I bought a Galaxy Nexus for work use in January from an Australian retailer.

Just recently it started malfunctioning - it somehow thinks there is always/intermittently a USB charger attached, even when there isn't. This wrecks havoc on battery life since the screen lights up every time it thinks there is a USB charger attached. This does not seem to be a very uncommon issue. (Google "galaxy nexus always charging".)

I am moving to Sweden in less than a week, and average repair time seems to be two weeks judging from online reports from other victims.

And.. this is the kicker: Samsung doesn't offer worldwide warranty repair for their mobile devices. :/
