Nexus 5
My company, migme (previously mig33), surprised us by giving each of us a Nexus 5 (16GB) to reward us for the hard-work we all put in for the rebranding from mig33 to migme over the past 3 months.
I always wanted a Nexus 5 because it is the best Android phone I have ever used! The stock Android is fast because there is no bloat and updates come in as soon as Google releases it. The camera is awesome and there is wireless charging built-in.
The Nexus 5 is not officially available in Singapore and hence there is no warranty if you get your Nexus 5 from shops in Singapore since they are all import sets. The rumors I heard from LG not bringing in the Nexus 5 to Singapore is because when they brought in the Nexus 4 the previous time, sales weren’t too great, and hence for Nexus 5, they decided to skip it.
If you are interested in getting the Nexus 5 despite the lack of warranty, you can checkout MobyShop. They are selling the Nexus 5 (16GB) for S$490 and Nexus 5 (32GB) for S$595.
