The editors didn't like
Camera that — in reality — is not great. Hardware is good. Software isn't
Design is good
But construction less so — it creaks a bit
Battery life can be really variable
Instances of lag common
However could be software related
Battery life lacklustre unless Doze is frequently utilised
Front speaker loud but not great
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
No expandable storage
Lesser battery life
Unflattering design
No microSD slot
Google's "Now on Tap" isn't always useful
Design makes it so that you won't always find it easy to pull out of the pocket the right way or place your finger on the sensor
Occasional speed drops that feel like there phone is falling over
There's just 2GB of RAM
Starts at 16GB of internal storage
Your microUSB cables are useless
No wireless charging capabilities
Battery could be better
16GB of non-expandable storage in entry level model
Inexpensive and unlocked, Onehand friendly, 5.2inch display, Android Marshmallow
There's just 2GB of RAM, Starts at 16GB of internal storage, Your microUSB cables are useless, No wireless charging capabilities
You can operate Google's compact Nexus 5X with one hand – and it has a smaller price, too, compared with the metal Nexus 6P. Its fingerprint sensor and USB-C port take some getting used to, but it's ultimately a future-proofed phone everywhere but its mem...
If your priority is appearance, the Google Nexus 5X is not the phone for you. However, if you don't give a hoot about that – and, don't forget, you can always pop it in a case – the Nexus 5X is hugely appealing. The camera is simply stonking: it's fast an...

The LG Nexus 5X is a solid effort by LG and Google to return the idea of an “affordable” Nexus handset. It's undergone a number of improvements which are certainly enough for many currently cradling a Nexus 5 to be able to upgrade to the 5X rather freely...

I think you'd have to say that, on balance, the Nexus 5X has been a significant success for both LG and Google. It is a worthy evolution of the Nexus brand, and certainly a powerful handset that will be bought and enjoyed by many.There's a lot to be excit...
The only issues we had with the Nexus 5X were those with camera lag and the bugginess of switching between photo aspect ratios. Other than that, this is a fantastic phone; one of the best we've ever reviewed and so far my personal favourite of 2015. Of...
Beautiful in its design simplicity, Excellent stock Android implementation, Much improved camera versus Nexus 5 and 6
Now on Tap has mediocre accuracy and utility, Only 16GB and 32GB storage, Expensive starting price for a Nexus
Do you want a smartphone that doesn't have unnecessary bloatware? One that doesn't even have unnecessary hardware frills? Then you want the Google Nexus 5X. Earlier on, I called it a flat slab of sensible computing, and that's precisely what it is. There'...

As much as we love what LG and Google have accomplished with the Nexus 5X, we're stuck on one thing: the price.With a starting price of $659, we really don't understand why the 5X is a phone attracting such a high tag. Granted, there's been a two year gap...
