Hi Mate
Check this link :

They seem to be serious people and it looks like they're willing to ship to Australia.
Hope this helps
Found this the other day actually...but seems a lot are on "special order" and are about $200 cheaper than the above "Overseas Electronics" US retailer that I've never heard of. $200 cheaper? Has anyone ever used JadoPado before? I wonder how long special orders take? Why not just buy stock and sell when its on hand?

Screw it. I'm sick of going through phones quickly...I want this one for a good 3 years and its worth the $770 AUD pricetag.

I just bought it. Black leather H818P. Paypal transfer rate was disgusting. $100 more than projections from other daily converter websites. I'll report back with how I go.

Maybe they don't sell so much dual sim phones, so they might order from LG UAE when need be.
Everybody knows that UAE prices on electronics goods are dirt cheap. And maybe other sellers are just ripping you off.
In the end you can choose to pay with Paypal. You will be covered if anything goes wrong.
I don't have any interest in this online shop.
I am just trying to decide wether I buy a S6 G920FD or G4 H818P.
S6 G920FD are available on eBAy but it is nearly impossible to get a G4 H818P, only H818N versions are available and they lack LTE B20 (800mHz) which is very important here in France.
I already have a single SIM Galaxy S6 and it's a beast of a phone, but I like the G4 blue leather back.
My main problem is to avoid customs fees (this problem you don't have for smarphone import in Australia).
If shipped with DHL or FedEx I am stuck. But in the end UAE prices + custom fees nearly the same as eBay prices .
So . . . . . . . . Hard choice.

Did you manage to get it?

Hi Nodymoha..

Did you manage to get the device? I am looking to buy it this weekend..

Let me know please. :confused:


I am in Saudi Arabia, and LG announced that it will provide H818P (2 SIM Slots) with 64GB Micro SD Card.

Well, I have to wait until June 6, until it is officially released.

I hope I can get it sooner.

Found this..

mobileindiaroot.blogspot.sg/2015/06/root-lg-g4-h818n-review.html

Anyone can verify if it works?

Thanks..
Just thinking, why don't you try it, and tell all of us here "if it works or not"? Just a though only. On a side note, they are on XDA, have they or anyone else made any announcement of root for G4 H818N? NO.

IF i were u , i wouldn't trust such sites.

As for anyone wanting to buy the H818P i'm from U.A.E , Abu Dhabi

be careful there r 2 g4's being sold ( not in the sense of different versions but different warranties)

the local market has the phone cheap for 2.2k dirhams and the big stores sell it for 2.8 -2.9k

difference is the cheaper one has no warranty and the more expensive one is warrantied thru LG which should be considered as an international warranty

if anyone needs help buying the dual sim version do get in touch with me and i'll try my best

What are you saying, don't trust JadoPado? Their customer service responded within 24 hours to a query and have told me stock will be available by the end of the week.

US EU usage

Hello,
I am sorry, I am very new to this. I did my best to read up but am a bit confused. My goal is two use a SIM from the US and one from Germany (the two areas I plan on using the phone). Would either the H818P or H818N work for me?
Thank you

As per earlier posts, I ordered from Jadopado.com (UAE retailer) & paid by Paypal. After some friendly and very quick responses by email RE: condition of the handset/box itself (and after speaking directly with the CS Manager over the phone), I am pleased to report I received my phone literally TWO days later after order was paid for, perhaps less if you count the hours between, via DHL.

I've praised delivery companies and other businesses for service before, but IMHO, DHL go above and beyond and consistently deliver above expectations. Haven't dealt with every major international carrier before, but I'd wager they are the best widespread international carrier going around. Love them. / End love rant

So the UAE H818P version comes with:
- Handset (face down, back cover facing up)
- Battery
- White USB cable
- White AC foreign charger
- BEAT wired headset + spare ear plugs (come in its own small red box)
- Sealed red card-like box containing user manual/instructions (1 booklet)

YES, my sticker does indeed confirm the information posted by other H818P users earlier in the thread: FDD B28 700Mhz works on this bad boy.

NO, wireless charging doesn't work on both H818 dual sim models...again, this was mentioned in earlier pages of this thread, so thank you to those users who participated and helped the rest of us with information about the phone. Here's a few images taken with my SGS6 camera phone of the box/seal and INSIDE the phone as well as the NFC chip. I ordered the black leather version.





THIS ALSO CONFIRMS: H818P doesn't come with any spare back covers and I wasn't expecting it to come with any extra. If it did, JadoPado removed it...but I can't tell, as you can see from the images below, their OWN seal has been placed on the phone, but before I turn the phone on, I am currently satisfied with its condition.

Let me know if you have any questions relating to the box contents, condition, or features on the phone. I won't be testing features until at least tomorrow.

So yeah....I'm a VERY happy camper thus far! The only thing that annoys me, is DHL beat local delivery time for my TAGG TG screen screen protector and my Ringke Fusion (black smoke?) cover/case. I'm a bit podantic and will wait for them to arrive first.

Congrats. I got the same from a local distributor in the UAE.
Got the same stuff inside the box.
I got the plastic back so I never expected a second cover. Weird that they opened it though.

Thanks Roosta, I've been following your hunt for the elusive dual sim on WP and here. Great outcome, now for me to restrain myself from clicking on that 'Add to Cart' button! Keep us updated on your thoughts on the dual sim functionality in Oz as from what I've read of your posts, our intended usage of this phone will be very similar.
