Speaking of cases, i'm considering purchasing the Spigen Neo Hybrid.

Anyone over here using one? The reviews for this case is pretty positive overall from what i've seen so far but it comes at a tad bit steep price of RM100 over here.

I have to say the Spigen Neo Hybrid case does add some considerable bulk to the already slim Nexus 5 body in addition to using the Nillkin 9H tempered glass screen protector.

Overall, it does make one hand operation of the phone a tad bit more cumbersome especially when using one's thumb to swipe off the screen edges to be obstructed by the bumper case edge.

It's still a very good case that i believe will be able to take some hard punishment.

I have a Nilikin 9H tempered glass screen protector applied on my Nexus 5 and so far i have to say its pretty good overall.

However, one minor gripe i have with it is that it does not entirely cover the phone's LCD.

The first time i applied it i had gaps along the edges.

This is how it looks like when you apply on Nexus 5.  Image via XDA.

Well, since you requested for a photo, here is one from the side.

As you can see, the edges of the tempered glass not covering the remaining real estate of the phone's LCD.

Do note that i recently took the glass screen protector for a wash with some mild soap which is why the screen protector looks worn out thanks to all the lint stuck underneath while i was wiping it dry with a non-static microfiber cloth.

In fact, owning the Spigen Neo Hybrid, i can do without the screen protector if i wanted to since it provides pretty good protection in the event if ever i were to drop the phone.

I think its best to ignore posters who constantly ask if the Nexus 5 is now available or when will it be available. It doesn't add any value to others.

If they're bright enough, they can always use the search function in this thread.

Just for those who plan on buying a wireless charger for the Nexus 5, take a look at this comparison chart to view the charge time duration from 0 to 100%:
