Is the 32GB LTE version on Amazon same as the one shipped direct from Nvidia?

Amazon has a "no contract" AT&T version but it really doesn't say "unlocked".

Bought mine 2 days ago from Amazon and it's 100% not branded. But i live in Germany and there's no AT&T here.

Thanks for the reply.
Is there anyone else on here from USA that can tell me the difference?

I don't believe nVidia have two SKU for the 32GB version. While amazon doesn't give any detail about the the LTE model, nVidia page specifically says, "Unlocked (compatible with AT&T, please check bands supported)". So it sound to me like even if it's unlocked, but because of the cell band it support, only AT&T will work in the US or even if other cell carrier would work, it wouldn't support most of the bands, so it will be spotty.

I am concerned mainly if additional at&t software is on the amazon one.

Just got my LTE tablet from Amazon today, at&t software comes installed

The North American LTE 32gb shield has at&t software and sim included but is technically unlocked for compatible carriers. The main other option for service is T-Mobile.

buying Galaxy S6 Int'l model

Hey,
I just need a bit of help. I am interested in buying Galaxy S6 International model. The reason is for quicker updates and what not. I live in Canada and my carrier is Windmobile which uses 3G - BAND 4 (AWS). I did read through forum, but still unsure. Can someone 100% confirm that Galaxy S6 G920I has 3G - Band 4 (AWS)? And does this G920I model support LTE Band 4, 17, 2, for Rogers and Bell in Canada?
Thank you!

I want to know too.

im interested in knowing the answer to this as well.
its cheaper for me to buy a g920i model from amazon than buying the canadian version from wind.
will the signal strength be different?

According to Expansys.ca the 920i will work on WIND for voice and HSPA+ but not LTE; it does support LTE on Bell, Telus and Rogers. No version of S6 currently supports LTE on WIND AFAIK. I ended up getting a 64GB 920f from Expansys because I wanted a white device right away. Shipped it was $30 less than outright from Bell with the perk of being unlocked.

Exchanging for international model

I pre-ordered the Galaxy S7 Sprint variant, black. Mint condition and network unlocked.
What's the best price range I'd be looking if I were to sell?
And what's currently the best international price/offer that's network unlocked?
Edit: after further reading, would it even be worth switching to an international model? From my understanding, roms are very uncommon for exynos

[Question] Bying a S7 in USA for International USE

Hello guys. I am traveling to USA this week and I wanted to buy a second hand Galaxy S7, from Craigslist.
I live in Brazil, and I was wondering which US carriers I can buy that would work here. (All Brazilian carriers are GSM)
Sprint? Cricket? Verizon? AT&T? T Mobile?
Thanks!

AT&T and T-Mobile are GSM carriers. Sprint and Verizon are CDMA. Also, the S7 model SM-G930U is unbranded, unlocked and supports both CDMA and GSM. Be cautious about purchases from Craigslist. Don't want to scare you too much, but you might want to read this for some pointers about staying safe and not getting ripped off.

Thanks. I ended up buying the international version on amazon for 520 dollars. Thank you

i'm waiting for a good deal on black friday in US to use it in India.
Which version to purchase?? kindly clarify

AT&T the worst carrier who doesn't push updates to devices outside of the U.S.

Actually At&t is the only American variant that doesn't receive updates without the At&t sim card. All other variants (T-mobile, Verizon, Sprint) seem fine to do so with the update without their respective sim cards outside the american jurisdiction. I have used an unlocked LG G4(At&t), Samsung note 4 (Tmobile), Samsung S3 (At&t) and now using Note 5 (Verizon) here in Pakistan because american variants are a little cheaper than the international models. I regularly received updates on Verizon and Tmobile despite not having the corresponding sim cards but never got one on the at&t variants. So this will be last time I use or buy unlocked AT&T branded devices from ebay or Amazon
So the reason for telling you all of this is to never invest into american variants specifically the at&t one. Good luck!
