@amc400 The N5 cannot do VoLTE nor CDMA, so carriers that require it are out - important in the U.S. market.
Yes. So far as I know, AT&T stopped provisioning 3G voice for new activations back in February (fortunately my spare SIM was activated long before) and will shut down 3G voice in late 2021 or early 2022.
Verizon are shutting off 3G (CDMA) voice in December of 2020, and Sprint prior to the T-Mobile takeover had planned to shut down CDMA voice in January of 2023.
Of the major US carriers, only T-Mobile have not announced a date for 3G shutdown, but T-Mobile don't have the best track record of keeping their customers informed with much lead time.

Actually since OTA12, battery life on my N5 has improved a lot.
Before I could last at most 8h now it's up to 36 hours.
Haven't tested OTA12 on the Nexus 5 yet, but on the OnePlus One, I've observed the same thing. Battery life is hugely improved. Massive kudos to the developers!
