Does Samsung not honor warranty on international version in the states?

*Edit* after doing some research I think I found that they don't. Some "international" huh?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shadow65781:
Exactly why I like it. Minimalistic, middle of the road, just like me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
It still means a largely unsupported derpbeast that is difficult to work with.

I believe Squaretrade is the answer for imports - I wish Samsung would offer warranty support for international unlocked devices in the US.

The I777 is likely to be my last carrier-mangled device. I'm probably going to switch to Straight Talk at the end of my contract - even with a 25% service discount on AT&T, I'll save over $20/month on ST especially considering I likely won't ever use my subsidy again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] skatcat31:
The official word I got from Samsung is that the specs for the USA ATT SG3 haven't actually been confirmed yet, so there's some small hope.(small.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Koizuma:
After going in and playing with the ATT HTC One X, im gonna have to say im fairly impressed with it, the S4 is a snappy little thing for being a dual core, and the phone just felt great in the hand. So looks like imma be getting the One X at the end of the month when i can actually have an upgrade on my line.

Yeah I was messing around with one at AT&T....real nice device....and it just so happens my wife says we need to add a line for her cupcake business .....I thought she was messing with me....so now I don't even have to buy one outright.....I am in.

killing is my business, And business is good.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:

Yes but the dual core in the HTC One X is on par with the Quad core/if not better performance wise.

How the hell is the hardware better?..... This has been discussed on every forum and review....You seem to be the only one who's stating this as fact.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
Oh I know, I keep all my music ln my sd. I would have no problem using the cloud if Poweramp could connect to Google play music, and if I had lte to make it fast enough. my data is pretty slow so until then I need at least 16 gb just for music. Which is why I bought my 32 gig microsd

Meh I wasn't impressed by the body style and especially the buttons. Some of the software features are nice but some of them at the same time are not very useful/gimmicky.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] howtomen:
Cpu better

gpu slightly better

Camera: to be determined

Screen: amoled has better colors and many habe called it a superiour.screen

Dac(audio quality): loads better

Battery:better

Ffc:better

How is it not better? Is the question.

Dont say looks cuz thats personal preference.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shadow65781:
Not true friend, I want a redhead, a blonde., and a brunette, but the brunette keeps running off all the blondes and redheads ;-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Koizuma:
cpu: how can u say the cpu is better when its been benched, and is on par with the quad and in some tests out performed the quad? and keep in mind the s3 hasnt even been released into the states yet, and if ATT gets it it will probably get the S4 as well.

gpu: maybe, but between the 2 its fairly close.

camera: at this point you can only speculate, but the One X has a pretty nice camera setup

screen, once again speculation, since theres not a US version, but once again i think the HTC screen is pretty nice

DAC: more speculation there.

battery: sure S3 wins on that, since its the 2100mah iirc but heres the thing on that, since theres different setups, the One X battery could outlast the S3 battery just as well as the S3 battery outlasting the One X battery it all really comes down to the battery management.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tylerdurdin:
What are you comparing? International versions? If so that is irrelevant to me... Wouldn't waste 700 on a phone with a very limited warranty especially on a Samsung phone. Also that penile display that you think looks fine is not out classing the OneX..... That my friend is YOUR preference..

Battery.... How are you making battery arguments.... So bigger equals better? Maybe after you shut down the six million NEW running services it will be okay... I predict it will not be any better than Samsung phones ever been..... Like it's been said a million times.... Battery is going to vary from user to user. The international is nice... Love exynos.... US version ain't better than the OneX.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bormasina:
0.02$

I apologize for jumping in here, but here are my thoughts on Krait/HOX/SGSIII--Exynos/SGSIII (and based on Anandtech; for some it may be old news ...)

Do not forget that Krait is custom A15 core, not A9, so probably is going to be very close to Exynos 4 quad overall or if not better in some scenarios, and i think that Exynos will be better in highly threaded apps, if there are any, but Krait should be pulling ahead in single threaded apps. So, in short, SGSIII with Krait should not look bad at all ...

My view on the screen in HOX ... I know that in theory the OLED technology should outperform the LCD ... As of now, i think that OLED tech has not been perfected yet (burn in problems, blobs, banding, tinting ...) and i tend to stay away from OLED screens, if possible ... LCD tech instead, i think is mature enough, and produces almost perfectly performing panels ... Maybe this is the reason why i like the HOX screen more ... On top of that, there are some websites that speculate that S-LCD2 in HOX is indeed IPS panel ...

In my eyes, SGSIII design doen't look bad at all, but still not good enough to top HOX ... I guess i'll wait and see how SGSIII feels in hand, and if ATT don't terrorize/alter the design badly, i may buy SGSIII ...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tylerdurdin:
I realize reviews are just an individuals perspective but when everyone is saying roughly the same thing....there has to be an air of truth...its not ALL bad...these are just not the reviews we are used to for Samsung flagships. Its a small Note with a few new gimmicks.

So you bought into that whole 4core > 2core deal eh? Well enjoy spending $600 for another 2 cores that wont be used 90% of the time... but hey, you get to tell your friends how cool it is to have 4 cores.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
Your game probably runs on 1 thread, 2 max. I have no idea how many threads android games can use, but most modern PC games can only use two threads, with a few exceptions. Typically you have your main thread, and you can offload sound and/or physics processing onto another core, but you're still going to be limited by how fast you can process your main thread. Because of this, a dual core at even slightly higher clocks will often outperform a quad in games. On the GS3, you have a choice between massively-faster 2 cores, or 4 cores.

The international will have a faster GPU, but the US will have vaaaastly better performance in applications that can use 1 or 2 threads (=almost all apps). If you game primarily, the quad CPU is not why you would want the international.

Bad car analogy: 4 wheel drive is always better than 2 wheel drive, right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] silver91342:
Not sure of how android UI runs but wouldn't the system UI and certain app's (hardware acceleration) benefit from a faster GPU? and Iam hoping Samsung might use the MSM8960 Pro with the 320 GPU vs. 225 in the HTC just out spec them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] trell959:
The phone was designed by lawyers to avoid patent violations with Apple. That's why this one doesn't have the "classic" home button.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
Yes, some would. Others will run faster on the Snapdragon. I can't say one's better than the other as far as performance, but I'll take the dual core in part because it offers competitive performance with better battery life.

How to Root: ( from another site)

- First enable Unknown sources on your phone (Settings -> Applications -> Unknown sources)

- Download the Universal_GB_ROOT_v9.zip file and put in your SD card.

- After transferring your file on your phone disable the USB by pressing "Disconnect storage from PC" after that remove the USB cable and turn off your phone "Power off".

- Make shure you start the phone like this : Long press and hold the (Power Button) + (Home Button) ( if not work you must use Power and Volume+ )

- After couple of seconds you will see your phone booting in recovery mode

- Move in the menu with the Volume - Volume + to scroll up and down and choose "apply update from sdcard" and go directly to the folder that you already created Applications insert in the folder with the Home button and choose the Universal_GB_ROOT_v9.zip and press once again the Home button to apply it.

- You will see a message "Install form sdcard complete".

- Then press on the "reboot system now" and you are done.

Download link for Universal Gingerbread Root (by StoneBoyTony) :

after that make (*note from me *when needed )unlock with z3x again.

Thats all
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] hanes1969:
Very easy and very usefull.

This small device S5363 can hardly be used as a phone, but it is very cheap inteligent MP3 player, emergency GPS device etc ...

SD Card is easily accessible, it is not bellow battery so you can change it without switching phone off.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] JasoX:
I disagree, it is a capable phone and the sound quality crisp and clear. I rather minimize the use of GPS . And gaming, forget about it. But a all round good device for what it is. Plus for Samsung not locking up the recovery.

I'll try the root solution when I get my phone back from repair.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] hanes1969:
I prefer device with bigger screen as a phone.

I bought this Samsung from my carrier for $0.10 and my son was using it over a year. Now he got new phone so I rooted it to have more memory for apps. Now I use it mainly as MP3 player and sometimes as spare GPS when my primary device is depleted.

I agree it has good sound, that is why I decided to use it as MP3 player :) instead of dropping it to trash.

[General Topics] mohsinraza:
The flagship of Samsung is now up and whoa! That is some latest piece of tech.

Specifications:

Samsung Galaxy SIII:

4.8" 720p SUPER AMOLED (pentile) Display.

1.4 GHz Quad Core.

8MP rear / 1.9MP front camera.

2100 mAh battery

16/32GB storage (64 coming soon) with sd card slot.

ICS with Touchwiz 4.0

HTC ONE X:

4.7" 720p Super LCD2 Display.

1.5 GHz Quad core.

8MP rear / 1.3MP front camera.

1800mAh battery.

32GB internal storage with no SD Card slot.

ICS with HTC Sense 4.0

My Opinion:

Well, specs ain't the only thing. The overall performance, feel in hand and overall experience of the phone really counts. I don't think it's a big leap forward as we already know HTC ONE X is a beast in itself.

I prefer HOX because I don't like touchwiz UI of Samsung and the build quality is better in HTC ofcourse.

Many people will go against me and that's how it goes in the world.

* Sense 4.0 is better than touchwiz.

* ImageSense is better than SIII camera.

* 1.5 GHz quad core (penta core to be precise) is better than 1.4 GHz Quad Core.

* The shape is actually better than SIII. Didn't like the shape of SIII. The shape is a serious letdown for me.

*I'll vote for One X against SIII*

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Buy the one you like. Vote for the one you admire. This sort of competition is good for the new technology. And at the end of the day THE BEST phone is one which is in your hands.

Enjoy your phone. Enjoy the talks.

Like THIS for a compliment.

Would love to listen from you people.
[General Topics] madquack:
Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. Have you owned both devices personally yet? Until you've had both side by side doing the same exact things then there is no way to properly determined.which is superior. Benchmarks are worthless. Seems you're already on Team HTC's bandwagon so you're mind is made up. There will be a billion GS3 posts on XDA and they will all won't be worth a ****.
[General Topics] mohsinraza:
Yeah benchmarks are useless. That's why I didn't bring them into discussion.

I'm comparing the SPECS ONLY and there you see One X smashes SGSIII.

SGIII is built of polycarbonate as well but coated a sort of plastic layer (don't remember the name exactly) and that's ridiculous.

The bright shiny 720p SUPER LCD2 outclasses Pentile 720p Super Amoled.
