Nexus 5x is a good deal
The 5.2-inch display is the tipping point for one-handed Android phones. Reaching icons all the way across the big screen doesn't require two hands. It's not really a phablet
But it's close
That's how I'd describe its performance against its closest riv

The editors didn't like
Just 2GB of RAM
MicroUSB cables are useless
Plastic build
Then there are the things that haven't changed but should have. With 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage for the entry-level price
You're likely to max out both forms of memory more than a few times over the next year or two
The 2GB of memory affect
Battery life can be a little weak
And the Nexus 5X looks and feels cheap compared to similarly priced phones. The front-facing speaker sounds terrible
Only 2GB of RAM
No SD card slot
USB
C only
Specs trail other Androids
Your microUSB cables are useless
Rivals offer more accurate video and audio performance
Camera needs to improve
No expandable memory or storage
Plastic body
Non Quad-HD display
Crappy speakers
Poor battery life
No wireless charging
Slow & bare-bones stock camera app
And no support for USB Type-C data transfer speeds

Overall the Nexus 5X is a bit of a mixed bag. With its plastic back and light weight it does look and feel rather cheap, particularly the power and volume buttons, but it's actually quite robust and the smooth plastic back resists fingerprints well. It al...

It goes without saying that, if the way your phone looks matters to you, the Google Nexus 5X is not the smartphone for you. It's awkward and ugly to look at, especially in the powder blue pictured here, and feels rather cheap.If you don't give a hoot abou...
Back-to-basics without skimping on the good stuff While the Nexus 5X isn't the fanciest phone on the block, after using it for a few weeks we're impressed by what you get for the price. Compared to the off-contract price of something like the Galaxy N...
While previous Nexus devices have often disappointed in terms of raw technical specifications (Samsung's 2010 Nexus S being particularly notable, offering a single-core chipset running at 1GHz, just like its direct forerunner, the Nexus One), the Nexus 5X...
Great value, Slick performance, Top-notch finger scanner, Very good photo quality
Feels a bit cheap, Battery life is mediocre, USB-C will prove a pain to some
The Nexus 5X feels every bit the successor to the original Nexus 5 The Nexus 5X feels every bit the successor to the original Nexus 5. It's so overdue that the original now feels like a phone from another lifetime. It has all the phone's good bits, like...
Abstract: The LG-made Google Nexus 5X smartphone recently released, and as a Nexus device it's bound to be pretty popular. As many of us are increasingly enjoying mobile gaming, it makes sense to check out this aspect of a device before you purchase, especially if...
Abstract: Google is breaking from tradition this year by launching not one but two Nexus phones - the mid-range 5X and the premium 6P. The first handsets to launch with Android 6.0 - the latest version of Google's mobile OS - these are seen as the search company's...
Although the Nexus 5X offers good value for money, there's no denying that the OnePlus X is an incredible deal at under £200. The design is gorgeous and it offers expandable storage, a similar screen and decent cameras. However, if things like the fingerp...
Pure Android, Biometric recognition ace, Decent camera, Nippy
No expandable storage, Looks not brilliant, Internal storage only 16/32GB, No OIS on camera
The 5X is a lot more expensive than other phones with similar specifications but what you get for the extra £100-odd you pay over is an undiluted and pure Android experience, one of the best fingerprint scanners out there, NFC, Bluetooth, great camera and...

Plastic body, non Quad-HD display, crappy speakers, poor battery life, no wireless charging, slow & bare-bones stock camera app, only 2GB of RAM, and no support for USB Type-C data transfer speeds, no microSD storage, no optical image stabilisation
After all that we get the feeling the earlier Nexus 5, from 2013 , looks and feels much better than the current Nexus 5X. Sure, the rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and 1080p display make the 5X worth upgrading to, but it hasn't quite got the X fact...
