Hi there
I did a lot of research, but I'm still stuck and would love some help.
Obviously there are 3 models of the Oneplus 3
- Europe / Asia
- China
- North America
They all have model numbers, for example, the users in America got the A3000 model, the users in Europe the A3003 model. So far it's easy.
My problem:
I'm from Switzerland and we can't buy the Oneplus 3 from official channels. So I have to import it.
But right now, I'm in Thailand for a while and could buy one here.
The best option would obviously be the European model because it supports all 3 LTE bands from my carrier. The China version would at least support 2 out of 3 and the model for North America only 1 out of 3.
So I would like to avoid the model for North America.
And here starts my confusion. The sellers in Thailand sell the A3000 model but they don't know (and probably don't care) if it's the version for North America or the China version.
I could take a picture of the sticker of the back of the box. It would be great if someone with the North America model could compare the sticker to their sticker (do you also have most of it written in Chinese? Or does it looke completely differen or even the same?).
One seller told me that his model had HydrogenOS on it and he flashed OxygenOS, so that would be the China model I guess, but he was out of stock. The other seller (the one I could take the picture of) said that he bought it already with OxygenOS on it, and that is what makes me wonder if it could be the North America model.
Thank you so much for every hint!
Chinese and North American models are both A3000. I guess that's why in the official page of OP they name them by country/region.

Sorry if my english is not perfect.

Ok thanks , so I would like to know if the A3000 i posted in the picture is the China model or the one for North America.
And why the seller tells me that there already is OxygenOS on it (if it really is the chinese model).

I would say that is the Chinese version because of all the Chinese text and it also says A3000 TD-LTE. Only the Chinese version has TD LTE bands as seen at https://oneplus.net/uk/3/specs.
The Chinese version comes by default installed with Hydrogen OS instead of Oxygen OS but many Chinese exporters open the box and flash Oxygen OS so that is what he is telling you.

that's a great hint with TD LTE, thanks!
The european version say "ONEPLUS A3003" in the "about" section. I'll descript the label on my box tonight if you need to.
Thank you Le_Zouave but I think it's not neccessary. It says A3000 even in the about section. So it's either the China or North America model
You have the Chinese model... Great model
It was Chinese Model. Mine also exactly the same with yours.
All of the text on my NA model is in english and lists 2 IMEIs. Don't know why ur photo only list 1.
that IMEI thing is strange. I searched for more pictures here in Thailand (and will add some to this answer) but I couldn't find anywhere a second IMEI. There is an MEID printed on the back, but that is normally used in North America with CDMA phones.
I read on the oneplus forum that with the Oneplus 2 the chinese model has printed 2 IMEI but they were both the same number.
Has that something to do with dual active sims or standby sims?
It gets complicated
Hi everyone
I'm waiting for the arrival of my Nova 2 Pic al00 but I have some questions that I don't find the answer so easily....sooooo here I come:
1 - What is the differences between CN version and European version?
2 - What is the differences between International Version and Global version?
3 - I know that the version that I bought will come with International version and with some app from the store...what if I make a reset to the phone....I will lose the Play Store but will get rid of all the app from the store...and after that? Is it easy to get back the phone to work with google apps?
4 - I read that some users prefer to keep the CN version than to make a debranding....Why?
5 - Since I m in Europe, will I get OTA updates for a CN version?
I know that's a lot of questions....SORRY !!
Thanks

there is a third version PIC-LX9 which is a Japan (asia) version http://phonedb.net/index.php?m=device&id=12768&c=huawei_nova_2_wimax_2plus_hwv31_pic-lx9__huawei_picture
as you can see the differences are in the LTE Bands. For exemple in france where i am i need to buy the PIC-L09 or L29 if not i dont have the B20 LTE band

good question ...
At first I looked only for European sellers for the 2 years of guarantee.
Any of those whom I questioned (eBay, amazon, groove inc) none of these sellers was able to certify me that the model which it sold was a "European" model.
So i gave up, ... now I'm waiting for a good deal on P10 (i'm sure that in can get one for about 350 € pretty soon

Hello, I have a warranty issue with one seller so I need to know what is the difference between global and chinese version of redmi 1s?
Global version should have snapdragon processor? Are there other information written on the back on the phone? (everything there is in chinese)
Thank you for your help!
I'm not really sure about this difference.
I'm using the Global version. Most probably, both, the Chinese and Global variants have Qualcomm SD processor.
It'd be good if you'd attach some pics of your phone back and I can compare them with mine. (I recommend you should hide the IMEI number or any other unique number by blurring or doodling to protect privacy and prevent misuse)
P.S. What warranty issue are you talking about? This phone has been discontinued long back. Shouldn't it be out of warranty already?

Was there even a separate and different global vs china version for the Redmi 1s? Just check the label on the box for the 2g/3g bands. It should match the gsmarena specs for the global version.
There is a 4g China only version that uses Mediatek instead of the Snapdragon on the 3G version.
Does anybody have this model? (M1803E7SH)
On Xiaomis Taiwan site (and some other places) the M1803e7SH is listed as having a 12 MP (f/1.9, 1.4µm) camera.
B&H and Amazon.com are selling the same model, but they both list the camera as being a 12MP f2.2, 1.25µm camera.
Did anybody buy this from B&H or Amazon.com? If so, what is the correct spec?

I've only heard chinese taipei, now I understand
Taiwan version and China version have different bands.
Taiwan version has TDD-LTE B38/B40, FDD-LTE B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8/B20/B28
China version has TDD-LTE B34/B38/39/40/41, FDD-LTE B1/3/5/7/8
They both have same f/1.9 rear camera. Maybe Amazon listed the wrong specs?

I'm hoping they listed it wrong.. I'll find out next week..
I received it from amazon.com and can confirm that it has the f1.9 camera.
Hi everyone,
Just received my note 8 pro, ordered on xiaomi france offcial website. I looked at the note 8 pro megathread briefly and some others too.
I haven't even turned my phone on, but i got something on my mind : apparently, there's an indian and a global version. the china or eu versions, even malaysian, are all global versions customized for these locations, but fully compatibles. All these versions have model numbers like "M1906G7*".
What i don't understand, is about the model number MZB8511EU, wich seems to be exclusively for the blue model with 6G + 128G. I found a website listing all variants but it was'nt listed there. When i google this model number, i can only find commercial websites selling this model, always blue with 6 + 128G, and labeled as "EU version". Even on xda, no post is mentionning this model number.
I'm asking cause on the bill xiaomi france gave me on the website, before i received the phone, the model number was MZB8511EU (i ordered the blue one with 6 + 128g), but i received a M1906G7G. I was happy that i'd receive the EU model cause xiaomi france says on it's website it has B7/B20/B28 LTE bands (seems they're french only bands), but i was also scared as no post on xda even contains the model number MZB8511EU, i was afraid i'd get a model no one here has, thus getting higher risks doing wrong things and bricking my phone...
Finally it seems the model i received support B7/B20/B28 bands also, even thought informations about LTE bands on note 8 pro seem inconsistants and differ from a website to another... So i have no complaints about what i received, but it's still itching me not to know about that "EU model" MZB8511EU, which seem unkown here on xda...
Sorry for my poor english grammar, i haven't practiced since some long years now, and many thanks if you read this far...
