Mine's arrived and is now charging.

FWIW the Nexus 5 is smaller in the hand than the Nexus 4.   All the spare real estate around the Nexus 4 screen is reduced on the Nexus 5, thus allowing a bigger screen from a physically smaller and thinner phone.    Will start playing with it later when it is fully charged.

Note to self, remove game authenticators before switching phone!

Mine arrived too.

I have to say its a nice phone but the Shinyness has already worn off after a couple of hours. I don't like the SMS and hangouts intergration in the same app as there is no switch between modes which is messy as hell. Going to try and DL a SMS app and change the setting to make hangouts the default.

£570 off, bargain.

Very impressed with the battery life on the 5, anecdotally it seems to last very much longer than the 4 did.

In terms of speed and screen, how does it compare to the N4?

Edit, found this:

looks sexy, great spec, I want one!

not sure about the link from very.co.uk because it's £299 for the 16gb on Google...maybe I'm missing some sort of joke again.

Sadly I don't think it's a joke, they really would rip you off for that amount. Get it from Google

I think the intent of the post was probably 'look at the price of that, it's a joke' rather than 'Very have posted a fake joke price'.  It remains a joke and I don't think it was posted as a recommendation to buy from that source!

I Don't think i'll be buying from very.co.uk ever, the comparision video posted comparing the nexus 4 & 5 was really useful, not so sure about the plastic back on the N5 seems like a step backward, although when I had the N4 it was always in a case it was nice to know that when I did take it out of the case to give it a clean it had a nice sleek/tendy back.

Not so sure about the groans with the camera with the N4 as I found it very good in the right conditions - I don't really expect many/any phone cameras to take decent photographs in low light conditions, it's nice that they improved it with the N5.

Absolutely agree, it is an amazing rip off and the sort of pricing that leads to customers walking away to never return.
