Forums - Gaming Discussion - Should i buy nexus 5 or nexus 6

So I wanna buy new phone soon and i think nexus 5 one of the phones that i am really interested in. So i know usually google reduces the price of nexus phone around this time of the year to make room for the new phone (nexus 6). I am not sure when they are going to discount it but i am not in hurry.

I just don't know if they reduce the price by hundred to 250, should i buy it or should i i wait for nexus 6. I hear the new one is going to be more expensive(eg. 500) obvisously this is not official but i don't know if it is a good idea to pay double to get the nexus 6.

 

What do you thing guys

Wait for the Nexus 6 since the Nexus 5 launched around October 31 so it shouldnt be very long now until they announce their next itteration

I hope, it says same size as nexus 5 i don't something like samsung note , that is too big in my opinion. 5 Inch is a good size for a screen.



Get nexus 5 after nexus 6 comes out cause it will be cheaper.

Usually it sells out before the next nexus comes out. At least, last year if remember correctly nexus 4 was sold out before nexus 5 came out.

Get the Nexus 6. Always go for the more recent Nexus available for the most powerful hardware. It will receive a lot of of Android updates, so you will probably want to keep it for some years (I'm still on the 2012 Nexus 7, bought less than 6 months from launch) simply because you don't have a lot of reasons to upgrade.

Getting the latest model will allow you to skip more generations before getting a new one. And despite all that, maybe the 6 will bring some hardware trick, so it's best to wait. And there's Google's Project Ara that isn't that far from retail.



get the Z3... i will.

Buy the One plus One phone. Sure the name is not that good but it has much better specs that the Nexus 5 at around $100 less ( $300 )

I like Z3 but i think that would be 700 without contract. A little expensive for me.
