Re: Using my new nexus5 right now
Received mine today (black 32 GB), and I'm still setting it up. It's a gorgeous phone. Very thin and light. Display is beautiful. I'm coming from an S3. Although I can't do a side by side comparison, the screen doesn't seem to be a huge upgrade over the S3. I never noticed any lag with the S3, so the response hasn't wowed me. A couple hiccups. I tried initially to install Google Voice (an absolute essential app for me), and it failed under wifi. I almost shat a brick. For ****s and giggles, I tried under 4G LTE, and fortunately, I got it to install. A couple minor things also came up. I use Pinger Text Free to send pictures, but it crashes. Also, Flickr crashes. It didn't do this on the S3. I hope this gets fixed. I wish this phone had an IR blaster. It's got me thinking that I could get an LG Optimus Pro G for about $440 + tax from AT&T. Don't get me wrong, it's a lovely phone, but haven't noticed a huge improvement over the S3. I sold the S3 because of an annoying battery drain, and that the microUSB port failed. AT&T was nice to send me another one, but I just decided to sell it. I will continue to test it out over the next few days.
