Nexu 5 Price drop?

[dguillaume]

I personally think the Nexus 6 is too big, any chance of a Nexus 5 price drop in the coming weeks?

Well they usually drop the price when there is a successor so they don't compete in sales, but the N5 is $300 less than the N6. I don't think it will be dropping anytime soon, and they're probably going to sell a ton in the coming weeks even at the regular price.

If the price hasn't dropped yet then I don't think it will. The Nexus 6 is the normal flagship price so the Nexus 5 still appeals to people that want to spend less on a smartphone with pure Android. I picked up a red Nexus 5 recently because it seemed like the Nexus 6, with the specs that were leaked, would be the normal $650 off contract price.

It doesn't look like the Nexus 5 is going anywhere. $649 for Mr. Piggy is not very Nexus.

I was hoping for a price drop, but I'll take what I can get (Nexus 5) now that I've seen the future.

The Nexus line hasn't always been a low cost phone. Previous Nexus phones were also priced around $649.99. The Nexus 5 will be the more affordable Nexus phone since it looks like they aren't removing it.

Looks like they're still selling the nexus 5 alongside the 6 and 9

I got a used Nexus 5 a few weeks back. It's worth the money if you need an off-contract phone.

Ok so there was the Nexus S and it was $529 w/o contract, but wasn't that only offered through T-mobile and then Sprint?

Just have to decide between the Nexus 5 and OnePlus One then

I've got my doubts regarding a price cut. I just checked the store, and they only have the 32 GB white Nexus 5. Everything else is sold out.

Now all of the Nexus 5s are sold out in the Play Store.

I guess that's a vote of no confidence for the Nexus 6
