Nexus 5 vs Nexus 4 | Pocketnow

Check out our full review of the Nexus 5, including our video review and comparisons, at Pocketnow: /2013/11/09/nexus-5-review (Full description below)

There was no way I was ever gonna buy a Nexus 4.

Sure, the price tag was appealing. Yes, the construction was sleek and I found the disco paint job fun. And the prospect of succeeding my old'n'busted Galaxy Nexus LTE with a more modern, non-hobbled replacement was definitely tempting. But the lack of proper 4G, the godawful camera, and the fragile industrial design all conspired to place the Nexus 4 firmly on my "wait for something better to come along" list.

Well, something better just came along. And it's called (of course) the Nexus 5.

We've seen how the Nexus 5 fares against Motorola's more-innovative Moto X. We've seen how well it holds up under the withering assault of the better-built HTC One. Now it's time to compare it, side by side, with its immediate predecessor. The '5 solves almost every problem I had with the '4, and it comes in at a similarly low price point - but is that enough for us to recommend ditching the older model for this sleek new offering from LG?

Spoiler: oh, yes. In the words of 2006-era Posh Spice, this thing is totally major.
