Is Pixel 4 hardware same worldwide?

[1adam]

Hi, is there any difference to the hardware if I bought a Pixel 4 in the USA versus in Europe? Or is it 100% identical hardware?
I am concerned there may be something to do with cell bands and compatability with networks when I travel.

The only difference I see is that the US version doesn't include Band 32 (1500MHz), which is strictly an experimental downlink frequency in Europe at this time and the global version doesn't include Bands 14(700), 18(800), 19(800), 29(700), 30(2300), 46(5200), 48(3600 - strictly CBRS*). If the carriers you're going to use don't use the missing bands in the area you're going to be in, it doesn't matter.

*I don't know why it's included - it's for short-range personal comminications, like WiFi.

I've had every Pixel version and traveled all over Europe and Asia which each of them and never had any issues with connectivity.

Mine are from the Canadian Google store but I'm pretty sure North American units are identical.
