    I understand that Verizon is on CDMA technology while most other carriers are on something else... If I buy a Samsung S6 or S6 Edge from abroad (Thailand, Hong Kong), can I use those in the US with much/any modification/rooting? If so, are there any downsides? Has anyone done something similar and have experiences to share?

    It won't work on Verizon. On tmobile and att should work provided that it is unlocked, with limitations. It is probably missing some or most lte bands, as well as aws 4g. Also features like wfc probably won't work.
