Hi, has anyone seen whether there are several different versions of the phone?

Like I think the Priv has 3 versions and the Z30 had 5 or so.

Just wanna make sure I order the right one for use in Asia primarily.

Thanks

Priv actually has 4 versions:

1. US, Canada Factory Unlocked, AT&T, T-Mobile
2. Verizon
3. Canada Carrier, APAC
4. EMEA

and a 5th variant mentioned in the manuals, presumably the cancelled Sprint variant.

So far based on FCC there are 2 versions, North America and EMEA/APAC:

Hi Toni,

Thanks a lot. If I buy the north american model I will be missing out on TD-LTE but I guess that may not be a huge problem. Wiki says this is for future international roaming...

Yep and based on the continents/regions mentioned there officially, I'm guessing those are the only two models going to be released.

All regions are pretty much covered by those regions mentioned.
