    Google getting in on the smart watch game now. Maybe this is what is delaying the announcement?

    I haven't been paying much attention to the smartwatch trend. But Google Now is awesome and this is the first time I'm really interested to see a company's take on it.

    Gonna crush this phone.

    Not the watch though. I only wear watches that cost upwards of $500.

    He's thanking Google for sticking to a similar pricing strategy. This phone is an absolute steal at that price. I think I'd splurge on the 32GB model though if it's only $50 more.

    I also have the Ringke Fusion for my Nexus 4. I mainly had it because I was scared the glass on the back would crack. Since that won't be an issue with the Nexus 5, I think I'm going to keep it without a case. I do like the Ringke Fusion case though, if I had to buy one for the Nexus 5, I'd get that one.

    This phone is going to make me jump to Android. I've been looking to replace my old iPhone 4 and, although I like iOS 7, I want to give Android a shot. I prefer Google's native apps and the customization possibilities of Android. The phone is priced amazingly and looks great, too.

    I just recently picked up a new nexus 7 and love it, so much so that I'm so ready to sell 5 month HTC one for the Nexus 5.

    I had the ringke fusion for the n4 but wasn't a big fan. Made it too bulky for my liking so just stuck with the original bumper. No problems with the glass back at all. Even dropped it a few times. Does have a screen protector on the back though.

    Nexus or die. Although, I have access to an LG G2 and that device is amazing. So I'm super excited about the N5 considering that's what it is based off of.

    Yeah, but no removable battery = :(

    Might just have to grab a G2 instead.
