God damn you UBports, I just want to tinker with the OS why can't you just release a generic image for virtualisation -.-

Instead I'm stuck hunting a Nexus 5 down... Ugh

Considering how spectacularly my own Nexus 6P failed (3 months after purchase it not only had power-offs at 20+% battery but even got the dreaded BLOD where the big cores fail), I'd really reconsider buying any Nexus device. Google is clearly not good at building hardware. Buyer beware!

@Condor I never had issues with my 6P, still my favourite phone till my partner dropped it and smashed the screen .-.

@lxmcf consider yourself lucky then.. I quite liked the phone back when it worked, but having a paperweight in my bedside table now - after only 3 months of having owned it! - quite hurts. Not having been able to buy a replacement (bastard who's managing my money out of courtesy of my *beloved* mother couldn't do his fucking job) of course doesn't help. I bought this Nexus for the ability to easily get into Android development.. well it sure was a nice device to dick around with when it comes to custom ROM's, but in the 3 months of its lifetime with me, I didn't quite manage to learn Android development. That thing was all of its money straight down the drain. And there's plenty more devices to do that with anyway.. pretty much any device that isn't fucking MediaTek, and has its kernel open sourced.

@Condor all up to preference I guess, I love stock android so I stuck with nexus and pixel (fuck the pixel 3 and it's ET notch) but recommend the Nokia devices without notches to everyone.

But I loved the concept of Ubuntu touch and UB ports interests me now that I'm looking at more 'serious' programming I guess you could say, just looking for a device that is supported and apparently the nexus 5 has the best support for everything ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
