For Sale NEXUS 5

Haha shoot... if it's like new I'd get it for myself. Huge upgrade from my nexus 4. I'm getting back in line if everyone else backs out.
 
It is supposed to release tomorrow sometime. My local T-Mobile store won't have stock and I am not driving anywhere to pick it up after work. Internet order at 00:01 it is!

I'm unsure now if I am going to sell the phone now. After being screwed for about two weeks because of the bank and Google it might be prudent to keep this as an emergency backup.

Haven't decided yet

Good to have a backup. Years ago, before Android & data plans, I lost my "cheap" $50 flip phone while breakdancing on a snowboard. That's what it looked like anyway. I thought I'll just walk in and get another cheapie. That's when I learned about all the subsidizing and out-of-contract full retail pricing and even that pos was $200-300. So yeah, now with them being worth more than computers, I still won't pay for insurance, but a Nexus 5 in your drawer is insurance already paid for. :p It's just unfortunate Android phones have such little resale value. My Galaxy Nexus is worth $10 where an older iphone is 20x more valuable.
 
Honestly, the value of that phone is depreciating by the day. It's best value is right now and there is always some one selling a quality unit of what ever flavor you could desire on Ebay or Craigslist. Recoup your money and deal with trouble as it arrives.
 
I have tried replacing the speaker grill to no avail. Moto said that they would replace the handset if T-Mobile would not. This phone is totally bad ass, it is fast and beautiful. The battery life is better than average but not impressed with the longevity.

The screen is to die for Btw.

Was the battery life at least better than the N5?

Well I have been watching Hulu for 4.5 hours on LTE and I am down to 38% from a full charge. This includes sending several emails, watching some porn and posting here.

I can see myself watching several more hours of Hulu before the battery is exhausted.

All settings are default with automatic brightness. I have enabled Google Now to always on but that is the extent of my tweaking.

I withdrawal my comment on battery life as I have yet to pull out my charger.
 
I plugged up the turbo charger to see how these sensational claims stack up against reality.

The phone charged from 32% to 97% in about 40 minutes. I'm very impressed with that. My Nexus 5 would take about 3-4 hours on the stock charger to do the same.
