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...
The amazon listing said
"Octa Core 1.8+1.3GHz, 2Gb RAM, 32Gb storage, 4G, LTE, BT, NFC, Camera, Android 4.4.4)"
SM-G850FHSEBTU
Which is the Exynos edition.
However, I just found out that it's shipping from Hong Kong.
Further complicated by the fact that Amazon marketplace has bundled several sellers under this same listing, possibly incorrectly?
China gets the Snapdragon variant, apparently, so now I'm worried that I have the slightly less good one.
Any idea if I could still be getting the Exynos variant?
Amazon will help get me a refund if it's not, but still... hassle...
The seller name is wowcamera, who seem to be nobodies (but have fair reviews).
thanks guys

Octa-core is the exynos version, the snapdragon is only quadcore
Tell the seller to send you a screenshot of CPU-Z application.
Here's an example of exynos version.

G850F is exynos version.

As long as the model number is not "A," then it should be the Exynos 8-core.

So here is the question. I' currently looking to buy a RN4 but I'm between Chinese and Indian version. Apparently, Chinese version has a much much better build quality (no plastic parts, it has chamfered edges, antenna lines) compared to Indian version. Indian version has a plastic on top and bottom and just doesn't look as pretty as Chinese version. BUT, I like flashing custom ROMs (that's why I'm here), and AFAIK, Snapdragon version SHOULD have better support for custom ROMs. So what is your suggestion? I'm planning on waiting (maybe month or two) to see how ROM development goes for both versions, and then make my chioce. What are your thoughts and predictions?
There's said to be a new model coming out in a few days, probably called the Note 4X in China and the Note 5 elsewhere, so best to wait a bit. Rumor is they'll both have a Snapdragon chip.

I hope you're right, I've seen leaks of the device gsmarena.com and there they show 4GB of RAM and Note 4X as device model, but researching some numbers I've realized it uses the same processor that is used in Indian variant rather than Snapdragon 653 everyone was talking about, so that leaked device might just be Indian variant of RN4 since it did leak before Indian variant was actually released.
Yes, I've noted that sometimes Xiaomi "leaks" details of a new model, but then the actual specs don't match up to the leaked details. So you have to check carefully. Will the new model really have Gorilla Glass4, for example? We'll see.
If your interested in the Snapdragon model its probably best to wait for the China SD model as the LTE bands are very limited on the India SD.

sd625 version should have more consistent battery life(10hours sot). Just wait few days , new china version should be same as indian version .
625 is the newest version, much powerful than 810, 801 and 650. It's confirmed now, 4x uses 625 soc. That would be battery efficient and good quality camera. Much better than helio x20....I will sell my mtk and buy sd 625 Redmi note 4x hehehe
Returning my Exynos version off the back of disappointing battery life I've experienced, real shame as I love the phone but can't handle having to nurse it through a day.
Has anyone tried importing an American version of the S9+? Looks like it's possible to get one for under £700 on Amazon.
Not too fussed about the locked bootloader but was wondering if anyone has any real world experience of both the exynos and SD variants and their relative battery performance/ any other quirks (I.e. wouldn't be eligible under warranty)?
Hard to tell from the forums as everyone's usage differs but generally speaking the SD seems to have a significant advantage. (Have also closely followed anandtechs work but more interested in people's real-world performance)
I have the Latin America/Hong Kong Dual SIM Snapdragon 845 version (SM-G9650/DS) and the battery life is not that good but is enough for me.
I've returned my UK exynos to very due to battery life and call dropouts. Liked the phone tho.
Just purchased a 256gb g9650 on eBay from France for £690 which seemed like a good deal. Hopefully it will be better.

Any1 knows the way to import the dual sim unlocked SD version to India? EBay, Amazon, aliexpress were of no help.
This is a shame, Was thinking of picking one up from O2 again. Had it for a week before the p20 and it seemed fine

It seems they have only the sim free versions, won't help that in India. Anyways thanks for the response.
If you have to go SD845 get the 9650 https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_...R5.TRC0.A0.H0.Xg9650.TRS0&_nkw=g9650&_sacat=0

re
isnt the sd better in battery life ? i thought it was from what i been reading. I also thought that it came with an unlocked bootloader
I have both (exynos on Three uk and SD on USA T Mobile). I would say that the SD marginally had better battery life but since three rolled out an update last week the battery life between the two has been more or less the same. This makes me think the exynos just has a badly tuned cpu governer and software updates will even out the gap...
Also I would recommend against the SD models in the UK unless you can unlock the bootloader and root etc or you will be stuck with a firmware and CSC that won't support carrier aggregation LTE, WiFi & calling. Had this issue with a Hong Kong imported S8 Plus last year and changing CSC was buggy as hell...
According to the xda review:
If you purchase the device in the USA, you’ll get mmWave support alongside sub-6GHz 5G, while the rest of the world will have to contend with sub-6GHz 5G

And also:
The USA and regions like Hong Kong and China get the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC, while the rest of the world gets the Exynos 2100 SoC.

Where can I check if the Hong Kong and China versions will get mmWave support? Or is it obvious that they will?
Is there any benefit to getting the international (Exynos) version if I'm often out of the US?
Couldn't find any official docs, any help will be appreciated
