I'm tempted to get one but am worried about the bad camera reviews... Is it really that bad? How does the phone feel size-wise? Thanks.
The phone feels nice, size wise. I'm a fellow with big palms and stubby fingers, and it feels just fine. In an effort to answer both questions at once.. http://i.imgur.com/tU642P1.jpg
Could you put a ruler next to the pen? Can't figure out how big it is :)
The notepad looks like a standard US 11x8.5 in - perhaps that's good enough reference?
I got mine this week as well. The camera is about what you expect from the reviews - acceptable, but not amazing. The biggest problem is start-up and focus lag when using the camera, but I read at least one review indicating that an update is coming out soon to address this.
I'm happy with it size-wise, it feels about the same as the S3 I had before it (but with speed and screen noticeably improved)
How's the audio in terms of music through ear buds or car speakers? I know it won't compare to my HTC One but wondering how much of a dropoff.
How well do VOIP apps work? Is the functionality of the device hampered by lack of a Google+ account? What are your impressions of its battery life?
I have a Nexus 4. The only complain is the quick draining battery. How is the battery on your Nexus 5?
In the 1 day i have had it, my observation is that battery seems to be an issue... as an anecdote: at 90% charge, it shows the following "3h 51m 9s on battery". And in the breakdown allocation, it shows "Screen" as taking 61% of the total. [This is with just the default settings the phone came with.]
