It's also coming soon to India, so who is upgrading?
 


I bought the Nexus 4 when it came out and was so disappointed with it that I ended up returning it. Ended up getting an S3 after that which I absolutely love. The Nexus device just seem really buggy and poorly thought out, along with some pretty bad design flaws (the back of the Nexus 4 is perfectly flat with a rear speaker, meaning when placed down on a hard flat surface the speaker, ringer etc are almost silent). I love the clean Android over all the 3rd party bloatware the manufacturers and provider put on most phones, but I'd rather just root and ROM a solid phone than have these Nexus devices.

3200mAh REMOVABLE battery. The Note 3 currently has the longest battery life of any android phone.
 
I'm pretty content with the Nexus I have. I don't see a need to get the 5. It's like falling into the apple trap: iphone, iphone 5, iphone 5s, soon they'll just be getting iphone tattoos one their faces.

Longest battery life of any android phone ... stock. Yes.

Personally enjoying my S4 after I threw the 5200 mAh Ankur in it ( [ame=http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CPLMG86/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i02?ie=UTF8&psc=1]Amazon.com: [NFC/Google Wallet Capable] Anker® 5200mAh Replacement Extended Battery for Samsung Galaxy S4, GT-I9505, SCH-I545(Verizon), SGH-I337(AT&T), SGH-M919(T-Mobile), SPH-L720(Sprint) + Black Cover [18-Month Warranty]: Cell Phones & Accessories[/ame] ). 48hrs of regular use before needing a charge, which is nice. $24 well spent. :)

Though, it's not as thin as the Note 3 I'm sure. Little bump out in the back for the battery, feels like an iPhone with a Mophie Juicepack.

The S4/Note 3 are the only phones out of the lot with removable batteries AFAIK. Otherwise it wouldn't be an issue. It's just stupid that the manufacturers are crippling these phones like this.

True that.

Also, forgot to mention this about the Nexus 5:

Android is fast and powerful yet simple to use. From the home screen, say “Ok Google” to start a voice search, get directions or play a song. Focus on getting stuff done without having to think about the technology underneath.

Always on, always listening.
 
I am now confused between LG G2 or Nexus5 ! I am using Nexus 4 right now. LG G2 has more battery juice, similar processor and also a better camera than Nexus 5.
 
Given those specs, $400 for the 32GB UNLOCKED model is definitely a steal when you compare it to prices of comparable phones.
