though they are cheaper than the rest of the world
The last thing is Samsung has a bad image because of Note7 and because of Huawei... Huawei has very good public relations with Chinese government, so when they have a bad buzz it is almost always eliminated from weibo in the shortest time, whereas when Samsung has a bad buzz such as Galaxy Fold issues or fingerprint scanner issues, it will immediatly become #1 in trends, and it is almost sure that's because of Huawei.
So those are the reasons why Samsung has only 1% market share in China, hope that this will change in the coming years but I doubt this will happen

Hey, sorry for late answer, with plane and all I've been quite busy lately.
I attach the photo of the embedded radio app (name in Chinese), hope it'll answer your question.
For Samsung pay I can't try it out anyway because my (French) bank isn't compatible yet.
I didn't find out what is hongbao accelerator used to.
China mobile gave me free 5g to try it out, I had it sometimes but the throughputs weren't as expected (see below).View attachment 4859993

Easier way, go to China and buy it there.
You can also buy it from various websites I suppose like eBay or whatever (based in what I read) but I don't know if sim lock is still existing and in this case be sure that it is sim unlocked.

Anyway, from what I know RCS is mobile operator dependant so it may be linked to them. (It's a supposition). I haven't tried out because I don't think signal support RCS.

2G GSM B2/B3/B5/B8,
3G WCDMA B1/B2/B4/B5/B8, TD-SCDMA B34/B39

I can also confirm for the 6 month screen replacement and the whole warranty is valid in mainland China only. So if you have any problem not concerning the screen make it repaired in your country and for the screen ship to China. (Advice from the Samsung employee in the shop).
There is a setting about the smart building function but haven't tried it out. Also the Samsung employee told me that Samsung pay will only work with Chinese card. Considering that they use a different card system (not Visa or MasterCard but union pay which exists only in China) I assume it is true.
I don't use Instagram so no info on that.
I have been able to uninstall every Chinese pre installed apps just like I uninstall any app without problem.
No info on Samsung health for now. I'm still in China and don't compete with others. Back in France in a week so more infos later.
I'll give a look for the GPS on the spec sheet on Samsung website for this maybe.
Their 5g version support band that is intended for the French market (3500 MHz). But well no real deployed 5g in France before 2022. For now 350 antennas deployed in France by all operators (including 300 by one only) whereas in China, China mobile alone have deployed 200 000 and is just starting it's network. Also China mobile offered me 100 GB on 5g just to try. Thanks to them as I just paid a 100 RMB (13 €) prepaid sim card for 2 months.
I also have an "hongbao accelerator" as setting option but haven't gave a look yet.
If you have any question don't hesitate I'll do my best to answer.

Hi I have one more clarification, i am planing to buy this phone..Is this SM-N9760 version working dual sim with SD card at a same time via SIM adapter.
Recently Samsung block this feature on all international version, if phone detect dual sim plus SD card then you cannot enter to phone..Screen will be locked...So i am wonder in Chinese version its working or not.
Also please clarify VOLTE and Wifi calling outside china..? or it restrict only only to China...
Thanks in advance.
Hi everyone,
Just received my note 8 pro, ordered on xiaomi france offcial website. I looked at the note 8 pro megathread briefly and some others too.
I haven't even turned my phone on, but i got something on my mind : apparently, there's an indian and a global version. the china or eu versions, even malaysian, are all global versions customized for these locations, but fully compatibles. All these versions have model numbers like "M1906G7*".
What i don't understand, is about the model number MZB8511EU, wich seems to be exclusively for the blue model with 6G + 128G. I found a website listing all variants but it was'nt listed there. When i google this model number, i can only find commercial websites selling this model, always blue with 6 + 128G, and labeled as "EU version". Even on xda, no post is mentionning this model number.
I'm asking cause on the bill xiaomi france gave me on the website, before i received the phone, the model number was MZB8511EU (i ordered the blue one with 6 + 128g), but i received a M1906G7G. I was happy that i'd receive the EU model cause xiaomi france says on it's website it has B7/B20/B28 LTE bands (seems they're french only bands), but i was also scared as no post on xda even contains the model number MZB8511EU, i was afraid i'd get a model no one here has, thus getting higher risks doing wrong things and bricking my phone...
Finally it seems the model i received support B7/B20/B28 bands also, even thought informations about LTE bands on note 8 pro seem inconsistants and differ from a website to another... So i have no complaints about what i received, but it's still itching me not to know about that "EU model" MZB8511EU, which seem unkown here on xda...
Sorry for my poor english grammar, i haven't practiced since some long years now, and many thanks if you read this far...

is it good that the CN sets comes with GMS?
Yeah i'm thinking to buy one. But stil don't know which one. Chinese with global rom or Global at ZTE Shop.
Chinese with global rom is cheaper at Giztop, but there is a chance to get extra customs.
1. This phone is Chinese Edition, comes with Global version software installed(international ROM), includes Google Play Service.
2. This phone supports multi-language: English, Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Arabic, Russian and more.
3. This phone supports these network bands:
4G: FDD: B1/2/3/4/5/7/8/12/17/18/19/20/26/28; TDD: B34/38/39/40/41.
5G: n1/n3/n28/n41/n78
so no one has one? Mine supposed to arrive today
Chinese version with global rom comes with problems... I find it's MUCH slower to update (have to almost force it to) and can be a mother to root.
Older google apps abound and it doesn't want to update these, manually installing newer APK's seems to fail more times than not.
There can be bloatware that is (almost) impossible to uninstall.
Theme stores might not work without a Chinese number and you are stuck with some apps being only in Chinese with no English, or any other language, options.
Chinese phone might be a little cheaper but the Global variant will mean less headaches...
I have the Chinese Axon 20 and themes are especially a pain, the Theme store is geared for the Chinese and I find them all very cartoony, Forget about changing fonts as it uses theme store bought ones and again, not English. They ALL cost too. (Have to use Chinese currency)..
Forget about reading the changelog of a new Firmware, if you get updates, t took a few months with me checking and getting a "can't connect with server" error" before it finally updated, still a month or 2 behind in security patches though, though that may be normal.
All in all I wish I'd spent the few extra $$ on a Global variant but it wasn't available in my area at the time so got the Chinese one instead cos I'm an impatient little bugger.
Updating is a pain as you need to navigate Chinese only sites to find the firmware if you want to root or anything, a lot of these sites are hard to get things from, even with a VPN, and depending on the suppliers means of adding the Google apps, may not allow upgrading. This means having the stock firmware handy is nigh impossible if you have problems and is easier to end up with a brick...
Hope this helps you make up your mind.
To sum up, what you get is about all you can expect to work with (spent hour pulling my hair out trying to root a Chinese Axon 7 and ended up loosing all phone functionality), as long as you're happy to use without root, too much theme customisation problems with stock Android and hard to ignore apps you just can't get rid of. It may be worthwhile but in my opinion, get the Global version instead.
Got the Global Axon 30, much better experience and again, cost may only be up to $100 more but peace of mind is priceless...

I bought global. Not sure why anyone would buy cn version
Again, the phone bought Chinese version was the Axon 20, and it wasn't available in my region, not even through international postage and It was also unintentional (Seller had "Global ROM' in BIG letters but CN model in itty bitty letters).
The Axon 30 I got a true Global variant from ZTE direct, came with a screen protector and ZTE iMore buds. Funnily enough though the screen protector supplied by ZTE, the official tempered glass protector, had the camera cutout which I thought was an odd choice seeing as how the phone's most advertised selling point is the under display camera. That was a boner-headed move on their part but the phone is pretty good.
Got mine today. Pretty good. Do wish I could crank up the color though. The setting for color is limited.

So from what I am seeing the G version is the USA/NA version and the one that is just A2322 is the China version. (was looking at a device for sale-had some Chinese characters in the settings and no "G"-OS version was slightly ahead or higher at 11.0.16)

I'm going for the Global model, but i want the 12GB/256GB model and it is still not avalible at the ZTE Global store.
I read that the phone doesn't have dual speakers. Is there a way to enable the ear speaker and use that for second speaker?
Hello @All!
I would like to buy an Honor Magic 4 Pro, but in the large 12/512GB version. This is available, for example, at TradingShenzhen.
But now there is suddenly the following sentence: INFO! NO GOOGLE PLAY STORE POSSIBLE
As firmware is specified: Multi - GE, EN, FR, ES, ...
According to this, it is a European ROM. If I buy in Germany at Amazon the leine 8/256 GB version, then Google Play Store is also included. It can not be that the use of Google Play Store is dependent on the size of the RAM.
TradingShenzhen wrote me on request that it is not possible to flash another ROM on Honor. That would be very strange though. In principle, you can flash another ROM (e.g. European version) when the bootloader is "unlocked". A few years ago I've bought the Huawei Mate 9 in the bigger chinese version. I I flashed the European ROM and that was it! Everthing worked without any issues.
I find all this somehow strange and would be grateful if someone here could please enlighten me.
Another question in this context: I noticed that the European versions of Chinese smartphones only in smaller memory variants. The Chinese devices have up to twice as much memory as the European ones. What is the reason?
Where can I buy an Honor Magic 4 Pro 12/512GB, where also the Google Apps work?
Somewhere I have now also read that the Chinese version has no GSM? Does this mean that SMS is no longer possible?
Thanks a lot!
Best,

At China, phone version is AN10 no GSM/google service ; but you could buy an asian international version NX9 at Hong Kong.
