    With Samsung these days, it's usually impossible to root without some sort of exploit on US models unfortunately.

    Yeah, that's why I said the US variants are very difficult to unlock, I had to pay to unlock that s10e that I mentioned and it's fairly sketchy. If I ever get another Samsung I'm going to get the international version.

    last time I checked U.S band support on international samsung versions sucks.

    You're right, if you get an international phone then you should make sure it supports the bands that your carrier uses before buying it. I was looking at the S22 International on scamazon, there are lot of US buyers with high reviews, but I would still make sure it has adequate band coverage for my carrier and area before I would buy it. I had a Xiaomi phone at one point that lacked some band support and I noticed I definitely didn't have as broad of coverage out in the sticks as others.
