Has anyone had an n5 and g2 concurrently; is the experience of the n5 better in terms of responsiveness and smoothness?
I very much enjoy the nexus experience but the camera of the g2 is swaying me toward the g2. However given that there is an overlay in the g2 I am wondering if this is detrimental to the experience when compared to the lean mean n5.
I have both phones at the moment and in terms of responsiveness and smoothness the N5 is much better than the G2, however stock android is pretty much lame as there's not much to it; the screen is also brighter on the N5 compared to the G2.
If that's you kind of bag and you want a lag free, smooth experience and the latest android go for the N5.
However the battery life reigns supreme on the G2 and totally trounces the N5, the camera has a lot more options and generally performs better, however the N5 does have an edge in low light conditions.
LG has also added several useful features into its ROM which are actually quite useful, it has an IR blaster and the speaker is slightly better than the N5, this also applies to music output via headphones.
Technically the N5 is better in terms of user experience and software but the G2 has the edge in overall as there's something about the N5 that is very "soul-less" and indeed is extremely vanilla.
