guys getting these phones on almost same prices which are under 23k, moto g is 1 week used, and galaxy s4 is few months older, and nexus is also few months olders. i am confused between these phones. i have no concerns with the camera, i need a phone with best performance and built quality also screen quality should be good. however i need to buy a phone which should be almost new. if there is any other phone in 23k range which is much better than above mentioned phones please do let me know. or suggest me for which phone should i go ASAP.
REGARDS.

Nexus 5.
Battery and camera are crap but good phone overall.

S4 lags like constipated shit unless you put a custom ROM on it, better camera than Nexus 5.

And 2nd Gen Moto G doesn't really compare with these two since the specs are almost the same as the 1st Gen.

yaar actually i like moto g 2nd gen for its build quality. as i myself am using moto g first gen. its a pretty much good phone in performance and good build quality. but it comes with 5 inches screen only with 720p resolution. so i am assuming its screen quality will not be that good. so its out of the list now . talk about S4 and nexus 5 overall comparisons? build quality ? battery life ? screen quality and performance . plus point is nexus comes with 2GB ram

Even build quality of 2nd Gen. Moto G won't be as good as it's predecessor, at least what I've read and heard about it. Let's put it this way: if you want a premium looking and feeling phone with better build quality get the N5 (assuming it's the Black version) otherwise White one is like GS4 cheap plastic phone OR if you want to have a better battery timing + a durable phone (yep, Sammy plasticy phones are durable) get the GS4.

BTW, S4 also comes with 2GB of RAM last I checked (?).

LG G2 maybe ? had nexus 5 for a while , battery was not good at all for me , camera was okay , performance and screen was excellent , also used the s4 i9506 , if you are thinking of s4 , then surely go for i9506

i am getting both these phones few months older i will check both these phones hand to hand before buying . i need a phone with good battery timings, i dont know how these 2nd hand phones are used by previous owners so i am assuming the battery timings will not be as much good as new.
on comparing nexus and GS4 which phone gives good battery timing ?

Galaxy s4 would give much better battery timings than Nexus 5 , on a side note currently i am getting better battery than N5 and s4 on my G2 , also if you just want excellent battery , droid maxx hands down , 9.5-11 hours screen on time , nearly 2-3x the screen on time compared to s4

i am getting 2 months old nexus 5 LTE enabled in black color in 23k is it worth buying ?
Don't buy crappy Nexus 5 it has shitty battery timing buggy os. Lots of users complained about screen issues.

Instead get S4 since its way more classy then Nexus 5 has better camera awesome battery. Stable os, but it only lags if you use extreme heavy apps or consume 90% of your phones internal memory.

Your second choice should be Moto G which is also a decent phone after S4 don't even waste a penny by getting Nexus 5. Since that would be the stupidest decision you'll ever make...no offence though.

You can have true android experience on either nexus or note series! They are icons of android, I believe! Go for nexus 5; it is an amazing phone!

28K is fine if its a international version otherwise if they are same carrier locked sets then it would be waste of money.

Good condition S4 is now available for around 21k here in Khi now so better get one of those if you can.

I don't know about refurbished. But surely they are carrier locked sets from AT&T,T-mobile,verizon,metropcs,sprint etc.

Got cash? S4. Need to stay in budget, Moto G. Both are really good phones. Using both atm. Even consider getting a used S4. Keep in mind MotoG 1st Gen doesn't support 4G LTE.
