When no one seems to be paying attention, the giant tech vendor from the South Korea, Samsung, has silently introduced a dual-SIM version of its latest phablet device, the Galaxy Note 4. This new variant, however, is only available for the Chinese market. As it turns out, the dual-SIM version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is available in three variants. The first variant is the SM-N9109 which is specifically designated for the China Telecom carrier. The second variant is the SM-N9106W which is designated for the China Unicom carrier and the last one is the SM-N9108V. The latter is not designated for any carriers, it’s a SIM-free version. This means that users of the device can use it with just about any carrier of their choosing.
According to the SamMobile, the first SIM card slot of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Duos supports 4G connection already. It has been designed to fit the 4G networks provided by the carrier companies in China, which use the TDD-LTE or the FDD-LDD. Unfortunately, though, the second SIM card slot only has support for 2G network at best. Besides the dual SIM card support, this version of the Note 4 also has slight spec differences when compared to its original counterpart. Samsung has degraded the internal storage capacity to 16 GB. For your reminder, the original version has 32GB built-in storage capacity. And, while the original version of this latest generation phablet from Samsung carries a 3,220mAh battery, the dual-SIM version carries a 3,000mAh battery.
Apart from those slight differences, the remainders of the specifications stay true to the original version that the customers in the North America and Europe can get their hands on. It is still supported by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 CPU running at the clock speed of 2.7 GHz. In addition to that, it has 3GB RAM, 5.7-inch display with quad HD resolution, 16MP main camera on the rear, 3.7MP secondary camera on the front and the Android 4.4 (KitKat) OS. The Galaxy Note 4 Duos phablet, the SIM-free version, which Samsung is offering to the customers in China comes at a slightly higher price than the one that the South Korean company is offering to the customers at the rest of the world. Samsung is demanding 5,199 Chinese Yuans for the device. Yet, as for the other two variants, the prices remain to be seen as of this moment.
