[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colin1006:
I've decided to get a new phone, moving from the iPhone 4s. I ordered a Moto X dev edition the other day, but now I'm debating whether I might prefer the Nexus 5. One of the big things that I was hoping for with the Moto X is the battery life (as well as the touchless control and the active display, but those can be somewhat replicated through other methods). So I was wondering what people thought of the Nexus 5 and how their battery life compares. I've read good things about Franco's kernal, and I'd probably go straight into rooted and onto a custom kernal/rom after deciding to keep it. But I'm not sure it's worth dealing with the cost of returning one of them, especially if the Nexus won't hold up.

Thoughts? Thanks

If I were you I'd watch some YouTube video comparisons. Type in "Nexus 5 vs Moto X". Each phone has it's pros and con's. Its simply a matter of which pro and con you can deal with. Keep in mind that the Moto X was developed under ownership of Google and now Lenovo owns Motorola.

Note: You might not have the timely updates as before when Google owned the Moto X and you might not even get the next version of Android (whenever its released) whereas the Nexus 5 is a shoe in.

First and foremost, these threads aren't allowed and it will likely get closed very soon.

Now that that's out of the way, I have both the Moto X and the Nexus 5. Long story short, I prefer the Moto X pretty much across the board. It has better battery life, a far richer display, better in hand feel, and isn't much slower than the N5. Not to mention all the really cool exclusive features. The N5 is a great device and I'm really glad I bought mine, but my Moto X gets the most use.

I have both Moto X and Nexus 5 currently.

After using the Nexus 5 for a month or two, then going back to the Moto X, I can see the Moto X stutter a little.

I do however miss the Moto X Active Notification, but the screen on the Nexus 5 pulls me back.

I personally prefer the Nexus 5 over my Moto X, but that's just me. You can't really base your decision off what other people think, because we all expect our phones to optimally perform better at different tasks. See if you can use a Demo at a local store or something and figure it out for yourself is always going to be your best bet.

I really think people who have battery issues on the N5 either have a defective device or are doing something wrong. I get phenomenal battery life out of mine, 5+ hrs SOT, 2 days on a charge, really nothing to complain about there. I'm not even doing anything special, just stock rooted. I do get better life out of my Moto X, but the N5 is a very close second. Both of them last a lot longer than my HTC One or GS4 ever did.

I'd like to know what your settings are like. I can't get more than 3.5-4 hours of sot with a little over a days usage. I'm not doubting you I'd just like to get battery life close to what you are getting. Thanks.

My wife has clung to her iPhone 4. Got an S2...quickly returned to her iPhone and bad mouths android as glitchy and difficult. Then she played with my X and wants one bad now.

I've had mine 3 months....and now am faced with possibly giving her mine and buying any other phone under the sun. I did my homework the first time and picked the X....and now I can rethink and get an N5, G2, HTC one or S4 (never...hate Samsung now).....but guess what? Took an hour of thought.....and again.....I don't want another phone. She gets an X and I'm keeping mine. ;)

I prefer the N5 I've had both. On the display front there is no comparison. By that I mean the N5 is much nicer: brighter, crisper, color accurate (this difference is huge) and more legible outdoors in bright light. As for the speed the N5 is snappier/faster. Battery life equal between the 2. The N5 camera takes better pictures. The X speaker is much nicer than the N5. The N5 is easier to grip, the X is slippery in my hand. The above is of my opinion, good luck!

I'm not an owner yet, I've ordered it, though I was looking to see if people thought that it would be worth the hassle and slight cost of ordering the Nexus 5 and then returning whichever I didn't want to keep. Or whether I should just stick with the Moto X. I saw a thread in the Moto X forum, and wanted to see what you guys over here thought.

I decided definitively on the switch to Android when I got a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 (I wanted the stylus), and I like playing with the dev stuff (rooted, running Clean Rom, though the dev support is kind of small for the device because it's samsung and expensive). It's kind of a question of whether or not the 5" screen is ideal, and whether the dev support for the N5 outranks the added features of the Moto X. (Also, I kind of want Halo, though it appears that neither have that through official dev support at the moment.) And whether I could get the battery life out of the N5 that I would want. Because an awesome phone is useless to me if it won't last. That's part of why I ordered the Moto X; I might lose some dev support, but I can have an awesome experience all day, and customization is going to be fine either way, except for added features.

I'm coming from a S3......

the Nexus 5 has a better battery life.

I was afraid to upgrade because of the battery life but it's way better !

Just listening music/podcast on the S3 was draining the battery badly,

and overnight I'm losing only 3% on the N5 vs a lot more on the S3 (even with the official 3000mah battery)

However, the battery life on the N5 could be more awesome if Google could correct some wakelocks bug

You're comparing a 700 dollar phone to a phone half it's price. Nexus devices are cheap.....some sacrifices have to be made.

Not bad mouthing nexus....i own an N7....love it!

No doubt that the Nexus has FAR superior development. If that's important ...the N5 is for you.

Otherwise the X compares or beats it on anything else. IMHO. :)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
FYI the processor in the Moto X really isn't that much slower than the N5. The only way to tell is by doing a side by side. In normal use, the Moto X seems every bit as fast, snappy, and fluid as the N5. People really need to get the whole specs thing out of their minds. It's faster than both the GS4 and HTC One. Motorola optimized the crap out of the X and it shows.

How many times would you like to be proven wrong about this?

http://anandtech.com/show/7517/google-nexus-5-review/3

If you have trouble understanding how proper testing conditions work please let me know. The dual core Moto X battery life falls behind and certainly the Gs4 as well.

Maybe in your hands under your conditions things are different but one thing is absolutely clear: the Nexus 5 has greater potential for battery life then the phones you champion for their battery life.

Maybe its time to switch your rhetoric to a phone that actually has better battery life, like you know the Note 3 and LG G2. Just a suggestion.

Why would we compare our own non test condition battery stats? Do I know wat you're using or brightness is or any number of factors for that matter?

But wait! There are people out there who's very job is to compare these things as fairly as humanly possible. They have no bias or subjective opinion either, which can't really be said of phone owners like us.

Step in Anandtech. Easily the most reputable hardware site around with perfectly clear and equal testing conditions.

The Anand test is very revealing and a much better test environment than a random user posting a battery life screen shot.....

I've had both phones and in my usage the battery life was very similar between the 2. Of course ones usage, apps, screen brightness, and 47 other factors play a part.... That's why Anands test is NOT subjective.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
LOL. Benchmarks of any kind are NOT reliable indications of user experience. Come on man.....you can't be serious?

I said "on average". Meaning look at say 100 peoples screen shots....average the times they get. And there you have REAL world usage. Not some "ideal" in house benchmark tests. They mean nothing to real people.

Then again.....some believe everything they read on the always reliable internet.

So...let's agree to disagree. Real people know the Moto x is near the top in battery life. Coming very close to phones with much higher capacity batteries too. Why? Dual core...not quad. 720p screen. Slightly smaller screen than most those other top phones.

Anyway....I'm done. People want an N5...great....its a nice phone for sure. I'm not here to discourage that. ;)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
These aren't even "benchmarks" they are battery tests designed to emulate constant browsing or video play back with exacting brightness and settings between phones. Nothing more, nothing less. There is no hidden agenda, and there is no conspiracy. There's only the numbers.

How would you have them test more fairly?

Most of what you say is true about people being misinformed. You might want to reevaluate that.

Meanwhile we can keep trying to help "real people" get the most out of whichever phone and battery they have.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
The N5 does NOT have battery problems. This is two full days of use. 3 hrs screen time, 2 hours worth of phone calls and probably 1.5 hrs streaming spotify on extreme quality. I still have 30% left and can probably get another 1.5 - 2hrs screen time if I wanted. This is awesome battery life any way you look at it.

OK. Last post here for me. This is silly.....and I'm swimming in enemy waters here anyway. ;) We're all proud of our phones...etc...etc.

If your test you found is so spot on.....then how come the others here

...like you and me....real people I call them, you call us what you will.....have different results, that seem to disagree with your one Almighty benchmark?

How come if you simply browse the N5 battery threads.....then head on over and browse the Moto x battery threads.....ON AVERAGE ....the Moto x times our fellow xda users post are higher than the N5 battery times. Again....on average. Are you saying most the N5 people are doing something wrong? Yet you've implied you got it all figured out.....even tho you won't share a screen shot? A meaningful screen shot, like Gsam.....since it shows your average times at the bottom now...not just a screen of one lucky battery day to go on.
