The Nexus 5 is now available, and many of you will rush on their screen to try to book a (if not already done). Like last year, if you want a Nexus phone, you should make the play Store Google because buy elsewhere will pâs easy. Involved, excellent value for money Nexus 5. You get a phone on top for much less than the competition.
Talking about the Full HD screen Nexus 5
As we have known for a while, the Nexus 5 is equipped with a 4.95-inch IPS screen with a Full HD resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels and a pixel density of 445 ppi pixel density slightly higher the other 5-inch smartphones like the Galaxy S4 or the HTC One. But it is enough to brag about, right? Nevertheless, it is very likely that we will call anyway the new Nexus Smartphone 5 inch because of us, we do not see any differences between screen 4.95 and 5 inches.
We are very interested to touch technologies lately, and we are pleased to see that the Nexus screen has five technology "in-cell touch" which allows faster recognition of touch, a better outdoor visibility and more detailed images. Technology "in-cell touch" is still new, having been used for the first time by the LG Optimus G and iPhone 5 which has an LG screen also. This technology is now found on the AMOLED screens from Samsung.
Technology "in-cell touch" has several major advantages. It allows for example to manufacturers to get rid of the extra layer which is usually above the screen and directly integrate the touch layer on the screen. This removes a rather thick layer on the screen, making the end product more and reducing the thickness (about 1mm) gives the impression to the user to interact more directly with the screen. In addition, the light reaches the screen more easily, which reduces energy consumption.
This famous Snapdragon 800 is also part
There is not much to say about the Snapdragon processor 800, except that the performance flagship Qualcomm is unmatched when you write this article. Excluding the new Apple processor.
We have already had the opportunity to test several devices with the processor, and you can be sure that even overlays that some manufacturers like to add Android can not slow it down so much that the Google Nexus 5 that uses a stock Android 4.4 KitKat will be very fluid. This means that even the latest and most powerful games will run smoothly, thanks to the powerful Adreno 330 GPU.
The storage memory is it the weak point of the Nexus 5?
Ah, memory. This particular may be the weak point of the Nexus 5. The 2G0 RAM probably suffice, despite the fact that many devices that will be released in 2014 will possess 3GB of RAM. So you could say that nexus5 is not fully prepared for the future, but it should not stop you from buying it, because believe me 2GB than enough to turn a smartphone, besides the iPhone 5S only ship 1GB of RAM and it does not prevent it to be powerful.
By cons there is a point that does not really like us on Nexus 5. It is once again available with 16GB or 32GB of internal storage. Worse, Google still hate the idea of expanding the storage space with a microSD slot. Anyway, the amount of storage space is more than enough for some, especially now that the cloud storage is widespread. Nevertheless, some applications weigh over 1GB and it prompts us to ask whether this type of storage is not obsolete. The cloud can not host your applications after all, at least not yet.
Anyway, the 32GB version should suffice for most users, but the greedy storage space feel a little ignored.
A camera equipped with the OIS technology is available on the Nexus 5 LG and Google
If you own a Nexus 4 , you know that the camera was clearly the most disappointing part of the Smartphone. Google and LG seem to fix this on the Nexus 5, which is not surprising given that Google has been working hard on the software, and that the work of LG in terms of material was well on the LG G2.
About LG G2, the press release announced that the Nexus has a 5 OIS unit identical to the flagship LG. Some of you may be disappointed that the camera is "only 8 megapixels," but you should know that the number of pixels has little influence on the picture quality. The new camera allows "the longer exposure time, less blur and less noise."
LG and Google are going to say that "no device rivals the Nexus 5 in low light conditions." No test is out for now, so we can not confirm these claims. We prefer anyway judge for ourselves.
On top of that, the Nexus 5 + should provide improved HDR mode that would take multiple pictures at the same time and merge them to create a great picture with a most beautiful play of colors and lights. All thanks to the exposure and color data collected. That tells you something?
Enough energy to last the whole day?
When we say that memory is the Achilles heel of the Nexus 5, we had forgotten the poor battery life of the Nexus 4. The previous Nexus had a battery of 2100 mAh. Although the Nexus 5 has a 2300mAh Li-Polymer battery, you probably expect a 3000mAh battery as this is what has the LG G2 model on which the Nexus 5 is based. It is a pity that the battery G2 is really great.
Before you accuse us of nitpicking, you must consider the following facts: The Nexus 4 was equipped with a 720p screen, while the Nexus 5 features a 1080p screen. Considering that the display is what consumes the most energy, you can really ask what is the battery life of the Nexus 5. Fortunately, it appears that Google will improve the core and the performance of Android 4.4 KitKat, which (hopefully) means that the battery problems belong to the past with the 4.4 version of Android.
But on the other hand, one might think that the Snapdragon processor 800 is deemed not to consume a lot of battery power can help to have a better battery life than what can be expected of a battery of 2300 mAh. In addition, I would have tested the Nexus 5 myself before I finally decide on this. So I'll tell you more in a few days during my test.
The Nexus 5 is lighter than the Nexus 4
Although Nexus has 5 more than the Nexus 4, Google and LG screen reproduced the magic of Moto X. Despite the larger screen, the dimensions are reasonable. In other words, you get a bigger screen for a space just above. The dimensions of the Nexus 5 are so 137.84 × 69.17 × 8.59mm. These figures speak for themselves, but if you compare them with the dimensions of the Nexus 4 (133.9 × 68.7 × 9.1mm), you will see that the difference is not obvious. Even better, LG has managed to reduce the weight of Nexus 5. It weighs 130 grams, a slight improvement compared to 139 grams of the Nexus 4.
However, as some of you will quickly notice me, the Nexus 5 is also a bit thicker with 8.59 mm. This is still much less than some devices, and this is the perfect weight of our experience. Yes, you read correctly, we are not fans of ultrathin design, which well as elegant, are impractical.
A few words about the connectivity
It usually pays little attention to the connectivity of smartphones, but it's only because we consider these mandatory options. Except when they are not in the game. For example, the lack of 4G LTE on the Nexus 4 had been noticed. As might be expected, the Nexus 5 fills this gap and provide incredible speeds. That said, we need to mention 4G LTE connectivity says a lot about the frustration we felt noting his absence during the release of the Nexus 4.
The rest of the connectivity is altogether traditional, at least for a Nexus. Wi-Fi, GPS, NFC and wireless charging (probably based on the Qi standard).
Nexus 5: A Smartphone worthy of being selected?
If you've read this far, it is reasonable to assume that you're at least somewhat interested in the Nexus 5. The Google duo LG he again managed to provide an apparatus to incredible value for money? The answer is yes. At present, find an equivalent phone at the same price is impossible. The characteristics of the Nexus are top 5, and the presence of Android 4.4 KitKat and updates to come make it a safe choice for advanced users.
The Nexus 5 will he be as rare as the Nexus 4?
The only possible fault Nexus 5 is its availability. The Nexus 4, although also attractive at the time was never sold as well as the flagship smartphone Samsung, Apple and HTC. Simply because it was extremely difficult to obtain. Fortunately, LG and Google seem to have learned from their mistakes because the device is already pre-order. Even better, the duo plans to sell the device in stores in several regions of the world. This includes Central America, South America, Europe and the Middle East from November. All this at an unbeatable price of 349 euros for the 16GB version and 399 euros for the 32 GB version can hardly do better.
