What he said^ ^

Sent from my Disturbed™ Galaxy S4

But you'd have to make sure the network bands are compatible with your telco.
Personally, I'd recommend the I9505. Where I live, I get 40mbps LTE and there's plenty of Dev action here. We already have CM! :D:D

The korean supports any network and you recieve an external chrger for the battery and another battery i think.

i had the i9500 and he was Great but im still not sure...

The lte doesnt matter because in my country we are still not supporting LTE until 2015 or something like it ( i live in israel )

what about the htc one? havent tried it yet...
whats the best phone available ?

Um, no. The E300S/K/L all use different bands that are used by SKT, KT, and LG respectively. That's was the reason why I couldn't import one to Singapore. If the bands are compatible with your telco, you might wanna wait for the E330S (Snapdragon 800!!)

If LTE doesn't matter, then still get the I9505.

And as to the matter of which is the best phone, that is an old argument. As always there is no answer. Go compare the features of different phones: whether you want the waterproof xperia z, the sexy One, or the feature packed S4. They're all good choices. Good luck! :D

I have the I9500 and works great.... we dont have LTE though (Costa Rica) so there is no need of the other models

im talking about performance, whats the best?
about the E330s i cant use it.. i need HSDPA (3G) 850,2100 and it doesn't support.
im in a huge dilemma and i dont know which one to buy...
The HTC one wasnt launched on my country so i havent used it yet.
really i dont know what to do, i loved the GS4 but maybe ill love the HTC one more?
ill be in Hong Kong next month and i need to decide by then.

dont know what to do...

P.S - in Hong Kong they're selling all of the GS4 variants and all the variants of each phone.
