The Nexus 5X is a lot like the Nexus 5, but in all the ways that aren't so good.
For a lot of Nexus fans, the original LG Nexus 5 is like a folk hero. The stories we tell after the phone has been replaced and shelved with the other mobile relics are about this amazing superphone that changed the industry with its impressive specs and remarkably low price tag.
And as is often the case with folk heroes, reality is a little different. The Nexus 5 was a decent phone, but the price tag was the most interesting thing about it.
Since the launch of the original Nexus 5, the $300 to $400 price range has exploded with a number of compelling options. Google took a year off from this space with the launch of the Nexus 6, but this year we've got two Nexus phones, and Google clearly has aimed one of them at that sweet price point. The Nexus 5X is Google and LG working together to create a successor to one of the most popular Nexus phones we've ever seen, with the latest version of Android powering this $380 nostalgia machine. The big question is whether these two companies were able to push this new Nexus 5 from mediocre to exceptional to compete in the market they helped create.
Here's our review.
About this review
I (Russell Holly) have been using the Nexus 5X for 10 days, split evenly between Google's Fi network and Verizon Wireless in Baltimore and Hurst, Texas. This Nexus 5X, which was provided by Google, is running build MDB08G, which is Android 6.0 for those who don't speak fluent build number.
During most of the review period, a Moto 360 2015 was paired to the phone.
