Will you do a Nexus 5 teardown?

As per subject, will you do an extensive Nexus 5 teardown, for what is arguably the most leaked phone in the history of leaked phones?

I think we can trust the iFixit team to give us such a beautiful teardown as usual!

  • Last year the Nexus 4 was announced on November 13th and the teardown was created on 16th!

Who want to bet on the repairability score? The Nexus 4 was 7 of 10. Can the Nexus 5 be better than 7?

Finally it's a very nice 8 out of 10. Wonderful!

Yep! After the Surface Pro 2 and iPad Air, it was a refreshingly easy device to take apart. Check out the

I am guessing worse, not better. I am betting 6 out of 10.

Nexus 5 Teardown

Looks good, shame about the screen replacement ease. Time to invest in a decent screen protector?
