But the Google Nexus 5 looks and feels quite different from the Nexus 4. The glass-topped shiny back has been traded-in for matt plastic. It may sound sound too impressive

The Google Nexus 5 is well-made
But it's not quite as impressive in-hand as the unibody aluminium HTC One. There's a seam around the phone's edge too
Making it look less pristine than Nokia's plastic Lumia phones also. And though manufacturer LG has made the frame as narrow as possible for a five inch display
You should also try out a phone this size if you're used to much smaller mobiles
The question is then, have LG and Google tried too hard here? Attempting to build 'one phone to rule them all' and sell it to you for less is a very difficult task indeed.While we don't think the Nexus 5 outperforms some of this year's other Android flags...
Gorgeous screen, Android 4.4 is the best version yet, Nexus phones get updates straight from Google, Tightly integrated voice control, Solid build quality, Ultra-competitive $350 price
Boring design, Lacks the wow factor, The camera, though improved, isn't fantastic, SMS integration into Hangouts needs work, Battery life is inconsistent
To judge the Nexus 5, we need return to the Nexus 4 for a moment. For all its greatness, the year-old phone failed to break into the mainstream, as regular buyers still flocked to Samsung for their Android smartphone fun. Is the Nexus 5 Google's breakou...

The Google Nexus 5 is an excellent choice if you want a high-end Android phone but don't want to spend £500. It has a great screen, great software and as much power as the top-end Androids. It doesn't have the best camera or the best battery life, but ...
