Hello
I'm looking at replacing my S4 with an S7. My carrier in the US is AT&T and that won't be changing. I've been looking at different unlocked versions and can't find a solid representation of what the real world differences are. I know they have different processors. Some say a band is missing, but does that matter. I don't use android or samsung pay, but i know there is a difference here too. I found one comment about some kind of samsung 'coverage' plan, but what is that?
Best Buy has US unlocked phones for about $700. B&H Photo has an International phone for about $640. Its a lot of money either way. Is one phone really better or different than that other?
I am planning a trip through Canada and maybe to Europe. I assume either would take a SIM from those areas and I could avoid getting raped by international fees.
Here is a summary of question I can think of:

Here is a summary of question I can think of:
- Does the US unlocked phone from BestBuy have a warranty or insurance or anything like that?
- Can the US phone be rooted. I only do this to remove apps I don't use.
- Is the hardware one vs the other really better or just different?
- Does a dual SIM do anything useful?
- Does a band being missing make a real world difference?
- Is there a good comparison somewhere to that can decide on a phone to purchase?
