[Q] AT&T Updates vs UK International Updates?

[chrispyutec]

I am looking to buy the international version and not the AT&T pretty much for the sole purpose of receiving timely updates which AT&T doesn't have a good record of. I do not care about not having LTE either.

This may be a stupid question, but does anyone know with certainty that the international will get the updates when having a AT&T sims installed?

I doubt the SIM makes a difference, but remember you can always push the update yourself with Kies or Odin.

In your opinion and for update purpose which would you buy?

If your top priority is rapid official updates, the international version will almost certainly be better. AT&T is notorious for delaying official updates.

I bought the AT&T version because I'm more concerned with having LTE than I am with receiving official updates.

International version all the way! that's the route i took m8. LTE is just a battery drainer really, hspa+ here where i am i get 14mbps which to me is good enough even with tethering. unless your xfering from top sites using LTE and your data plan then go for lte lol:laugh:
