For those whom are aiming for Nexus4 from US - Google Play, the rounded price for phone + shipping within US is $390.04 for 16gb
As you need to include the sale tax too. With the exchange rate of 3.1, it's around MYR1209

been reading comments on the sound quality for this N4 lately, can you guys share your experience from normal speaker mode (not via earphone)?
1) in a quiet place
2) in a crowded environment (e.g. the lobby of a huge shopping mall)

Nexus4 is near the bottom on 'battery life'
i hope a better firmware will fix this

MYR1599 vs USD390 (MYR1200++)
If the price stays, I would say it's a good deal for MYR1599 for the local warranty
thumb up!

like all the great phones, N4 have its con. The list that I know off until I get my actual unit from US in Jan 2013...
- Average (or maybe below) battery life if compared to the other flagship phone
- No LTE (not a big issue now since M'sia telco have not go full force on LTE yet. Frequency of the LTE might also prevent the compatibility too). But they say the LTE antenna is there smile.gif
- No SD card support
- No USB OTG support; not sure if it's hardware/software related problem. But I hope it's a software so that we can just tweak it and enable it in the future
- Some says sound quality might not up-to-the-mark

Anyhow, that's the con part. For me, the pro part have convince me to get one smile.gif
