No. All LTE tablets are data only, with no cellular capability.
The 3G version of the 8.4 S in India apears to make calls since it has the speaker at the top for the ear.

Hi. I just received my UK version (SM-T705) and yes this variant can make calls.
The LTE SM-T705 is just like an oversize phone

Where did you get the LTE version. This exynos chip seems a little slower than the snapdragon chip.

It works great, but only shows 3G for AT&T, no 4G as it shows when it's on T-Mobile sort of 3G/4G network..
Actually quite honestly, I don't see much difference in 4G/3G difference is there when we go to LTE

No teh radio on the att version has the T-Mobile bands replaced with the lte bands so T-Mobile on a att gs3 will only werk on edge...

Are there any differences? Is the model number of the t-mobile note2 N7100 or not? Thanks guys!
Both devices have the same exact hardware EXCEPT for the following;
the note 2 n7100 (international) has an FM Radio in-built and has only 3G speeds (No LTE Radio built in)
- it is also unlocked, however, no manufacturer warranty if you are buying in the US
the tmobile note 2 (SGH-T889) is carrier locked (can be unlocked for free)
- has a US warranty
- Has LTE but no FM radio
- Carrier-software modifications; T-Mobile today made available a new firmware which allows multi-view (previously disabled)

Thanks for the quick reply. A question though, would the LTE work on countries outside the US? And would i be able to receive future updates too if I am going to use it outside the US?
Correct me if I'm wrong, the inductive charging is also disabled by hardware on the T-Mobile variant. Basically Samsung didn't connect a wire. Lol

LTE would work depending whether or not that country has the same 4G LTE bands like the US. You will be able to receive future updates too if you are going to use it outside the US.

As mentioned in title there is a new feature out that can be read about here > HD Voice News
I'm wondering if anyone knows whether it works for Note II as well. They only list 3 phones on the story, however it doesn't explicitly exclude other phones. Just curious.
I was wondering that myself, my coworker had me call his friend that was on a Nexus 4 and the call seemed to be very clear, but I couldn't tell whether it was "HD Voice" or not since there is no indication of it on either of our phones.
We have the required chip, but I don't think the required settings in the firmware are active.

Did some research found this quote "The new SKU will apparently launch before the network goes live with the LTE radios disabled, but once the towers are up and delivering the juice T-Mobile will issue a software upgrade to enable them. Those who bought the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 may not need a new phone, though, as that phone did come with the dormant LTE radios during its first run. We imagine T-Mobile will issue a similar software upgrade for it":laugh:

If the GS3 can do it then we can do it. It just needs a patch for the firmware to use it. Which will probably come out when we have our LTE radios turned on.
What does it have to do with LTE getting switched on. Current GS3 doesnt even have an LTE radio.

It doesn't directly but when they patch our phone to turn on LTE they will probably enable hd voice also. Radio has nothing to do with HD voice. HD voice is dependent on the sound codec on our phone, but it makes sense to do it when you are already patching the system.
I expect the exynos security patch and maybe even 4.2 before LTE.

Well I expect LTE very soon. What would be the point of turning on LTE in Vegas if you have no phones that support it. They plan to do it in the next couple of weeks.

Well I can be the optimist and you can be the pessimist. I don't see the point of rolling out two or three software updates in a one year when they can address it all in one big update. The international note 2 doesn't even have 4.2 yet. I bet we see 412 with HD Voice and LTE radio enabled first.
Yup - we'll see. Btw, battery life might take a hit if the LTE radio is switched on. We might not want it on too soon.

My friend has an AT&T Note 2 in an LTE market and he still gets about 16 hours of regular use. I get about 16 - 18 with regular use so we will see. LTE radios have gotten better at using batteries. I remember that the first killed batteries like they were going out of style.
The other piece I wondering about is what happens when the LTE radio is activated in a non-LTE market. Does it go searching for signal in some way like the regular cell radio in a poor signal area. That is murder on the battery.

Good question. I am sure they will put a toggle to turn it on and off. How does the Note2 LTE and GS3 LTE handle it, I wonder.

I have a SM-P601 (3G); it's my third 3G Samsung tablet. They are pretty much the same as the Wi-Fi models their based on. They have a GSM radio and additional antenna that the Wi-Fi models don't. They also have a dialer and MMS app and are in fact "giant phones." Because of the phone feature additional functions are activated within various apps (EG: share via MMS, and call). Other than that they are identical.
If you are importing one from another selling region there can be some funkiness with the apps that are preloaded. For example I had to side load Samsung Hub and can't use Samsung Music because I'm using a Latin American N10.1-14 in the U.S. The same applies to any other apps that third party developers place a region restriction on.
No, they are not identical. The wifi version has a different processor than the 3G and LTE versions.
Like said above just processor is different. Wife use exynos and the rest have snapdragon. That's only difference.

As did I. Sorry to confuse the op.
in terms of rooting which version should I purchase? I heard that the USA version has a locked bootloader which means it is not rootable correct? Is it impossible to unlock the bootloader unless Samsung does something or..? I would assume that since people are going so far as to refund their phones instead of waiting for an unlocker to be released if that is even possible.
I'm waiting to buy international version of phone with Xynos Chip and no AT&T bloatware. We will probably get better battery life and faster updates. We will lose HD and Wifi calling but no biggie IMHO.

Having done development work in this field, I feel obligated to tell you that's not exactly true. Hd voice consists of two voice codecs - AMR Wideband, and AMR narrowband. These codecs do not explicitly require VoLTE to function. In fact, you can make "HD Voice" calls over 4G HSPA/HSPA+ using the narrowband version of the codec.

Yeah everyone dumbs down their definitions for the general public.
Basically, telephony in general has always had an 8khz spectrum width for audio. This was manly due to the fact it's small and low bandwidth. With the advent of 3.5g (hspa/hspa+ and lte) bandwidth is drastically increased. This allows for a doubled (16khz) spectrum width as there's plenty of bandwidth for it.

For AT&T and Verizon, correct. T-Mobile uses HD Voice over their 3G network, and you get better sounding calls when talking to another T-Mobile subscriber (I understand they will eventually bridge HD Voice to other carriers). VoLTE for T-Mobile (Advanced Calling for VZW) allows you to keep your LTE signal while on a call, as opposed to dropping down to 3G.

The Phone may be region locked. Mine (South East Asia) came with a card that says, the Phone needs to be using SEA sim card for the first boot up.

I'm in the same boat, $789 seems lucrative, but no warranty so not sure should take that risk or not. I'm waiting for B&H to go on sale at least they provide their own 1 year warranty.
