The phone is actually excellent. Its literally the pureset form of Android there is and actually makes Android somewhat functional. All other Android phones are trash comapred to the smoothness of this device honestly. Even the S4 and Htc One as slow compared to this thing.

fukk whatever is coming out, it wont top this till this phone's successor is released.
How many different phones u got now?

I think at this point i'm just gonna wait for my upgrade and the next iteration of Android flagships next spring. I still wanna dump this iPhone and go back to Android but the Nexus 5 just seems like the budget flagship. I understand that it's cheaper than them off contract but i kinda was thinking it was equal to them. Seems more like its slightly inferior to them but cheaper.

A new phone really isn't a need its a want. an HTC One or S4 can be had for less than this Nexus cost now but they're so old now its better to just wait for them to be refreshed.
And Youre saying this without holding device cool story bro

Just got this phone and played with it a little before bed last night.
First thing I noticed is the twitter app on there is so crippled. :scusthov:

Mine came in Fri ... First impression : Smooth, the case the screen the whole package im liking better than my last the overly plastic Nexus S. After I uploaded a few of my old apps (sans Facebook :blessed:) I had to boogie cause the kid had a xmas show @ school. hopped in the whip and it swiftly hooked up the Bluetooth :obama: Im a lil pissed cause the 2k13 has the Bluetooth streaming music feature mine don't but :yeshrug:

So I get to use the camera @ the show pics aint that bad actually they pretty friggin clear. was featuring the HDR feature a lot and the pics are crisp. It was generally low light the majority of the show but the vids were solid. I like that if u pause during playback you can zoom in on the video. I took a few w/hdr w/o hdr flicks but haven't checked so i'll report that later. After the show we went to a lil function was takin more flicks and video all in all about 5 hours out and was still @ 68% when we got home.:ehh:

It's been good on app downloads and browsing has been fast I immediately noticed the diff.

All in all im :dj2:over here
