[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wideasleep1:
I grabbed a bank as opposed to a spare battery for my Sensation, mainly due to cost. When these phones are new, the 'new' OEM batteries to fit are pricey, and don't drop until the phone is nearly a year old or older, or when third party cells hit the market. A bank, available for under $10 on fleabay, solves this issue for many phones to come, and since they're so cheap, you can afford to buy a few for the car, RV, briefcase, etc. and have extra power anytime, independent of your phone model. (thank gawd for 5V USB standard!). Long before I'd blow $60+ on a silly wireless charger, I'd blow it on a few banks. :)

Negative. That's AMOLED only, and the 'savings' is hotly debated.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KoRRo89:
as someone stated amoled screens save much battery when black because they aren't backlit, when coming to tft or ips panels it's slightly different, those panel could be normally black or normally white, so (exept for backlight) they could consume no energy to remain black or white depending of the type of screen. i have no accurate data, but from the little i know most of the actual screen are normally white, so lighter themes shoul use less power than darker themes, but anyway it's a little difference since backlight eats much more power than pixels.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hand76:
I hate to harp on a name but anyone else become slightly sick to their stomach when reading the name Nexus 4 2013?

It's not only sounds dumb but is factually wrong when looking at the screen size and version number of this new device. There is no legitimate or logical reason to call it that.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eman3316@optonline.net:
I hate it. Hate it for the the Nexus 7 as well.

Reminds me of when Apple named the iPad the New iPad. Thought it was the dumbest name ever and know it is like Google is following suite.

I actually like names for the devices and it makes it easier to identify what someone is talking about or even selling.

Looking for accessories for my Nexus 7 (New Gen) was quite annoying.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hand76:
I'm with you eman3316@optonline.net.

And I would even go a step further and venture to say that a device holding the Nexus 5 name would appeal to more people over a device called Nexus 4 again. (even with 2013 added on)

Nexus 5 sounds fresh and new, Nexus 4 is old hat.

Just from a marketing standpoint I don't think it makes sense.

And if Google wants to get away from naming devices with numbers that's fine, use a name. No one would have a problem with that. /rant

Thank you, and have a great day :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NCguy:
If you're talking about the name I don't think this anything to do with the person making the comment and everything to do with the potential name. So if you can't make comments about the name then what's fair game? And how much are you allowed to discuss each aspect of the phone? I guess you need to tell us what is really important and how much we can discuss each item. Thanks.

If you're not talking about the name, you weren't specific, then ignore this comment.

BTW, I didn't really notice where the activity was so high that focusing on something like the potential name was disrupting any "hot" conversation.

DigitalOptics now seems to confirm it's not the purported snazzy Lytro-like MEMS sensor:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parmend:
If it supports sprint lte bands does that mean sprint would activate it? Just curious
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Indiwiz:
So this means the N5 doesn't sport the same camera from the Meizu MX3, correct?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wideasleep1:
From current indications..the sensor itself may be the Sony mentioned in the first flurry of speculation, but this sensor by itself does not constitute the featureset suggested by the flurry...so it depends what what means by 'same camera'. Quick metaphor I can come up with is a Lexus is a Toyota, but surely they are not the 'same'.

http://www.doc.com/Products/Documents/mems_cam_DOC8324F_C_Feb_2013.pdf

The sensor itself is the Sony, reported by some to be 'common', whereas the supporting architecture for MEMS is added by DigitalOptics.

Actually, just like the G2. They look identical from the bottom with the exception of the 3.5 mm jack (which is on the bottom on the G2 and top for this nexus).

The Nexus 7 speakers are on the back of the tablet, near the bottom but not actually on the bottom.

I just got my sister a G2 yesterday, it's a fantastic device. I'm very happy the next nexus is based on it. With an AOSP ROM on it, I'd actually consider it for myself. Very well built... And that screen is the best I've seen. Side by side it's better than the One, which I just got my mom. I've got high expectations for the new nexus now.

I think I find that the battery is not as bad as the Nexus 4.

According to a Nexus 4 service manual (https://www.dropbox.com/s/lssh... ), when having a voice call at a GSM only network, the 2150 mAh battery capacity decreases at about 400 mAh/h, which mathematically means that its talk time is approximately about 5 hours 22.5 minutes.

In contrast, according to the new Nexus service manual, the new Nexus' 2300mAh battery drains slower at 340 mAh/h, which mathematically means that its talk time is approximately about 6 hours 46 minutes.

Assuming that LG performed a similar or the same test on both devices, the new Nexus lasts 25% longer than the Nexus 4

Nexus 5 starts looking more and more disappointing the more I learn about it. Smaller screen, likely lower quality camera, likely lower quality screen, no removable battery... Getting tempted to buy a Galaxy S4 instead. :(

I'd buy a G2 but the button placement is so bad. I really pinned my hopes on the N5 after my disappointment with the Note 3 (once I actually tried to use it, it was too big).

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TKardinal:
Sorry I wasn't clear. I was comparing to the LG G2 which this is allegedly based on but seems to get further and further away from as we learn more about it.

Most of the leaks I've seen say five inch screen.

Any individual deviation from the G2 is no big deal. Four "downgrades"? Eh.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NCguy:
To me, some of the features are much more significant than others. But to be fair, if you're comparing a count of features to the G2, then you must give credit to the N5 for:

(no order)

price

pure android

First Kit Kat

side buttons (if you prefer)

wireless charging (exception VZ g1)

Of course its going to be a personal likes/dislikes choice.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TKardinal:
Yup. Everyone has different priorities. I'm certainly not saying the phone sucks. If it works for you, great! I'm just...disappointed and questioning.

There are definitely some advantages to the N5 over the G2. Regarding Pure Android&Kit Kat...well, I'm gonna Root&ROM anyway, but the price is definitely a factor.

Maybe I'll buy it anyway! We'll see! :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NCguy:
As some of the disappointing N5 leaks started to appear I thought about the possibility of instead rooting a G2. Unfortunately, after browsing around, It seems to me that the root/rom community for the G2 at present doesn't seem very robust. :(
