Is the Nexus 5 or iPhone better?

Answer 1

It could be argued either way on which phone is better. I think it dpends on your needs...what do you want the phone to do for you? Do you care about specs? Is user experience more important? Do you want to access certain features in the phone across most platforms? What about software customization? I think these are things to consider before deciding on either phone.
