The fact that LG wouldn't give us some sort of variation of the G4 for the Nexus 5(2015) proves they give 0 damns about the consumer 
The phone takes cues from the iPhone S series in terms of small upgrades from its predecessor. Only Nexus that ppl gon cop are the Huwai, and if not that, then the Moto X will get people's money.

I've read that even though the battery is smaller in the note 5 then the note 4 it last a little bit longer then the note 4. I've had 3 notes and I have never carried a extra battery with me.

Oh man, I hope that's not true. Was waiting on that one. If that's true I might have to go with the Moto X. Kinda wanted a fingerprint reader tho. Here's a better pic of the LG Nexus 5.

How many people knew this dropped today? Google is really TERRIBLE at marketing[h1]Android Pay Launches Today, Letting You Pay With Your Phone at Millions of Retailers[/h1]

If you thought Google’s new Google Wallet app this morning was confusing, now we know why: Google’s taken the wraps off of Android Pay, their pay-by-phone service, and is rolling it out today across users and retailers nationwide.
If you’re confused, here’s the lowdown:
Android Pay will work on any NFC-enabled Android device running KitKat (Android 4.4) or higher, every mobile carrier, and at any retailer with an NFC payment terminal that supports the service. In Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) you’ll also be able to use a device’s fingerprint reader to authorize purchases. You’ll be able to add your debit card and credit cards (including American Express, Discover, MasterCard and Visa) to the service and choose which one you want to pay with at the payment terminal. Most major banks and credit unions are supported out of the box, although Citi and Wells Fargo will be available “in the coming days,” and according to Google if you don’t see your bank listed now, it’s on the way.
- Google Wallet will still exist as a way to manage your physical Google Wallet card, and send and receive money (a la Venmo, Square Cash, and other similar services).
- Android Pay on the other hand is Google’s new payment system, designed to make it easy to digitize your payment methods, use your Android smartphone to pay for your purchases both online and at brick-and-mortar retailers, and to pay for in-app purchases.
Android Pay is currently US only, and is rolling out to Google accounts today, and has the support of over a million retailers nationwide (although of that million retailers, there’s only about 63 individual companies on the list right now, as you can see in the graphic above.)
When Android Pay was announced back at Google I/O earlier this year, most people saw it as a way to modernize Google Wallet and make it a real competitor to Apple Pay, which people saw as a “pay for stuff with my phone in the real world” service first and a way to organize their credit cards and rewards second. Compared to Google Wallet, which has always been useful but never broadly adopted by retailers or users, this shift—while a little confusing—at least means Android users will be able to pay with their phones as well as enjoy Google Wallet’s other benefits at the same time.

Even if they didn't market it on tv or anything like that, They're Google, a simple doodle or a push to all Android phones/gmail would be efficient enough to spread the news.

Thats not gonna sell any NEW devices though. Plus, theres so many good features that Android has that most users dont even know about.(ie Hangouts, etc). Android could be alot bigger if they actually marketed their features better. (Google and the OEMs)
Plus You could use the same argument for Apple, since all they have to do is push out an update and ALL iphones will have the new feature

I see your point. Google has always slacked in marketing, I don't know if it's due to their beginnings as just a search engine per se or what. And Hangouts is coo but it's eh sometimes. I'd like it if it were pretty much Handcent since Handcent is buggy. I miss the pop up reply windows.
But Google doesn't really have to sell devices, that's up to the manufacturers who use their OS. Nexus phones are gon sell regardless w/o advertising.

In case anyone is interested in some of the regular color Moto X's and don't care to customize the colors, there are a couple options on Amazon right now and you won't have to wait like you do if you pre-order it through moto maker

Super excited for my One Plus Two but man, their logistics are absolutely terrible. They say it's in stock but they don't even have units ready to ship. They keep changing estimated delivery times left and right. Forums are a mess. They've created this hype they simply can't meet right now
