Nexus_5_Reddit_Leak_01 I can guarantee you one thing. The Nexus 5 leaks will continue until Google officially announces the damn thing. Last night, a Reddit user by the name of throwawaynexus5guy hit the popular site with an “Ask Me Anything” campaign and offered pictures of the phone as proof.

Probably the biggest information he offered was the fact that the camera doesn't appear to be all that great. Of course we really don't know what kind of testing he did, so I am hopeful that info is wrong. He also mentioned the phone sports an always on microphone similar to the Moto X. Another interesting tidbit is that there is a 100GB Google Drive offer that includes a “complete backup solution” similar to iCloud.

In the not so surprising news, he confirmed SMS messaging within Hangouts and a 2,300mAh battery. He said you could probably get about 6 hours of video playback. I don't know about you, but that's a big time fail in my opinion. To learn more, hit up the source link below. Hit the break for more pics.

Robert lives in upstate New York where he was born and raised. Technology was always his passion. His first computer was a Radio Shack TRS80 Color that used a cassette tape to save programs, and his first laptop was a Toshiba T1200FB that sported a CGA greyscale screen and two 720kb floppy drives (no hardrive). From the early 90’s through late 2011, he only owned Motorola phones starting with the MircroTAC all the way through to the Droid X. He broke that streak when he bought the Galaxy Nexus. Now he's sporting a Galaxy Note 4, and absolutely loves it. He has a wonderful wife and a 6 year old son. In his free time he enjoys sports, movies, TV, working out, and trying to keep up with the rapid fast world of technology.

6 hours of video play back. Lets see, My GS3 gets about 3 hours and I get 15-18 hours of daily use. With the wireless charging I’ll take that.

  Never take individual ‘reviews’ at face value. People complained about the N4’s battery sucking… some said it was great. It’s been greeat for me, even with LTE enabled.
