Will I get optimum 4G speeds if I use a Three UK SIM on an unlocked Verizon or AT&T Note 5 ?

As you may know, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is not available in the UK. Therefore, I will have to buy on eBay. I have seen many listings for Note 5 64gb from Verizon or from AT&T.

I am not very familiar with the radio frequencies they use and I want to be able to use 4G with it and hopefully get the best speeds too.

Correct me if Im wrong
Three UK 4G uses band 3 and band 20
And the Verizon Note 5 I want to buy only supports LTE band 3, so I wont get full coverage.

However, I am currently an owner of the One plus One and that also doesnt support band 20. But my 4G coverage is fine in cities and 3G is also very fast. Do you think I will be experiencing the same with the Verizon Note 5 considering both phones dont support band 20?

Just get the N920C or N920 CD it supports band 20.

Do you know if the N920C version has 64gb? Because all the ones on ebay are only 32gb

I used a compatibility website called will my phone work to answer my question. According to it, I should get the same 4G experience with a N920V as I have done with my One plus One.
Thanks for all the help!
