I have looked around and can't seem to find a 32GB Samsung Galaxy S5 from any US carrier. I have looked at some international phones but they have the Octa core processor not the snapdragon 801. Does anyone know where to get an international unlocked S5 that is the same as the US version but just 32GB?

I was thinking about that but the note 4 might be a little to big.

They certainly are quite large, but their build quality and appearance is better, not to mention it they're easier to find.

If you want the international version, you have to import. The problem with going international, is there is no guarantee that the phone will support the cell bands/technology you need here, unless you do research. You may also lose a lot of functionality, like the ability to use a data plan as 4G varies how it works somewhat in different regions. The Octa-core is really not that much better than the regular 4 core Snapdragon, as it's really 2 quad core processor core sets. One set is used when the system doesn't need much power, but as demand ramps up, the other cores kick in, and take over the heavy load stuff.

That is what I was afraid of. I just can't believe that Samsung did not release a 32GB version in the US.
