Anyone else notice high battery drain from Android OS? I've had about 20 minutes of screen time so far and I'm down 20% from the OS drain, which racks up about 45% so far. Apparently it's the Keep Awake time and Updating to Google Play Services 4.1.32 is the fix, but hasn't helped me so far.

I'm getting consistent full day usage out of one charge. Might be some settings you need to tweak.

Had trouble consistently connecting to USB for charging. Phone also has 1 dead pixel that I've found so I'm exchanging it based on that

if its plugged in, it has a red LED to indicate power. if you place your phone on it, a green LED turns on to indicate that it is charging.
looks like this (taken with a shitty iPod camera)

Only constant running apps I have are Facebook, Line, Kakao, and Whatsapp. Some days i'll get 18 hours, some days 8.
I also noticed Adaway will sometimes fail to properly auto update (does so daily). It will keep trying until I manually fix it. This massively drains battery when I don't notice it.

By no means has my battery been "poor", I was at 60% by the time I threw it on the charger today at 5:00, and I had about 2 hours of screen time since taking it off at 7:30 this morning. Just confused about the Android OS thing. I restarted the phone and I'll see if that changes it.

I have to say I was hesitant about switching from my HTC one, but I really love the Nexus 5. This is the snappiest phone I've ever used, but the only thing I miss is a good speaker 
I'm finding that the battery life is pretty damn good contrary to what reviewers said. I'm usually getting about 16 hours with about 40% left at the end of the day, screen on time is around 2 hours usually and that's normal usage for me

I have a problem with the nexus 5 vibrate motor. It feel like its loose and sounds cheap.
Kinda sounds like a winding gear when have the touch feedback when typing.
I called google about getting a RMA, however they can't guarantee that my complaint is a defect and they may charge me for it.
Anybody else with a similar issue?

I have a N4 and I have the same issue. The vibration is horrible. It's weak and you can hear loose gears inside. I searched around and it seems to be a common problem with them. Maybe it's one of the things LG cheaped out on?

same issue on my N4 and N5
when you shake it you can hear a faint clicking
Anyone break the screen on their N5? Dropped it and the whole bottom corner shattered. Recommend a place/price to fix?

Anybody else with a similar issue? | My replacement Nexus 5 sounded like that when I first got it when it was on stock Android 4.4. Once I upgraded to 4.4.1/4.4.2 the vibration algorithm was improved and it feels perfect now.

My Nexus 5 came with a faulty cable. Wouldn't charge all day. Then I went to NCIX, got a new one and it charges in no time.
Battery life seems...just okay, so far.

If battery life is "just okay" compared to your iphone, something is wrong

I'd have to agree with Skinny. I get pretty amazing battery life on the Nexus 5.
Give it a few days.
