I love the quiet smiles on all of the reviewers faces when they get their hands on the Nexus 5. Everyone is excited for this phone haha

[Pocketnow]

Hey folks: we had a slight exposure problem with this video. Sorry about that. We're aware of the lighting issue and it'll be corrected (as usual) for the comparisons and review. ^MF

Ordered yesterday morning, UPS said it would be here sometime today! Can't wait!

[Pocketnow]

YouTube is still chewing on the upload, folks. Should be no more than a few minutes before 1080p pops up. ^MF

i love when they put white in the back and black in the front together!!

[davidthesmiler]

Your first nexus 5 vid is actually good

[Mishma_sh]

Definitely go over the speaker quality in the review! Wondering how it'll sound!

[avenuePad]

I was beginning to regret buying the the white version until pretty much now. Seeing it in all its glory here put any notion of regret away.

yeah, that is good. Could you put a laucher and see if the doc bar would become transparent or black.?

[mahmoudfawzi]

we need a detailed battery test.. and pocketnow you guys are the best

[bejoysamuel]

Nexus in white looks pretty cool. Love it...!!
Wireless charging supported...wow... OIS... GREAT...

[DhanArtha]

Please cover the endurance part and how can we get more juice out of this device.

[SirMASUM]

I'm torn. Which colour to get! White or black? Both look amazing

[MrXperx]

Will getting an LG G2 make more sense over getting a Nexus 5, price considerations aside.

[jasonmusic]

Please compare the Nexus 5, IPhone 5s, and the note 3 and if you can compare some gaming not benchmarks?

[Frankdbn]

Hey his please review the white vs black.. The difference between the feel of the backs

[marcocappelli]

It may be an obvious question but I'd like to see a camera test with some comparisons. Moreover I was wondering if the cam uses the same technology as the htc one :-D thank you!

[henrylikemessi]

you are propaply the best tech reviewer on youtuber BTW saw you at IFA in the conference room keep it up

[divyansh]

Which color to get?
Check for lag... Mainly while switching between apps and other day to day stuff

[MrMrabaunza]

I would love a comparison between the G2 and the nexus 5. Specifically battery life and the camera.
