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
Good value, Impressive fingerprint scanner, Camera performs well, Lovely design
Materials makes it feel cheap, Inconsistent performance
What we think The Google Nexus 5X, produced by LG, is the impressive successor to the Nexus 5. We have tested this phone thoroughly, and we’re impressed with Google’s new beta software, “Android N”. The Nexus 5X boasts a 12.3MP camera which we were ver...

Abstract: Google's range of Nexus smartphones may be produced in collaboration with OEM partners, but they are nonetheless some of the best Android handsets around. The Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P - manufactured by LG and Huawei respectively - are no exception. The diffe...

Quick charging, Good battery life, Android Marshmallow
Only 2GB of RAM, No SD card slot, USB, C only
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...
