Photos From A Nexus 5

In a previous post I mentioned how great the Nexus 5 Camera is.

The pics I linked out to are here:

The Nexus 5 In A Post Marshmallow World

The Nexus 5 is still a powerful device. This post is inspired by Nougat and takes a quick look at the Nexus 5 as a device post Nougat release. This might be 1 of the first few posts on a stock Marshmallow Nexus 5 living in a post Nougat released-into-the-wild world. This could end up being 1 post that I end up updating every so often.

Having the ability to have stock Marshmallow Nexus 5 continues to be great. The phone still has the processing power, memory (running apps/running apps simultaneously/app usage ability), speed, battery life, camera. These great features are what the typical Android user has come to expect with a stock Google Device, Android Operating System, Nexus 5 phone. The Nexus series itself has produced phones and tablets that have been and continue to be great devices with all above mentioned features and more. This is coming from a past iphone user that I guess one could or would say was obsessed. Obsessed with the apps, the possibilities of finding the next great app and scrolling through the iOS iTunes apps store through any and all categories seeking the next big app.

That said, I am extremely pleased with the Nexus 5 and how it has performed over the past 3 years or so. I know that at the time of writing this, Nougat is being pushed out to so many devices and you know if you are in tune with this sort of info, whether or not your phone is in line first to receive it OTA. Thus I can only assume that as time passes well known/heavily used apps will continue to be refined on a source code level that ends up either breaking some apps partially or entirely based on what the app does. Thus continuing to use a Nexus 5 will have more pros then cons but 1 con would be if apps were refined to a level that makes some well known apps start to break. I will continue to be an avid user of my Nexus in a post Marshmallow, now Nougat world. At this time I just do not have the ability through a device upgrade path into a newer Nexus. Regardless, if you are ready for a newer Nexus phone, then head over to the Google Store and buy one now.

As of now my phone has not experienced any issues related to not being able to be updated to Nougat. I am updated as far forward as possible in all other possible updates that get sent regularly and routinely to my phone. Thus I am looking forward to continue to use this device. If the ecosystem allows for a Nexus 5 to continue to operate at a high level, then I will continue to use this Nexus 5 as my full time phone for as long as the hardware of the device will allow for. I am 100% sold on the Google/Android operating system as it has allowed me to user different apps across all platforms fast and easily.

When possible I will update this blog with any interesting quirks experienced after Nougat has been released but not made available on my Nexus 5. Before posting I will consider that not everyone may agree or experience the same exact outcomes that I experience but you are more than welcome to add a comment and let me know what you are seeing or not seeing while using your phone if it is not one of the first phones in line for the Nougat update or NOT in line at all to receive the new update. I will either add an update to this single post or put out a few posts as time and situations experienced allow for themselves to be written and thus posted.

Did I mention how good the Nexus 5 camera is?
