Unless you have no intention of using LTE.

Japan/south korea seems more practical.
Question is which currency/shipping is more benificial to us.

Australia also can, band 3/7 also

but how to ship from all this country to singapore.

my google result for Japan/

JAPAN - http://www.tenso.com/en/ or vPost

Korea - http://minarinshop.com/ or http://collectkorea.com/services/package-forwarding-service

Australia - http://www.sosmail.com.au/

But i nvr use any of this before since comgateway for US is the way to go all along

HSDPA is the same mah.

Gan pua sian..

Even 3G also not the same

Do note that FCC only lists what is relevant in the US market. So LTE band 3 or 7 might still be probables.

 

[Solkarnar]

Just to clear up some stuff. 3G is no problem as it is a standard worldwide. The only problem is 4G, due to spectrum availability, carriers are unable to use a unified spectrum. This is why we have different 4G / LTE bands in use today.

And as usual, US has to be the non conformist and be different from the rest of the world. What's new? lol

US and China both use different band from all most nations due to national security issues.

if I managed to get my hands on the international variant of N5, it's gonna go with SPIGEN's slim armor.

I'm hoping that Amazon stocks the Nexus 5 when it comes out (supposedly) tonight. I used a US google account with VPN but couldn't purchase anything with either of my debit cards. I'm guessing they check your card's country of origin now :S

Oh well, fingers crossed!

do keep a lookout if the set you are getting supports the LTE bands we use in SG (3 & 7).
unless you have no intention of running it on LTE network...........
