nexus 5 v nexus 6

SAV1OUR

right now both look good so i'm pretty much clueless on what to get. also id like to get a nexus rather than anything else i just like the design of them as shallow as that is 

edit apparently 5's discontinued however there's some stores in my area that still have a few in stock

Well, they stopped making the Nexus 5 so...

 

Nexus 5, smaller, 1080p IPS LCD display, cheaper,

Nexus 6, huge, 1440p AMOLED display, dual front facing speakers, more expensive.

Peruse the specs for both then, and the prices and then pick one, both will get the latest Android updates for the next year +.

Nexus 5 just because the pricing makes a lot more sense than the 6's in my opinion. Check out the LG G2, it's basically the same phone as the nexus 5 but can be found for a bit cheaper at times.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

Honestly it boils down to what size of phone you want. They both have similar performance and features, and they also share the same weaknesses(battery and camera). The Nexus 6 has a more "premium" feel with its aluminum frame and solid back, but the Nexus 5 has a lighter feel(and its plastic). The Nexus 5 isn't that large, but the Nexus 6 is a hummer sized skateboard, so I would get the one in the size that you want.

I'm sad the Nexus 5 has been discontinued, Google needs to make a replacement, not this Nexus 6 crap we're getting.

Um,

Why isn't the Nexus 6 to your liking?
