Snapdragon 800 is still quite beefy and capable leh. I think n5 is still worth getting.

Just some quick questions for those peeps whom successfully RMA-ed their N5.

1) Do I need to return back the original Google box or just any box with bubble wrap?
2) What about the manual and also the pick that opens the SIM card tray? I know I have to keep the USB charger.
3) What is a 'YU-Pack Pre-Paid (CHAKUBARAI) label??'

yeah the processor wasnt a major factor.. its more of the additional local warranty and also expandable memory via sd card that the padfone S has an edge over n5... for i would think a cheaper price? since n5 new will still cost >$400

 

[Ramtree]

Then I guess you should go for the padfone.

You'll need to use a forwarding service.

I've previously used www.tenso.com/en/ when purchasing from JP.
