The editors didn't like
There's really only one thing about the Nexus 5 that we absolutely hate
The speaker. From the image above you'd think it's stereo
But nope
The grill on the left is the speaker and the grill on the right is the mic. While the clarity isn't awful
Affordable, great design, good screen, top-end performance
Camera autofocus can be flaky
The Nexus 5 offers the top-end performance traditionally only seen on phones nearly twice its price. This and latest KitKat version of Google's OS make it one of the best Android smartphone currently available....
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...

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 Google Nexus 5 has LTE for multiple carriers, a sleek and solid build, and an excellent price. It makes crystal-clear calls, battery life is long, and integration of Google Now is deep and wide
The Nexus 5's screen is dimmer than its competitors' and its camera struggles under auto settings. While an important OS update, Android 4.4 KitKat is more conceptual than feature-rich
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...
