Comparison review
The Google Nexus 5 is slightly better than the Samsung Galaxy A10s, getting a score of 76 against 73.8. The Google Nexus 5 is an extremely older and a little bit thicker cellphone than Samsung Galaxy A10s, but Google was able to make it way lighter anyway. Both of these phones have Android OS, but Google Nexus 5 has newer 4.4.3 version while Samsung Galaxy A10s has Android 11, so it provides the user a couple additional features.
Google Nexus 5 counts with a bit better processor than Galaxy A10s, because although it has an inferior number of cores , and they both have a 2 GB RAM memory, the Google Nexus 5 also counts with an extra GPU. The Google Nexus 5 counts with a much better screen than Samsung Galaxy A10s, because although it has a bit smaller display, it also counts with a much greater screen density and a higher 1920 x 1080 resolution.
The Galaxy A10s features a very superior memory for applications and games than Google Nexus 5, and although they both have the same internal storage, the Galaxy A10s also has a slot for an SD memory card that holds up to 512 GB. Galaxy A10s features a slightly better camera than Google Nexus 5, and although they both have the same video quality and the same 30 frames per second video frame rates, the Galaxy A10s also has a much more mega-pixels camera in the back and a lot bigger diafragm aperture to take better low light photos and videos.
The Galaxy A10s features a really longer battery lifetime than Google Nexus 5, because it has a 4000mAh battery size.
Although Google Nexus 5 is a better device, it costs a lot more than Samsung Galaxy A10s, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Samsung Galaxy A10s. So if you need that extra specs, you can buy Google Nexus 5, otherwise you can save some money and buy the Samsung Galaxy A10s, letting go a couple specifications.
