Yes, you can get at the Google Now screen by swiping from the left, but you can also still get at it by swiping up just as before.

My review is biased because I was coming from a far inferior phone. The size is perfect. Not too small to read on, not too large to hold or put in my pocket.
I actually like hangouts once I figured it out. I like being able to text to my phone contacts and Google+ contacts all in one place without a separate app. Also, I like how it is set up, the functionality is good.
I know I'm not the norm here, but I love the camera. The shutter time is faster than any phone or camera I've ever owned and the pictures aren't blurry. Plus that 360 thing is just awesome.
Battery. Sigh. Inconsistent. Still a ton better than my last phone, but I was hoping for better.
I turned Google Now off. I liked it, but it was eating my battery.
OK Google is great. Too great. My daughter keeps stealing my phone to do her homework with it or asking it random questions.
Speeds are great for me. As fast as my computer, and in some cases faster.
I love giving my opinion so if there is anything else you want to know, just say the word!
