Thanks to Petard for making the survey.
Browsed some German forums. Seems like the dust issue is less widespread. Perhaps it's a bigger problem for North American versions?
I think all the NL920 are Made in China

I heard some are made in Mexico and Korea. Is that not true?
As far as I know, all 920s are made in China. 900 was made in Korea though, I think this is where most people confuse origin of manufacture.

That's what I thought too, but...check this out. That's clearly not Chinese. Unless there's a Mexican population in China that I don't know of, I think some might be produced in Mexico.

Dual SIM with Exynos processor? I wonder if this supports LTE and how much it will cost compared to the single SIM Mega. It also has only 1GB of RAM.
Even if it's true, it's probably a special cheaper version just for China and will probably only support their CDMA network..

The dual SIM Mega 5.8 with LTE (EDIT: it has no LTE) is available in the UK so I think it's not far off from being available globally unless the Exynos chipset prevents it from supporting global radio bands.
The Mega 5.8 by design supports two sim cards, the Mega 6.3 doesn't - neither of it's two versions. Samsung has in the past made special dual sim versions of its phones specifically for the Chinese market, so my guess that this might be it.
Ok, the SCH-P729 model number does seem to stand for a dual SIM CDMA phone/tablet, not a GSM.

Yesterday (29Jul2013) I bought the Mega 5.8 DUOS (GT-I9152) in Lagos, Nigeria, for the equivalent of US$380, including Samsung's special 2-year warranty for Nigeria which includes two replacements of the display if broken! By the way, when a Samsung executive was launching the Note 2 in South Africa some months back, he remarked that 50% of the first 10m Note 1 sold were sold in Africa!

I wonder how many of you got the new Huawei and what extras you got. I got a package that includes a Huawei GT watch
I also got the watch. Some markets are getting the watch and the wireless charger.
And some markets are getting nothing

What market are you in? They are going to give away a Sonos speaker depending on where you live.
That's what we get in the Middle East.
In the UK from O2 I didn't get anything straight up. I can claim a free Sonos One Gen 2 speaker in a few weeks though. Plus I got an additional £100 on top of my trade in for my old phone. It's £240 to buy new and O2 gave me £175 for it!
No watch or charger but I'm reasonably happy with what I got.

I live in Peru. Here they give you a free watch if you buy they p30 or p30 pro
As above, free SONOS Play speaker - to be claimed from Huawei - once you've had the phone for 14 days (as that's the return period here in the UK)
Croatia. Got nothing.
Netherlands :sonos speaker and wireless charger
Hi, in Denmark we got a watch, which you had to claim at Huawei, with the P30 pro.
They give these freebies in Malaysia. Wireless charging case is only for P30. We literally had to queue to secure the backup storage as it is only limited to the first 800 customers ? Btw the contents of the premium box are car supercharger, travel adapter and an extra cable for supercharge

Hi guys,
It's my humble opinion that the Honor 20 Pro is the best price/performance flagship out there at the moment. Is there any major drawbacks to why I should not order it (or why it's not so popular in general)?
I live in Sweden and I'm thinking of order this one:

Just bought this phone. After few days of usage I cannot think any major drawbacks. Phone is bit heavy, screen is ips (doesn't bother me). For the price this is a great phone.
I bought it from Finnish operator for 499€
Hi, be careful to order "asia version" Honor 20 Pro, I found that there is no support for FDD-LTE B20 (800MHz). I don't know if this is also important in Sweden as in our country (Czech Rep.), but I suppose so.
I'll order this phone also, soon, but here in CR, price is fair (appr. 500 euro), including 2year warranty, without these problems ..
Also if ordering from China to Sweden you most probably have pay taxes and possible custom fees. Operators.
So far so good :] .. After I installed Nova Launcher in phone, I finally have "my android" as I like to have, no problems so far .. I like this phone! :]
I chose this model among Mate 20 Pro and LG G8S, the price was the same ..

I just ordered this one from https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07TXJPR76/ref=pe_3044161_189395811_TE_SCE_dp_2. and was shipped by Amazon yersterday.
Do you thint it will support our networks in SVK, CZE, AU etc? I didnt chceck any model-numbers like sansibar did (https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-20-pro/development/model-versions-t3967321)
Where can I check the model-number of this phone as i didnt find it in the description? Hope the German version will be fine for me...
Thanks for Your reply,
Peter
Hi, it's hard to say, from which distribution is this H20Pro selled on Amazon .. I can only confirm that phone ordered in CR (Alza) is without any problems with Czech LTE bands (incl. VoLTE). This is a screen from my phone, model YAL-L41.

Thanks for your reply. I hope this one will support Slovak Orange, because they are offering it as German version, so I think that the Item model number: 51093VEX (from the description will be) will handle with our network or Central European networks.

I saw that the Asian version costs a ridiculous price, 50-100 dollars. What should be changed as internal components to make it "internationalize". It would be interesting, if there was only to change the antenna internal and update the firmware with EU firmware. But I think it's also a level of motherboard components that houses RF components ..
In itself it is a great cell phone. The side release is spectacular. I'm not a fan of displays with fingerprint release. Certainly if I were left-handed I'd turn up my nose. But I find the lateral release is more immediate, good honor.
I like everything except the display. The bad luck wants them to have mounted an ips. With obvious increases in consumption, but generally it seems to behave well. If it were amoled or oled it would behave better in consumption.
Keep in mind that if it follows huawei, huawei does not make global phones. The only ones are iphone, oneplus, and mr google. (although zte with axon 10 pro, and some versions of mi9 are well supplied with bands but not all bands..). Huawei for the p30 have a version dedicated to Canada for example (because there they have extra bands LTE). But if we go to see the level SAR of the phones: oneplus, iphone and mr.google have sar high. Samsung keeps it low, it makes N-versions of their phones. The US of Samsung normally with Snapdragon version works in the EU, but not the other way around.

If you have any friends or relatives at UAE, try getting it through them. I requested One of my friend at Fujairah, UAE to order a Sony Xperia 1 iii (Dual SIM, SIM Free, 12 GB RAM, 256 GB Storage, Black) from Amazon UAE (amazon ae) website for me. Even though it is not available in UAE, we got an Amazon Prime Product Listing in which Amazon UK Seller was providing International Shipping to UAE. Total Amount came up to around ₹ 92 K (Phone ₹ 85 K, Shipping and Handling ₹ 827, Import Fees Deposit ₹ 6 K). Ordered on 13 March 22 and got it delivered on 17 March 22. Genuine Product from Sony UK, came in a sealed pack, unscathed. Unboxed and confirmed that everything is fine. He will be back by this month end. Eagerly waiting to take over the dream machine.

Hi Hazzay ...
Am using Airtel & Jio SIMs, the major 4G players in India. VoLTE and WiFi Calling is working fluently in mY Sony Xperia 1 III (XQ-BC52).
VoLTE in Action
Initially i searched for VoLTE option in the settings but could not find it. I was like OMG. 4G Calling came to my rescue.
Jio 4G LTE with VoLTE enabled, in Action.
Airtel 4G LTE with VoLTE enabled, in Action.
WiFi Calling.
Took over the Phone from my friend on the 1st week of April. Sorry for the much delayed reply, was busy with my professional commitments.
Ohh wooow.
Did you have to do anything to get it working?
First time ordering different color than black. Ordered S23U 1TB (Red)
yeah, I am a black fan
I am thinking 1tb as well, but not completely sold on it just yet.
I think I will miss the dual physical sim/mem slot and the 3.5mm jack.
Did you get any other accessories with it with the 250 "credit"?
I was thinking the 44mm watch... but i dont think they let you have the "pro" version their do they?

Pro is not in the option if I remove correctly. I would have used for watch but I already have Pro. You can use it from Power brick, Cases, wireless charging pads. I only need Quad Lock case (not available), as my car and motorbike both equipped with Quad Lock wireless chargers. Also, I ordered Spigen Ultra Thin case separately for time being until Quad Lock cases are available.
I would love to see native call recording for Australia though
Already got the shipping details. That was quick...
This year, I went with the 512GB in Lavender.
Already got shipping notice from Aus Post and my Samsung account shows my order has shipped.

I recently got my S23 Ultra 512GB. But it dose not have Dual Physical SIM , But it has two distinct IMEI numbers , so i guess dual sim is disabled. Is there any way to unlock this feature and replace the sim tray with dual simtray.

Australian models support one physical SIM and one eSIM which is in a way dual SIM
