If I bring a Korean GS4 (SHV-E300K/L/S) to the US, will it work on any carriers? LTE and all?

I believe that one would work only on Verizon and Sprint... and definitely no LTE support for American bands, sorry

I believe Korean LTE is not compatible with any of the US carrier LTE. Not positive but pretty sure. Also it is most likely GSM so not Verizon, or Sprint- just ATT, T mobile but no LTE.

According to the spec sheet and the S4's Wiki, this model doesn't support most GSM bands for American Carriers... it does say Verizon and Sprint have a supported GSM band, however, but not their old CDMA network. HSPA+ might work, though...

But yeah, if you want full GSM compatibility (although no LTE), get the international i9500 (the i9505 LTE-enabled does NOT support American LTE).
