Buying H815 on amazon/newegg

[robef]

Hi guys,
I have read reports of people buying the H815 on amazon/newegg/ebay and receiving the H815T Taiwanese version instead of the international (UK?) version. I'm mainly worried about any compatibility issues with At&t LTE stateside. Are there any other differences?

Anyone have experience buying through these third-party retailers?
If you have the international, non-taiwanese version, could you say where you got it? Thanks.

Only the H815 - UK version can have bootloader unlocked. As of now anyway. I'm not sure about other differences - LTE bands, etc.

I would check what bands the Taiwanese version comes with. I have the international H815 (same as UK model) and it has most of the bands for ATT and TMO.

Has anyone heard of Clove Technologies? Looks like a UK based retailer that ships to the US, wonder if I would have any better luck buying from them rather than a sketchy third-party amazon retailer? Or if all of this is worth the hassle and I should just buy the more expensive/full of bloatware/limited capability AT&T version....

You can't go wrong with Amazon 3rd party. At least I haven't and have gotten free returns when stated not available.

Also, see http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg-g4/527756-lg-g4-models-cellular-frequencies.html for the H815T. There's a link at the bottom of the first post for source if you need more info.

I used Clove before (I'm in the US in Arizona) and had no problems at all.
Having said that, I've also never had a problem with Amazon.

I have also used Clove a couple of times. The latest purchase was my UK H815. I paid a little extra and got the phone 3 days after ordering.
