THE SUNNY, 27 Jul 2015One more thing, do whatever you want ti do except breaking its hardware/watering. Software is... moreErr what about the desire eye... That's got the 801 chipset in it and theoretically higher clock speed. Same as the one plus one and now one plus two. Yes nexus 5 is a great phone.. But it isn't the most powerful.

One more thing, do whatever you want ti do except breaking its hardware/watering.
Software issues are not at all an issue for nexus 5.
Trust me, I myself solve all software issues whenever i face with the help of available resources on xda or internet, though i am not an engineer.
Just root your phine and unlock bootloader with the help of NEXUS ROOT TOOLKIT and explore the nexus 5.
I am right now on kernel Uber, optipop rom with 2.5ghz(tweaked), GPU 533mhz, CPU undervolt (38), antutu score 48437(maximum achieved).
SOT on a 2.2ghz,GPU 533ghz and minimum brightness i get 4hrs 48 minutes.
So I ask other smartphones in this range to beat me.
Come on, hurry....!!

Yes, If you know how to tweak/play with android, then nexus 5 is full of opportunities and lots of unofficial support.
Just try it ones and go ti xda, there is an ocean of jewels for nexus 5.

I had ordered it on release and got it a week after that and from then till now it has been perfect. Battery life might not be the best, in the beginning I had only 3H SoT, but after tweaking the settings alone, I am able to get around 4-5H SoT. This is on pure stock android, and without using any apps to help out. Mind you, I could increase this SoT further with the use of certain Apps or a new kernal/rom.

Stock camera is ok, but a 3rd party app easily beats it and really shows the power of the N5's camera.

Overall, the Nexus 5 is a great phone, it just takes a bit of tweaking to get it where it needs to be.

Had mine for 18 months and only the odd software bugs to report really... Battery is crap but that's to be expected with any nexus lol. Personally I'm waiting to see whether the 2015 nexus 5 version by LG rumours are true as to date there is no suitable replacement for my nexus 5.

The nexus 5 has really pathetic battery life and doesn't even have a microSD card... You can have a look at the samsung galaxy S5 which is a very brilliant phone, the xperia Z1 will also be a good buy... Also if you don't have brand preference than you may go for the oneplus one it also brilliant...

By far "THE~BEST" smartphone I have used is Nexus-5, in terms of Performance, easy to use, Perfectly Sized, Black Se*y look, Fast updates.
Battery is not a concern for me, as I live in 21st century and electricity/powerbanks are easily available.
Camera better than many 13mp smartphones, because it has got OIS (atleast I don't need anything better).
I have used xperia z2, Sony 20mp camera is a shit, take a pic and zoom, you will get to know the amount of detail is similar to 8mp pics(whether superior auto or Manual).
In short Nexus~5 is a natural beast.
Dont look at just specifications, try to get a real life experience/user opinions and then decide which one to buy.

Still the best full touchscreen smartphone I've owned,,definitely the fastest. Holding out now with old couple of phones till new Nexus released. If rumours are true and we get this design with updated hardware and battery then definetly buying and brand new not second hand.

In the past I held on to Galaxy S2 due to Sammys software enhancements which I won't bother going over again but I can now replicate these as software and Devs have evolved. Therefore back then I loved HTC Nexus and Sammys Nexus S (still best stealth phone ever built) but missed Sammys own software bits so sold them. Now I can enjoy Nexus with ONLY the software I want put on.

Hope they do not go with ill fated 810 chip in smaller Nexus which is said to be 5.2 inches but hope it is bit smaller. The Nexus 5 was fast, stylish and had superb crisp screen.
