Google isn't the evil fruit company that over charges for similar technology by selling with a bling-bling marketing attitude for a devices targeted for the technology ignorant social status consumers with money to burn. There is no better cell phone device on the market for $350 than the Nexus 5 and it isn't even close for another $150 to compare any cell phone to the Nexus 5.
Google makes Android as we all know. Most of us got the Nexus 5 to be on the leading edge of Android OS versions released and with a device that developers were using to develop Apps. Maybe Goggle made a mistake letting non-developers buy the Nexus 5 since everyone wants the Nexus 5 to be the best of breed at everything at 40% less than other Android or Apple devices. That was never Google's idea when they sold the Nexus 5.
You want to know about the biggest issue with Apple is they make a one size fits all phone that is very proprietary and won't open up their device for the secondary manufacture's devices. Apple doesn't want iOS competition to Apple's devices since it is all to make more profit by keeping their devices prices up. There is nothing wrong with that but that isn't Google's mission with the Nexus 5. What makes Android better than iOS is the open market development of different manufactures making Android devices in a multiple number of device designs and sizes. Apple's bling-bling marketing can't compete in Android's market place since profit is Apple's only objective. Apple targets the rich people for their devices and Android targets the world's devices that puts high technology devices into the hands of the average person in most developed countries plus a more affordable device in the hands of much poorer people of the world.
Google is selling a Nexus 5 that isn't the best at everything since it would kill off the open Android competition if Google sold the cheapest device with all the best features. The Nexus 5 was made for developers not for consumers. Google can lose money making a Nexus 5 that is really a development device to provide the next Android version to developers so they can get their Apps ready for other Android devices. Google did the non-developers a favor by letting us buy a flagship quality phone for 40% or more cheaper than the competition. I am sure that Samsung, Sony, HTC, Alcatel, Cherry, Huawei, Kyocera/Sanyo, Pantech, ZTE, Google/Motorola and LG would be happy if Google would not let non-developers buy the Nexus 5.
Samsung, Sony, HTC and LG can't lose money like Google can on selling Android devices because Google makes their money on other non-hardware markets. What makes Android better is it's a open market with devices and prices that are very competitive. The Nexus 5 is 40% cheaper than any other flagship quality phone and yes it has some flaws. Google needs to make a device for developers to make their Apps as they release new OS versions of Android plus leave room for other Android cell phone manufactures to keep making a profit by selling phones for higher $$$ that must have higher quality features to be profitable.
