Nexus 5 battery life is a joke. Not worth imo. Hauwei seems to have some of the best bang for your buck phones. Might be able to find a good deal on a Samsung S5 or HTC one.

i3-4170, H81 board, 8GB DDR3, Crucial M4, GTX 770, Xigmatek Vangaurd Case, Creative Titanium X-fi, Razer Carcharias, 500w PSU, 24" VA panel and a 42" IPS. Thinking about getting a plant.

You might be able to find a new galaxy S5 for around 200. At that price its a steal. I think its better in some ways that the current 600-700 dollar flagship phones that don't have a removable battery, aren't water resistent, or have a fragile glass body.
