with that budget, don't buy anything but Nexus 5, and go for 32 GB version because there is not sd card slot.

There is no difference of battery in 16 GB and 32 GB (atleast from specs on Google play). Still I would too would prefer one with 32 GB.

Usually Nexus phones don't support OTG(same might be the case with N5)............

But wait.......... There is a solution... Get an externally powered USB OTG cable & install a kernel which supports OTG

Anyways, get a 32GB N5 & enjoy !!!

whats the launch date for Nexus 5 in India?

G2 with the same money is a better choice than N5.

 

[Techguy]

Nexus 5 reportedly has USB OTG working.. without the need for an external power supply
But better go for 32GB

G2 with the same money is a better choice than N5.

G2 is going for close to 43k on Flipkart and I don't think N5 will be prices higher than 32/33k. So there is a 10k difference between the 2 phones. Thats a lot!!

G.Nexus, N7 supports OTG through app known as Nexus Media Importer... without rooting.(this is paid app but free solution are available too)
afaik N4 does not support this apps
So in case of N5 it depends on app devs and its stock kernel.
If you have wifi at home then use family cloud storage apps which stores your media to PC and play whenever you want.

N5 supports otg.....

True man, N5 + OTG > Anything released within 2013
