Bought the 16GB Nexus 7 (2013) from Amazon for only US$199 during the Black Friday deals week! The 32GB was also on discount, going for US$239!
The item is eligible for FREE AmazonGlobal Saver which means it ships for free to Singapore! So you just have to pay US$199 which is about S$250. Do note that Asus Singapore is selling the exact same Nexus 7 (2013) in Singapore for S$379. The only difference is that it comes with 1 year warranty. For S$130 cheaper, I can forgo the warranty!
I placed the order on the 21st November 2013 and it got shipped by UPS on the 23rd November 2013. I received my item about 2 weeks later on the 7th December 2013.
For S$250, the specifications of the Nexus 7 (2013) is actually very good, it beats the crap out of my existing Nook HD+!

By the way, in case you are thinking of getting the Nexus 7 (2013) LTE model from Amazon, don’t bother because US’s LTE band will not work in Singapore. You are better off getting it from Asus Singapore. They are selling the 32GB Nexus 7 (2013) LTE model for S$529.

















Hi, Very good Review…I have a question..The device should have international warranty right..So will the device be void warranty in singapore, since its purchased from USA?
Asus Singapore will not cover the warranty if you did not get it from Singapore
Hmm..Hope that all products shipped are in good condition..but still if u get an orange..i hope it will be bad luck..what do u say?
Totally depends on luck =)
