The Complete Worthy Package!!
By Shashank Chavanon
Hi friends,
My info should help you decide making the right choice.!
?Cons:
No in built FM
12(Actually 12.28) GB is all you to get to play around with your files and Data.
No micro SD slot(Non-expandable storage)
Loudspeaker is on the quiet side
Non user-replaceable battery
Comparatively less battery life
Low Light Camera is 7.5/10
?Pros:
10/10 Most affordable phone with fastest Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset till the date.
10/10 "Ok Google" that is Google Now is much smarter now!!
10/10 First to get Google Android updates
10/10 Extremely fair Pricing
10/10 Excellent Display
10/10 Classy Design
8.5/10 Good call quality
9/10 Catches WIFI Signal even at relatively long distances
8/10 Battery Backup lasts for a around ~2 days
8.5/10 Music Quality
10/10 Hassle free stream of 1080p HD Movies
10/10 No lags on HD Games
9/10 Voice dialing works without internet/data and understands neutral Indian Accents flawlessly
9/10 Camera with optical image stabilization also Photo Spehere (360 degrees photo-shot) and 180 degrees Panorama shot very decent
8.5/10 USB host support, USB on-the-go support this time (Third party apps can give full support)
So overall this is really Beast phone that if you want to purchase the Best phone in this budget then this is the only choice I think!
You don't need a film star to promote this phone.
People who use it will recommend this to their friends and family.!
Read this - otherwise you will regret that you don't have such a spectacular phone
By Hitesh Kumaron
let me first get rid of those who gives one or two star.....I know,initially phone comes with some glitches.Yes that is also unacceptable from Google But all those issue are now rectified in progressive updates i'm in Lollipop v 5.0.2 and feels great having such an astounding phone.Till today none of other phone get the taste of Lollipop yet recall lollipop was released on 12 Nov 2014...
Any phone is dead if it does not get update with time...think twice any phone get better than Nexus 5 in term of Updates
pros....(Some of you might haven't noticed this..till you have not this in your hand)
1. phone comes with 4.95 inch display with 445ppi which almost cover 71% of phone you are thinking whats new in this..
### 1. narrow bezels means screen is almost edge to edge
### 2. ips display are much brighter than super Amoled but lacks accurate color reproduction....Nexus has IPS+ display even better than super Amoled in some points
### 3. due to narrow Bezels height of this device is comparable to other 4.5 inch products available in the market eg. Canvas A1 and Nexus has same height 132mm
2. Google phone means Direct update with no modification #fact 4.3 JB,4.4.4 KitKat and Lollipop all are baked on nexus 5
3. Supports all bands yes all because single product is launched Globally this makes it unsusceptible to tropical location
4. One MOST IMP. thing is Nexus 5 is devloper phone means......... even after the official support period you can get faster unofficial updates from after market rom makers like cyanogenMod,AOKP,Omni,Paranoid etc.
5. At that time and price only one phone come with OIS+.This comes very handy when you are shooting videos
6. LTE under 30k ...... now u can get LTE at ONLY Rs6999 BUT WAIT wait every components has its class here class refers to quality for Eg. Iphone 6 has only 8mp camera (ipad onle 3.2mp) but beat the hell out of other 16mp(nearly double) and (*** components in this case is type of lenses used)
7. Performance is unquestionable.....i never ever feels my phone slow,sluggish or whatever
8. LI-POLY better than LI-ION stand last in term of shelf life as every advantage has disadvantage too li-poly batteries does not has charge density as high as li-ion result in poor battery backup
may be these points are enough to convince an intellectual person
cons (nothing is perfect)
if you play around half of your time then go with 32 gb model,purchase power bank for extra juice and if your an audiophile then go with other doubly stereo speaker phones
THATS ALL
Nexus 5 -- Beauty with Beast -- the best phone I have had so far
Disclaimer -- this review is not for those who always goes with paper specs and are hungry for performance.....this phone is more than sufficient for satisfying needs of daily task encounter

Killer Phone at this price
By Pankaj Panigrahion
I didn't buy this on fipkart as it was not available then , i am writing this review after using the phone for 10 days. I have also got the kitkat update 4.4.2 .
pros :
a). The processor is a beast. it handles anything very smoothly , without a single lag.
b). the screen is awesome. you would love to watch movies & pictures in this phone. the 4.95 inch screen full hd screen with 445 ppi is the best you can have.
c). adreno 330 gpu does amazing work in handling all the graphics
d). 2gb ram
e) kitkat gives a wonderful android experience
f) camera is good , may not be the best in low lighting otherwise good, specially after the update . The HDR+ feature works very nicely.
g) if you love gaming , then you will love the phone .
h) reading news & magazines feels great in this phone due to the large screen with high resolution.
i) it is very light . back panel gives a nice grip.
cons
a) the major con is the battery. it has a battery of 2300 mah , which is normally good. but this phone has a 5inch screen with full HD, so the sreen drains a lot of battery. nexus 4 had 2100 mah battery. Nexus 5 should have a maor jump in battery. LG G2 has a 3000 mah battery which has the same processor & a 5.2 inch screen. Something like that would have been better. But it still manages to give backup for nearly a day.
b) auto brightness of the phone works too well. it gives you more brightness than required , eventually draining your battery
c) the speaker sound is very clear but a bit low. could have been better.
d) auto rotation feature of screen sometimes doesn't work that well, it is very rare though.
TIPS for saving battery
1) switch off wifi scanning(this is a feature to scan for wifi even if the the wifi is off)
2) don't use auto brightness , use manual instead
3) switch to 3G/2G if you are not using LTE network
4) turn on locations(GPS) only when required.
I would suggest to buy this phone as it is a great deal at this price. I would give it a 5 star only if they would have given a more powerful battery

Simply Put - THIS IS AWESOME
By ANISH paion
We all spend a hell a lot of money over mobile phones expecting value for money and our expectations &......Nexus 5 nails this aspect!!!
POSITIVES:
1)Simply the best phone in this price range,no other phone even comes remotely close.
2)All features included in Nexus 5 are on par or better than the Premium phones available but Nexus 5 will cost you hell a lot lessss and am talking big money (10k less)
3)Kitkat 4.4.2:Only available for nexus phones,which means you are atleast 3 months ahead of all other phone manufacturers in terms of software.
4)Nexus being a flagship phone of Google means it will be the FIRST one to get direct/timely updates from Google as and when it releases any.
5)The Snapdragon 800,Adreno 330 and 2GB Ram all together form a bunch of specifications which are currently the best in the world in handling your phone's Performance,Graphics and Speed.
6)Most of us want a phone which has no lag no matter whatever we throw at it and Nexus 5 is THAT phone.No hangups,No lags!
7)FEATHER-WEIGHT
8)What I absolutely love about this phone is the endearing GOOGLE NOW,this voice command unit delivers BANG ON results and makes this phone so much fun to be around with.
NEGATIVES:
1)Not for people who want high-tech cameras.I would suggest those people to go and buy high end phones like NOTE 3 or LUMIA 1020 and end up spending 15k more for it.
Having said that it has a pretty decent camera (after 4.4.2 update) and makes no difference to a normal user and its pretty cool with a lot of tools to play around with your pics.
2)Battery should have been better considering it is a high end phone but vast improvement over nexus 4 and hangs on till the end of the day so not that big an issue
TIPS TO SAVE BATTERY:
1)Turn off location updates or switch it to battery saving mode.
2)Turn off NFC when not using it.
3)Default brightness is a bit too bright,reducing it will save much of your battery juice.
4)Turn off wifi when not in use.
5)Running phone in ART environment.
Doing all these things will increase your battery by atleast 2-4 hours which then suddenly becomes not that bad at all.
The phone is well worth your money probably more than that,It is highly recommended for a smartphone lover!

Awesome smartphone
By Omkar41297on
Now there is other options for smartphones rather than nexus 5
Great deal, great prodict
By Happy User of the Phone.on
Its been one year , that I ordered(ordered on 27th Nov'14) nexus 5 from snapdeal. That time, I got it for 28000. The phone was delivered on 29th Nov'14. That was very quick delivery. Packaging was good. Still no complaints with the phone. I loved Nexus 5. Its a little over priced, but when you use it you feel, it is worth it . Would totally recommend to buy this product.
Nice!!!!!!!!!!!
