Amazon currently has the Sprint Nexus 5 on sale for $34.99 on-contract, which allows for considerable savings over the $149.99 Sprint is charging online and in-store.
The Nexus 5 is Google's latest flagship smartphone and it comes packed with all of the top of the line specs and features you'd expect from Google. The company has paid special attention to the Nexus 5's imaging capabilities and packed in a high-end 8-megapixel rear camera that uses an advanced lens, bringing in 58 percent more light and optical image stabilization (OIS) to ensure that you won't have to worry about taking pictures in low light or blurry action photos. Since this is a Nexus device, you're also guaranteed to always have the latest and greatest version of Android whenever Google updates the OS.
