If u ask here, ofkoz its Nexus 5

Anf if u want the latest software update everytime, buy a Nexus. If not, u can just buy any other Android based phone and when there is a new update on Android, just don't complain that u don't have it.

For me, a Nexus is the true Android phone. The rest is just Android based phone.

i never really touch any Nexus phone altho i have used HTC and Samsung before this. G Nex is the first Nexus phone i touch and i wasn't really impressed that time cos the spec is inferior than the S2 non G. when the S3 was out, a fren of mine bought it and he compare it to his cousin's G Nex and the G Nex is a much better phone and smooth but with inferior hardware. that is when i wanted to get myself a Nexus but i don't really like the N4 design so wait and see how the next Nexus looks like and the N5 really caught my interest so i buy it.

no other flagship can beat a Nexus smoothness in scrolling, i do that too. even my fren's complain to me that his Note3 can't match my N5 on this

the same goes to my fren when he compare his Note 3 with my N5, Note 3 with 3GB RAM should be better but it's not

mine got indicator, even when using wireless charger

i agree on this, not everyone will like a Nexus especially those who are more into features and other that has been added on by each manufacturer.

it's basically back to everyone's preference, there is no best phone around.

Different people, different preferences
I like the simplicity of AOSP, any additional features I want, I can flash different roms, install xposed (example).
Sure not many people may agree. That's why there are options for Android phones! And you can go test the phone/UI before even buying it, that's the point of demo units at shop/stores.

Nah.. You will not notice the difference when you test the demo unit untill you have used it at least a week or so.. I have tried the cm 11 for maybe a month and i satisfied with the less features of vanilla android but i didnt know that the vanilla android has much less features than the cm version.

Custom roms is the way to go if i want more out of this device.

I still believe that google can do more especially with the camera app and other less significant options but might be a deal breaker to some people without they realize untill they use it.

I do agree with the clean simple ui and fast response of the phone. Seriously no lag at all.

i believe there is no demo unit here and most of us here did not even touch a demo unit before buying the phone as we know what we are getting ourselves into.

pure vanilla and CM is not really the same, CM ROM had those add ons by the developer where else pure vanilla is really bare.

seems like u bought the wrong phone

i agree with this and have said it in my post earlier.

That is why i say, if u wanted fast updates buy a Nexus. If not u can only look at the Nexus users. Haha....

Sense UI on N5 then can be a good chick magnet?

i still prefer the basic vanilla UI.

i know, i'm too bored at office today.

wanna have lunch tomoro?

haha! to prevent ppl stalking ma! i confirm with u tomoro

Elementalx 0.36 drain my battery faster, now i am back to 0.35

the same as what i get with 0.36

still 0.35 gives me better SOT

average from 3 to 4 hr on working days

with 0.36 only 2 hr plus and my phone gets very hot

the design looks nice, thin bezel

just dunno how the next version will look like

agreed!

Another one expect to be spoon feed again?

I just update it, now the stock camera is the updated one. Dunni if this is one of the fix for the qcamera bug

my battery drain nowdays ia quite high too compare to previous, settings is still the same.

no such issue on ART on my phone
