Google Nexus 7 2nd generation

[kennyboy]

Just found out my Nexus 7 2013 bought from Amazon is US local warranty and not Global warranty.
ASUS@SG was nice enough to help me check.

So you are saying it's not accepted for free servicing at local Asus SVC?

No wonder some ppl selling off their Nexus 7 2013 cheaply after only less 2 weeks of purchase. I guess they discover that too after checking with local Asus service centre about their problem set, and therefore dump it off to unsuspecting buyers...

Anyone knows how to differentiate UK n US model?

Other than the charging adaptor which comes in the round two-pin instead of the flat two-pin, I don't think there is other obvious ways to tell from the info u can get from the tablet itself.

Yupx. I got my set from malaysia, arrived today. Except for the 3pin charger. I really can't tell... Or any kind soul can share how to differentiate?

The warranty booklet that comes with Nexus 7 2013 clearly indicates that it is covered by Asus International warranty. I just checked facebook and they are writing the same BS there. I have a feeling the local Asus correspondence is trying to pull a taichi stunt on us.

Hmm....I thgt it's supposed to be International warranty for electronics. Why not send an email to Asus US and check. If pple go US tour, does that means we can't buy electronics product???

More like Asus SG trying to pull a fast one since their local set retailing at cut throat prices compare to Amazon! Probably trying to stop pple from buying thru Amazon!

Maybe you should show Asus SG this website and tell them not to play Tai-chi!

If the local Asus say they will not service for free the Nexus 7 bought from the US means they would probably not do it since they would be the party you go to for Singapore servicing.

I did ask a couple of times for someone to scan the warranty card for the US purchased Nexus 7 here but it seems that no one is willing to do that.

Asus SG itself say it is US Local warranty and Amazon also say it is North American Warranty. It could be a regional thing to bring down the cost.

I do not own one and have not seen the warranty card. I know on Asus website, it did mentioned to consult the warranty card to see whether you have international warranty so it probably means not all items have that.

Did you read what is said that ?

Step 1 : Check your warranty card content to confirm the warranty term and warranty period.

ASUS international service is only applicable to countries that have been authorized by ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC, The service we provide is based on Limited Warranty Service. ( In America area only supports for USA, Canada and Mexico ; Central and South America countries don’t support international service)

Heres the international warranty info from my booklet (pg 16, 17):

Don't know if there is any difference from those official released in Singapore.

This seems to mean that Central and South America don't support international warranty.

The description from amazon says that it comes with 1 yr North America warranty. USA, Canada and Mexico are all under North America. So, doesn't this mean that it qualify for International warranty?

Video Player for N7 ii

Cheers!

International warranty ?

Hi Guys

I will suggest that we can go to the ASUS US FaceBook (if they have this acct) and check & ask for this "International Warranty" issue

Also not sure if ASUS has official Twitter account, be it ASUS SG or ASUS US / International / Taiwan , etc...

Just go ask ...

just in case ASUS SG Facebook continue to "act blur"

Where did you purchase your set from?

Well, it does clearly states you are entitled to International Asus Warranty service in Asia during the warranty period!

I'll suggest you drop ASUS Taiwan (HQ) an email and sort things out. Asus SG probably trying to act blur!

Where did you purchase your set from?

From Amazon.
Its cheaper but its a gamble

Anyway my set only earphone jack defective.
I can live with it.

Just posting as there was some heated discussion about warranty some page back.
