Which version of Samsung s24 ultra to buy from Dubai for India

[Ablinux]

I am planning to visit Dubai and want to buy the s24 ultra, but I am not sure if I buy the Middle East version or the international or Global version, I have another doubt where we have any UAE variant if yes what is the difference between the Middle East and UAE? i searched on the Internet but couldn't find any information.

i know that Middle East version supports all 5G band that are available in India, I am also aware of the fact that call recording and spay will not work.

Is it worth buying from dubai?

Kindly confirm whether the following work or not:
1. Digilocker

2. Call recording

3. Google Pay (You've answered this but asking this again since this is the one I use. A particular answer would create peace of mind.)

What other differences exist between an Indian S24 Ultra and a Middle Eastern one?

[chaitanya07]

Except call recording all things works well

Kindly confirm the following as well:

1) Are any features capped inside of Digilocker while using the phone in India?

2) How many sims does the Middle East version have? Is it different from the International Version?

3) Since I'll be buying from noon, is it better to go for the International Version or the Middle East version? What are the major differences? There is a dearth of information on the internet regarding the Internation Version.

Thanks
