Key question is whether local LTE can work with the new Nexus 5 phone.
i highly doubt so.

even if it does, maybe the ones sold in European countries can be used here.

taking reference from the Nexus 7 (LTE) sold in Europe.

How to know which variant will be in Google Store?

LG D820 or LG D821

They are saying D821 is European/international version but i don't rmb nexus devices for sale in SG

821 supports singapore LTE bands but 820 don't have leh how?

From all the leaks so far, the US variant LG-D820 will not be able to support the LTE bands used in SG. Only the international variant LG-D821 will work.....
If the international variant is not available from the US play store, i doubt it will be worth the trouble.....


I wonder how to get european version. I ****ing hope that it will be international this time. If get from europe sure gg expensive

We will probably have to work with the canada play store or something if we want the international variant.

nexus 4 is on sales in sg after 7-8 months after it release... it is still on sale now..

anyway for euro or international set, there are europe google play store... most probably they will sell there but exchange rate is against sg...

i guess the exchange rate for euro will be price around the same in USD, differ probably SGD$10.00 ??
e.g
USD349 -> EURO253.36 -> SGD432.20 + $10 ??

but the problem should be no freight forwarder like borderlinx or comgateway in the europe continent. If there is, prices might be premium.

just my 2 cents :)
