Google Nexus 5 now official!

Everyone probably saw it coming as it’s one of ‘s worst kept secrets. The 5 made by LG now makes it to the limelight, packing a 5-inch 1080p IPS display, a 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 CPU with Adreno 330 graphics and Android 4.4 KitKat.

If you would notice, the phone packs very similar internals to the LG G2. This one however inherits the design language of the 2013 Nexus 7, drops the 13 megapixel camera & 3,000mAh battery for an 8 megapixel kind & a lower 2,300mAh capacity and gets the latest version of Android, 4.4 KitKat. It’s smaller too; at 5-inches, it’s more compact than the G2 & almost at par with its 4.7-inch predecessor Nexus 4.

Google specs:
4.95-inch Tru-HD IPS+ LCD display @ 1080×1920 , 445pi
Gorilla Glass 3
Qualcomm MSM8974 Snapdragon 800 2.3GHz quad-core
Adreno 330 GPU
2GB RAM
16GB, 32GB internal storage
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n/ac
Bluetooth 4.0 LE
GPS w/ aGPS support
NFC
HSPA+, 4G LTE
8 megapixel camera with LED flash, OIS
Full HD 1080p video recording
1.2Mp w/ front-facing camera
Android 4.4 KitKat
Li-Ion 2,300mAh battery
130g (weight)
137.8 mm x 69.2mm x 8.6mm (dimensions)

The phone will be available in 16 & 32GB (white / black) variants which will be priced at $349PHP 20,481INR 29,578EUR 332CNY 2,540 & $399PHP 23,416INR 33,815EUR 380CNY 2,904 (around Php15USD 0.26INR 22EUR 0.24CNY 2-17k converted) respectively in the Google Play Store.

Sadly, the Play Store isn’t available yet in the Philippines and we’ll have to wait for LG to bring it here. Last time, retail stores sold the Nexus 4 at a higher price of around Php24k. Anyway, we’ll just have to wait for more info on local availability.

  1. Ina,
    Una ako.
    Lovelots,
    Andi

  2. Oh Men! kakakuha ko lang ng g2

  3. No AMOLED + 2300 mAh, unfortunately. Although the price might make me reconsider. Hopefully >18k.

  4. Bob, the 2GB of RAM is already internal memory — please refer to 16 or 32 GB as storage, not internal memory. Calling the latter internal memory is confusing.

    Thanks

  5. You might want to mention, there are 2 versions:

    North America:
    Quad-Band GSM
    WCDMA Bands 1/2/4/5/6/8/19
    LTE Bands 1/2/4/5/17/19/25/26/41

    Rest of World:
    Quad-Band GSM
    WCDMA Bands 1/2/4/5/6/8
    LTE Bands 1/3/5/7/8/20

    In RP you’d want the Rest of World model, so don’t get someone in the US to order one for you if you care about band 3 LTE (Globe).

  6. Lets hope they don’t screw us over like last time by charging 24k for a phone that should be only 15 to 17k

    If so, you could buy many other better phones near the 24k price range..

  7. ang nakakainis pagdating d2 ang mahal,sold out na ung 16gb sa playstore pabili sana ko sa tita ko sa CA, 32GB nlng hindi ko nmn need ng malaking storage bwisit talaga, baka matagalan nanaman magkaron ng stock, leche.

  8. Thank you for the information. Can you please make it a standard to post the memory left for the user on the ram and internal storage. The 2gb ram and 16/32 GB internal storage is inclusive of the preloaded apps and os. Kudos to Yuga Tech for the work you guys do.

  9. I felt like my 1 y/o S3 is already obsolete!

  10. Question lang po. Pag pinabili ko to sa abroad tapos pinadala dito compatible ba yan sa mga local networks natin? :D

  11. In Kimstore it’s priced at 23,880.

  12. Hai. Big disappointment for Google. Hindi kasali sa update ang Galaxy Nexus ko. Hai.

  13. nexus 5 mini na dual sim! lol

  14. it’s unlocked right? So i can use it with a Smart/Globe/Sun sim?

  15. What??!! 24k price is understandable??? Surely you nest OR you are part of the problem. Maybe YOUR greedy hands are part of the govt who taxes the hell out of us. How come a brand new Nexus 4 can be purchases for 12k note?? BULL SHIT. UNDERSTANDABLE MY ASS!!

    YES! It’s unlocked. MICRO SIM!!

    For me I think the battery is still not large enough. if you’re not on line 24/7 then maybe it’ll be OK for you. And while I’m at it WTF!!! LORE WAGES AND SUPER HIGH PRICES. A STRONG PESO MEANS WE GET IMPORTED ITEMS CHEAPER. ANOTHER MYTH!!

  16. Magkano kaya to pag dating sa Pilipinas, gusto ko talaga ung design. Baka ito ang maging pinaka unang Android phone ko.

  17. Bought Nexus 5 White 16gb for 18.5k. Sana hindi bumaba ng ganyan yung price sa gray market hanggang next month. Baka kasi pagsisihan ko pa yung pagbili ko sa US.

  18. Will this work with Sun?

  19. If 24k price neto mag G2 nlng ako :D hehehe. pero pag bellow 20k.. hmm mas maganda… Sana mag baba. :D

  20. kelan kaya magiging available to sa Smart, sana may 32GB version…

  21. I still go crazy for LG G2. I’m really a fan. :)

  22. this is also made by LG,looks, nice but i still like the LG G2.

  23. G2 is the best smartphone in the world…

  24. Dalhin na natin ang playstore dito sa Pilipinas! Para naman maging affordable ang mga susunod na Nexus phones!

  25. astig wla aq masv sa mga smartphone ng LG lalong lalo n yung nexus 5 and G2

  26. galing tlga ng LG dami nila nilalabas na mgaganda! :)

  35. Users who purchased their apple iphone from 3 3 Modern australia
    can unlock their handset from this network. When you purchase manufacturing
    facility unlock you will definately get free of your
    limitations entirely significance you will see no need to
    re-open in the foreseeable future even with numbers baseband and iOS
    upgrades.
