Getting a S4 i9505 which is UK version. Without box without warranty.for Rs 31.5kGetting a S4 i9500 which is indian version. With box and warranty. This is a month old. Rs 32ki9505 is much better than i9500. I am so confused which one to buy. Can anyone suggest
i9500 has more performance

Just an eye wash. I9500 is pretty locked model. you cant really do much with it. Where as I9505 is much rootable without modifying system status

There is no difference in locking system, both are the same

Lol by locking system i meant was that I9500 has a samsung processor for which the system modify status is hardware locked but with I9505 is not the case. More over you cannot use the google edition on I9500 but can be used on I9505.

If you mean flash counter then it is there on bothYeah that's one point that Google edition can be flashed which is awesome

on i9505 flash counter can be reset and the system modification status can be reseted too

What's the advantage of resetting the flash counter when you don't have warranty in the first place? or am I missing something.

There is no. But then community support for I9500 is almost negligible as compared to I9505

precisely. If you are importing it from abroad, what's the point of flash counter.
