iPhone X International Version Vs Us Version Back Housing compatible?

Hello Fixers...

I have a customer in Canada with a 12 Pro Max A2410

He needs a new back glass with Logo, but Mobilesentrix only has the US Version Available.

I was able to find that the US version has a window on the side for an antenna.

Does anyone happen to know if the US version back housing is compatible with an International(canada) Version?

Hi Kevin,

I think you're okay using a US version. According to TechWalls, that cutout is the only difference.

iPhone 12 Pro Max Model Number A2342, A2410, A2411, A2412 Differences - TechWalls

The iPhone 12 Pro Max A2342 is available exclusively for the United States’ market. This is the most desirable model because it is the only one supporting the speedy 5G mmWave network with bands n260 and n261. Its physical appearance is slightly difference with a large side cutout for the new antenna.

If that indeed is the only difference, it should work fine. Trying to use a Canadian version without the cutout would mean a US phone's mmWave probably wouldn't work well, but it should be a moot point going the other direction. The extra cutout won't hurt the other antennas' reception.
