Though we tend.to compare prices and compare devices int ixsss the same price category, sometimes we need to look at the devices themselves.
A comparison of the revered iPhone 5s and the somewhat.less vicarious Nexus.5 is somewhat inapproprite since they are both flagship phones from two tech giants Google and Apple.
There is one quick distinction abot these two phones and that os the lrice. You've probably heard that the iPhone costs around $300, while iPhone 5S the Nexus 5 costs a fraction of that.
Let's talk design for a little bit: The Apple iPhone 5S looks pretty much like the iPhone 5. But you moght still say that it feels different to the touch.
The case holding is also similar in both the phones. However decided to up its stryle with matte finish rather than a black glass.
The iPhone is wonderful to hold and so is the Nexus 5. While the iPhone carries the Apple brand, Nexus looks like any old phone that is Android.
That is a huge difference. So, this infers thar if Google Nexus improved its brand people might feel more comfortable holding it.
When it comes to display. Iphone 5s has a 4"display. It looks like Google decided to go long with Nexus 5 sporting a bigger display by approximately 1 inch.
With a 4.95 inch display and 1920 x 1080 res the Nexus 5 without a doubt leads the display segment and you would enoy browsing, playing online games or watching videos.
The iPhone 5s has been touted to house the A7 chipset agsinst a 64 bit architecture.
Performance & user interface is smooth and rapid on the iPhone.
The 2GB RAM combined with the quad-core processor OS fantastic. The iOS 7 is also great because of the shortcuts to settings like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc.
How about the camera? 8MP seema to be the megapixel of choice for both Google Nexus 5 and iPhone 5s.
Both the phones pack an 8MP camera. Though it might easier to take photos on the Nexus, the image quality on the iPhone 5S is superb.
The disadvantage of not supporting expandable memory exists on both phones.
This comparison is about the 16 GB variants. The iPhone comes in three configjrations, the 16, 32 and 64 GB sizes while the Nexus 5 has just the 16GB and 32 GB.
The battery is the same in both thesd phones - non-removable battery lasting a day for average use.
Checking the price one last time, the iPhone 5S is $416 more than the Nexus 5 at $891 while Google Nexus 5 goes for $483.
