Hi guys..i read the official "How to buy nexus 4/7/10" guide..and it recommends HopShopGo.
Should i use hopshopgo or comgateway??
I read that DHL ships the fastest, but at a cost right? Which courier does comgateway ships via?

anyone who just recently ordered can tell me how much your Nexus 4 16GB full package with GST, taxes and shipping included, cost?

looks good, but have you ever thought that the backing is just a piece of plastic which doesn't absorb any shock but transfers it directly onto the glass of your Nexus 4?

and if they use clear glossy plastic on the back, it will be a finger print magnet...

The glass back of n4 is a fingerprint magnet. A plastic back isnt worse. A plastic cover is better than no cover at all. Thats if its glossy plastic. Who knows...

Anyone using a faux leather slip case for the N4? Looking for quite a while, but can't seem to find one.

it does not really add bulk to your phone and it feel as though you are holding it without any casing.

So around how long will it take if I order now? Sorry if this has been asked, after using vpn to make order then for billing address put SG address or put CGW address?

The final damage is almost S$500 is it?

 

[angcsbenny]

finally shipped

 

[savage]

Congrats to all who is finally joining the N4 family. =)

That will base on the estimation given by Google Play during your time of purchase. Consider yourself lucky if they ships yours earlier. If not, just wait.

There is a chance of order been cancelled if u put SG for billing address.

Damage is +-$500 for 16GB.

On 2nd Feb I was issued the tracking number, but until today the tracking number is not traceable on UPS.

Finally got my Matte Black Diztronic TPU Case + SGP Screen Protector shipped to me. Amazon took damn long to come through with the screen protector...

Some comparisons with the Nillkin stuff that's easily available here:

Diztronic

• Provides crapload more protection than any Nillkin stuff (raised back + edges + raised front).
• Still the only case I can find anywhere that has proper power/volume button cover. Why leave the power button oily and full of fingerprints?
• Tight fitting. Once you fit it on, it feels pretty much part of the phone
• Good grip.

SGP Screen Protector

• Proper back cutout for camera vs Nillkin screen protector which covers camera
• Feels a lot smoother as compared to Nillkin. Close to naked glass feeling
• No drop in responsiveness vs slight drop for Nillkin
• Front protector doesn't cover as much as Nillkin's front protector, but still enough for screen area.

Also one good stuff to recommend (rooted Nexus 4 only):

Touch Control for Nexus 4
Swipe to wakeup your phone. Eats a bit of battery (honestly, it's pretty negligible to me), but you don't need to press power button anymore, just swipe to wake it up. Paid version gives you a few more options like swipe to sleep. The first app I bought and probably the one app you'll really get a lot of use for - at least 20 to 30 times a day?
