It's possible for us Lte band to be compatible. Google tends to understate all the bands. Same thing happened for nexus 7 (2013), they added band 3 in official specs after sometime. Only way to know for sure is testing it in sg.

Firstly Thanks squeeish for the ordering guide...

Tenso received the product from Google. probably mine is white and 32GB not much fanfare hence faster in delivery

at the moment, I am working on the payment process at the moment.
here is what we need to do:

1) edit the product details (i change the contents to gift) and declare the value you reckoned.

2) then select if you want insurance or not. I took up the EMS insurance (Declared value of 44K YEN= 100 YEN while a lower Declared value will gives a lower insurance) for a piece of mind

3) proceed on and check shipping address and then make payment of service of 1000-2000 plus YEN (SG around 30plus)

Yep. Just thinking if anybody who bought the US set has received and tested it in Singapore. Might get lucky.

Got a feeling US version may also work. Den buy from jap for no reason lor. US cheaper.

there is a possibility.. DC-HSPA may work since some user's Moto-X in SG seem to have '4G' icon but possibly work up to DC-HSPA only..

7 is their mistake in publishing. Asus website already all says NA model has 1800Mhz, only playstore doesn't state it.

N5, after FCC submission of D820.. already known dun have liao

Hi all，just want to check if purchase from Japan play store the voltage of the adapter if it's 100v can it be used in Singapore?
Thank you in advance.

Estimated Arrival: Wednesday, 6 November, 2013
Status:In transit (LANTAU ISLAND 99999, HK)

Got a friend to buy for me in AUS. I can't wait until December for him to handcarry it so I'll have it shipped to SG. Total damage ~ SGD630. Totally worth it!

Even if it doesn't work, I think the savings could be worth it because speed can only get so fast and perhaps webpage loading times are only like 3 seconds faster...

Confirm can.... don't worry. Just that need to buy an adapter, just like what we use for US sets.
