Before the pixel existed I owned a Google Nexus 5 4 which was manufactured by LG and to date that was the worst phone I’ve ever owned. I guess my point is it doesn’t matter who is manufacturing the hardware; if Google is involved it’s gonna be junk.
Edit: it was a 4 not a 5 but either way it was such an awful experience I’ve never bought another piece of Google hardware since
I had a Nexus 5 (also LG) and it was the best I’d had for years. Ran lineageOS on it (maybe it was CyanogenMod still I can’t remember) but that thing was the shit.
I left it on top of my car once and ended up destroying it. Swapped the modem into an EU model (the modem and GPS module survived, all other components failed) and had basically a brand new phone afterwards.
Really? The Nexus 4 was my favorite device to date. I pushed mine to its limits, it was great. Even took a trip through the washing machine and still kept ticking.

The Nexus 4 was a great phone in my opinion.
Had it rooted and everything for about 6 years.

Wow. A quick dip in the toilet killed my 3a (but there might have been poop involved).
