Google Nexus 5 review | Engadget

Google Nexus 5 review. The new Nexus measures 137.9mm (5.43 inch) tall, 69.2mm (2.72 inch) wide and 8.6mm (0.34 inch) thin. It's imperceptibly wider than the Nexus 4 due to the larger screen, but LG's also trimmed down the bezels a bit, so the extra width shouldn't make it any less comfortable to hold.

Have the white 32 GB. Loving it! First regular day of use I got 18 hours battery time with 5 combined hours of screen and talk. Huge step up from my GNexus!

[@Ccarter17]

One of the best and honest reviews out of Engadget I have ever seen

[@cjlc93]

This is actually a pretty well made review. Good job Engadget!

[@MrMoschat]

"The rest of the world model, as we're calling it." That would be called the international model. Derp.

[@MisterDANNt]

That shutter lag was due to HDR+ being turned on. The iPhone would also lag if HDR was turned on. In fact, the Nexus took the shots pretty quickly with the HDR+ processing.

[@Malpassada]

About the camera. This aspect in Nexus 5, its really good?

[@Thomas6557]

A very good review, clear and informative. Great!

[@HarshitPassi]

The Snapdragon 800 has 2 SKUs. One is clocked at 2.26GHz, which is rounded off to 2.3 GHz and the other is clocked at 2.15 GHz, which is rounded off to 2.2 GHz.

[@franciscodiaz1239]

you said the Nexus 5 had Infrared support does that mean you can control tv with it ?

[@franciscodiaz1239]

***** Can you tell me some usefull apps that will work for controling the tv ?

[@ronchristella]

Great review I can't wait for mine!

[@yashkhelkar]

nice video !!! can u get more on battery life

[@postxtito]

good review , and your not annoying to listen too ... .and you don't come across cynical

[@AztkSmooth]

Even though I got a note 3 on launch I want to pick this up :(

[@AdityaAserkar]

nicely made review

[@mastalee1776]

its to bad the shutter speed on the camera is slow. how is it comparable to s4 or HTC

[@TheZigZagg]

So could you explain why this camera beats or is on par with the moto X 10 megapixel camera. The only real shitty feature is the mono speaker..

[@pressplayasia]

Good review!

[@WD-M01]

Great review thanks!

[@googleg5]

Mehhh this review is just previous engadget horrible reviews compiled into one and have a monotone review for this video. Waiting for a thorough hands-on N5 review (llike mkbhd) or i'll just wait until mine comes this week..

[@nirlug]

The nexus 5 have NFC ?

[@franklinraj]

i want this phone now

[@thepepelyfe]

should he have said 2.33 ghz?

[@fidelr599]

Yes in some parts of Mexico you can also get 4g LTE MY BROTHER. ...

[@HowToDoItThatWay]

Did he said 2.3gh??

[@arshkfilms8656]

Best android phone any one can get now!

[@darkko190]

White nexus 5> There is this very slight bulge coming from the back underneath the flash. in the shame of a rectangle thingy. its very slight. not enough to care but wondering if anyone else has it. PLZ ANSWER 

[@PTYC933]

Nice video Engadget. The nexus 5 is a great product for the price, thumbs up to google otherwise the moto x seems to be the most innovative android phone. For me, I would like to narrow down between the Nokia 1020, iPhone 5s and moto x.

[@khashaba001]

Good

[@LegndaryHitman]

I might switch from my iphone 5 to this, but I'm hesitant due to how much I'm invested in the apple ecosystem /:

[@kingdomgames6570]

I found it on best buy for 150 this is a steal

[@shishigumi]

I like the look of 4 better, with this was Nexus 4s...

[@kaineshutler]

I needs me some #Nexus5. Nice review.

[@picpepe]

Great phone

[@derrick17051998]

Awesome vid

[@fayzanrajput7]

It costs 600$.in asia...where to complain for that???

[@TheLetimad]

Its actually 2.26 ghz

[@nil8play]

Awsome android phone Nice Review

[@Kevlanco]

If you are going to sign a contract on sprint, you might as well look at other phones at stone place like Amazon; as you only Get 100 dollars off and you'll be paying 200 dollars for a nexus 5 when you can score a moto x or HTC one for around 50 dollars....

[@abilashkollara]

That was a dull video for such an awesome device....

[@egyardiya]

The battery life is a deal breaker for me..

[@justincredible3907]

Bottom *

[@RaphaelKaulitz]

The best Android phone.

[@Abanamat85]

Are you fucking kidding me? 30-second unskippable ads on KZbin? Fuck Google.

[@jensen6736]

I know, a whole 30 seconds! Oh, the humanity!

[@Abanamat85]

***** It used to not be this way! Fight the power

[@AkshayNalavade18]

use adblock app on google chrome

[@killedassasin]

are you fucking kidding me, no adblock in 2014?

[@AkshayNalavade18]

there is.. i downloaded it yesterday from chrome app store

[@iammattjones]

I"ve heard better voice overs in Charlie Chaplin movies.

[@gilbertpsp]

Damn I want it

[@han666]

Audio too soft

[@matt3408]

Best!!!

[@1st2run]

The real question here, matte black poor panda white

[@MikHDGaming]

Ha am the lucky one I got the phone on 4th November!

[@ULISSES1291]

Boring? Like this review

[@ultimatetoturial56]

Double the price of the iphone

[@Jonadam23ify]

Perhaps it is just me but I find the reviewers speaking habits off-putting. He stresses words that most people don't and has weird pauses throughout. I'm not trying to be mean but for me it is really distracting.

[@sasi3413]

camera realy worst ...

[@Easport1200]

Thumbs up if you think he sounds like Austin Evans

[@jo1990w]

惊现麻将席！

[@garrypascual1]

nexus 5

[@dalig6293]

Jimmy sufelo

[@catha86]

can't wait for the nexus 6. it ill be amazing too. google is trying to make everyone buy a nexus instead of other brands like apple and samsung. Step up apple or get run over.

[@justincredible3907]

Apple has already been run over, squashed by a sumo, shot with a mini gun, punched by a boxer, and pushed off the ladder, straight to the bottome :)

[@2507jasonpoon]

Gospal Libary =)

[@YEE941]

Lol this guy talks cool

[@ZJMUSIC1]

British?

[@mmanut]

Now I remember why I stopped going to Engadget, you people give the worst reviews for anything besides Apple. Never ending loop, not real world, why not just stick with Apple, boring as hell just like Engadget.

[@YEE941]

Lol @ that shutter lag... Android sucks #teamapple

[@zaccarmody4698]

Brad, speak louder!

[@Shaahidsaiful]

C c crappy camera

[@Mark-Florent.Leloup]

Boring review .......
