Google Nexus 5 Editor Rating:
I personally have a soft spot for pure Android experience and that's what you get with Nexus devices. Nexus 5 is definitely an upgrade over the Nexus 4 in basically every way. The device runs great and probably will for a long time thanks to updates straight from Google. Camera was a huge issue with the Nexus 4, I can't emphasize that enough, 8-megapixel OIS shooter in Nexus 5 isn't perfect, but it's a lot better than what you get with Nexus 4's camera offering. I also dig the industrial design of the device though that's not for everyone. This device will be able to handle basically whatever you throw at it, though of course it has some weak points. Battery life certainly could be better for example, no doubt about it. If you're an Android purist and you like Google's Android OS without any additions to it, this is the device for you.
