The "zoning" of Samung Galaxy Note 3 is controversial: should we s ... - Frandroid

travelers typically use a simple solution when traveling abroad, if they do not want to collapse under a roaming bill disproportionately: they buy a SIM card from an operator of their country of Home. Unfortunately, it would seem that it is impossible with the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

Always read the fine print, this seems to be the moral of the story. The Clove operator in Britain, reported on his blog this sticker on European housings Galaxy Note 3, the latest Samsung phablette. It states that “ product is compatible with SIM cards from a European operator “, is one of the member countries of the European Union which may be added Albania, Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Monaco, Montenegro, San Marino, Serbia and the Vatican.

What should be understood here? The case is simple: Samsung block the ability to use a foreign SIM card in Europe, for example, American, buyers of a European Galaxy Note. Suffice to say that such information can only be controversial. The case seems even more

harmful than previously, Samsung had not expressed on the subject, leaving the first buyers of Note 3 (released September 25) in the dark. A peak for a phablette that, even if it affects a public increasingly wide was initially a majority of professionals who may need to go on a trip abroad. However, it seems that we are a little excited about the subject: the Galaxy S4 and S4 mini would also be affected by the measure which actually would not claim that activation within the European territory, or in the region purchase. The “zoning” devices would be reserved for their activation, then it would be possible to use the device with a foreign SIM.

extent, if these data have proven (so far only confirmed by Samsung Germany), would seek to regionalize purchases rather than use. The idea would be to not buy a smartphone in Europe to bring in another region of the world, rather than to prevent the use abroad. Still pleased, do you want to blow. For pros like the others, if you do not use foreign SIM travel, beware of roaming when you leave the country
