As from the market price, it is like rm17xx for ori
and only rm12xx for AP.
Which should i go for? since this is what i want till ip5 release.
If i am going for AP, which AP distributor is reliable?
Samsung galaxy Nexus, buy ap or ori?

I found out that AP set for Galaxy Nexus is from Japan NTT Docomo. The phone code is SC-04D. You guys can google it. But it seems like this unit cant do wifi tethering (hotspot) unlike the original GNex i9250. Hardware all all the same. Also it looks like Gnex has a signal issue.i sent to the shop i bought not directly to AP company, i;m not sure which company though. some of AP service centres are in sg wang plaza last time i check. This is why the price difference betwenn AP and Ori is huge for this model. Unlike other model around 100+ or less. So for those AP set users here, can you all give comments on wifi hotspot/usb tethering and the signal issue? What ROM are you guys on? |

depends on where u stay and reputation of the ap company. if u constantly outstation, then ori might make more sense bcos u can send fone for repair easily.
but for a difference of 700 ringgits, better buy ap. |

Since the price difference is so high, just get the AP set. As long as the hardware has no problem(check seriously before you buy), check the Galaxy Nexus thread, they will teach you how to check. Any software problem can be solved in XDA forum..^^
