Hi,

I am a Canadian and pre-ordered the s9+ plus directly from Samsung. I have just recently heard that the international version of the S9 has the Exynos chip that seems to be a lot faster than the Qualcomm chip that we are stuck with. I want to cancel this pre-order and order a s9 from Europe so I get the best version of the phone possible. The only thing I am worried about is the phone not working here. I know I would also need to replace the charger with a NA plug but I am fine with that small inconvenience.

So will a European smart phone work with the Bell Canada network?

Hmmm, the warranty will be void, and the price is also quite a bit higher in Europe, if I'm not mistaken. I don't think the risk and extra cost is worth it since the snapdragon chip will be more than sufficient for your needs.

We only get the Exynos chip in Canada, no Snapdragon. The US gets the Snapdragon
