Yeah, but read it again. This isn't Singapore. It's Singpore. They so broke they can't afford the A, LOL.

Must be a knock off. Singapore's all about getting those A's.

is this different from the needing to wait 24 hours to install unverified apps thing? Cuz that already rolled out to my old ass Galaxy Note 9 this past week and I'm not in (nor is the phone from) any of those countries
