NEW DELHI: Though it is nearly a year old, LG- manufactured Google Nexus 5 is still ranked among the
best value-for-money smartphones in India.
However, a number of those 1.72 lakh in India who have purchased
the smartphone since its launch in November 2013 are bitter about Nexus 5 developing serious battery problems within a few months.
One of our colleagues has been using Google's Nexus 5 for over five months now.
She often charges her phone by
connecting it to her laptop when at work.
Over time, the battery life of her smartphone has rapidly degraded. She has to plug in the charger at least thrice in 24 hours.
A few days ago, when she connected her Nexus 5 smartphone to her laptop in order to charge the battery, her phone's charging duct heated up.
"When I tried to remove and re-plug my smartphone, I noticed that the USB and charging duct of the phone had become really hot and a strong burning smell was coming out of the charging port," she told us.
