Lazy to go and play with proxy settings so just asked Borderlinx concierge to buy for me from UK store. £299 before shipping and tax, but no concierge fee.

Nice... I'm just gonna stick to my old 12gb 3G network.

i'm still considering whether to get US version and stick to my 12GB 3G or spend 100 bucks more to get the LTE version and downgrade to 2GB. anybody in the same dilemma?

Why pay more? Just ask yourself do you really need 4G?

I'm sticking to my old 3G plan, even though my contact has been up for almost 3 months.

Guys, a US retailer (Negri Electronics) is selling the Nexus 5, 16 GB for 459 USD/ 570 SGD. This is the version that is compatible with Singapore's LTE network (LG D821). They ship to Singapore too. Not sure about shipping cost, but you could always direct to Comgateway/Borderlinx etc.

Easier if you do not have VPN and are willing to shell out another ~100 bucks. Other Google Play Stores (UK/Australia etc) also more expensive than US version anyway.

I think the site anyhow hantam the name and spec....

Scar it is selling the us version

I was. But I decided to get the LTE (Aus) version in the end as it would have a bigger demand should I decide to sell it off one day. Would be difficult to sell the US version if the "rest of the world" version finally comes to SG.

There is no need to change your telco plan to 4g if you don't want 4g
