G+_Mike Flanagan Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Anyone hear anything negative about the camera on the Nexus 5. Hardware or software any input would be welcome. http://mobile.theverge.com/2013/11/4/5062724/google-nexus-5-review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Robert Klinzmann Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 The Verge - It is incredible how they bash the N5 camera. Pretty much various other tech sources who reviewed it say its a decent camera for the price you pay. There are reviews out in the web saying it even can in lots of situations match an HTC One. Again, this is a $349 phone. So please don't do camera bashing and write an iPhone 5 to heaven. THE VERGE - we know you only love Apple and nothing else. That brings me to the question why I listen to their reviews ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Mike Flanagan Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 Robert Klinzmann Its not like it stopped me from ordering the 32gb version but was just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Robert Klinzmann Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I will test it Friday when it arrives :D It's just general frustration about a good site like The Verge and their obvious reviewing (not just Nexus phones, lot's of great devices Android-based are reviewed as poor products though ALL iPhones etc. never ever have any flaws [i exaggerate here]). Why do they do that :( Funniest thing on the Verge are nevertheless the comments on those reviews. So excited for Friday :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Robert Klinzmann Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Mike Flanagan I will. I'm not so much focused on the camera because I have an amazing Canon Powershot SX50 HS. However, I will try to take some pictures over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Dean Barnard Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I was excited about how good the N5 looked and then read/saw the Verge review which put a bit of a downer on the situation. I hope they are wrong and would love to hear from anyone else about it's picture taking quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Robert Klinzmann Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Dean Barnard I would like to know how you think about the Nexus 5 after various other reviews. My favorite reviewer is MKBHD on Youtube. He hasn't really uploaded a video about the Nexus 5 yet but regularly reviews Android smart phones, shares his thoughts on Google, Tech and the Web and says interesting stuff in general. Definitely worth to check out his channel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Stephen Syputa Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 There are numerous reviews comparing both the n5 & 5s photos with the n5 having the decided advantage (though the 5s's flash is superior). Seems the OIS helps a lot, as well as the 800 SoC's HDR+ capability: https://search.disconnect.me/search/?s=d2hhdGlmaWRpZHRoaXMx&se=google&q=nexus+5+vs+5s+camera Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
