Sets from amazon & play store same? As in warranty..

What i read from the MO thread is that Amazon provides warranty for North American and Play store under Google the warranty is directly from Google.

 

[ngeray]

Oh ya I got a question. I know that the us lte set is not compatible to sg lte because of the band issue. But can a us lte set use with sg 3g sim card?

So meaning to says sets from goggle play store got international warranty?

 

[kEvinErd]

I thought warranty is provided by the manufacturer, ie Asus?

 

[TiOnGSquare]

so now where can confirm the LTE specs???

 

[hmsweethm]

only UK sets' bands can be used in sg

thanks for info. After reading, seems like there's still some uncertainty on LTE support. hope there's confirmation asap. Been waiting for this tablet since beginning of 13.

Singapore LTE networks use bands 3 and 7. Buying from the US would mean you can't use LTE here.

3G will work fine - both the US and UK models support the same HSPA+ and GSM frequencies.

Google: Nexus 7
Networks-Optional 4G LTE
North America:
4G LTE: 700/750/850/1700/1900/2100 MHZ (Bands: 1/2/4/5/13/17)
HSPA+: 850/900/1900/2100/AWS MHz (Bands: 1/2/4/5/8/10)
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

Europe:
4G LTE: 800/850/1700/1800/1900/2100/2600 MHz (Bands: 1/2/3/4/5/7/20)
HSPA+: 850/900/1900/2100/AWS MHz (Bands: 1/2/4/5/8/10)

I supposedly thought so too, on Asus's web, it states the nexus 7 (2013) having international warranty too.

 

[messi1986]

Anyone tried buying from play store?

 

[StanII]

What i read from the MO thread is that Amazon provides warranty for North American and Play store under Google the warranty is directly from Google.

I think that's if you wanna rma back to amazon?

Else doesn't make sense that amazon sets don't have international warranty given Asus is providing it.

Not very sure. That's what i read from the MO thread. Perhaps can call Asus Singapore to enquire?

I read one of the mo thread, apparently Asus sg don't do repairs for now possible because the device is not brought into sg yet, wait for further updates in future I guess.

Take it as must send back to US first.

That's the case for 1st gen nexus 7. Asus offered international warranty. I'm guessing it should be the same for the 2nd gen nexus 7.. Haha

That's probably the case. Not sure when will SG get nexus 7 2013. Still waiting for the guys here to give me the quote for the price they paid from Amazon.

I checked Asus's web for Nexus 7 (2013) details and there shows international warranty details for it.

That's probably the case. Not sure when will SG get nexus 7 2013. Still waiting for the guys here to give me the quote for the price they paid from Amazon.

yeah, no updates on my statement yet.

take it as USD * 1.33 for now.

Those interested in knowing the shipping costs of the freight forwarders, please be patient.

Most of our packages, I should say all, are now stuck at the carrier due to it being a Saturday.

We will definitely report here after it is received and sent out by our respective forwarders.

Cheers.
