Has anybody heard about this? I've been trying to buy the NotePro here in Ireland but Currys/PcWorld are all out and have told me it's probably due to a new model about to be released.

Am about to take the plunge and join the Galaxy Note 10.1 family.
I have a choice of buying this in the UK or the US.
However I will only be able to connect the device to the internet to receive updates in the UK or in Sri Lanka (!).
If I buy a US model will I be able to connect to the internet and receive official Samsung updates in the UK or another country?
Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this matter for me.
(The US model I'm thinking of is from Negri Electronics: black 3g model with SKU SMGGALNOT16UB)
I think the way updates work are every model number has a country code built in and when checking for update the same information is sent and hence it connects to the server of that particular country so irrespect of with country you are in you will only receive update for country of orgin
Thanks Samir,
Guess I could get either one then. Any idea if the UK or US market is likely to get updates sooner?
Also, does anyone know if the black 3G unit is officially available in the US? I'm wondering if Negri is selling some international unit.
Plus, OT, but any idea if a 32GB 3G model is available anywhere?
I think US is the last one to get updates but its not that far away from others, No officially 3G version is not available in US sorry I am not from US but my opinion is based on user feedback given in this forum.
As far as 32GB version I have no clue to be frank
JB hifi in Australia sells the 3g 32gb model though I don't know if they post overseas... It's about $800AUD, not sure about postage...
Hey all,
This is a bit of a speculative question as in theory we don't know what is happening until tomorrow.
But rumors at the moment from Handtec in the UK state the MotoX won't be available for sale over here.
So my question is, assuming this is true and the MotoX is available tomorrow but only in the US what sort of things do I need to be aware of if I want to import the phone.
The handset seems like its going to be unlocked from the beginning so I assume I shouldn't have any issue using a UK sim.
If its US only, will I find it hard to track down a supplier who will actually send to the UK?
Anyone imported a phone to the UK from another country got any advice?

Hello! I am looking to import a Samsung S8+ 128GB/6GB varient from Hong Kong. They have rolled Samsung Pay over there, wanted to know if anyone has had any luck using it in the U.S.
I know several methods have been implemented to get Samsung Pay to work. Seems to be hit or miss depending on where the phone is from. Does anyone have any experience with a Samsung device from this region? Thanks!
BUMP
Any ideas or opinions would be appreciated!

How did it turn out? Did Samsung pay work for you in the US?
Hi All
I am in the UK and am about to buy the S3 Frontier... but my question is this - there seems to be at least 3 variants that I can find mentioned on the web - UK / US / International. In the UK the price on the UK device is about $400 and the US version is $299. I can get the UK model from a high street shop or online... but I also see much cheaper version on eBay... as low as $250. I checked the part number of one of the eBay ones and it is SM-R760NDAAXAR. What I cant seem to find is a detailed comparison of the UK, US and International Version.
The information I can find is conflicting and some say that the US version is LTE - which I understand means that it has a hard wired SIM card inside so it can connect to the cellular network directly with no phone. I think the UK one doesn't have this feature... which TBH I am not worried about.
I have also read that if I buy the US version I wont be able to get Android Pay working, etc. I have also read that if I get the International version it will update to UK via software update when it syncs with my S7.
Can anyone tell me if there is any issues with buying an out-of-region device as its tempting because they are about half the price than on the high street here in the UK.
Thanks in advance

You should be able to flash SM-R760NDAAXAR with UK firmware but I'm not sure if Samsung Pay will be active.
Hello all,
My sister decided to buy a S21+ off Kijiji and when I found out I checked the model to see if it was even Canadian, and it was not.
So from what I see she might have lost a big 5G band, what else is bad with this phone for use in Canada? Can I put the Canadian firmware on it? or should I just sell it to someone in the states? What else would she loose?
Thanks everyone
As long as she has 4G losing 5G isn't the end of downloading...
and will updates still come through?
