High specced and premium are two different things - my Nexus5 is a great phone, but my 2 year old iPhone5 is still more usable, looks better and has more apps (that I actually use).

Nexus 5 is a great deal - I just would not consider it premium (even when I bought it last Nov).




I use a Nexus 5 as well. Best phone I've ever owned (and I've had an iPhone before). What exactly makes the iPhone "more usable"? I have an iPad Mini Retina and Nexus 7 too. The iPad wasn't worth twice the price of the N7 but I had to buy it for development.


Disagree. I have a Nexus 5, the wife an iPhone 5S. Her next phone is going to be a Nexus phone.

Google Now and the rest of Google's ecosystem is too convenient.

She's always fighting with her phone and the restrictions Apple puts in place, and she uses her Nexus 7 tablet more than her phone...
