Hello,
My girlfriend and I bought both the Z5C in Europe. I got a rev. 1 and her is a rev. 3.
Does this mean that there are hardware improvements in rev. 3?
I'm thinking about exchanging my rev. 1 unit.
I dont think there is any difference between revisions, perhaps just patches manufactured and checked on different times

Hello,
I have a Nokia Lumia 800 and i have noticed two hardware revision numbers.
Mine is 112.1402.2.3. Others users have 112.1402.2.4. Are there any differences between these two?
My guess would be that the newer version doesn't cover the micro-usb port.
I have version 112.1402.2.4 and I think there is no difference between thoose two.
And mine cover micro-usb port
Could be something as simple as manufactured in a different factory, I suppose.
Hi, just got a new G5 H850 European version, and saw it has a 604K... serial number (on the side of the white box).
After seeing this video I am curious about the differences between the
new and old serial number G5's, wondering if I should return it.
Mine was bought 9 November 2016 (officially imported by LG in Romania) and it came with a 604K serial, meaning April 2016,
why could it be so old, didn't they renew the stock for 7 months ?
Also, the HW revision from Settings->About Hardware is Rev 1.0, and on the green box it says "MAY66193505(1.0)WR".
What are your serial numbers and purchase dates ?
Does anyone have a HW revision bigger that 1.0 ?
Thanks.
Hello guys,
I am thinking about buying Mate 20 pro as my new smartphone. I really love it overall, but I am also scared of #gluegate.
As I see in Internet threads and groups that were talking about it recently get silence, and the phone is still selling great.
So my question is - should I worry about screen in this device or buying it 8 months after release date is now completly safe, becouse new parts of M20pro are modified/improved?
Not heard of any recent issues. Was just the first batch.
I have the first batch, no issues with the display so far
How can I find my device's batch? And which batches had problems?
I think that this was a problem of only first batches, but I am not sure.
Production date is in serial number
6 and 7th sign of serial number is year of production
8th sign is month:
number 1 to 9 are months from January to september
A, B or C means october, november and december
So for example 18C means december 2018
191 means January 2019

If you download hw device info to the phone you can see if its a boe or a lg panel. I have had zero issues with 3 different boe panels. Every lg had the issue.
Mine is 18C and no issues at all with anything.

I see that B&H Photo sells XQ-BC62 model in US as "Sony XPERIA 1 III Dual-SIM 256GB 5G Smartphone (Unlocked)", i.e. the dual-SIM capability is explicitly claimed.
Meanwhile other US web sites (e.g. BestBuy) also sell XQ-BC62 model in US without mentioning the dual-SIM capability.
So, is XQ-BC62 sold in the US a dual-SIM phone or not?
I understand that Sony devices whose designation begins with X are supposed to be dual-SIM, at least hardware-wise. But there could be software differences, right? Or not?
---
A more specific question that interests me is about future AT&T compatibility. The AT&T's compatibility list clams support for XQ-BC62. So, does it mean that the dual-SIM phone from B&H is going to be supported? Or is there a chance that it will stop working on AT&T network after February 2022, despite being on the list?
Uh... Sorry. My mistake. BestBuy page also says it is dual-SIM. Missed it.
Everything's clear now.

As shown on GSM Arena, all model numbers of the Xperia 1 iii are hybrids. That means they have one regular sim slot and one sim/sd card slot even though only one of the two sim cards can use 5G at one time.
I did have the same experience when ordering my Xperia 10 III. On the website I ordered from. It said it would only have one sim slot. But I did some research and found out it was a hybrid, which I did confirm on delivery.

Don't count on Telco support improving. All Sony needs to do is update the firmware but that hasn't happened. Only upstream security patches and critical bug fixes (boot loops, firmware self-destruct, and dangerous overheating) have been released. I haven't seen any badly needed performance or usability fixes.

Would you be kind enough to elaborate? I own this phone, and though I choose to run Nova Prime, I have no usability or performance issues at all!

I put a post at https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xperia-1-iii-and-xperia-pro-i-fatal-flaws.4374813/post-86157973
Many countries are releasing phones with dual sim, but there are some countries like Japan that does not provide dual sim, Many phones in Japan does not support dual sim.
In Bangladesh, Galaxy S23 series is yet to be released for customer; don’t know in which country it is released. However, the phones are available in open/grey market (made in Vietnam). I’m confused how the phone is available? Is there any chance that the phones are defective and hence they are selling in comparatively low price.
I ordered mine last week.
Was supposed to come on feb 17th but I've got it on Friday.
Already selling it in some stores in Germany
i got mine 2 days after official presentation on 3th of february, it was available in mobile operators stores. Also see that other peoples get there devices too on early stages, but now almost every time they are out of stock. Probably on the beginning they are already manufactured some quantity of devices foreach markets that are completely original (made in Vietnam) i also check IMEIs and firmware versions, all looks legit. And don't forget the fact that they come with a full warranty as any other brand new device, so if there are some defects/problems it can be just replaced.

How to check the S23 ultra is legitimate phone?

by IMEI check and also model code / firmware code. But for to be ensure just buy it from some certificated shop or distributor..
In countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan, grey market one is real deal as they are imported from countries where it is cheaper to get and import. However, claiming warranty for defective item is difficult.
Moreover, IMEI checks are other genuine things should be checked to ensure its a legitimate phone.
One issue you can have is that some of the grey market people have access to tools that will allow them to pretty much put anything they want in the system files. They can change the model names, numbers, IMEI and all that. The nice thing is, the IMEI is going to be the one true way to tell if it's legit. If they steal IMEI's and put them on multiple devices, it will get blacklisted pretty quick.
So is this story about false S23U from Vietnam true? Or not?
Phones are made in Vietnam for quite a number of years now (have a S7Edge made there) so the manufacturing country is not an indication of the phone being a "fake".
Bought mine from Samsung (pre-order) and is made in Vietnam.
