Hitec Mobile is selling it @ $685 with 1 year local warranty, but not sure if got Google Play Store and what colour.

Tempted to get this since it's cheaper than the official pricing by almost $100 ($84 to be exact).

This is a pure stock experience right? How does it compare to pixel phone and andriod one devices like MI A1 in term of software update?

Yeah, they do take a risk in bringing in more exclusive models as well.. like the LG Q6 - which fits well into a mid range line up .. compared to SingTel and Starhub’s strategy of overly high end and overly budget - say Samsung J7?

Over the time, I noticed that M1 is more willing to bring in new phone brands than the other two telcos.

For example, M1 brought in brands such as Sharp, TP-Link phones which are relatively unknown to ordinary consumers in Singapore. Singtel and StarHub usually only bring in brands that are well-known by consumers in Singapore.

No idea but got a feeling LG isn't very enthuasiatic :s22: i would avoid it to be safe (for now) tho

Nokia seems to be moving fast.. they even launched Nokia 8 faster than V30. I think the Android Oreo update will also be better, faster and more optimise than the one from LG. LG is a very slow kimchi company.. I'm surprised that is the Korean culture?? Oh.. I forgot Korean company are famous for bloatware!!

Yeah, the LG Q6 is a decent mid-range phone with the trending 18:9 display available at a lower price than flagships. Too bad only M1 carries it.. :(
