I'm getting the S20 Snapdragon version specifically in Cloud White and am given the option to choose between the Korean and US variant. I am aware that the Korean Cloud White model offers 12GB RAM, but is it the same with the US Cloud White?
Done some checking online and read that the Cloud White in the US is only exclusive to the UW version which offers only 8GB RAM. So I was wondering if US Cloud White model with 12GB RAM is genuine.
Thanks

The Cloud White SM-G981N from South Korea has 12GB RAM. The Taiwan S20 Plus and Ultra variants are also offered in Cloud White with 12GB and 16GB RAM respectively, all Snapdragon variants. Personally I wouldn't purchase a device that's shipped from a different country. I feel the Hong Kong devices are a better choice however they don't offer anything in Cloud White. Unless you're going to run lots of background apps it's doubtful you'll realize much difference between 8GB and 12GB RAM. If you want full Call Feature functionality your best option is aquire your Service Provider's device. Verizon has mmWave which is the fastest 5G available but only with their UW model and their coverage area is very limited.

T-Mobile USA user. My Exynos 930F S7 killed by water, reverted back to my 930T S7. The 930T rooted with engineering kernel leaves a LOT to be desired compared to the unlocked bootloader 930F. Debating finding another 930F or going the S9. S7 will be WAY cheaper, and I like the smaller form factor, but an S9 with 256GB internal is pretty attractive. The 256GB version Samsung sells on their website is Snapdragon, so no-go for me without unlocked bootloader. I've read that there are 256GB Exynos versions, but haven't seen anywhere to purchase one. Any thoughts?
I have my heart set on a Note 10+/512GB/Dual Sim with Aura Glow color but it's not available in the US market.
I'm seeing a few international sites selling this exact configuration. Does anyone know if they're legit?
You won't find dual sim models built/sold specifically for the US market, so you might have to source them internationally. GL!

Yes. AFAIK eBay (via never-msrp and a couple other sellers) and Wonda Mobile have both the N975F/DS (Exynos) and the N9750/DS (HK/LA/Brazil Snapdragon) in the exact color and storage config you want. I'm also planning on getting this phone (the Snapdragon Dual Sim version) for use in the US.
the UK 4G version is dual sim direct from samsung, as soon as you go up to 5G it goes single sim. guessing they aren't yet capable of running dual 5G modems or the price is too high.
@sansnil, exactly the variant that you are looking for. It does exist - https://youtu.be/Brhjl8InyN8
I'm on Verizon in the US, but if there's an international unlocked model (or even a US unlocked model) that doesn't have 5g (and is therefore $200 cheaper or something) then obviously I'd rather get that. Does it exist?
Yes. My region on Malaysia, only the s20 Ultra is 5G. S20+ and s20 is 4g with 8gb ram 128gb storage. 1 esim 1 nanosim slot and 1 dedicated sdcard slot.

Whatever the model is, I assume it's just the "international unlocked s20+ 4g"? Is it available to US consumers?
Yes, there are two versions Galaxy S20+ 4g version and Galaxy S20+ 5g version.
In Germany you can select between all S20 models if you want a 4G or 5G variant.
I think International S20 and S20+ model have the lowest spec that Samsung offer because it only came with Exynos 990 and 8GB of Ram and 4G network instead of Snapdragon 865 12GB of ram. Obviously it will be cheaper because of the cost. However the spec is good enough to last you another 4 years.

You asked regarding international models. It definitely is not available to American consumers because.. Americans is offered American variants.
You can try to purchase one on the internet that is willing to ship it to you though.
Honestly I will advise against it though. The americans have their own variants for a very good reason and you won't have warranty on the event the phone misbehave. I personally won't buy something this expensive without warranty.

Hi all
I’m trying to find out if this model really exists. I have seen there is a B model that’s dual SIM but this F/DS version turned up in the TECHWALLS page (https://www.techwalls.com/samsung-galaxy-s20-ultra-5g-model-number-sm-g988-differences/).
But I can’t seem to confirm if it really exists, or if Occasionally sellers just make a mistake and put F instead of B from time to time.
If someone has it can you take a picture of the side of the box (Jose the IMEIs)? Better still confirm which cellular bands such device has.
Thanks

That's the s20 ultra offered for sale in my country or region.
I dont have a photo since mine is s20+, the sm-g985f/ds.

This European site shows the model for sale. https://www.mobileshop.eu/samsung/m...l-sim-128gb-12gb-ram-sm-g988f-ds-cosmic-grey/
SM-G988F/DS (Dual-SIM Unlocked) = SM-G988BZADXSP (Cosmic Gray – 128GB Storage) = SM-G988BZKDXSP (Cosmic Black – 128GB Storage)
The processor is an Exynos 990 and the frequencies are for Asia (India/Singapore) which is very close to the US and this is why I was searching for one.
Here is a site that lists the different models: https://www.techwalls.com/samsung-galaxy-s20-ultra-5g-model-number-sm-g988-differences
Hi good people,
Anybody knows when the Sorta Sunny will be available in 256GB of storage in Europe?
It seems the only colour available is black, orange and white have only the 128GB option.
Now I am already pissed Google is not releasing the 512GB in Europe but only in the US, but I cannot buy a 128GB storage variant for 900 Eur cmon.
In Europe at least the P6P 256GB is only in black, its the standard which comes in others or will
yeah but there was a guy on reddit saying that he asked google support and they said it will be available in other colours but didn t give an ETA, I was wondering if someone had more info...otherwise I ll wait for an S22 or Mi12Ultra, I dont really like a black phone
