Each week we bring you best tech reads from around the web. This week's readings are centered on the Google Nexus 5 camera, HTC One Max, BlackBerry reshuffle etcetera.

1. Google rebuilds Android Camera Base: Nexus 5 marks a new symphony for Google. It's a phone made by Google, for Google.

Is it perfect not really.. its marred by a lackluster camera which is poor at autofocus and not really fast. This article by Stephen Shankland for CNET details the way ahead for Android Camera Technology.

2.

Frederic Lardinois of TechCrunch puts the details in this article.
