another update:
LG-D821 (Nexus 5?) spotted at the Bluetooth SIG

my guess is, D820 & D821 might be 1 for US version and another 1 is international version?

hopefully, because the LTE bands used in first model not compatible with Europe and Asia.... I guess Google won't be dumb enough to ignore us. considered it's also launched in a couple of europe markets, so there shall be different lte different model flex.gif

or they vary in other aspects? LOL

Yup, that's that.  It come so much latter, being marketed as a luxury item and being sold just slightly higher than N4. I'm glad u like your GNex but I don't find it prices worthwhile nor competitive with others. I'm not saying it bad, maybe the gps, camera, battery and data connection is a bit lower than competitive products. I never say it an inferior hardware because of it low prices. They sell at about the same price level of the competitor who put better hardware.

As far as I know.  There's no import duties on tablets. Apple price it products fairly here. It just Asus decided to jack it up by RM300. That's what then. Now seems Asus learn it mistake and my purchase of it vivobook is about the same as what they sold overseas. So I do hope LG would do too for it nexus 5.

nexus is a great product I won't denies that. But still not the best bang for the bucks, at least to me.

Yes I do agree GNex is a bit too expensive at the time, but still I'd rather get a GNex given the choice since the OS support is a priority to me. Faster official update release = faster custom ROM developed.

However, it was only until Nexus 4 that they started to make the Nexus devices to have the best bang for buck deal. Nexus 7 was maybe inflated in price at that time, but that's probably due to Asus, since the official price for Nexus 7 is among the lowest compared to other tablets.

They're not the best deal since we're living in Malaysia, our price are always higher than US counter parts, but right now can you say that a 16GB Nexus 4 for RM990 is not value for money?

BTW, If you really want the best bang for buck, you should probably check out Xiaomi's phone, they're incredible in specs and value.

Google is clearing stocks, hence the cheapest price. Even 8GB isn't available anymore. And same goes to Nexus 10. Cost only rm829? I'm not surprised

But the problem is since Stephen Elop joined Nokia, and they ditched Meego for good, everyone is thinking that Microsoft is waiting at the wings to buy Nokia.
Ever since they adopted that direction, Nokia is already 1 foot into the coffin.

if the leaked FCC doc is really nexus 5, then i am very concerned with the battery.... it is said maybe there will be enhancement in battery consumption, but come on 2300? Other manufacturer with snapdragon 800 and 1080 screen is giving at least 3000... that is too big a gap and pushing the limit and not to mention bettery degradation over time.
I am using gal nex, and i have to look after my usage carefully to squeeze the maximum of the battery.

I just wish with such a good processor, i can go full throttle without having to trouble myself too much on watching the battery.

I heard Nexus 5 will have a very powerful Camera which even powerful than the current Galaxy S4.

For the other hardware specification, I think it'll be standard like having Snapdragon 800, 2 or 3GB of RAM, etc.

Theoretically, YES. But, practically, NO.
Thus, the correct answer is NO. Because the phone is a physical thing and you're using it in this real world.

Because you can unroot and revert back everything to the original with ease.
So? Your phone is 100% same as the 1st day you bought... With this condition, I don't see how they say your device have warranty voided.

If you're using Samsung, they don't even care what happen to your device(rooted, unlocked or whatever). They just check the IMEI and will RMA(warranty) for you.

So far, I think only XiaoMi branded phones come with UNLOCKED and ROOTED condition by default/original. Don't look down upon this brand, it has the highest specification phone currently.

Yeah supposed to have a "Nikon" camera or something.

But in my opinion saying it's better than S4 is really nothing much since S4's isn't very impressive.
