Hi all

I ordered the nexus 5 as I have both the nexus 7's and I love them. However after reading a few reviews alot of them are saying that the battery and camera are poor!

Are they as bad as some reviews make out?

Thanks Chris

No, they arent. You couldve checked the 10 threads that have Nexus 5 photos posted in them, and a battery thread which is on the main page and has like 200 pages of people's expirience.

The camera is decent, and at least for me the battery life has been phenomenal. Way better than most people make it out to be. I average around 5 hours SOT, and can go 2 full days on a charge no problem. Buuuut everybody uses their phones different so YMMV.

I have no idea what you're doing. I get around 2. This is with location and sync off. Oh, and underclocked to 1.5GHz.

That leads me to another question, if you have to charge it every day will the battery not start to deteriorate after a few months?

Few years, yes. What smartphone do you NOT have to charger every day? (Besides the Maxx)

Hi,

In general we bought a phone (or not) after seeing some reviews, not before... :D

Take a look here:

Maybe it will make you feel better while waiting your N5

    camera is great if you actually know how to use a camera. if you dont know how, then its better than average. battery life i get 5-6 hours sot every battery cycle, heavy use, at 2260mhz, no undervolting nor underclocking.
