As you can see comparison between z1 c and nexus 5 on gsmarena

Sony Xperia Z1 Compact vs. LG Nexus 5 - GSMArena.com

Announced date z1 c = January 2014,
nexus 5 = October 2013
if compare this.. then you can see anyway z1 c is better on specs sheet... but only on sheet....
z1 c is for those people who can't buy z1. but now the price different is not much between 2, z1 and z1 c...
other hand nexus 5 is a flagship device..

nexus 5 vs z1 c...
Sony Xperia Z1 Mini vs Google Nexus 5 - Mobile Phones Specs Comparison

did you used any android device earlier???
if yes.. then you should try nexus 5 only...
if not.. then you can go by specs sheet and choose z1 c.. but I will recommend nexus 5 only...

I was always ok with N5 and never considered Sony Z1C until i saw the spec and review on gsmarena. But after reading the review, it's looks much much better than N5.
Specs mean shite bro. Obviously unless you are into hardcore mobile gaming.

I haven't used a Z1C, but I have used the original Xperia Z for pretty long, it was my main phone before the Nexus actually. To be quite honest it was a very decent phone, but as soon as I started using Nexus 5 it was a one way traffic for me. Not only because I am dev, because even from a normal person's usage perspective N5 is great performer all around. I am not saying everything about the device is good, especially if you are a display buff, it doesn't have a great built too, a case is a must for it, but still, there's something wrong with every phone.

But always remember, you will never have the camera of Z1C, period. Camera isn't that much important to me, so it's not a problem for me.

So it depends on your preference, if you play a lot of GPU intensive games, take a lot of photos, and need something to show off ( that glass build looks good ), then go for Z1C. But if you want a phone with actual Android and see how beautiful Android is and meant to be, then go for Nexus 5.

Can anyone suggest a good case (No flip case) and screenguard for N5?. I have decided to go with N5

I think, you should check the bumper case from google play store, or buy from local store (100 rs) back case..
And screen guard (no need for this), I bought for my nexus 5 at 399 rs glossy scratch guard with 1 year 3 times replacement warranty.. there are still lots of variety than scratch guard/screen guard. search on google..

just get a tempered glass screen guard and a Capdase silicone cover,its very plain and retains the beauty of the phone and is extremely effective from impacts
I have this one-
Capdase Back Cover for LG Google Nexus 5 - Capdase : Flipkart.com
its easily available locally and is cheap
I paid Rs490 for it

spigen,amzer are also good alternatives though they have different design usually so your phones original look (without cover look) might change unless you find something similiar to my case
