so, I was thinking if the N6 will be too big for my preference (5.92" is too big imo) which one will be better for long term use ? Nexus 5 or LG G3 for 2-3 years period to use ?

Thanks. :)

If want pure android, N5.
If want better specs and performance, G3, M8.

U want more function like dual windows and better social integration but can accept some lag and a hard to handle screen, take G3.

If you want pure android with smooth and lagfree interface and fastest android update but with lower speaker vume, lower contrast screen but brighter, take n5.

In my opinion, both has almost same battery life in my usage for 2-3 months on each phone.

And you be surprised the camera is better on the n5 and probably best in android space, when I compared to big names like Sony z2 and m8.

Many reviews has bashed n5 for its lousy camera and battery life. But for me, these 2 are fine for me and in fact same or better than most flagships.

N5 served me well before I made the switch to OnePlus, overall a very good phone except the battry life could be improved but it should be compared to the LG G2 instead,sibling phones.

G3 is a generation ahead of it.

y not consider old moto X? specs are lower but most reviews say it's still just as good as N5. maybe camera lose out slightly. i use N5 too. So far so good. only prefer more batt life but it usually can last me whole day, average use. just keep it charge overnight.

i also like the wireless charging part.

The lg g pro 2 is actually a better phone, without the overheating problem, but TS dont like big screen. Of course it doesnt have the high res screen of the g3.

Nexus 4 & Nexus 5 got power button/wake up malfunction issue. So to play safe buy G3 at least got one year warranty.

Lucky unlucky thing is very hard to say one.

Remember, Google do not send replacement set direct to Singapore. You need forwarder to do it.

Also you need find a way to send your spoil set to Google for rma. And you only got 21 days to do it. As Google will withhold the price of the phone on your credit card, once they send out the replacement set. So after 21 days, Google do not receive your rma set, the amount will be deducted from your CC.

So Pray hard that your spoil set is not lost during shipping to Google.

Nexus 4 sexperience, i dunno for nexus 5 rma. But i believe should be the same bah.
