I am korean living here in Austraila and my suggest is not to buy it as Korean version of galaxy note is carrier locked !!. They don't have UNLOCKED version at all.
So, don't waste your money and buy international version of note .
Mustang2012, oke i wont buy the korean model but is it possible to buy the international version sim free in korea or they wont even have that model ?
after reading and watching the "screen issue" on the galaxy note i have decided to not buy the device.

Hi i live i pakistan which is located in Asia
I bought my galaxy note few weeks ago
Here in pakistan there are almost 5 carriers or network providers(sim)
And i cam go to any shop in pakistan buy a note and put any simcard in it and use the device. And thats exactly what i did.
after researching about the unit i own I found out i own a galaxy note gt7000 which is made in italy(europe) and runs 2.3.6 ITV something ginger bread out of the box
So my question is will i be getting the ics depending on my geographical location which is pakistan(asia)
OR
Will i get the update when its been released in italy throigh OTA or KIES?
Remember i can use any simcard for my note so i dont think theres a carrier issue here. Common sense says i wud get it wen its released in italy but i still want confirmation plzz
And wen will ics be coming to italyyyyy? ??

Looks like we are playing the waiting game in different parts of the world

Hi guys
I have a Korean version Galaxy Note and they come locked when purchase it and use a particular phone provider here in South Korea
Is there anyway to unlock this phone? I know the Korean Note is a bit different than the international models
Thanks!
Anyone?
Hi guys,
Recently, I purchased an Unlocked Galaxy Note N7000 at J&R NYC. As there is no unlocked U.S. Model, the O.S. that came was Chinese or Korean. I checked the label behind the battery and I concluded the model was from some Asian country. Ok, after some time the screen along with the digitizer broke and I had to purchase a new one (as Samsung Brazil don't fix models from other countries not even paying for the repair).
I purchased one officially from Brazil that is also a Galaxy Note N7000.
I feel it strange though. I seems slower, the screen sometimes lags when scrolling and I don't remember this lag from my previous one.
The question is, can they have different hardware ? Both are N7000, one from China/Korean and the other from Brazil.
Thank you and best regards,
Amid
I can't say for certain, but I know there are different versions of the firmware for each region which could account for the differences you are observing, at least in part.
If they're both N7000 model than they have the same hardware ( unless one of them is a fake, which i'm sure it is not ). Any differences might be caused by firmware though. You'd have to flash the same stock or custom rom on both of them and then check.
Thank you guys. So, this also implies that the digitizer is the same for both so if I can purchase one digitizer from Samsung Brazil it will work in the other one, correct ?

Hello Guys, let anybody know where i can buy the Note 5 for use in Germany? And which Version? SM-N920..?
Thanks
There won't be Galaxy Note 5 for Germany and rest of Europe.
We already know that so, well most of us.
its unfortunate tho..
Maybe the OP wants to know if there are different versions (e.g. with different LTE bands) or region locks and if he has to look for a special version if he wants to import it?
I want to import the note 5. And i search seller where i can buy. But i dont know which Version.
I Know sm-n920a (AT&T) Has the same lte Bands. Verizon not. And also the language Support... AT ebay i found the note 5 in seoul korea
I don-t understand you.
Samsung is saying you-re less of a person than any other person in the world . They are not interested in your money and it has no worth to them and youre running off to give it to them anyway ?
German logic must be like German humour.
No one gets it .

There is a lock region on the device, you cannot import/export Samsung Phones.
YOu can use the N920i Version (Singapur). It hasn't the region lock and it works with all sim cards.
The South Korean electronics giant hasn't confirmed the release date of the upcoming Note device but it is almost certain that it will be unveiled at the "Unpacked 2015" event to be held at Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center, New York City, on 13 August.In a shock move, Samsung has announced that the Galaxy Note 5 won't be coming to the UK this year, blaming the lack of release on "marketing reasons."
You need n920A for full compatibility
Hi guys, I bought a galaxy s10 LTE model in South Korea (SM-G973N) and realized I can not use Samsung Pay with my phone because I live in Canada and the phone would only take Korean credit cards due to different korean/international whatever credit card standard (((
I've been a iphone user for years so apple pay always worked. It sucks samsung pay wont work on my phone but we have android OS which means yall super duper cool dudes can fix stuffs haha.
So I am seeking for help if there is any way to use international Samsung pay on South Korean Galaxy S10 device (SM-G973N)
If there is play explain it to me nice and slowly cause im noob. Thank you guys!!! )
As long as it is the same model as in you can NOT install an exynos software onto qualcomm hardware
It is already exynos hardware and also software as well.
I just wanna use International Samsung Pay App instead of Korean Samsung Pay on my phone :/
on my note 9 which was a korean variant but has exynos too, I flashed roms based on F/DS exynos and it worked perfectly along w magisk. not sure on the s10 tho.

yes you can, but as said above stick with exynos based firmware. youre also going to likely need the patched version of Odin to flash the unbranded firmware so the 255 errors wont cause Odin to fail
Same problem here, for me its the USA s10 cannot use Samsung pay in Vietnam
