There are many different variants of the Galaxy S6 edge. Why are there only subcategories for the US variants?
Here's a list that I could find. I think there may be more too...
SM-G9250 (China, HK)
SM-G925A (AT&T)
SM-G925F (Global)
SM-G925FQ (Turkey)
SM-G925I (LATAM, Singapore, India, Australia)
SM-G925K, SM-G925L, SM-G925S (Korea)
SM-G925P (Sprint)
SM-G925T (T-Mobile)
SM-G925W8 (Canada)
It would be better to be categorized according to Model number rather than careere.
probably because this is an English speaking, USA based forum
you forgot g925v.. verizon... probably the largest US carrier lol

SM-G925R is the Us Cellular variant. Ik there aren't nearly as many USC users as the big 4 but their worth mentioning since they're completely unlocked.

Since JB Online LLC purchased it on January 10, 2010 (source). Before that, I believe it was Dutch owned.

So the Pirate Bay being hosted in Sweden means it should be in Swedish and only cater to Swedish users? Location of the server and language aren't relevant, the users make a social site like xda and the question above is a valid one if it's deemed that a large proportion of S6 users have a non-US variant.
In agreement that subcategories should by according to the model, or at least extend to international carriers....

I never said anything about only "catering" to any body; if thats your perception, than its your error

I do not think G925F is global necessarily. It's for Europe... I found out G9250 has the most comprehensive list of supported 3g, LTE bands.

Hi all.I'm in the UK with the Samsung galaxy s3.and Orange/t~ mobile are advertising working 4g towards the end of the year.
Now I'm wondering is our s3 going to work on 4g ?
I've googled this and some sites say yes and others say no ?
Thanks in advance....

No, the GT-I9300 model does not and will not support 4G. This is the reason why the US Variants use a different SoC, as it has an inbuilt support for 4G, while the Exynos SoC does not.
4g is an absolute battery killer from what I can gather anyway, so not really bothered, do most of my downloading at home or over openzone
I reckon a Korean version would still give you the superior Exynos SOC, 2GB RAM and LTE/4G. I'm looking for somewhere to buy them. AFAIK Korean Telecomms use the same radio spectrum as we do.
The LTE version will soon be available in Germany,
Contact Orange in UK!!!!!!

Yes that would work, although I would contact orange and see if they would comment on this, although try to make sure it would go through to someone in the UK not someone in India who is reading from a script!
If you do buy it from Korea be careful with ROM's and don't forget about import tax! :laugh:
Hi there.
I would like to ask wether the internationl/UK '3G' version of the Galaxy S3 (GT-i9300 i think) is compatible with the newer DC-HSPA+ (or DC-HSDPA+) band standard?
Please advice. Thanks.
What "new" standard?
What country are you in? What carrier?
I get HSPA and HSPA+ on my gt-i9300

DC-HSPA+. Double speed compared to regular HSPA+ at the same MIMO settings.
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda app-developers app
DC-HSPA is only compatible with the LTE version of the international model, (I9305) the I9300 is not compatible.
I'm with T-mobile UK with a "standard" Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) model.
I heard Three UK's DC-HSDPA is twice better than that of T-mobile's or Orange's and (in my opinion) could be a cheaper/better bridge towards a future LTE handset upgrade.
WOuld you agree?
Shall i get the S3 LTE (GT-I9305) which is DC-HSDPA enabled on a contract or get the latest S4 bearing in mind Samsung has a habit of releasing "updated" versions of their Galaxy S phones mid-life.
I'm in the us air force in korea and my nexus 5 just broke. I'm looking at the g2 and need some help determining which model will work best in both Korea and the USA.
The At&t model or the T-Mobile model?

Based on info from these two places i would go tmob as it supports a 4g band that is supported in south korea and at&t does not, but i couldnt say as far as contracts were concerned.

Same. No issues with it, AFAIK. Also thanks for making me check, I figured it was just made in China!
US Unlocked, G965U1, Korea
Sprint S9+ made in Vietnam
So far we see made in Korea, China, and Vietnam.
Only the U.S. unlocked version is made in Korea, and some U.S. unlocked are made in China.
All carrier and international versions are either made in China or Vietnam.
Any VZW version owners?

I would love to get conclusive information about what handsets (single or dual, Exynos or SnapDragon) are affected and where they are manufactured. The problem is, unless people go looking for this particular problem, they may never know its there and its hard to get people to pin down their model details when reporting the issue. I suspected perhaps it was only Exynos models that were affected, but I'm sure we've had SnapDragon model owners post that they have the issue in the main black crush thread.

The UK is a part of Europe. Just because they are not a part of the European Union doesn't mean they aren't a part of the European continent.
