I know that the nexus 4 had some issues in November where it was sold out in 20 minutes then taking Google a while they re-stock. Will this be an issue with the nexus 5 ? Share you're opinions

Yes, it will because of the price a lot of people will buy it. But if the base price is $349 then maybe not as bad.

I'm agreeing with droidlife and that there is no solid rumor of a 2 battery version. Unless it was going to go through the FCC in the past 2 weeks and now it can't. There could be 2 storage versions but who knows.

I don't really see why people need more than 16GB, I have a 32GB sd card in my phone and I haven't put anything on it.
don't see the need for more than 16 GB either...esp with otg cable...

Nexus 4 didn't have OTG support (without custom kernel and external power, which defeats the purpose). I'm still waiting for confirmation for the Nexus 5. OTG drains alot of battery and not the most convenient either, but it is one of the key feature I'm looking for.
The Nexus 4 launch was a failure because Google didn't expect this much demand from the Nexus 4, but Google has learned their lesson and has told LG to make a lot more Nexus 5s for the launch than last years Nexus 4.

I have a 64 gig sd card with 15 gigs left and 16 internal gigs on phone. Hd videos ,hd games take a lot of space plus if you have a little one you tend to take alot of pictures. 16 internal with no sd slot for most people won't cut it. I could fill that up in a weekend.

It really bothers me when people try to make this argument...it's so self-centered, and besides, it's a fallacy. Your argument is this: Because you won't fill up 16gb of storage, it must be true that no one can have any possible reason to fill up 16gb of storage.
Everyone's usage patterns are different. Here's some logic that's not a fallacy: Because there are many people hoping and asking for a 32gb or 64gb option, it must be true that many people need more than 16gb.
Now, here's the part that really angers me. Why don't they just offer the user a choice? 16gb for $299, 32gb for $349, 64gb for $429. How hard can that really be?

You're right, and that makes me mad too. Do they think we all have unlimited data? I certainly don't. Besides, there are plenty of places I go where I don't have the best signal...I'm not going to be watching movies on my phone in my house, or in the middle of the city! I'm going to do it when I'm on a road trip, or on an airplane, when streaming is not an option. Not to mention storing nandroid backups, where cloud storage is never an option.

they probably have like 50 of them so the price is not a issue for them Ebay is generally safe got my droid 2 for 50 bucks
Probably counterfeit

I wouldn't waste my time. These cards are most likely fake. They show up to windows, your phone, or whatever as 32 gb but will really be a lot less. Once at capacity, for example 2gb, extra data becomes corrupted. Having the sandisk logo doesn't mean anything, there is a lot of fakes out there. The general rule is that if somethings too good to be true, it is.

This is very true. The digital camera folks have a lot to say about this. The cards can be formatted way beyond their actual capacity, and then fail dramatically. When they go, they're gone. Here's a couple of articles I found:

IM DYING HERE! so over my apple iphone, its sickening me!
It's a huge BS blame game. AT&T's people claim that Samsung isn't providing the 32GB yet and Samsung claims AT&T hasn't asked for it yet. Of course, there are no "official" releases from either yet, just Twitter, Facebook, and forum replies from people that claim to know. It seams as though AT&T is the only US carrier that said they would carry the 32GB but only "soon" has been hinted as to when. And no one (AND I MEAN NO ONE) at AT&T is willing to talk about it. I'm sure it's like all of the rest of AT&T's screw-ups, they hope it will go away if enough time goes by and people will forget about it.

Because apps cant install to SD card simple as that. This is a bs Google move so what good does an sd card give me if my apps can't use it and with games being 2gb in size now it goes away quick. I have a 64gb card and only few apps installed and I am down to 6gb free space and my SD card hasn't been touched. Piss poor programming by Google by doing this with the OS.

I agree. Even though I went ahead and got a 16 gb, I think its BS that google changed that. Does anyone know why exactly?
I really wish these carriers would pull their heads out of their a** and start being able to offer multiple storage sizes. Even with an SD slot, they can release the fruit phone with multiple choices, why can't we have that same luxury with samsung?
Just my 2 cents.
This is why these android manufacturers can't compete with iPhone. The reason Google did this is for greed. They want you to store all your stuff on their servers so they can mine it for data and deliver you targeted ads. This is their sole business and money maker. Why do you think they made android free in first place.

As an indirect we have almost the same phones as AT&T, we use the same system they use. Just we charge less for the phone. We have the S4 for 149.99. The htc one for 149.99 and the 32gb one for 189.99. The s4 32gb is 189.99 as well when we start to sell it.

I feel you. I mean it's convenient to be able to have external storage. Verizon locks up all their phones boot loaders, it's like a standard for them. For me I don't think cloud storage will be a problem with unlimited data. I don't think Google will give an option for expandable memory. It's a history with their devices that they don't have external SD's. I understand Google's perspective on why they do that but if the storage isn't expandable I feel it they should at least make bigger variants as options for those that do want more memory.

Ya, that is part of my current Verizon problem, limited data and on contract until December 2014 That is why I choose to go with the S3, while locked from Verizon devs make it possible to unlock.
If they made a 64, I think I could for go the external memory aspect. My GNex was a 32. It worked, but would definitely feel more comfortable with more.

This thread is pointless, nobody can tell you what YOUR needs are. Some people are fine with 16gb, and for others 32gb is not enough. Only you know what your usage is like.
I got the 32GB as 16 GB is Low for me. Secondly there is no expandable memory and hence I opted for the 32 GB.
Though I agree with _MetalHead_ that this is a pointless thread as you should know your requirements and if 32 GB is not available in your country, there is no point in talking about it. Though don't you think you could have bought it from ebay.com if you seriously needed 32GB.... a risk that you could have taken on Nexus 5
16 gigs with a otg cable and a 64gig sdcard = no troubles
Its obvious that OP wants some consoling because he can't get the 32gb version.
OP, you should buy your 16gb nexus 5 and use an otg cable to connect an SD card of whatever size you want to the phone.

Hey guys tomorrow I may be getting a new smartphone and I was thinking if the LG Nexus 5 (16GB) is still worth it. The maximum I can afford is 350 euros. I'm not gonna pay more than that. I also have the option to choose between this one and LG G3S 8GB or LG G2 16GB. Which should I get and why? Thank you.
Out of those three get the Nexus, although if you can find one get a 32GB just for peace of mind. As for why, it's a Nexus so it's just better

There is no external SD card. You'd have to buy and otg cable ansbuab memory stick. You can then move sdcard data to otg using root apps such as folder mount.

Be careful when buying from craigslist IMO. I bought mine from a guy who posted his ad on craigslist.. worked for 2-3 days then it wouldn't work. it turned out the phone was stolen and got blacklisted at least in Canada.
I haven't had trouble on craigslist. If you go that route have the person meet you at your service provider so they can check the imei. Works for me.
Yuup! Totally worth it. I have been using a Nexus 5 16GB for about 4 months now. Although a 32GB version is recommended if u can afford it, since Nexus 5 don't have External Memory!
I'd take a 1+1
If you game a lot on your phone, get the 32GB.

Huh?
Too bad I couldn't find the 32GB version anywhere. Where I live this phone is sold out. All I could find is the 16GB version on a website. I've already ordered it. I'm gonna be satisfied with it but it's really a pain in the oven the fact that I couldn't find the 32gb version. By the way I'm no expert in rooting/kernels/roms etc but from what I can see this phone has very good support. Thanks guys!!
EDIT: Guys, I just got owned. The same website sells LG G2 32GB at 350 euros. Would you guys cancel the order for this new option?

Too late. But I'm still satisfied. 16GB is gonna be enough for me. I'm not an enthusiastic gamer but I do like to play sometimes. Usually if I get tired of a game I just delete it. I'm not into music so much, so songs don't bother me so much. A couple of apps wouldn't even get closer to 1GB (I'm not talking about gaming apps). I don't know about the typical sizes of kernels/roms but I think 16GB is plenty for my needs. Thanks.

The OS is about 5 GB so you`ll have about 11 GB of user space left.

Well, I'll learn to survive at the limit. In the future (2,5+ years later if it endures all the pain) I'll probably switch to N6 32GB.
The fact that the OS's size is 5GB sounds like a 'tricky scam' from the producers to me. The phone should have about 21GB total memory not 16 then.

I ended up cancelling the order lol. I had ordered an anti-shock protection as well for the N5 but what's interesting is that they'd bring them to me separately (two different transport packages lol - which is more expensive). I sent a message to them saying if they could bring those 2 requests together and they said no, they had to bring them separately. I ended up cancelling both of them.

I had one and sold it, couldnt deal with their bull**** system. So many bugs and quirks, granted its a new company, but not for me. Went back to the N5 for the stability.
