It hasn't been launched globally, only a few countries in the Far East have it, hence the link mentioned by one person in this thread was to an SM-G935S which is the SK Telecom variant.
Doubtful the phone will be released with a 935F/FD SKU since nobody in Europe would be willing to pay such a hefty price for it. Might as well just get the Black Onyx and pop a 128 GB SD Card in it.
The problem is when we have to use 2 sim cards then we are out of space.
I've got the sim card double taped to microsd thing, so no issue with space.
If the memory card got corrupted then what will be the result.

Have been thinking of doing this. But I have read a few reports of the tray getting stuck. Did you have to sand down or reduce the thickness of the MicroSD card or the SIM?
Also, does this work on the latest Nougat beta? I remember reading that Samsung had disabled this mod via software.

Since here in Indonesia, sim card is a lot cheaper than microsd. I do all the modification (burn, sanded down) on it. I also make sure they stick firmly with double tape. Destroy 3 sim card but it's only cost $1 for replacement per card.
This is my first non root android, so no Nougat for me.

Unfortunately it states there is 8GB / 16GB storage which is not removable.
Looks like if there is an SD socket it won't be accessible without voiding the warranty, difficult to say for sure...
Mind you, I suspect they're not allowed to mention SD slots "officially" anyway. I'm still hoping the base model is 8GB of on-board NAND and the 16GB model has an 8GB card in the slot as well.
16GB is enough for me. Just as long as it's not 8GB, I'm happy.
Yeah me too. 16 Is good. I am more upset it isn't available for order.
Also interesting is it list 900/1700/2100 bands. So no European specific models? I hope thats what that means

No you don't get it. This is the USA website so it will show you a model that WILL WORK IN THE USA.
It just so happens that the bands are also supposed in Europe (900/2100).
Europe models however do not have the 1700 band.
So there are European specific models out there (just checkout clove UK and expansys UK).
Australia also a model that is 1900/2100.

I am aware of that. What I am wondering if expansys is wrong info and there is only one model that covers all. Nokia does it. This is the official website posting not 3rd party like expansys. Get it
Is there a dell/uk? What do they list
This is (possibly) terrible news.
But, you could interpret it to say it contains 8 or 16GB of Non-Removable storage, leaving the microSD slot free for expansion.
If you look at the official Samsung website for the focus, there is no mention of the microSD slot. All it says is: "8GB ROM On Board Memory". I hope that this is the same situation.
No, the worst news has been confirmed.

My order is getting cancelled. I'd be better off with an Omnia 7, as it'll work better in daylight. Unfortunately it means I've lost at least 2 weeks of having a decent phone for nothing. As much as I like the look and the keyboard, the big number 1 reason I ordered it was the microSD slot. Without that, I can't justify the massive upfront hit of the SIM free price over the contract-subsidised price of another handset.
I'm rather irritated right now.
Still can't find out any info officially (contacted dell uk and they have no clue)
On the clove website I see the below.
8GB Memory
Expansion Slot Yes
Type MicroSDHC
Capacity (Up to) 32GB
I am sure in a few days time it will all be confirmed by someone.

If the build is like all other phones, the microsd should be behind that cover. We probably won't find out until someone daring enough is willing to open up the back and take a look. Compared to the HD7, it looks like only a screw is holding it in place.

This is the whole problem with this phone. Dell doesn't even list full specs on this phone. Even the official page just lists only some specifics. But from what I read and seen, the UK or unlocked version seem only to have 8GB.
it's 8 GB >.> why do you guys need more so badly.
I'd be satisfied with that.
I have my 32 GB Zune HD that I am fully satisfied with continuing to use for music and video. I love my Zune.

I have 11GB of music. Therefore an 8GB phone is not enough. I'm sure many people have much more music.
You might say I don't need all my music on my phone, but that argument will fall down the moment I think "I've not listened to that track in a while... and I still can't because it's not on my phone". It also falls over when I've copied my 6GB of music I really want to carry around with me, and then I fancy taking a film or tv show with me, but I can't because I have no storage space left.
You might say use Skydrive, but with most networks here capping monthly data at 500MB, that'll get used up pretty quickly, particularly if video is required. Zune Pass has this issue too, coupled with the fact that most of my music is soundtracks and rather obscure stuff, none of which is available on Zune (I've looked).
Ill be satisfied if there is a 16GB version as appears there is on Dell's website. It was either 8Gb with accessible micro-SD expansion, or 16Gb without it. I can live with 16Gb. I have a 32GB zune im nowhere near halfway through. 8Gb was just way too little though.
No SD card kind of sucks, but it's all good. I'm sure someone will find out where the sd card is hiding. Unless it's onboard? If it's NAND, then I'd prefer 16gb of that vs an sd card slot, to be honest.
I emailed clove yesterday and got this response a few minutes ago:
We have checked with our supplier of the Dell Venue Pro and they have confirmed that the early demonstration models they have seen did feature a microSD slot. Due to this we would assume at this time that the Dell Venue Pro does feature a microSD slot.

Not sure what to make of this.
That says to me that they have no more of a clue than any of us at this point!
Some people who have purchased the Venue Pro are saying they can't find the SD card slot, certainly not in the battery compartment, but others hold out hope that it is there underneath a cover and is reasonably easily accessible.
I hope we find out for sure by the 16th because I may have to reconsider the purchase if it turns out the SD card slot really isn't there or it's too embedded to get at without voiding the warranty.
8GB is not enough - my HD2 has a 16GB card and that has zero free space, in fact I was looking forward to doubling up to 32GB so I could put a bit more of my mp3 collection onto the phone.
Keep your eyes peeled for real evidence one way or the other...

it honestly boils down to keyboard and amoled (venue pro) vs no keyboard and no amoled with higher price tag outright (hd7)
I like wp7, it took a lot for me to get used to it granted but it is "enjoyable"
That said a keyboard would enhance my experience
According to LG quick start guide pdf: ( http://stadium.weblogsinc.com/engadget/files/Nexus4_QSG_US_Print_V1.0_121005.pdf ). The nexus 4 takes a micro sim. Is this somehow different that regular sim card? Is this different that the one used in the Samsung Galaxy SII ?
a bit confused. Just wondering if I have to give t-mobile a call to get a "micro sim card"

The one in the middle is a "regular" sim card and the one on the bottom a micro sim card (which has been broken out of the "regular" one). If your "regular" sim card doesn't have these "breaking points" you could also cut it into the right size with scissors, you would need to be careful though...

There is no T-Mobile variant. They just hiked up the price of the device. And the only thing micro used by the Nexus 4 is the Micro SIM Card.

I spent some time on the phone with T-Mobile and they claim there is a variant with the micro SD card. I have not purchased it yet but I talked to customer service at T-Mobile a second time and the guy I talked to said he has one and it has it. Not sure if it's true and he's just blowing smoke but I'm hoping to order one for Christmas and if it doesn't have it, I'll raise hell and return it and get it from Google.
I bought mine at t-mobile and their wrong, it has none they might have confused the sim tray with a micro sd slot. But like the previous poster said there is none and there will never be one.

It does NOT. There are no variants, there is only one model of Nexus 4 (in possibly 2 colors). TMobile sells the same exact thing the Play Store does.
The mistake from the Tmobile page came from just blindly copy/pasting generic smartphone info. That's it.
I went into a T-mobile store the other day and the rep told me they have microsim adapters available for $5. I've heard lots of stories of people who tried adapters they bought online that were bad quality and didn't fit well and ended up getting stuck inside the phone.
Does anyone have any experience with the official one t-mobile sells?

I would just stick to using one sim card. You don't have to buy a sim card they usually go for $10-20 unless you get lucky and hey one for free. Go YouTube on hour to cut one using the template that's what I did and it works fine. If you failed the cut then you can buy one

I would not recommend T-Mobile's adapters! I tried inserting the adapter(without a sim card to see how it would work) into my old Galaxy S and it got stuck. I had to rip it out which caused the pins to bend and almost break! I had to smoosh them down several times before a sim card would register. I probably would of ruined my microsim had it been in there.

Please tell me you are not serious. If you insert ANY SIM adapter into the phone without the SIM card then the hole is left open where the SIM would go and the pins (which read the SIM) will lock the adapter into place. No matter which SIM adapter you use, you should NOT install it without the SIM card. I'm pretty sure it even says this on the SIM adapter's packaging.
Common sense people, try to use it.
...With that said, the T-Mobile SIM adapter has been working perfectly for me when swapping my micro SIM from the N4 to my Galaxy nexus.

I've used a SIM adapter after I changed to micro-SIM waiting for my Nexus 4 to come in. It worked well in my phone, which was an Optimus T at the time. I know I could've purchased it cheaply online, but it worked well for what I needed and it was only $5. I still have mine just in case I decide to switch to a phone for a specific day or anything.

Hi, I had the same thing. I upgraded from my Original Note 1 to the Note 3. The sim card was way too big. The shop I bought the phone from (a big media chain) used a funky gadget to cut my card to fit the Note 3. It works great. I even got the sim card cut out so I can recreate the original larger card and use it in the original Note 1. It works there too.
Can you ask your shop to cut your card to size?

I bought the phone from Amazon in the U.S and the card is a T-Mobile so I guess I'll ask T-Mobile for help.
This baffles me. I don't understand how Samsung would produce a device that can't accept a standard SIM card.
I anticipate that T-Mobile will not help me and that I will just have to return the phone and buy another.
thanks for you prompt reply and I'm glad that you got your problem solved.

The answer to your question is that I didn't know that sim cards came in different sizes. I'll surely ask them about it tomorrow.
Thanks.
You can either ask service or just search online for sim card template. The PDF I found a year ago had the outline of a regular SIM card. I taped my card to the print out and cut along the outlines of the small card. If you look for it on the internet, you can also find information that even cutting a bit through the connectors doesn't harm the card as long as you don't cut into the chip of the card. Just make sure you use an appropriate sized pair of scissors as it's getting hard to see the outlines if the one you use is too big. But with most everything in life: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK :fingers-crossed:
Thanks, Mikegrmn.
It was news to me but there is a sim card called a micro sim which I am hoping will do the trick for me.
Apparently this is not an uncommon problem because you can buy a gizmo that will trim Sim cards

Yes, like I said. That there are tools available was known to me. But when I bought my razr HD last year, it was some time close to the end of the week and a colleague told me that he had such a tool and that he would bring it the day after. Well, he forgot, and by Satarday night, I was so impatient that I just used my scissors and the template. Stores are closed here from Saturday afternoon to Monday and my colleague was out somewhere with his GF. And as I always use prepaid SIMs, I thought I'd give it a try. Hadn't itworked out, I'd just gotten a new SIM and a new phone number. I only hand out my number to a couple of people for my private phone, so changing numbers isn't a biggy

Trying really hard to accept that this isn't a wind up!
Micro-SIMs have been around for years, but didn't really hit consumer products until the iPhone was released 3 years ago.
Pretty much every flagship phone uses them now, except the iPhone 5 which uses an even smaller NANO-SIM. My Galaxy Note 1 was the last phone I owned that used a regular mini-SIM, and that was 2 years ago.
The world has moved on, and you've been left behind!

Yup the Note 1 uses a regular sized sim
The Note 3 uses a Micro-Sim
You can pick one up from your carrier as replacement to swap your plan into
OR
Just cut your old sim..
All the posts above me got you covered :good:
The micro sim is the next generation sim cards. Every carrier supply new micro cards on demand. If not they are closing down pretty fast couse this is the new standard.
Why would you bother bying tools when a new micro sim is only one call to support away??...!
Smaller cards = more space awailable when designing phones.
Do you not remember when sim cards was the size of a credit card?
