halo halo~ how will i claim warranty if i bought a nx4 from usa or any other countries? tqtq

I think better buy from Malaysia. If want to send for warranty have to send back to original country if LG decided not to honour the warranty. hmm.gif

does LG make good phones? my friend had a bad experience with LG, im thinking twice about getting anything from LG.

LG is okay just that their softwares are shitty. No updates and lack of support. Coming from KU990 and Secret User long time ago. Built quality is there and since this is by Google, I'm getting it laugh.gif

Being nexus...their software is all by google, so we expect it to be the first getting all android upgrades huh?

That's the best part. No point having good technical specifications and run by lousy software. thumbup.gif

but they didn't reply
even the optimus g haven't start selling in malaysia
they just said before christmas @@
don't forget optimus g smile.gif

looking forward their price

lol even if optimus g cheaper or on par with nexus, i still won't choose LG.
they are very slow in updating OS. In this case, probably making the update available for LG phones.
at least for nexus, u get it direct from google. laugh.gif

i also coming from apple background
the 3gs era
this is my first android phone
hopefully it is as good as iphone's ownership experience, if not better rclxms.gif

One thing you dont know as you come from apple.  whistling.gif 
LG only manufacture the hardware of Nexus 4, all the software will come DIRECT from GOOGLE.  thumbup.gif 
No involvement of LG anymore. So, u dont need to worry about all the update.  tongue.gif
*
before apple i own 2 LG phones, KU990 and Secret, two top of the line and flagship phone from LG
that time their software update is so shitty that it makes their top of line phones laggy and buggy

i understand that android comes from google but still if with optimus g i think LG still need to roll out the android update (without 3rd party mod). (i was talking abt lg optimus, not nexus) tongue.gif

sadly is no
you are right, lg phone slow in software update =_=
and LG phone also got its good point which is build quality, see their phone the spec not bad and the cheap is cheaper
disadvantage is very low resell value, hard find accessories
but this is nexus device, and they just make the phone only, nothing related to the software update and update is by google
*
ok la this by google
i'll give it a try

But the battery test shows that this one has inferior battery life to Optimus G despite almost 100% similar spec and hardware  hmm.gif
Should be? Anyway... I guess it'll be still a single charge everyday laugh.gif
*
Somehow some compromise have to be made to make the price cheap and appeal to the mass market.
I think if optimus g has better battery life then the nexus 4 has to sacrifice battery quality. hmm.gif
well unless optimus g sell for cheaper price than nexus 4 then i'll have nothing to say lol

Anyone have any idea if i ask friend to buy from US, like in bigger amounts ( 10 - 20 pcs ) will the custom tax here? @@. And how much and how long would the shipment be? @@
*
If phone value over RM 500 there is a 10% tax. Then there's Sirim charges, I think around RM 250 per phone.
Lol, I buy one coolant tester from US, arrive here a week later via USPS first class international mail. So I think around 1-2 weeks max. One simple small box cost me RM 30-40.

Then have to wait for Maxis or Digi to bring in.
Coupled with RM200 rebate I think should be less than RM 1,000 on 24 months contract. tongue.gif

One of the Digi's staff managing in Android phone has instagram'ed the Nexus 4. So at least Digi will be supporting it.

Do you have any info from Maxis? Tried Digi before but the network is a let down. ohmy.gif

Today, many sources reported that the LG Nexus 4 sold out in most of its on sale countries.

There are suspicious on the sales of Nexus 4.

The Google Play rep said the servers crashed due to huge traffic.

So, is it really sold out, or the servers crashed due to too huge amount?

What you guys think about it? Anyone tried and successfully purchased??

Not surprised.
Airasia festival sales also suffer from the same faith.
