I love my Nexus 5. Pretty much does everything any brand new phone on the market today can do, and as a bonus it doesn't have all the shitty bloatware you can't get rid of without rooting. Also, you can buy them off contract straight from Google for $350...which is the tits

Those are all reasons that I have considered. The only drawback I can see right now is that the Nexus 5 apparently uses a micro SIM card rather than a normal sized card and I'd have to get the micro cards from TMobile. I need to contact them and see what that process would be.

I'm kinda curious how this OnePlus One phone is going to turn out.

Seems a little too good to be true from all the rumors. Flagship specs, Cyanogenmod out of the box, 5.5" screen that is smaller than the Z1 at Nexus prices? We'll see about that...

It does use a micro SIM. But in the past, I've just asked and they've typically given me one for free in-store.

I have a Nexus 5 on T Mobile. I am very pleased with it. I used to have the Samsung GS3 which I was also very happy with. The reason that I upgraded was to get LTE.

T Mobile works well where I live and spend 95% of my time. They are not good in rural areas. The Google Play Store version of the N5 does not have wifi calling for T Mobile. This is going to be a big challenge for me when I go skiing next month as there is no service in the area. With the SG3 I just used wifi calling.
