Anyone using a Google Nexus 5 in China? I’m thinking about getting one while I’m in the US and am wondering if it works well in China. I’ve heard about there being two versions of the Nexus 5, that of D820 designed just for the North America, and D821, which is the international one. They catch different bandwidths, so I’m not sure.
I don’t personally use one, but I know a couple that do. Any version will work fine with Chinese provider GSM bands (China Mobile, China Unicom). The difference in versions only affects LTE bands. I believe neither support China’s proprietary LTE bands.
I use a Nexus 5 that I bought in England and it works fine. Except I have issues accessing Google Play without a VPN. So if you are thinking of getting one bear in mind that you’ll likely need to set up your VPN on your phone too in order to update your system and apps.
