G950FD Duos Eynos or Snapdragon? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Anyone can tell me all G950FD Duos model is made with Exyonos chipset or can be with Snapdragon as well? Saw an ebay a lot of G950FD model, on specification listed as with Snapdragon chipset. I tought G95XFD is International unlocked model with Exynos, it is true?

Yep, should be Exynos

As far as I know Snapdragon is sold in USA and China due to the fact those countries use CDMA and Qualcom has patents on this. Everybody else, who uses GSM only has Exynos. USA does not have dual SIM models, but China probably have dual SIM on some models, so I say it's possible to have Snapdragon with dual SIM, but I'm not in China so have not seen one myself.

Yes. Exynos

THE version of note 4...

SM-N910F... This will be the unlocked/simfree/contact free/most popular version of the Galaxy Note 4...
This version, with the Snapdragon 805 processor, will sell worldwide, especially in Europe,
But also in the Middle East, USA and South America countries.

I would be reluctant to purchase any "global unlocked" version based on past experience with the Note 3 and S5. No LTE on both devices. I work in the industry and have ran across many individuals on the same boat with different U.S. carriers.

which is better in cellular signal of S7E snapdragon 820 model or Exynos 8890 Oct

which is better in cellular signal reception of S7E snapdragon 820 model or Exynos 8890 Oct
any testers please
You'd have to test both devices with a specific carrier in a specific area at a specific time.

Snapdragon chipsets usually ship with better basebands but the one that comes with the Exynos 8890 is really good.
It's really a no brainer thug though as Galaxy S7 Snapdragon variants all are severely restricted in what LTE bands they support (blame carriers), while the SM-930F and SM-935F is currently the phone that supports the most LTE bands in the world (19 bands, including some TDD LTE bands) so if you travel outside the U.S., plan on changing carriers, or want something that's future proof, the international version is the way to go.

My Snapdragon variant gets good reception, even in areas where I normally get bad reception.

Which SM-G935F version to buy on eBay?

I'm in the US. How does one pick the "best" version of the SM-G935F from the tons of eBay sellers?
For example, this version lists the CPU as "Quad-core 2.3 GHz Cortex-A53 + quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A53", while this other version lists it as "Dual-core 2.15 GHz Kryo & dual-core 1.6 GHz Kryo".
Both spec sheets appear copied from GSMArea some time ago (one of them still lists the phone as "Coming soon"). Many other listings list both Exynos and SnapDragon for the chipset.
When eBay sellers don't give much **** on what exactly phones they sell, and don't bother responding to questions, how do you ensure you get the phone you want, and which version of the phone is that?
If it's Global version, it should be Exynos.
935F is the global version with exynos processor.

My question was about the dual-core vs. quad-core.
Just look at the model number. SM-G935F is Exynos Octa-Core. I wouldn't buy or trust a seller that lists the processor differently.

That's what I'm puzzled by: a bunch of eBay sellers have copy/pasted some spec sheet that looks like this:
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge SM-G935F (FACTORY UNLOCKED) 5.5" QHD, 32GB
PLATFORM OS Android OS, v6.0 (Marshmallow)
Chipset Exynos 8890 Octa
CPU Dual-core 2.15 GHz Kryo & dual-core 1.6 GHz Kryo
GPU Adreno 530
One of those sellers is never-msrp, which I've seen recommended here on the forum.

Yeah that's wrong, it should be:
CPU Quad-core 2.3 GHz Mongoose + quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A53
GPU Mali-T880 MP12
Don't pay attention to those spec sheets, just make sure it's G935F.

Maybe a fake too be careful.... All the F models are 64 bit Octacore
Shouldn't matter which one you buy you can flash any region firmware on it

Thanks. If I look for a snapdragon single sim, will I get it? And if yes where?

How many variants of the S8 will there be?

So I know there will be an Exynos and a Snapdragon version. Exynos for EMEA and Snapdragon for North America
Are there any regional variants of the S8 ?
I'll prefer to buy the dual SIM unlocked version with Exynos
Something that works in Europe, US and India.
What do you think would be the best version ?
Both phones are also going to have a special "Microsoft" edition. Don't know the soc though.
