Nice gift

A case is never a bad idea when glass is involved.

I'm so blinded by Z5 everywhere I didn't even realize that said X5 until I read your response. Remember the X5 Pureness? Tough phone to obtain, very limited production.
Never even heard of it but just Google'd it. Thats a weird looking little phone

I don't know if this has been posted before, but I've been looking for a case that is Minimal and still shows off the back of the phone. I came across this one and went to look at the prices available... than I looked at the last option... $104,921.73!!!!! I HOPE this is a seller error... I really do hope... I just thought this was funny and I would share with fellow Nexus 4/XDAers. Have a good one.
Actually it says $13,99.
Or maybe the dollar devaluated again...
Edit: OMG just saw it! What a silly way to say you're out of stock...

look at the bottom^^
Got mine yesterday! Great case i have to say. Highly recomended!!! :good:
And they have the nerve to charge 5¢... Lol
Ehh the rest of the shipping and handling cost is in there somewhere!

I was thinking if ANY case is that much it better have an extra 3,000mh (if that's the right abbreviation) battery built in, signal boosters for both WiFi and Cell Data/Radio, pure diamond and/or hardened steel, light-weight, and have an extra voice assistant that knows you by name and balances your checkbook.
Side note, I am thinking about this case but does it add a lot of extra bulk to the device?

Possibly buy it then try to get a refund through that place? Sounds like a plan

Not to be rude but you should of already known that everyone on this side of the forum will say "of course you made the right decision" and the Z1 side will more than likely oppose.
I never played with the Z1 but the main highlights of the Nexus 5 is the affordable price for pretty decent specs, speedy updates from google and Dev support! Hopefully you'll enjoy your new purchase/trade.
sent from my neXus 5
I agree with OuncE, but so you have some opinion on the matter... i came from the Z and the Z1s, after that. If the z1s had an unlockable boot loader and was slightly cheaper, i probably would have kept it, but Ultimately the price, customizability and mostly comparable specs pulled me to the nexus.
USB otg has been a decent help with expanding the storage capacity, and custom kernels have great battery saving options. Beyond that, the Dev community and timely official updates make this phone pretty worth while, but that's just my opinion.
A parting piece of advice: you'll enjoy this phone more if you focus on what it can offer than if you focus on what it lacks.

HI my name is mark i just traded in my water proof,drop proof sports car for a sports car that isn't water proof or drop proof
did i do good?
Point is both of em have their good's and bad's the Nexus 5 will always be one step ahead of the game with updates
but personally i would have taken the Z1

Yes mate you have made the right move i did excactly the same as you and sold my z1 for the Nexus 5
Only wished I'd got the Nexus 5 to start with
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk 2
I would normally agree with the sentiment shared.
Though the nexus forums seen to tolerate G2 owners running in most threads knocking/comparing their choice to the N5.
This I've never saw in any other xda forum but this one. Just about makes me want to find another forum.
On topic, I think you did OK with your trade, might be a lesser costing phone, but the experience of plain android makes up for options imo.

You tell us if you made the right move.
We say yes because we all own the phone.
I would have kept the Z1. That phone makes me drool.
My phone is rooted, has CM11, and also have a badly cracked screen/digitizer. I'm debating if it's malware or just the digitizer. I've ran AVG and Malwarebytes and nothing shows up. Coming here to see what you guys think.
My phone keeps clicking random ****, so that's why I'm asking.
Malware can't crack your screen.

Well you didn't actually describe any symptoms so I was unable to guess what you meant to say. Now you actually edited your post to add the symptoms , that definitely can be the digitiser

Alright thanks. Just debating to get it repaired in a shop down here for $190 and get it back sooner or send to LG.

From Googling, people are stating $130 with waiting 1.5 weeks to 3 weeks.
Don't have an extra phone, so getting it fixed where I'm located might be a better.

Hi folks I am considering buying a nexus 5. Currently have a moto X and I'm happy with it. However I missed the stock Android and Nexus experience. They're all kinds of pros and cons with this phone as you all know. I guess after all this time, do you think the phone is still worth purchasing? Main reason being is the next Nexus is a matter of months away. What would you owners say? Thanks.

battery isnt bad. but it all depends what your signal quality will be like, how you set it up, what apps youbuse, and how you use your device. i personally see about 4.5-5.5 hours screen in time.
i just used my tmobile Jump upgrade to go from an LG G2 to the Nexus 5, best decision ive made in awhile

As Midnight_Rider Put It... In A Matter Of 6 Months... I Just Used My Jump Upgrade and Went From A HTC One M7 > Note 3 > iPhone 5s Gold (Worst Decision I Ever Made In The Handset Division... The IPad Is Cool But Not The Phone) and Now I Have The Nexus 5...
As Stated Before... Best Decision I Ever Made In The Mobile World In A While. I've Had the Nexus One & the Galaxy Nexus... Minus the Nexus S As I Wasn't On Sucky Sprint But Now That I Have the Nexus 5... I Can Clearly Admit That I'm Thrilled To Be Back To Pure Google, Unlocked, Unrestricted and On the Un-Carrier and the Nexus World.
I Said the Same Thing... As the Next Nexus Is Due By December and The G3 Is Right Around the Corner But Seriously... Its A No Brainer... I Wish the Best To You Young Padawon On Your Choices... Choose Wisely lol ?

Xperia Z5 seems to be a really good option and seems to beat N5X in almost every department.
But if I were you I would still go for N5X. The UI fluidity and development offered on Nexus lineup is unbeatable.
Also for a poweruser the revised 810 chipset might suffer heating issues but 808 chipset has absolutely no complaints yet.
Sent from my Nexus 5
See... I love the spec of the Z5 but there's a lot of bad reviews about for its camera, which is supposed to be one of its main features! I don't play games on my phone so heat would never be an issue regardless.
But the 5X doesn't really seem much of an upgrade from the 5 from what I'm seeing. But i do love my Nexus 5 on how fast it always is

I totally agree with 5X not seeming to be that huge an upgrade. But if Z5 suffers from bad camera then that defies the primary reason to switch to Xperia. So why not consider a different option altogether OnePlus Two?
(IMHO I wouldn't switch to OP2 but it's a good phone from what I hear)
I would keep N5 till thanksgiving or later till I get a good deal on N6P. Hopefully by that time N6P reviews would shed light on how its metal body holds up with the 810.

Wasn't the z5 ranked best mobile camera? I thought it had a great camera.
Sent from my GT-I9505G using XDA Free mobile app
It does, however, first batch of production suffers from a manufacturing flaw whereby the left edge of photos is blurred out compared to the right edge. Once this is corrected, it will be a fantastic camera. I'm really hoping my second Z5C doesn't have the camera issue, just sent my first one back for an exchange.

Does this apply to the z5 not the z5c as well? Also I think the op was referring to the full sized version. But thanks for the heads up!

Yes. Both. There are reports from users on these forums with the regular Z5 with the problem.
I wouldn't want the OP2 cus it's poo cm based
Think it's worth waiting for a newer version of the Z5? Think they'll make one or it'll just be software update?

I'm sure it'll be fixed, it's just a question of how long. It's worth noting that not everyone's Z5s have the issue, it's not affecting all units, just some of them (it's a lottery currently).
It's like there's currently no phones out there worth actually upgrading to. Seems to be more and more bad reviews on the Z5 which is such a shame
