Yes LTE will be the ideal choice. smile.gif  Sad till now nobody knows when it will be available.  doh.gif

I'm still waiting... Slightly impatient. tongue.gif
Tablet Z is too big for my liking. iPad Mini will be refreshed soon. So N7 II is perfect for now. biggrin.gif

Can the LTE be use here?
*
It is a 1800MHz and if nothing happens it should work here. Same band as iPhone 5.
Maxis and Celcom have this band ready for their LTE network.

Only USA set support 1800 MHz while European sets support 1800 n 2600 mhz making it a better choice here. But there is at least a rm400 higher price difference for Europe sets
*
It will be good to have 2600MHz as well but for the extra RM 400, I will settle just for 1800MHz. laugh.gif
Though congestion kicks in my area for 1800MHz but I think around 20Mbps for 1800MHz still pretty acceptable for me. After all, it is just my entertainment device.

My main broadband is still connected to 2600MHz and I have an extra SIM card which is now used for spare. It is just nice for this Nexus 7 II.

for the LTE version, if we get from newegg we'll get the US version or EU version? it's going to matter since we can only use 1800mhz band on US while EU has 1800mhz & 2600mhz...
*
1800MHz is supported here though 1800MHz has worse congestion compared to 2600MHz.

Finally the LTE version! But the recent devaluation of MYR, we are paying a lot more for the currency fluctuation. sad.gif

It is about RM 1.6k after conversion and by the time it reaches here, I'm not sure how much that adds up to. sweat.gif

I'll wait for US version then since I can live with 1800MHz.

Wait, what's the LTE band for Japan version? My best friend is in Tokyo and she will be more than happy to grab one for me. biggrin.gif

Found out it is 4G LTE 700, 750, 850, 1700, 1900, 2100 MHz
No hope then...

It's very expensive for the Euro LTE version. With these prices maybe US LTE is the only option.  cry.gif
*
Well, the price is not really that expensive but to me that's not worth for it. smile.gif
No doubt we are using 1800MHz and 2600MHz but I can live with just 1800MHz for my tablet.
Probably for my mobile phone, I will go for both 1800MHz and 2600MHz.

So true. Price is really kind of premium for me. doh.gif  Wonder Asus Malaysia will honor warranty for LTE devices here?
May want to skip this version.

Actually a LTE MiFi costs around RM 450. I'm not sure if I should get a non-LTE model and tether using LTE MiFi. hmm.gif

same here, thought of getting a Mifi but then that's another thing to carry and charge...
not to mention those aren't exactly cheap...

MiFi is affordable but not LTE MiFi.
Maybe I should get a LTE MiFi and can use for other devices as well.

i think without the radio chip inside the NExus 7, it will prolong the battery life of it, without worrying the lack of juice at the end of the day. my wifi unit can last so much longer than my phone

hmm.gif Makes sense. I might get the 32GB non-LTE version. hmm.gif

I sent her a PM earlier for pricing query, her price is rather competitive.
But we can now order LTE model from her and get stock soon? drool.gif

RM 1,299 for LTE version is definitely affordable. Can't wait till it's officially released here. thumbup.gif

Supported here but US version, at the time being can only be used on Celcom or Maxis. Only celcom and maxis support 1800. Other telco like digi, umobile, redtone, whatever else use 2600.
*
Eventually DiGi will go for that as well.
I think DiGi is already using 1800MHz.
