Where to buy the SM910C? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Where can I purchase the the SM910C? I can't find any reputable seller. The "C" (Exynos) is suppose to be compatible with virtually every network (and US LTE Bands to some extent); similar to the "F" (Snapdragon)

Mine is is the N910C variant, i am based in Malaysia
The C variant is sold in South East Asia i think

C-version can purchase in Russia (after 23.10 ~850-900$, but i don't know seller from us).. U-version (the same except modem) - in Korea

Dubai
Well this is the model that is sold in Dubai, UAE. Just got mine yesterday.

which shop in dubai has the note 4

You can pre-order C, U and F in Poland (but stores aren't sure yet which version they will have and the price is higher than in other countries).

Can people give us some links please

The C Variant is all I'll really need now, haha. I wonder what the sales figure is now for the Note 4 in general.

@AndreiLux,
Hi, I live in Ecuador and the networks here are Claro and Movistar. I think the 910C is the version I need but not 100%. I am visiting the States in 2 weeks and want to bring back the new phone with me, so I need to get this purchased right away so it can be shipped on time. Do you know what the difference is between the 910C and 910U? If you develop for one, will it be compatible with the other? I will be happy to contribute to your fundraiser campaign to make sure it gets funded.
I am *only* interested in this phone with a custom rom, I don't want all the extra Samsung apps. I want pure Android. So it's very important to me to make sure I buy the right phone that is going to be modded by the community.
I'm having some trouble finding someone that will ship it to the States quickly enough for a reasonable price.
Thank you.

I'm not getting the 560 € price, I'm seeing 710€ on both links 2999 polish zloty is 710 € according to google.
And how reliable is ordering in poland or russia? Does anybody have experience with that?

Depends on your VAT. Anyway one of those shops got good reviews from outside purchasers and they apparently speak English and German if you send them a mail.
I would avoid Russia if possible.

Keep in mind, that some models have a REGION-lock: you must first make a call in the region the phone is locked of a minimum of 5 minutes, before SIM-cards of other regions are accepted!

Thanks I contacted them. I also contacted the redcoon one, I used the dutch branch once and got positive experiences with it. If anyone wants to know I'll comment when they reply.

Can't you simply flash a ROM (as long as the modem is the same) from a different region (other than the EU) and unlock the region-lock?

I contacted Morele and this is what they said about international shipping:
Hello,
thank you for your ineterst in our offer. Unfortuately, we realize foreign shipping only on Europen Union territory, so we don't able to make order like this for you.

Ah I thought you were from the EU. Well then best guess is a importer which gets South American units or a Middle Eastern retailer like one of those UAE shops.

Is better to buy in Europe, Korea or China?

Hi all
I would buy this phone and my friend is now in China and then will go to Korea.
Where better to buy? N9005 Snapdragon, Exynos or N900S N900? Chinese.
I hope that some of you advise me.
thanks
Do you know by any chance the price in different countries?

If you have LTE in your area I would recommend getting the N9005 in Korea. China doesn't offer either the N9005 or N900, they have their own variants which all lack google apps

There's a good chance of network frequency incompatibilities if you're going to use an Asian model anywhere else in the world. Not to mention the Region lock, but both can in theory be solved by flashing and rooting.
As for EU prices:
Netherlands €672
Germany €649
Belgium €649
Switzerland 749CHF/€606
(no, I have no idea why the price in the Netherlands is so ridiculously high.
Actually yes I do: It's good old-fashioned Dutch Greed.)

best thing to do always, buy the set where you live, mainly for warrantr purposes, I have taken to dealer 3 different sets in 6 years, If you get yours from china whom are you going to claim warranty if needed? think carefully, luck

Good thing there's no import restrictions or costs in the EU, then. Even with shipping it's cheaper to order in another country.....
For you Americans complaining about having to pay $300, that's $1133.

Do NOT buy in China, as this will be the locked Chinese version with no play store, etc... Having said that, any phone market in China will also have the HK or international version as well (9005)... so if you're friend is smart enough to be able to identify the international version and make sure he/she doesn't buy the China version, this would be a good move. Prices for import phones in China are often quite keen, but then again this comes down to your friend's negotiating power...
I've always found Samsung stuff in Korea to be more expensive than elsewhere, and a Korean colleague of mine specifically bought his S4 in HK instead of in Korea due to this...
HK probably the best bet though. Note, reason is simply that HK has no sales tax, so is always going to be cheaper than somewhere that does... HOWEVER, some countries allow you to get tax back at the airport. For example, if you buy the phone in Germany, but you don't reside there, just show the tax receipt and the phone to the tax office at the airport and you'll get something around 15% of the price back. Note not all countries do this. China doesn't. Singapore does. HK doesn't need to. I think all of the EU does (as long as you're not an EU resident).
I personally bought my N3 in Australia a couple of weeks ago for AUD 880. I then got around 80 AUD back at the airport (have forgotten exact amount but around 80 AUD) so my actual price was 800 AUD which is 565 EUR / 773 USD. Seoul airport wanted over 1,000 USD for it. HK airport wanted around 900 USD, but note these are airport prices and this was days after launch.
never buy an android device in china, you will find that the google framework/service are all missing, btw i got my n900 in hk.

Availability of dual sim variant

Hello everyone,
I am eagerly waiting to preorder the much-awaited S8(+), but since I do not live in any of the regions which traditionally supply the dual sim variant (South Korea? India? Singapore? China? Thailand?) I would like to know if any supplier is well known for forwarding a dual-sim S8 to Europe, and if so which one would you advise choosing.
My guess is preorders will be quickly saturated so I would like to know where I could get my hands on a dual sim S8 as early as possible
Thank you xda!
Me too, for import to France
In my opinion best dual sim versions coming from UAE. Currently I have s7 edge duos from UAE, and is perfect. Looks same like EU version (even address on backplate is UK). I had in the past s6 duos from china, all documentation in Chinese, also China address on the back. However it was working perfect.
Anyone know reliable online shop in UAE, who shipping to UK?

There is none reliable online store and I don't recommend buying from there as as difficult to get local warranty, still if you want to buy than get it from someone working or living there like friend or relative etc.
Saying reliable online store I mean, real store with good recommendation, who will send device to me without any problems. Unfortunately I don't know any person living there...

I don't agree with many ppl here.. There are lots or reliable sources in uae, well known local online stores with a track record, i personally bought from them (and i live in dubai) and i know for a fact that they ship to many customers in Europe (reading from few other threads on xda related to Samsung products) try Mike&Smith uae and try mygsm uae.. Just Google them.. Hope this helps as i did buy from both many times..
I contacted mygsm uae. They will have s8 duos in stock next week, Shipping to UK is £20, so I will use them

WooooW i never thought they will get it that fast, am already on the waiting list for several sellers here in dubai. Good luck for us.
Thank you for all the advice, mygsm does not display price yet and Mike&Smith sells the S8+ for 4000AED (1020€) which is crazy expensive, will any reseller be cheaper, or is there any other dual-sim friendly country which may sell it for less?

Yes I did. Bought it at launch. For the same price as in the US, I got a fast wireless charger, OEM case, Bluetooth speaker, and cash voucher thrown in. Quite a good deal I must say.
I split my time between the US, Europe, and Bangkok. I don't get my phones in the US anymore (from AT&T) because they are locked, have less LTE bands and, most importantly, don't offer dual SIM versions!

That means it was imported from United Arab Emirates. I also think it means you don't have any warranty service in Romania from Samsung.

Well that kind of sucks... I have 2 years of warranty from the seller so no huge issue but still. At least I hope that the quality control for UEA is better then Eastern Europe. The phone looks to be good with no bloatware installed and I am planning to root and install custom ROMs so bye bye warranty anyway...
Thanks for the reply though.

Amazon are showing the LTE version but only from 3rd party resellers who look like they are located in Europe. Personally I went for the WiFi version as preferred to buy from Amazon direct. Now I tether to my EE mifi or phone
It is the phone functionality of the LTE version that attracts me to the mediapad, more than anything else!

UK is still in the EU, for now. And since it's sold by Amazon they ship to every country inside the EU. Too bad that is most likely going to change for UK after the separation. I always prefer to buy from DE because it's cheaper most of the time. And now they even translated the German site officially in English so it's easier to work with.

I can probably use a forwarding service like 1grandtrunk.com. The shipping price of 33$ to my country is pretty good. Do you know if this phone will work in my country though? I'm from Morocco.

If the bands your service provider is using are in this device, I don't see why not.
Indian phone bands are more equal to EU bands and possibly ME/NA zones, so the phone may work in your country....Pl check specifics of your wireless provider, for 4G/VoLTE compatibility.
