Rm400 as a downpayment for preorder for something unknown n unconfirmed yet?? Any such takers??

YES.

Undobtedly it will again be the smoothest android phone as all past Nexus.
But i will pass as only a 5 incher.
Probably will get a used unit much later on just to test it out.

1k ??? Dream about it
I guess estimate it will be 1499 for 16gb n 1899 for 32gb n lowest possibly rm200 less

The USA LTE bands is incompatibile here
Others should be the same

Get Europe sets if you cannot wait for its availability here yet

N4 when newly launch was 1649. Your 1.1 is now reduced price . So probably it will be in 1.6k range again

Don't buy USA set as their LTE bands is incompatible here

3g will work as well
But prepare for much lower resale value as LTE coverage increases over next 1 to 2 years

There is no duty/tax on mobile phones imported in.
The most if holdup at custom you need to apply Sirim permit n pay rm100 for it. RM100 allows you to import in up to 3 phones of same model.

Yes n this is the umpteen time this question being asked today

The difference between model D820 ( USA) and international model D821

If this techbug chap is the same guy as this muzamil chap , than I have a serious doubt. Techbug advertised is international set while muzamil had specifically reply me his is ONLY USA set

SIRIM is Malaysia certification of wireless products. You will never ever see such a Sirim sticker on imported products unless the importer stick onto it.
Custom will normally not open unless is suspicious. If the delivery docs declared as phone high chance it will be holdup at custom.
Than you need to apply Sirim permit at nearest Sirim center. You need pay only RM100 for it n with it you can bring in up to 3 phones same model
You need to fill up 3 forms at Sirim n provide following:
- courier or arrival notice
- purchase detail ( email will do) of phone
- printout from web specs of phone

You can normally get the permit within an hour
Than show this permit to custom to clear out phone
There is no other duty/taxes on mobile phones import into Malaysia

Camera shots quality on this Nexus 5. Some comparison pics too with Note 3 and HTC One
Not bad I'd say - I will be quite happy with its quality

Note 3 for its bigger display and SPen ( if you need such features)
Nexus 5 is still a great phone and I will not hesitate to get one now if its display size is at least 5.5 inch. 5 incher phone just doesn't attract me to use anymore. Each time I buy such phones 4.3 to 5 inch size , end up I always sold it off in less than a month solely because it stays in the drawer most of the time. For me , the main attraction in N5 is its software updates and since I already have a N7 , I can still followup the OS development with it

Don't understand. I sold off the wifi only version to upgrade to LTE latest version

I just hate the HTC one design especially the front speakers. I find it awful n looks like an after thought of just pasting on case. I prefer it hidden as in butterfly. But yet many users love it but definitely not me.
The only good stuff HTC1 has over the N5 is probably its better n louder speakers
N5 for me anytime over HTC1

Poor speaker sound reported. Probably is software related n hope Google will fix it soon

There is ABSOLUTELY NO tax/duties on mobile phones import into M'sia. At worse it is holdup at custom and you need pay RM 100 to apply Sirim permit to clear it
