Value for money, display, lots of power, Android KitKat brings some exciting new elements
Camera performance leaves a little to be desired, battery performance could be better, the design and build might divide opinion
There's a lot packed into the Nexus 5, particularly given the £299 and £339 pricepoints for 16GB and 32GB respectively. For that money, you get a display that rivals devices that cost some £200 more, and a chipset that is, in many cases, more powerf...
The Nexus 5 offers a good platform to show off Android 4.4 and although its design is pedestrian, the improved functionality of the new OS, speedy performance and competitive price should be tempting enough...

Superb screen, Fast processor, Has Android 4.4 on board, Excellent value for money
Relatively small battery, No microSD slot
The Nexus 5 isn't all sunshine and rainbows. It has plenty of higher-end features like Wi-Fi support for 802.11ac, NFC, LTE, and extras like wireless charging and video out via the SlimPort microUSB connector. However, it also has a somewhat underpowered...
It's easy to recommend the Nexus 5 based on price alone. There isn't a single other device that offers so much bang for your hard earned buck. OS choice aside, if you don't absolutely need an exceptional camera you'd have a pretty hard job justifying the...
Pedestrian design; Lacklustre camera performance; Some software glitches
In the Nexus 5, Google and LG have conspired to produce a competent if not awe-inspiring device that admirably showcases the new Android KitKat OS. Whilst Android 4.4 itself isnt anything to write home about particularly, the incremental improvements and...

Affordable, great design, good screen, top-end performance
Camera autofocus can be flaky

Free Regcast : What's new in SQL Server 2014? Under the hood In terms of grunt, the Nexus 5 has a lot going for it. The handset uses a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor running at 2.26GHz and uses a 450MHz Adreno 330 GPU, along with 2GB of RA...
No SD card slot, Would have loved to see a 64 GB model, Camera doesn't quite match up to the rest of the hardware
The Nexus 5, on its merits, is a very good phone. However, when you factor in the price it's downright amazing. The biggest problem with the Nexus devices has always been awareness: consumers tend to be a bit confused by them and think that the Google bra...
