I'm looking to buying the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE from PB Tech and I notice that the same phone is listed multiple times. The difference appears to be carrier variant.

 

The models are:

 

SM-G990E Grey SM - I assume SM is Samsung
SM-G990E Grey VF
SM-G990E Grey SP

 

What is the difference of each variant? Does it even matter what one I get?

This is the response I got from PB Tech.

 

 

 

Our phones come from a number of sources in this case the model tagged 'VF' for example will have come from Vodafone and would typically come with a free Vodafone SIM card in the sale but it will not be a locked device by any means, doing tis allows us to get competitive pricing where Vodafone may sell us a cheaper model than 2 Degrees but with the same base phone.

 

I hope this clears it up but do be certain although they are different models the phone will work globally and with any SIM.
