If you know me or just read this blog often, you already know I’m an android fan and I love Nexus devices.
Before Nexus 5 I was using Sony Xperia Arc, and it is a great phone too.
My Device: Nexus 5
I’ve got 32 GB, black colored, Nexus 5 from United States. It works well with my Vodafone network here in India, with no rooting and other tedious stuffs. Get the phone, insert the sim(micro sim), and it works.
My Review
I’m using Nexus 5 from 4 days now, this is what I felt so far:
1. It’s amazing to hold in hand! I’ve previously used HTC, Sony Xperia Arc, Nokia – above all this one feels lightweight and thoroughly gripped.
2. KitKat is absolutely sweet. Applications open and close faster than in previous versions. The credit also goes to Nexus 5’s 2 GB RAM and Qualcomm Snapdragon™ 800, 2.26GHz CPU, also the Adreno 330, 450MHz GPU.
My first computer(just few years back), had only 256 MB of RAM! My recent Computer( Dell Studio XPS 8100 ) has 8GB of RAM – compared to mobile phone, it looks very less now 🙂
3. The design of the phone is really impressive. Atleast the black variant of the device has a good built. I specially liked the positioning of the loud speakers. Sony Xpera Arc had speakers in the backside – if you’ve placed the phone on the table with phone facing up, loud speakers would get jammed behind the phone.
4. Usually Nexus devices doesn’t come with super power cameras. But Nexus 5 has a decent one – considering its retail price.
