briggaman Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I'm very happy I went with the LG G2 now. Apart from the proce and not being pure Android, the LG G2 blows the Nexus 5 out of the water in every departmemt. I picked it up on release day and absolutely love it. The button on the back isn't anything special but I got used to it very quickly. The screen is glorious though and the feel of the LG G2 is just brilliant. Plus the battery life has been amazing, which is a key thing for me in a phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lions_Roar Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 So the battery's are the same in both the 16gb and the 32gb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrenm Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Ordered a white 32GB at 18.14 :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lions_Roar Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Mines confirmed now! With regards to saying the g2 blows it out of the water, I don't agree with that. It seems the only thing would be the camera. I've got an 8mp camera now and its perfectly good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the fact that the bezel is so slim on the LG G2 and the screen size too. I think it's well worth the extra for those things alone but there is no doubt that people will be happy with the Nexus 5. I just think the LG G2 is a superior phone, as you would expect given the price difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I'm with Brigga. Will get a g2 next. Nexus 5 seems a bit dull and lacking ever so slightly but I suppose that's reflected in the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 The price is more to do with Google not caring about having a margin on the device. Tempted to but the 5 just because, but there is nothing wrong with my 4 and the iPad mini looks lovely. Dunno what to splurge on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenm Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I'm intrigued by how good some of the photos are that have been taken with nexus 5s. For actually getting light on to the sensor, lower mp is better, so the nexus 5 may well have a better camera than the g2. Have to wait for some comparisons though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lions_Roar Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Did anyone really expect it to be better than the g2? For its price its a cracking phone. Screen and processor are up their with the best. The bezel has been described as surprisingly thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mykeyb Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 When the Nexus 5 went live on the Play Store yesterday one bellend in a forum I was in was moaning because he thought £299.00 was a bit steep.......so £20.00 more than the Nexus 4 with a vastly superior set of hardware. Great news that CPW are selling them simfree for £295.00, should really help with getting it into the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I'm starting to come round to the design of the white n5, its actually quite an elegant looking thing. Will still probably plump for a white g2 due to the better camera, battery, larger screen and thinner bezels but the n5 has slightly better ppi on a slightly smaller screen and a slightly smaller form factor than the g2. Hmmmmm, I don't know now, I guess if finances are an issue when I come to buy then I think I'd be more than willing to go for a white n5 but the g2 just nudges it for me. Two fantastic phones.

mykeyb Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 The G2 is a stunning phone and would have been my choice had the N5 not been released 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpid Posted November 1, 2013 Administrator Share Posted November 1, 2013 It's nice being able to choose from a range of phones with different sizes and features isn't it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
