Excellent value for money, Stock Android
Battery life isn't brilliant, The rear is a bit ugly
Battery life could be better and the rear is a bit ugly. Plus there's no support for battery replacement of memory expansion. However, it's incredibly quick to use and the screen is fantastic. With “stock” Android in use you'll always have the latest ver...
Gorgeous screen, Android 4.4 is the best version yet, Nexus phones get updates straight from Google, Tightly integrated voice control, Solid build quality, Ultra-competitive $350 price
Boring design, Lacks the wow factor, The camera, though improved, isn't fantastic, SMS integration into Hangouts needs work, Battery life is inconsistent
To judge the Nexus 5, we need return to the Nexus 4 for a moment. For all its greatness, the year-old phone failed to break into the mainstream, as regular buyers still flocked to Samsung for their Android smartphone fun. Is the Nexus 5 Google's breakou...

The Nexus 5 boasts an excellent 5-inch Full HD display, a superbly powerful quad-core processor and the latest version of Android, 4.4 KitKat. Its specs will make even its top-end rivals jealous, but it charges much less for them. This makes it a great va...
The question is then, have LG and Google tried too hard here? Attempting to build 'one phone to rule them all' and sell it to you for less is a very difficult task indeed.While we don't think the Nexus 5 outperforms some of this year's other Android flags...
They may be brothers, but the Google Nexus 5 looks and feels quite different from the Nexus 4. The glass-topped shiny back has been traded-in for matt plastic. It may sound sound too impressive, but its soft finish feels great on your fingers. The Nexus 5 is pretty slim and light too. At 8.6mm thick and 130g, the phone is exactly the same weight as a Galaxy S4, and only slightly thicker. With a s
The Google Nexus 5 is well-made, but it's not quite as impressive in-hand as the unibody aluminium HTC One. There's a seam around the phone's edge too, making it look less pristine than Nokia's plastic Lumia phones also. And though manufacturer LG has made the frame as narrow as possible for a five inch display, you should also try out a phone this size if you're used to much smaller mobiles: rea
The Google Nexus 5 is an excellent choice if you want a high-end Android phone but don't want to spend £500. It has a great screen, great software and as much power as the top-end Androids. It doesn't have the best camera or the best battery life, but ...
next week, but for now, why not take the plunge? They are selling out quickly enough . Thanks to Carphone Warehouse for kindly loaning us the Nexus 5 to test. Next Nexus 5 arrives on Google Play with Android 4.4 KitKat in tow. Copyright: Google...

Excellent screen, Powerful internals and performance, Android 4.4 is a nice update
Mediocre battery life, Some camera quirks, No expandable memory
The Nexus 5 boasts an excellent screen, powerful internals and runs the latest version of Android, but is slightly let down by poor battery life, and a camera that can't quite match its flagship competitors. Despite a few flaws, it offers impressive value...

After spending a month with the Nexus 5, I fall short of being in love, but I'm still heavily infatuated with this well-made product. From the transition to a soft-touch matte backing to the addition of LTE, this is a quality successor to the Nexus 4.But...
