Google Nexus 5 any good?

[Flying Magical Ponies]

My Galaxy S3 of almost two years just died from that bullshit Sudden Death Syndrome and I'm wondering if the Nexus 5 is any good.

My S3 died too recently

My dad has the Nexus 5 and I really like it. So does he. It's a good phone, really fast.

I really like everything about it so far, looking at the product listing on google.
Only thing about it I dislike is the lack of an SD card.

It comes with enough internal storage. You most likely won't need one or won't require more space for a while.

why Galaxy S3 died? because of what?

OT : Nexus is good. I think atm

Sudden Death Syndrome.
Google it.

My S3 is 16GB but I have 32GB SD card.
I usually put a lot of movies/TV shows on it.

Oh well if you plan on putting things like that on it then it probably will be a problem

Don't know but probably.

I love my Nexus 5 so much. But the HTC One M8 just came out, so you could check that out. TBH it's just as fast as the Nexus 5.

I don't really want the flagship phones of the bigger companies, Nexus 5 seems just fine.
Money is a great limiter, if I had money I'd just get the Samsung S5.

Agree'd I had my Nexus 5 but I got my hands on the HTC One M8 now its like.. This is not yours anymore here you can have my Nexus. Hands down go for the HTC One M8

Seems kinda expensive.
650 in the US or something, probably at least 700 in Australia.

I tried out N5 recently using my friend's phone. It's a great phone and it's solid. The only reason I wouldn't get it is because there is no removable battery and no SD card. I learned my mistake from these two with my iPhone.

I don't really know what the benefits of a removable battery is.
I have a 32GB SD card on my S3 but won't be usable anymore =(

Yeah expandable storage seems to be the problem of the Nexus 5, but for $400 it may be the best cheapest smartphone you can get other than the Moto G/X.

Yeah main reason I want the Nexus 5.

Oh well if you plan on putting things like that on it then it probably will be a problem



Don't know but probably.

Well most shows are finished and shit so it's not really gonna be a problem anymore.

I tend to be out a lot which means I don't have access to a plug. A removable battery would allow me to carry a spare one and replace it easily rather than carry one of those external batteries. Also since most phones have lithium-ion batteries, they begin to die after a while. I'm a heavy phone user and I use my phone very often. My battery life currently is absolutely terrible and to replace it would mean I would have to take apart the phone and risk damaging it, or pay someone to do it. Quite annoying.

SD slot is also a must for me as I would like to keep a lot of documents with me all the time. I have photos, musics, videos, movies, and school work I would like to keep stored on my phone as a backup flash drive if you will. Plus, I like the flexibility of removing the card and plugging it into my computer if I need to quickly transfer something although I guess not many people need this option.

Brick Phones. That's all.

Except that it's Samsung's fault.

The Nexus 5 is pretty great. A good NEW Android device, it fits and reflects its price. I would wait for the Z2 if I were you. I'm planning on getting the N5 tho

inb4 some ****** comes on here and claims iPhones are better.
lol that'd be the day.

The Nexus 5 is some good shit. I picked it up about a 3 months ago and it was worth it. Smooth as butter and good looking. Specs to back up its awesomeness and the god Google owns it so it must be good.

Well I don't even have a phone right now so I can't really wait for anything.
Also it's probably gonna be shit expensive.

Yeah and they usually get updates first.

I'm pretty pissed off that I had a lot of porn videos and gifs/pics that was stored on the phone memory.
