Introduction

In this review, we will focus on the fifth generation of “pure guglofonov.” Company Google this tradition laid in January 2010, releasing the Nexus One, manufactured by HTC . That machine was equipped with a single core processor with 1 GHz, 512 MB of RAM and a small 3.7-inch display, a front-facing camera and all absent.

In December of the same year, Google introduced a new version of “Google Phone» – Nexus S. At this time, the company got the order Samsung, which gave rise to the light is very similar in characteristics to its predecessor phone, adding NFC, large display and front camera. Almost a year later, in October 2011, was released the next generation of devices and again under the brand Samsung. They became the Galaxy Nexus with a dual core processor with 1.2 GHz manufacture Texas Instruments, one gigabyte of RAM and a 4.6 “HD display.

After him the baton passed by LG along with the order on the Nexus 4, the main innovations which were quad-core processor Qualcomm, two gigabytes of RAM and improved vosmimegapikselnaya camera. But since more than a year and the market demanded a new step of the software giant. They became LG Nexus 5 .

quite a good stuffing, which will cover most needs today. Scares only a relatively weak battery, but about it later.

Packaging and delivery

with your phone user gets:

• Micro-USB cable;
• Charger (model MCS-01ED; ??Input: 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz, 0.2 A, output voltage: 5 V 1.2 A);

Yes, the error is not here to supply missing headset. At least in the case of model D821, who visited in my hands. Charging fairly dohlenkih – 1200 mAh, respectively, a full charge will take approximately two hours. Wire standard: not as thick as the Nokia or HTC, but not as thin as the Chinese type Keneksi.

Packaging made of thick cardboard with a print in a minimalist style, with pastel colors. On the obverse shows a portion of a smartphone with abstract “wallpaper” on the display. Content is pulled by pushing pallet boxes.

smartphone itself lies in a “crib»:

display is protected from scratches film (admittedly, very thick).

Appearance and design

The size

Nexus 5 can be compared to HTC One, Samsung Galaxy S4 and Nokia Lumia 925. Thickness it at parity with the model Samsung and slightly thinner than the Lumia.

Applied brand

glass Corning. The back side is flat, coated Soft-touch. A hand-held gadget quite comfortable feeling very similar to those that you experience when you hold OPPO Find 5 and HTC One.

Location

camera completely covered glass, flash consists of one LED on the lenses present enlightenment. Title Nexus extruded and formed into a glossy, as well as the logo LG. IMEI sticker is easily removable. Just below the logo emblazoned inscription «Made in Korea».

In general appearance of the smartphone can be called strict, it is suitable for those who want to “shout” about the brand of your device to everyone you meet. In a case this phone is very difficult to distinguish from the mass of other models, in contrast to the same NTS One. Plus or minus sign is – a purely subjective matter.

Build Quality

raises no objections: squeaks and gaps are practically absent, traces of glue is not visible. Molded body, so can I change the battery when leaving the last of the system, it will be difficult.

Optics camera protrudes slightly from the body, so if you do not wear a sufficiently thick cover, which would compensate for this projection, you can damage the glass, covering the lens.

slots speaker and microphone on the body are very similar to those of the iPhone 5 (C / S). The speaker is located on the left, the right microphone. White LED is located exactly in the center, below the screen.

volume rocker on the left, so when speaking them will be very easy to use (if you are right handed), and player mode – on the contrary. The key travel is small and clear, play there, but within a reasonable (similar seen in iPhone 5S).

front camera is located in the left corner, a headphone jack is pressed against the lid. Generally, AUX-connector on the top of the smartphone – a decision, in my opinion, questionable. Present sensor turning off the display and can be seen at the end of the microphone for noise reduction.

lock button similar volume rocker. Connector for micro “SIM cards” are very similar to those used in other smartphones, and not particularly distinguished.
