better camera, better Processor
I was searching for a phone under 200$ and Moto G 3rd Gen would have been one of the candidates, but when I saw the Nexus 5 for that price I seriously began contemplating to buy a refurbished one. Main reasons: 1080p display, better camera, better Processor, 2GB RAM, (better look - subjective) - all that is supposed to add up to a much better user experience than a Moto G.Only thing I was afraid of was that I heard quite a few things about the battery of that phone not being the very best. I read through the reviews on here and BuySPRY seemed to be the only seller with good feedback and somebody on here also wrote that their phones allegedly are refurbished by LG themselves. I dont know if thats true but I gave it a shot.I purchased the phone from BuySPRY and it arrived on time. The phone looks and works like new (and by "looks like new" I really mean it). Only drawback was that the battery life - as I feared - didnt seem to be very good any more - but still usable when turning on battery save mode.So I contacted the seller via Mail and David Pop answered my questions quickly. Eventually he offered me to purchase a battery BuySPRY would pay for. I even could choose which one to buy. I am extremely satisfied with the service, as for the phone, it is too early to say anything in terms of durability, but it works perfectly so far (its been 1 week of moderate use). I installed quite a few apps already, but no games or other performance heavy apps. One of the best Amazon experiences for me so far.Alex

Excellent phone even 2 years later.
I have owned a Black 16GB Nexus 5 since they first came out and have loved it ever since. I wanted to upgrade my wife's phone so I decided to jump on this great deal.I was amazed that this phone came in looking and working brand new. I could not even tell it was a refurbished unit! I ordered the White 32GB model and compared to my Black 16GB one, it looks really nice! There were NO blemishes on the product at all. I slapped on a Tech21 Protective Nexus 5 Case Impact Frame - Black and with the contrasting White back, it looks very nice.The reason why I got another Nexus 5 two years later, is that they are fantastic phones and are the perfect size. Sure there are better phones out there, but nothing beats the experience of pure Android. I am running 6.0.1 and the camera has improved yet again, and the battery life lasts a lot longer than when this phone was first released. I also have an LG G4, and while that is a much nicer phone overall with a better display and one of the best cameras, this Nexus 5 was less than half the price. Cannot beat that value!

Great first few days, then unusable.
I wanted to love this phone, I upgraded from a Nexus 4 that I had for 3 years. Unfortunately, I'm returning it after just two weeks. A lot of Nexus 5s have a faulty connection with the external speaker and this one was no exception. Annoying when I'm trying to listen to music, but a huge problem when my alarm doesn't go off and I oversleep three days in a row. In addition, the camera turns whites into a yellowish tint, and it drops the WiFi pretty often, which I didn't notice until I got a data warning just two weeks into my month. Battery life was great for the first few days but significantly decreased in the second.Pros: display is great, both front and back cameras are good aside from the white issue, speaker volume is great when it actually works. Runs fast on Marshmallow, although it did take a while to get it updated to that. Have had no issues with running any of my apps. Can't comment on making calls because who actually uses their phones for that these days?Returning this and trying my luck with the new Nexus. I love the Nexus line, so I really wanted to love this phone, but it's not working out.

Nexus 5 Review
The Nexus 5 is a very nice phone. Arrived with Android 4.4 and it's upgradeable to 6.01 Marshmallow but it takes 2 hours to do so. Patience is a virtue and I'm not so sure that the lower versions are all that much better. Have had cells for a while and Google has been over dominating in junkware, bloatware and whatnot. Seems like a sensitive device as the screen goes on when I put it in a cell case. Not hitting the on button so further investigation is needed. Haven't tried all the features yet, just rec'd.

Near perfect phone for it's age...
I have other phones and I have to say the LG Nexus 5 is near perfect. Yes, it's an older phone lacking some features such as a fingerprint reader or newer Band 12 LTE frequencies. But, this phone is flexible in use and sturdy. I was especially surprised how "new" the phone looked since I purchased this item as "refurbished". For the tech savvy: you can install an aftermarket ROM with the newest Android version because the bootloader is unlockable. That being said, I've done this myself and this older phone acts just like any of the current model phones on the market. I highly recommend this phone and seller.

So far, so good, Was little scuffed when I received it on the back but nothing a phone case can't cover (that's the only reason for 4 stars not ) and the fact that you have to download a photo album/ gallery to it because one isn't pre-installed but otherwise it's been pretty good. Has 32gb memory which is great, takes good pictures. Everything working so far.

Great phone for the money.
Good quality overall, for the price. I've had it for a week, and so far the only flaw I've identified is somewhat shorter battery life than is advertised by the manufacturer. This is to be expected due to the fact that this phone is refurbished. Other than that the phone is outstanding. The screen, camera, OS and overall design aesthetic of the body are all stellar.

Very nice phone, came in "refurbished" but looked BRAND SPANKING NEW. These guys did a good job :D. One grievance I have though is that apparently the white phone uses more fragile edges than the black one (which has rubber seemingly instead of soft plastic). You'd think they'd be consistent other than color, but it was my fault for not checking before hand. An otherwise great phone though!
