Motorola Moto Turbo is spiritual successor to Google Nexus 5

If you are a stickler for pure Android, the way Google designed it, then the LG-made Nexus 5 is probably the best phone for you. Yes, there's the new Nexus 6, but coming at 5.95-inches, it's gargantuan and is less of a phone, more of a tablet.

The Nexus 6 unlikely to catch the fancy of most people.
But the problem is that Google has killed the Nexus 5, so if you were interested in something like that, then sadly you're out in the cold.

For starters, you get all the advantages of stock Android without any manufacturer level aberrations. By this we mean, no custom UIs, and no bloatware in the form of apps. More importantly, you are getting a phone which packs the absolute best you can get in an Android phone right now. Only the Nexus 6 and the Galaxy Note 4 rival it.


The camera is still a weak point but even that is slightly better than what you get in Nexus 5.
The cherry on cake is the battery life. It is absolutely insane. It lasts for almost two days at a stretch, and this fixes the Achilles' Heel of the Nexus 5 - its abysmal battery life. If you upgrade you go from a having half a day battery life to two days of battery life. That's magnificent.

The display is absolutely gorgeous and a slight upgrade from the Nexus 5 and is also very capacious with 64GB storage unlike the Nexus 5.

The camera too is an upgrade of sorts. It may not provide the calibre of image quality that you'd expect of a flagship smartphone, but it will be slightly better than the Nexus 5. Lastly, you get a rough and tough design with its ballistic nylon back and supremely ergonomic design.
All in all - the Moto Turbo may not have the Nexus branding, but for all intents it is the spiritual successor of the Nexus 5. For Nexus 5 owners looking for an upgrade, the Moto Turbo is the phone. Even for people who were looking at the Nexus 5 but can't buy it, the Moto Turbo is the logical choice.

The phone is great as our review puts it, however, it is not without flaws. Some may find it bulky, some may find the camera underwhelming, but all these are minor quibbles in the larger scheme of things.

Yes, we do wish that Google, now that it has killed the Nexus 5, come up with something to replace it. But until the company does it, we feel that the Moto Turbo could be an obvious upgrade path for those who lust for pure Android in a high-end phone.
