Nexus 5 the latest flagship device from Google, well no doubt it is undoubtedly the best device running stock android ROM till now but many users are complaining now their Nexus 5 screen has cracked after falling from a low height on a hard surface. Nexus 5 features 4.95″ screen Corning Gorilla Glass 3 but is it tough enough to resist daily falls and avoid cracks.
Well a user claims his Google Nexus 5 fell from his coat pocket on a hard surface and his Nexus 5 screen cracked from top side. On side bumpers not much cracks or marks were spotted but on screen it has got a lot cracks. Check below images.

Well Nexus 5 Screen Cracked after falling on a “hard surface”, concerned accepts that but does that much damage on screen should have been happened, that’s an question here.
Check the cracks on top corner of screen.
Some cracks on screen also appeared at bottom.

Cracks are developed in whole Nexus 5 screen.

Hi G.
Do you have photos of the damaged screen?

Hi. Have you heard of an LG Nexus 5 screen impact causing a hairline crack within the LCD which eventually causes fluid to bleed out leaving a dark spot on the screen? It looks like water damage but with no pathway from a speaker or button. It's simply a dark splotch in the middle of the phone. (Contact me for photos)
Thanks...Greg
Not yet mate...That seems very bad issue.
Can you send us your issue photos on our id admin@nexusauthority.com
My phone screen is also cracked for a minor fall. It is a shame that Google and LG have built a phone so fragile and I have found so many people with the same problem.

My Nexus 5 screen cracked after it slipped from my hand when I was sitting on a chair, falling from 2.5 feet. Disappointed.
Please sign a petition in change.org recall nexus.
My nexus 5 screen just cracked! Very similar to what has happened to one of the guys mentioned above, it slipped out of my hand, fell from the chair and it just cracked!
This is disappointing.
Same case with my phone :-(
My phone fell on road from my hand and the whole screen is smashed as if it has been run over by a car.
Very disappointed. and the worst part is the screen costs 1/4th of the phone's price.
the one thing that no one mention in a review is how the screen is so fragile and you can't just replace the glass you have to replace the entire screen
my phone slipped out of my hand while i am standing.
its outer screen is cracked.
It has broken on the same day i recieved.
I am really frustrated for such cheap case built by LG.
when asked to LG they will be charging of rs 9200 for whole assembly.
I am really worried :(.
my screen cracked..
a small stamp fell on my phone and it cracked .. very disappointing.
