This phone is sold for 400 is it worth buying guys? Can I use it with AT&T in English language...Anything I should worry about? I need as many responses as I can get before I head out to get it!
Just got the Spain version from the eBay Daily Deal/Buy.com seller yesterday.
For $400 I guess it's a good deal used.
how do i know if it's GT i9100 or 9100T, the international version vs the US version?
Ask to the seller. You can find model behind the battery.
Regards.
Hello there, I live in Norway but have som family overseas and I desperately need a new phone.
Is it possible for me to buy it in USA for a cheap price and use it back here in Norway?
Do I need to unlock it? I know there are a few on ebay unlocked etc. but they are all on bid, so I dont know if thats time enough.
I see AT&T have them listed at 150USD but I guess you have to bind to a subscription too?
Anyway I hope to get som fast helpful replies
I have been buying the AT&T versions for years now, extending my contract term and trying the NEXT plan. But with the bigger carriers locking the software down I want to buy an international version, but I'm unsure where to get one.
interesting, I was looking at us version of Samsung site and realize they do not sell latest smartphones provider free and unlocked;
you have to try the Canada site, looks like up north here, we can buy Samsung phones unlocked, even the newest ones
There are a number of sites that deal with overseas international phones. You can also find them on Amazon.com quite easily. Here is one http://welectronics.com/gsm/SAMSUNGSMPHONES.shtml take note they are selling a 32GB & 64GB only version, not sure if they can't get the 128GB option, or it will come later.
Order Directly from Samsung or Use eBay Amazon Walmart Best buy or this super place swappa.com
Buying an international version sounds like a good idea.

I'm in the same boat. Just need to make sure the international version will support AT&T's LTE bands. If they do, I'll be going this route as well.
Try GSM Nation. Thet have the unlocked and at&t compatible version. Pre-Ordered mine.
Do not even try Canada. Yes we have stuff that work on pretty much all GSM carriers, but never can you buy an unlocked phone unless it's Google, Chinese made or bought overpriced on Sony's website. Samsung Nevers sells unlocked here. Got to use typical methods
Canada is not really international per se, Its networks are set up almost if not identical to those in the US, hence almost all devices are identical to those available in the US market.
There are however, few retailers that sells international versions of devices here in Canada. NCIX.com and Expansys Canada are the first 2 that come to mind. Its just a little more tougher to find as some retailers either don't post the complete information or don't even know their own inventory as some may carry the international versions without even knowing it.
Any other suggestions?
Buy an unbranded one off eBay.
does samsung pay work with the F variant? If not then when will it work? because I am thinking about getting one as it is really cheap.
You have to wait maybe early next year in Europe,
Does anyone know if Samsung Pay can be made to work in the US on the International Exynos variant? I've been monitoring the other Galaxy threads and there;'s been some success, but haven't seen anything on the S9 yet.
There are all types of issues trying to get Samsung Pay working on an international Galaxy device.
I contacted Samsung Support last year or the year before and they stated that Samsung Pay could possibly work if the origin country of the device you are using supports Samsung Pay.
I couldn't get it to work properly back then and I switched phones before I could resolve the issue.
Not sure how it is now. If Samsung Pay is important to you, I'd recommend an unlocked US variant of the phone.
