This thread is inspired by the two excellent threads started by ScwB. You may see the Z10 thread here, and the Q10 thread here.

Here are official network band listings and model names/numbers for the Q5. Please compare your networks' bands to figure out which model of the Q5 is best for your use. Just like the other two threads, this thread will be updated as more information becomes available officially from RIM and/or various carriers, and you guys! This is a community driven thread.

I agree. Q5 would do well here in my opinion.

that means the RFS121LW will be the Q5 for most asia pac countries which have already rolled out LTE e.g. SG/PH/MAL/AUS and the RFT81UW will be the Q5 for India/Indonesia/Thai/VN, hhm.. yeah.. bring it on!!

hopefully the price tag will be similar across all countries.. at around usd 300.

come on Q5, BRING US YOUR BIGGEST HIT!!!

A price tag of $300 in the US would be AMAZING considering that the Nexus 4, which is LTE-less and microSD slot-less AND subsidized by Google is also $299 (for the base 8GB model.) Unfortunately, RIM doesn't have the distribution like Google to sell the phone directly for $300, though.

On contract, I believe TMO has the Nexus 4 for >$500.
