    They are quadband 3g with 1700Mhz frequency, so yeah it will work.

    No. Cricketfan, it will not work.

    Robellus version works with Robellus and has LTE on AWS (not backwards compatible)
    Mobilicity/WIND version works with HSPA+ Robellus, and HSPA+ Mobilicity/WIND/Videotron/T-Mo.
    Nevermind Bell.. LTE is fine.

    My bad, I thought North America version would be 2 GB ram, dual core and just hspa+, international would be lte one, one gig ram and quad core.

    That's backwards. Only NA version would have LTE. What's weird is they didn't go pentaband for the international version and give that to Wind, Mobilicity, Videotron and T-Mobile

    The word 'Pentaband' means '5 Bands', from the Greek word 'pente' meaning '5'. For a phone to be pentaband it has to support 5 bands. If the phone has AWS support, it doesn't automatically mean that it is pentaband. The reason Wind and Mobilicity users like pentaband phones is because the reverse is true. We're not the only ones who like pentaband phones though, so please stop referring to phones that work on Wind and Mobilicity as pentaband. It causes unnecessary cofusion.

    Wm/Mobi don't have LTE yet correct?

    Should they deploy...then the Rogers et. al version would work?

    Nope. LTE is a completely separate network such as 2G (GSM, EDGE, 1X) is separate from 3G (HSPA, HSPA+, WCDMA)

    ^ I'm assuming you're replying to my first question, which is do they have LTE, you're saying no. I Gotchyou.

    What of the second question?

    Wind will likely deploy LTE at 700MHz, so the answer there would be no.

    assuming that the new guys can get 700mhz spectrum in a future auction.

    North America S3 i747 has aws band locked out, with a correct radio flashed (it hasn't come out yet on xda), it will work.

    Got the aws radio flashed on Rogers i717 Note and S2 LTE i727 and it works on mobilicity, both have qualcomm chipsets like the i747 so it should work.

    Then the phone will work exclusively on LTE on Wind/Mobi.

    Incorrect. It will work on HSPA+ only, Wind/Mobi does not have LTE.

    Maybe this will clear things up a bit.
