    Misleading. I went to 4 Smart stores and they denied having any prepaid kits for the Nexus 5. I bought my unit from Kimstore instead.

      Hi Orci, how was your purchase from Kimstore? Wala naman defects yung unit? Buying there for the first time kasi, just a bit worried.

      if you are referring sa google store price, subsidized kasi ‘yun kaya ganun kababa..

    • Avatar for LanFan LanFan says:

      Sa US lang yang $350, the rest of the world usually nasa 20K (in PHP) mark.

      Just check Google Play Canada and UK.

      Research research din pag may time.

    • Avatar for mark mark says:

      nyahaha cge ibili mo yang $350 mo, search search ka muna brod ng SRP ha. iba ang price sa US market.

    • Avatar for Glen Glen says:

      @Mark
      Ang yabang mo naman. Masama mag post ng comment?

      Each one has his own opinion. Also, I dont need to buy one since I’m already using a Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

      Im just saying a $350 USD product shouldnt cost 23k (prepaid, malamang locked pa sa Smart).

      Ang point ng Google is to bring down the cost of the unit. Hindi dapat kasing taas ng price ng LG G2. Eh mayroon shops nag bebenta 21-23k na LG G2.

      Hindi naging worth it ang Nexus 5 kung same price with LG G2 lang.

      There has never been a “locked” Nexus Phone.
      All of them are unlocked out of the box no matter what carrier.
