Where to Buy S4 Active - Unlocked, International Version

[Patrick Stiles]

Can anyone tell me where to buy an unlocked, intl. S4 Active???

I want to pick up a Intl. unlocked version of the S4 Active. I would use it on T-mobile for the next month, then I'm moving to Mexico for 6 months, then Argentina next year. I have a T-mobile S4 right now, and I'm worried about other countries's network compatibility and the lack of waterproofness.

Thanks,

Will that work on T-Mobile?

yeah should work no issues. You probably wont have LTE but everything

So, this says that the 1700 and 1900 bands are only on the AT&T version... Those are T-Mobile's bands for 4g...

Samsung I9295 Galaxy S4 Active - Full phone specifications

Thoughts? I think I might just need to do the Google Play Edition instead.

Like I said you probably wont have LTE but 3G and so on:
