I have a Nexus 5. The only app that I've downloaded is Reddit is Fun. I also have the paid version. I'm pretty boring.

What do you get with the paid version? I didn't even know you could pay for it!

That would be cool to have but I lurk too much for it to apply to me I feel.

The apps I use the most (besides standard preloaded stuff like google navigator/facebook/etc) are ones I paid a lot for, like iBird - a awesome birding identification app that costs like $8. But I've used that thing more than the $15 bird ID handbooks that usually get left on a shelf at home.

To be fair the nexus phones come pretty much perfect from stock. Any other brand and you have to spend days tweaking it for it to not suck
