Thanks for the comparison there
My only worry for the N5 is the battery. My friend has one and he's really struggling to get a day out of it even with light use. That and the fact that the N5 is out of stock
I've got an N5 (upgraded from an S2), and the wife has an S4... both received in the past week so on first impressions:
tbh, I was worried about battery life on the N5 too but so far it's been pretty good - easily lasts the day with fairly heavy use (no doubt there's some variation in manufacturing so maybe i got luky). Having said, that, I don't tend to make many calls. Seems slightly better than the S4, although the missus has been hammering Plants Vs Zombies, so could just be that
~£20 for a wireless charger makes it less of an issue.
Both cameras take pretty decent pics, N5 especially with the HDR+ mode, and the photo-sphere thing is pretty cool / gimmicky (just down to kitkat i think so should come to the S4 in time anyway?)... focusing is a bit slow.
One area that I think the S4 does win out on though is the camera modes -the S4 has best shot (takes multiple pics), motion pics (where a small area can be animated), smart erase, and a couple of others that put it ahead imho. Alsso the high frame rate and super slo mo video modes are also better than the Nexus.
Haven't ever installed a custom rom so not sure if those complaints will be addressed at some point
Bit annoyed that the N5 doesn't have IR, whereas the S4 does, especially as that's one of the features in 4.4
Best thing has been upgrading to 4g really!
personally i wouldnt though, I'm staying away from all that knox stuff and sticking to custom roms with knox stripped out.
