Any Nexus 5 Owners? Thoughts/Opinions?

At first I hated my HTC Desire Original because it was FULL of CRAPWARE and apps that I couldn't delete.

Once I rooted and installed Cyanogen pretty much all my concerns went away and I had that phone for years after.

@Sinner: I watch MKBHD's videos pretty religiously.

Lol, I've suddenly become a machinist god

That aside, good luck with your purchase. If you watch MKBHD religiously I'm sure you know that Marques classes the nexus 5 as the benchmark that is compared to all other phones

The aerotech plastic on the back is all well and good for durability but it feels like a crackerjack prize to be honest. Just couldn't stand it.

I can't stand that plastic as well. I love the fake leather backing on the note 3.

LOL whoops. You have no idea how many minutes I sat scratching my head about your comment. Was so confusing. I think I just assumed because of the MS-SSW in your profile avatar thing. Lol, thanks will.

New phone is here and awesome but AT&T are assholes. Long story short when I asked them to issue me a temporary nanoSIM so that I would have a phone for two days I had to wait, the service rep dropped me from my data plan. Now they have to do a reactivation and my plan(2gb for 25) is no longer available. So they want to reactivate me for a more expensive plan? Fuck AT&T. I told them that was ridiculous, and had a nice chat until the lady agreed to get on the phone and get me my old data plan back. If I see any sort of "activation charge" on my bill I will give somebody an earful. AT&T is ridiculous man.

The Nexus 5 is amazing though. One of the most elegant and smart pieces of tech I have had the pleasure to own.

I'm willing to smash my Nexus 4 for the One:

It's not just AT&T, every large service provider is like that, and it's worse in Canada.
