Hitting the sweet spot – capturing the soul of the Nexus family, the 5X offers top line performance in a compact, lightweight device that’s ready to take on the day with you. Beneath the 5.2 inch display is a hexa-core Snapdragon 808 processor
A powerful camera that captures more light- the all around camera we’ve ever put into a Nexus. But where it really shines is in conditions with less than ideal lighting. The larger 1.55 um pixels capture more light, even in the dimmest conditions, to produce details and sharp images. With a faster Google camera app, you never miss a moment and with the smart Google photos app, your memories are easy to relive and always at your fingertips
Simplified security: One fingertip – your Nexus is quicker and more secure with a fingerprint sensor. Placed on the back of your device to complement the way you naturally hold it, one touch will turn on your phone and unlock your apps for smooth, easy access
Running Marshmallow – It is an OS built from inside out. Nexus is designed to provide enhanced android experience. You will always receive software updates with fast version, Android 6.0 Marshmallow

Title: Priced closer to the budget end of the market, but don’t let that deter you.
Review: Love it, bye bye Apple and Microsoft. I was always an Apple fan but at £600 I decided to see what was on offer, bear in mind I am all Apple it was a big thing for me to look elsewhere however I wanted something new, different. I am a gadget person, nuff said!I hate contract tie ins and aside from that you are cheaper buying a phone than suffering the extra cost of getting one on a 2 year tie in deal, and oh yes you do pay more you slaves to monthly contracts! Appreciate however not everyone can afford to do so when you want the latest and greatest handset out there.At £200 it was worth a punt, when it arrived I was immediately put off by how lightweight it was, of course it’s plastic so it would be lighter than an iphone 6, HTC and so on. However I quickly liked how light it was. The build quality for the price you pay is not going to be equal to a £600 device however don’t be put off. It’s sturdy and the build is good.The screen is nice, clear and crisp. Swiping tapping is smooth, No delays and the screen does not get overly clouded with smudges.The finger print sensor was interesting, unlike most phones the sensor is on the back of the phone, however I really like it, when I pick up the phone my index finder is always at the back and a quick side over the sensor and it’s unlocked. A good decision on the placement.Camera is solid, very clear images, 12mp rear camera and 5mp front, 4k video all mean it holds it’s own against other more expensive units.Android is a solid operating system, in the phone market it’s got a large share now than Apple, there will be differences in the apps you can get between the two however the popular and common apps are found on both.One of the best things about buying an android phone by Google is that updates are very swift and you always get the latest version of the OS right away.Buy yourself an expensive Samsung or HTC and it has been known that you will need to wait up to a year for the latest OS update. Why? Well other phone manufacturers tend to make Android their own by modifying and adding things to it, that is fine however when a new version comes out, such as Android Marshmallow they need to test it and modify it again to make sure it works with their handsets. Great having the Samsung Edge S7 with an out of date OS and you miss out on great new features. Older phones tend to miss out as they don’t update them so you run a crazy old version.Google are to produce a name and shame list of the manufacturers still running very out dated Android software on their phones, it’s actually pretty shocking how outdated some are. Not trying to put people off any particular brand, just appreciate that your phone itself is not a mark of how up to date the Operating System will be.Anyway, at 5.2 inches the screen is a good size, not to small and not stupidly big like the 6 inch screens which of course is personal preference.With a hexa-core processor and plenty ram it will perform well for a long time to come, I get near two days out of the battery, that is with constant alerts, reminders and some listening to the radio. The USB C connection is still relatively new and you will find it difficult putting your hands on a spare one lying around the house however it’s the future so it will become common enough soon.I don’t have any great music or file collection so 32GB is way more than I will ever need, if you are the same then 16GB is probably fine however the current pricing suggests you save nothing so as well to get the bigger storage as you cannot upgrade later.A fine phone overall and given the number of devices I have had I don’t say that often.There are lots of other phones that are really good and cheaper, the flagship Wileyfox is a good phone for those on a tight budget, the One Plus is also a good effort. Unless they have a particular feature or design you want then I would suggest sticking to the Nexus, again these other phones use a modified version of Android such as Cyanogen. You might like it or you might not. It’s more likely going to be something that will affect existing users of Android on phones or tablets other than new.

Title: An excellent phone at a reasonable price
Review: I’ve had this phone for about 11 months and I love it. It’s not a pretty phone, so if you want an object of desire, look elsewhere. The screen is very clear and a good size for my ageing eyes, while still just fitting in a trouser pocket when walking the dog. The fingerprint reader on the back makes unlocking it simple as you pick it up, though less convenient when it’s on a stand or in a car holder. The camera is very good, though sometimes a little slow to respond. One of my main reasons for going with a Google phone was to get regular operating system updates. There are security updates every month and I’ve been running Android Nougat since it was released. The battery life has been better since upgrading to Nougat, and it usually lasts a full day, though I sometimes have to put it on charge towards the end of the evening. However, charging is very quick with the USB C charger, so it doesn’t take long to give it a quick boost. I bought the 32GB version and haven’t regretted it. If I’d gone for 16GB, I’d always be trying to free up space. As it is, I haven’t had to worry.

Title: Nice phone – shame it keeps turning into a brick
Review: I first bought one of these about 3 years ago, as a replacement for a Nexus 4. It’s a good basic Android phone, does everything one would want. However, after 18 months use the first one suddenly started rebooting itself over and over and despite my following lots of tech leads as to how that could be cured (thought I’d managed it at one stage but 36 hours later it started rebooting again) I eventually gave up. I still liked the phone though so decided to order another one. Big mistake. It was fine for 10 months but just this morning it suddenly turned into a brick again. I’m not a power user – just gmail, Twitter, some YouTube video clips, the occasional (not high-end) game. But now I find myself back looking for a new phone again – and this time it won’t be an LG one!edited to add: I will be interested to see if the claim I filed through Amazon this morning (against the seller, Smar Technics) succeeds. This manufacturing fault was obviously known about when I bought it from them 10 months ago but they were still selling them then. Bad practice.

Title: Poor battery, otherwise the phone is absolutely perfect.
Review: The only problem I have with this phone is battery. I am not a heavy user. I don’t listen to music on my phone. I read news articles and use messaging apps throughout the day, but no video streaming or games. It lasts me around 24 hours (from 100% to 15%) with WiFi and mobile networks always on. I know it’s not horrible by any means, but I was used to just a little bit more on previous phones. For instance, if I were to wake up at eight and only get home around midnight or early next morning, I would need to charge the phone during the day.Now the good stuff:It is well built with sturdy buttons and a fast and comfortable fingerprint scanner, easy to hold, the screen is gorgeous, the camera is crazy good for £200. Despite a somewhat outdated processor and only 2gb of ram, performance is excellent with no annoying stutters. And, most importantly of all, you get the latest and greatest of Android way before everyone else (and trust me, it is a bigger deal than it sounds, as every patch improves performance and security). It feels very high end, despite the plastic build and low price tag.

Review: I bought this unit on Aug-29. It came at a reasonable price and works fine. I specifically chose the H791 (worldwide) variant because it supports the maximum number of LTE bands, making it a good choice when traveling anywhere. Research the LTE band support carefully before choosing a variant of the Nexus 5x.Pros:- LTE band support- It is a Nexus – though the Google Nexus seems to have been wound down, release of all factory images and sources make this a good phone that will receive support and ROMS from XDA developers for years to come- Bootloader can be unlocked without jumping through hoops- Continues to receive Google security updates and Android updates. I am on Nougat 7.1.1 and Dec-01-2016 security level as of Dec-08-2016- It is slightly smaller than similar phones like the OnePlus One / OnePlus 3. I like this, but YMMVCons:- Only one SIM slot

Review: Preso da GLOBALPHONE SRLS a 274,24 + 9,76 di spedizione, lo smartphone è arrivato puntuale e imballato correttamente, inoltre ho ricevuto la versione con caricabatterie con presa italiana.Passo dal Nokia Lumia 820 con Windows Phone 8.1 causa caduta catastrofica: devo dire che Android è tutta un’altra storia. I miei amici che fanno informatica hanno da tempo il Nexus 5 e grazie al loro aiuto ho potuto customizzare questo 5X al meglio (consiglio la rom Pixel di Google che comprende il launcher Pixel).Il LED RGB posto al centro dell’altoparlante inferiore è molto limitato, non è settabile dalle impostazioni, consiglio quindi l’app Light Flow e potrete impostare il LED come meglio volete.Ho gradito moltissimo il Client di posta elettronica, credo sia il migliore al mondo, e ne ho provati molti.Sensore di impronte digitali estremamente rapido e comodo per sbloccare il telefono, inoltre estremamente accurato, ho fatto provare a sbloccarlo a moltissime persone, senza successo.Fotocamera ottima per quello che era un budget phone, HDR molto bello.Fluidissimo, rapidissimo, non ho di che lamentarmi… la batteria mi dura fino a sera col 15% rimanente e utilizzo medio/pesante, se avesse avuto la ricarica ad induzione sarebbe stata la ciliegina sulla torta.USB Type C a me nuova, mi sono abituato subito, comodissima da inserire dato che non ha un verso preciso. Incluso è presente un adattatore con USB Type C maschio e Micro USB femmina piccolissimo, sarà lungo 1cm.Una grave pecca (risolvibile con l’app Lux) è la luminosità automatica, che per qualche motivo a me non funziona, forse a causa della rom custom
