It's been more than three weeks
since the
Nexus 5 made its way onto the
market, and
the momentum hasn't stopped.
True, the handset does have its
fault but despite its drawbacks,
the
Nexus 5 is still an excellent device
for the
reasons we list below. Of course,
if you have
other reasons why you like it (or
even hate
it), be sure to let us know in the
comments.
It runs the latest Android OS
Android 4.4 KitKat may not be an
overhaul
when you compare it to the
previous OS
version, but the update still
brings plenty of
punch. This includes the ability to
search for unknown numbers
directly from
the dialer, and a built-in
framework for cloud
printing. And as a Google-branded
device,
users will be able to receive OS
updates the
moment they roll in, so you won't
have to
worry about getting left behind.
It's a powerhouse
Quad-core Snapdragon 800
processor? Check √.
Adreno 330 GPU? Check √. Support
for LTE
bands? Check √. The Nexus 5 is
packed with top-
notch hardware. In addition, the
handset
offers built-in wireless charging
and NFC
(near-field communication), so you
can juice
up your phone and transfer files
without any
cables. Other specs include a
1080p display,
2GB of RAM, and a sizable 2,300
mAh
battery.
It has great call quality
Now we know
call quality depends on several
factors (your
location, carrier, coverage, even
local weather
can influence signal). Calls that
took place both
indoor and outdoor sounded
excellent, and
voices came in (appropriately) loud
and
clear on Nexus 5. Be mindful,
however, that if you're a T-
Mobile customer and rely on Wi-Fi
to make
calls, the Nexus 5 doesn't have
that support.
Its camera has HDR+
Like we mentioned before, the
Nexus 5's
camera is not the best
cameraphone under
auto settings. (In fact, if you're
looking for a
tricked-out camera, check out the
Nokia
Lumia 1020 or the Samsung Galaxy
S4 Zoom
instead.) However, with the HDR+
feature
under its belt, users can still take
excellent
photos. That's because the camera
not only
takes several photos of different
exposures,
but it also takes a burst of photos
at the
same time. Overlaid altogether,
these effects
can churn out one top-notch
picture.
It's affordable
You can get it one jumia.com or on
konga.com at the price of #75,000
to #90,000.
For a handset of this caliber, that's
an incredibly affordable price
