Anyone know the spec for the AU galaxy s II?
E.g. exynos? or tegra? Nfc or no nfc?
Current ones are Optus branded apparently. Exynos with no NFC.
The current ones are the same as the European version, meaning they have the very same features as the UK version (Super Amoled Plus, Exynos, no NFC).
Apart from the Korean version no other regional version supports NFC right now (with the only exception being the Indian version which is due for release tomorrow).
If I was in Australia I'd probably go for the Indian version as it has the same specs as the European version (Super Amoled plus, Exynos) plus an NFC chip integrated.
Even if you don't need NFC at all, having NFC on board will certainly increase your resale value which is quite useful when you'll sell it on ebay in a couple of months because of the Galaxy S III's upcoming release
Anyone have info on the upcoming one by vodafone au?
I actually like to have nfc as well...

you need to find out if your country's uses the same frequency as the Korean model. I know its 2100 for S Korea but there could be more. The reason why Korean is cheaper could be that only S Korea or a few country's is compatible with Korean models.
I'm using SHV-E210S for a week now, so far it works in China, HK, S'pore and Indonesia. So I guess should be not much different from the international version. There are a few issues I discovered with this model.
1. Battery size is smaller than the international version so you may need to buy backup battery from Korea.
2. Unable to upgrade software/firmware unless you use SK Telecom's USIM.
The advantage I found:
1. This Korean model sports 2GB RAM whereas the international model only has 1GB RAM
Anyone knows more? Pls share!

The only difference i have seen is that within the UK you can get the 16GB and the 32GB versions, all international versions i have seen have all been 16GB but generally as others have said the UK is int version but UK has a provider that offers 32GB internal.
The US however get 2GB ram and only dual core not quad like int version

and over here (Australia) we have the 2Gb quad core one as well! That is the I9305 though so not quite the same, but it is still an S3.
Thanks
First of all, I live in United States.
I found the item on eBay titled as "[Smart Cell] Brand New Samsung Galaxy S 3 SHV-E210S White -*Unlocked*" (I cannot post links..;;
The seller states that "the phone has been unlocked so that you use it on any GSM carrier worldwide".
Does it mean it use sim-card??
Also is there disadvantages of using Korean Samsung Galaxy S 3.
PS. The advantage of Korean Samsung Galaxy S 3 is that it has 2GB of Ram with Samsung Exynos 4 Quad 4412 Processor.
Thank You!!

if u use Korea version for galaxy s3, can use worldwide, i mean unlock.. can use everywhere and any country
but, the disadvantages is the sms text is limited, international version can use more the 300words, but Korea version only can type less then 80words, so i recommend for use international versions.
Hi guys
I have international version of Samsung Galaxy S2 Gt-I9100 with bad mother board.I have a friend in US who has two S2's with broken displays.But they are US versions from T-Mobile and Sprint.
Can anyone tell me is it possible to swap the LCD of international version in to US versions of Samsung Galaxy S2?
Thank you in advance
No, the screen on the SGH T989 (the US T-Mobile version) is larger @ 4.52", the I9100 is 4.3" (source: GSM Arena).
And what about the main board?Are they the same or different?Maybe it is better to find used main board and put it in my phone.
Processors are different, might not be compatible with other components in the phone. Yes, your best bet is to try & source a 2nd hand board (the correct one) - search online.
