Google will have smartwatch OS launch/announcement in next few months, before Google I/O, we could decide which smartwatch to buy for Google or HTC or Motorola . . . . drool.gif

You're an awesome stand up comedian. At par with the likes of Zach Galifianakis and George Carlin. To be honest, I'm just trying to maximize the lifespan of the product I will be purchasing. Knowing most smartphones, acquire very low lifespan, before their predecessor being announced for launch.
*
1. It's only launched for 3 months plus, you will had to wait another 9 to 10 months to get it ( if it's possible to obtain ).
2. You pay lower price now compare to much higher price when it's just launched.
3. It's still rumor, but Nexus line might get discontinued.
4. Unless you're interested in new HTC One, else Nexus 5 is the best phone available IMHO.

It looks like you're the one in need of 'getting a life' for repeating it twice. I'm a statistical man. I have to be sure that I'm always at the edge and at the advantage, especially whilst making purchases especially for devices, which is about to mature in contrast of how fast the technology world is moving these days. If you have problems with me asking for useful opinions, then you shouldn't spend your precious little time and waste it on me to post some ridiculous posts without any useful input like the previous ones you posted. Hope you have a good day, and please stop making other peoples' lives miserable even if yours is currently one  cool2.gif

I doubt your ability for statistical. You either buy it at launch with higher price, or buy later with lower price. You pay higher price earlier to enjoy the experience for longer time, or you pay lower price later to enjoy shorter time span. In the end, the value to previous generation will be same at the time of of new generation released. Price and value of devices will dropped as time goes, to the base point of device's own base value.
If you're at the edge, you'll had get it already and keep swapping newer devices when it's available.

I seriously like the way you think. Very rigid, and manipulative. You can make a good Barrister. But if you were to read between the lines, I said " I have to be sure that I'm always at the edge and at the advantage, especially whilst making purchases especially for devices, which is about to mature in contrast of how fast the technology world is moving these days."

I specifically mentioned, 'especially whilst making purchases for devices, which is about to mature'. It's never about the money, but it has come to a time that, I'm in need of a second phone, because my primary phone does not provide me with enough juice to last the whole day. Work oriented, turns out that I need a back up phone to adapt the same performance as my primary phone. And the day, turns to be today. It was never about buying devices at launch with a premium price. I would, if I knew on that launch day that my primary phone does not satisfy me.
*
What's the fuss on 'second' phone then ? Knowing Nexus build for developer, focuses on performance ( mainly processor ), pair with latest stock Android, non other phones can match the raw performance.

To be honest, I'll rather buy a good power bank to charge the primary phone in order to last to the end of the day. Depend on personal usage, but I guess there will always some sort of difficulties on data concurrency and consistency on two devices. What is your personal usage and requirement on your phone ?

Would be best choice to root it once receive? to avoid all the backup procedure after using the phone? Cause i know OTG will able to use after rooting it

Yup, I flash custom recovery and rooted once receive my N5. Then can start deciding to stick with stock ROM or custom.

Hi guys..I'm having "unknown number" issue for incoming calls..its like caller id not working..anyone else get this? How to fix?

The caller ID most likely works on US number only.

two question.

1.Franco or elementalx?

2. anyone using double tap 2 wake? or touch control? How is the battery drain? smile.gif

Thanks alot, haha.. sorry If i sound demanding. >.<
*
S2W/DT2W will increase battery drain by little for sure. If on elementalX, could simply press power button to disable s2w/s2s.
