I am guessing it is all safe right?

Rs. 3300 for this case:

Rs. 2500 for this case:

Does it have pogo pins? I like phones with docks that do not use usb port.

Ah forgot... It has wireless charging. Would buy Nokia's charger
USD 446 is the actual pricing of the 32GB model from the Google Play in USA. Which comes to around Rs. 27500.

One Word: Pricey for Indian Version.

 

[Sushubh]

Seriously? You save 5500 rupees ordering from USA for the 32GB model. Add shipping and possible customs. You would save very little. But you would lose the warranty.

Google fucked me up I was gonna go for imported version which will be for 27.xxk but warranty is also a big factor for me. I was ready to ignore warranty but then they said "coming in india" Fuck them! Seriously what to do now? I am ready to pay for 29k anyways but this "coming soon" is still on Nexus 7 2013. I called the LG guy again today and he said launch here will be around 15-20th November.

Shouldn't the title be 4G compatibility?

 

[Sushubh]

I do not think Airtel currently offers SIM that provide both voice on 3G networks and 4G on their LTE networks?
I was just clarifying that units bought from US would work on India's 3G networks. I doubt people are concerned about 4G LTE compatibility right now!

 

[Sushubh]

USD 400 phone costs USD 447 after taxes. So assuming taxes are around 11%... USD 350 would cost around USD 391. Which would be around Rs. 24000. Indian price is Rs. 29000. So again a 5000 rupee difference.
Nexus 7 2013 is not a coming soon for Indian market.
I have decided to wait for the Indian launch myself. Would get accessories from USA.

 

[Navjot Singh]

Nope. They don't.

Do I need a new or separate SIM or number for airtel 4G LTE?Yes, you will need a new number for airtel 4G LTE , you will also need a USIM to be on the airtel 4G network.

SourceAlso it seems in India, LTE band 40 is used. Errm I am not sure whether Nexus 5 would work in that case.

LOL it should work. What's the point of launching it in India otherwise?
