Bootloops after 2 years +, just in time for the warranty to expire

It seems the CPU is 64-bit but OS is only 32-bit, right?

It's been a decent phone for the 3+ years I had it. Until the dreaded bootloop. Just ended up getting a different replacement. 5x definitely had some nice features that I wish were in the phone I bought to replace it. I think it took a performance hit with Android 8.0 installed. Just with it couldve lasted longer.

Mine just started bootlooping today, it lasted a year and four months. I never played any games in it and i thought that it would at least last 2 years, well luckily i bought it for very little money. Now i'm getting an iPhone

Just to post comment about bootloop, my Nexus 5X got it yesterday. Next month it would be full 3 years how I own it, it was great phone, but yesterday just freezed for few seconds then restarted itself and started bootlooping. I loved kamera and that simple Android OS, but now it's time to buy something else.

Have been using it for 4 years now, to problems at all, awesome phone, not even a boot loop issue or anything. Best phone i ever had, but previously i used galaxies for many years.

Bob

Happened to me and Google replaced it.

Sensible Guy

Don't buy: even as a second hand phone, the risk of the phone entering a boot-loop is too great and unless it's covered under warranty it could cost a lot to replace the motherboard (which is the only certain fix)

hi, i think in the page of developers google, are the ota's for flash in this device Nexus 5x search nexus 5x update on google

Nexus lover

I've been using this phone since january, and i love it! The things i love the most are: 1st the android vanilla, very fluid, stable and fast. 2nd, The fast charging capabilities. Amazing to see my phone full charged in around an hour. And 3rd his amazing camera. Just very crisp and detailed for the price (i've paid like $100 u$s). Lately i have been a little worried for the known hardware issues of this model. I was wondering if i should sell it regardless of my excitement for this phone while is still covered with warranty. And if i should. Then what is the logical upgrade?. I was considering the Xiaomi Mi A1 but im not very convinced about the camera. Do you guys have any recommendation?

WattoCow

how did you fix it ??

Mine just started to bootloop.

I bought one back in December 2016 and in September 2017 while just browsing my email it crashed. Because it was still in warranty I took it to the place I bought it from looking for a fix but they just gave me a brand new one and said it was dead. The second time around I used the new phone from October 2017 till August 2018 and THE SAME THING HAPPENED! IT WILL JUST DIE AT SOME POINT, IN BOTH CASES LESS THAN A YEAR. while I loved the phone dearly, that's unacceptable and I definitely don't recommend it

Anthony Hill

I bought a Nexus 5X from a friend new in 2016. It seemed to work fine for 2 years and then suddenly, last week, I rebooted the phone and it has never turned on since then. What a disappointment, just glad I didn't pay a lot for it.

Anonymous

there was a class action lawsuit against google because of this phone's bootloop issues. I thought mine was not defective, but it also developed the same hardware-based bootloop later on, so i'm now looking for a new phone. Hope that info helps you.

Hi,wanna ask, is your phone nexus 5x does not have any issue for now? Like the bootlooping and battery issue?

Very neat phone. Screen died after dropping it in water so I replaced it myself as it was out of the warranty, works fine and only replacing it this month as the proximity sensor died making calls difficult.

Sebs

It was the best phone I had ever. Easy to handle.. But after 2 years; it suddenly dead. When I show it in the service center they said many phones have the same issue. We have nothing to do with it. Here I had seen that many people experienced the same issue. very much disappointed..

Nitin

It's a horrible phone . When I got this phone in November 15 I thought it is wonderful phone but after two and half years my phone become quiet in March 18. I send it to service center Delhi. They changed its mother board of RS 13500 approx. After 2 and half month this phone is not displaying any thing again I sent it again to l. G service centre Delhi. They changed its motherboard and display again in RS 5115.00. So when I bought its cost RS 32800. Now I have spent to repair this phone approx rs 20000 . So don't buy this phone. So I have waisted my 50000 RS for this phone. Because of our Indian man respected sunder pichai I bought this phone. But I m very much in pain after getting this phone.

Such a shame about this phone. Bought it in July 2016 as the natural successor to the excellent Nexus 5. Used it constantly through to October 2017 when it suddenly started bootlooping, while I was abroad on holiday naturally. Nothing worked, tried recovery mode/reflashing and replacing the kernel according to a couple of articles on the subject. No joy. I wasn't even completely sure I'd encrypted since the most recent factory reset, so did want to give it away for spares. Ended up smashing it up with a hammer and dumping it. While I was using it, I really enjoyed it. The screen was better than the Nexus 5 though the battery life still left a bit to be desired. Fingerprint sensor was excellent, just a little hesitant with damp hands. I replaced it with some Huawei junk that I loathe as that was all I could afford at short notice. Wish the Pixel range had followed the cost-effective and high quality Nexus 5 path.

paco2x

I think the only solution for the overheating and to prevent the bootloop is to mod the phone, no matter how many times you send to fix the board, it will fail because the SoC generate too much heat. You will need: Good quality thermal paste like Artic MX-4 and thin copper plate. There are some tutorials on YT about the modding process on the N5X. If your N5X got the bootloop, the mod won't do much, i recommend to reflow the board to revive the phone and then apply the mod.

Olle

That sort of handling just proves that they don't know what they are talking about. Everyone in the mobile business should know by now that the boot loop issue is a real problem with the Nexus 5X. It's a construction fault. Connecting it with a scratch on the glass is just ridicilous. I certainly hope that most Nexus 5X owners are met more professionally than this!

Hans

It's easy to open the device since once you have the plastic back cover off it's all screwed into place. That doesn't mean the boot loop issue is easy to fix though since that is a failure of soldering on the main logic board. You can easily replace that logic board but it will cost you as much (or even more) as a new second hand Nexus 5X phone. Replacing a screen or battery are better examples since these are also easy to reach and replace and are found for cheap online. The screens often come with the complete metal frame already in place making the replacement very easy.

JC

I live in Canada and LG are now repairing the boot loop issue but there's a catch... They repair only the phone that are in perfect condition. I hope everyone keep a note on how LG handled this issue before buying another LG product. They should have recalled all phone to fix the issue since it's there for everyone! That's what a serious company would have done to keep their reputation. Here's my story: LG customer support asked me to send the phone to a repair shop. I did and then, they charged me 35$ and did not repair the phone because it had a scratch in the glass! LG confirmed that it's their policy. I tried to explain that the scratch in the glass and the boot loop issue are not related but they just repeated the same non sense over and over.

Mine after 1 year and 10 days... But lg uk repaired it for free

7Car

How long was the turnaround? Mine started boot-looping after 2.5 years. I had to explain the 30 month warranty to them but they then complied. Would have thought they would offer a discount for a new LG. Thx

Olle

Yes, it is supposed to be one of the easier phones to take apart and put together again, but watching YouTube videos on this it doesn't look all that simple. When I had the boot loop problem I was considering it but it all seemed to be a rather arduous task. I chose to let LG do the repair when I found it was possible for free within three years from the purchase (in Sweden). My guess is that you can probably ruin the phone even more if you don't have any experience doing these kind of repairs and you still have to buy the parts. I may have a go at this though for fun in the future if the phone breaks down again.

This device is too easy to repair, you can buy the parts by yourself an do it! Not like iPhone an shit

AnonD-757431

my carrier is denying my warranty because i had a small line (a crack, not shattered) on the screen and that was the cause of the death of my motherboard. i've never had any problems with the touch screen because of the crack and i can't see connection between the two. they wrote me that “the phone cannot be fixed' so i'll try somewhere else

Hugh McMark

Also had boot loop after 2 years and 2 months of service. Not a very long life!

Olle

I bought my phone in november 2015 and the battery still gets me through the day. I am perhaps not an extremely heavy user playing video games all day long but I have certainly used the phone a lot, so I suppose it can vary with different phones how well the battery lasts. I got the boot loop after 2 years and 3 months, got it repaired without costs, and now it is working fine again, but I avoid letting the phone get to hot.

Billys

After 2 years and 2 months with the phone I ve seen the good and the bad of this phone. Advantages: - Maybe the best camera for this price range - Great android experience for light users (Running many apps can fill up the 2 GB RAM easily) - Pretty fast for its time. The processor is good enough even in 2018 (still for light users only due to low RAM) Disadvantages: - Bad battery life (I could never get more than 4 hours and 30 minutes SOT) usually max 2 hours 30 minutes if I tried to keep it alive after 24 hours. - Bootloop or Logic Board failure is a very common issue for this device, mine died one week before. - Overheating especially at summer is leading to cpu throttling and eventually to some lag on UI.

I bought the Google Nexus 5x in May of 2016 and back then I was so excited about it because of its amazing camera, fingerprint sensor and the stock android experience. Two years later and my opinion is now totally different. First of all let's start with the build quality. The fact that this phone is made out of plastic makes it feel cheap and also the color makes it very slippery( The third day I had it it slipped out of my hands and the phone made it's first scuff). Second thing I want to mention is the battery because it's very very bad now that the phone runs on Android 8.1.0. and I can't make a day without charging it 3 or 4 times (bare in mind I make a heavy use ). Also another thing that is seriously affected by the android version is its performance. The phone has become so slow and baggy and it gets extremely annoying especially in every day use. For example when you get out of an app the home screen is empty for a couple of seconds and it also might rotate in landscape even if you hold it horizontally. The multitasking has become a serious problem too and the fact that even Google apps become hard to use annoys me the most. Besides all those drawbacks though the Nexus 5x has a really big advantage and that is the camera. You can take incredible pictures with it and although it was made in 2015 it can still hold up really well with other big flagships today like the iPhone X. In the end though I am not really happy with it and I would not recommend it to anyone even if his looking for a budget smartphone.

Olle

Seems that you got a bad copy. The camera has always been very good for me (accept for the upside down videos when using a third party program) and is one of the reasons I like the phone so much. My phone doesn't get THAT hot so I can't hold it. Hope you get it repaired without trouble.

AnonD-757431

my LG Nexus 5X died about year and a half since i've bought it. i still have love-hate relationship with this particular type because i loved it for many reasons but it got bad pretty fast. Black dot appeared on camera and never went away, sometimes when used it was too hot to be held comfortably, in winter i couldn't use it outside because the cold made it turn off...often i had problems with the screen freezing randomly and i still loved the phone because it wasn't THAT bad. But then one day it just died...no warning, no possibility of entering the boot mode, wasn't charging, not one sign of life. The evaluation process from my carrier is still in progress and i'll wait and see if they repair it under warranty which expires on 27.10.2018

AnonD-424937

Yes that correct

Billys

The problem with this phone is overheating. Using the phone for just 5 minutes is enough to make it overheat when I used it at summer. So after 2 year and 2 months it died. And I always tried to avoid games and heavy apps in order to avoid this problem but I guess it happens to everyone eventually.

Olle

The bottleneck may well be that the phone only has 2 GB ram.

AnonD-557820

I've been using this phone for 2 years. For 1.5 months if I play vedios for 1/ more hr then the phone lags. I've tried different players and factory reset. But no improvement. What to do?

Olle

Yes, it is the heat that destroys the motherboard which causes the bootloop and makes the phone useless. I managed to get mine repaired without costs after I had been using it for over two years. I really like this phone and want to be able to use it for as long as possible so now I try not to let the phone get too hot. The camera is great, the fingerprint function is good and I appreciate the clean Android and always getting the latest updates (at least so far).

AnonD-424937

Do you play games and let the phone get hot? " if you protect the phone from heat then he will not fry the motherboard and he will live long... But my problem that I play clash of clans and he was getting very very hot on this lite game..

stang

I've had this phone for 3 years, never a problem except once when I cracked the screen (which I got fixed). phone still going strong. I guess I was one of the lucky ones.

AnonD-424937

Yes that is! This phone is only for calling and maybe camera... Anything make this phone hot... You should not use it... Even on whatsapp.. He came very hot

AnonD-753908

Yes, the processor is fast, but it is also the cause of destroying the phone's motherboard. I have one - and I wished If the comment was there earlier - which could help me not going for it. Don't go for it if you are into continuous use for about a hours types... this phone's processor will fry it out.

AnonD-424937

Hahaha the processor cause the bootloop! This processor get hot very bad... It is fast... But it get hot fast too! And this high temperature with time burn the motherboard and cause the bootloop

This is a great phone when it is working. The best thing is the camera, great sharpness, very good and natural colours under almost all lighting conditions. Difficult to find a phone with only 12 MP that takes such good pictures. After just over two years I got the booloop problem. After some resistence from the shopkeeper I managed to get it fixed by LG without costs. In Sweden there is a law that makes this possible within 3 years when it is a factory fault. I first contacted Google who tried to help me but it is a very well known hardware problem. The service was very quick when it all got going. It's nice to be able to use it again. What I don't like is that it doesn't have a memory card slot and it should have more than 2 GB ram memory. Apart from the camera I like the clean Android and the clean and simple design. It's a bad thing with this bootloop problem, but I hope to be able to use this phone another couple of years.

mhr_kambli

Been using for over a year now. Overall good performance. Excellent camera, both front and rear. Macro range for rear camera could have been better. Battery is just terrible. Slight heating issue. Display is ordinary. Fingerprint is still super fast even after a year. If you work by a desk where you can constantly charge the phone, then this isn't a bad option. +1 point for design. When some brand makes a 16gb phone they must add sd card slot!!!

I have this phone for about 19 months ... 260USD. Only problem which i experienced was last year when oreo released..screen shows erorr..i fix it with hard reset x2, after working fine..in my hands this phone shows excellent.

AnonD-749251

I have my Nexus 5X for about 1.5 years now (since November 2016), with no repairs or anything. Would I recommend this phone? Not really... the heating is extremely bad in my experience, phone heats up even when I'm just chatting with someone through Facebook Messenger on WiFi... during heavier games the phone is seriously very hot, after a while of playing such games I have to put the phone down because it's uncomfortable to hold it. Performance in games is not great these days, Android Oreo update decreased my performance a bit too. It can easily do simple tasks of course, Android itself is very smooth but heavier games not so much. Getting this phone for the newest updates isn't a good idea anymore since it just received its last big update, this phone won't get the Android P. For this price, you can probably get better phones these days and you won't risk getting bootloops (which I didn't experience but it's still something to consider). Camera, battery life, display, build quality are all fine, phone gets me through a day pretty easily (though the glass on camera fell off from my phone for some reason, had to glue it back...maybe for the heat?). Speaker isn't great. Rooting the phone and installing EX Kernel Manager helped me to get more battery life and also made the heating slightly more bearable. Custom ROMs are also good but many died when this phone got the Android 8.1 update (for example my favorite PureNexus, OmniROM, though Omni got a new dev). After those 1.5 years of using and on the latest Android Oreo update with April security update, my scores in benchmarks are: Antutu:64029 Geekbench: 977 single core, 2528 multi core (keep in mind that my phone is rooted with EX Kernel)

AnonD-424937

Every nexus 5x will die in a day... Don't worry about that guys... Mine got repaired by lg.. But he will probably die again after a year...

Got this phone on Amazon for £235 unlocked and brand new, and it was the best phone i had used in a long time. Roll on 14 months later, no end of trouble with it and i made the mistake of letting the battery run to zero, and it never turned on again. LG was not interested despite their flagship devices having the bootloop issue, which also included the Nexus 5X.

My nexus 5x got repaired for free... He wasn't under warranty... But in uk lg repaired it for free... But anyway... I will not use it anymore... I will try to sell it... I bought a huawei mate 10 lite... Much better... Specially the 4 gb of ram... Only the camera on my nexus look more natural in low light condition.. And the battery of the nexus 5x is very bad... It last half a day... On mate 10 lite it last 1 day and half with heavy use... It is all my friends... It is the time to look to a new phone... The pixel is very very expensive for me... Go to huawei...

This phone really doesn't deserve to be a part of Google Nexus family. After 6 months I went to LG customer care to replace the Sim trey. The repair executive repaired the sim trey but I don't know while repairing he came to me as showed me that Proximity Sensor is not working and I was asked if I want to get it replace I have to pay around INR 12000. Though my phone is still in warranty. The only reason I have lost the bill. And when I asked to sale it I got an offer from the same executive INR 5200 after Proximity sensor repair. WoW what a deal ....

Good phone while works, unfortunately they last about a year or so. I had two in last two years, one was replaced under the warranty and second one died in a year. No replacement for the last.

Joseph

I got my phone about 6 month and it's working perfectly. So far best phone I ever had.

Bob Dole

It's a fast phone for 2016-18 (as of typing this). Moderate battery life (using it all day while working will definitely leave it dead by the time you're commuting home). Physically strong. However, there was a number of these phones with a major issue: getting stuck in boot loops after a few months to a year of use. Since the warranty by the manufacturer lasts only 1 year and nothing was done to rectify this short lifespan, it's reason to be critical. That said, the phone has been sturdy for me. I've had multiple drops, scratches and dents (nothing on the glass) for both the first phone and the replacement (I got the boot loop days before the warranty was up).

CD

Complain at LG USA via Twitter, mine was fixed twice out of warranty totally free, just need a friend or family to send the phone to USA :/ ... They offer FedEx label to free shipping inside USA, I complain about a LG G4 buyed at 2015 and they offer to me repair it too if I send the phone. If you claim they strongly they respond.

Hi, I had this issue, but it was solved by sending to the magazine (warranty) and the guys fixed the issue. It's been 6 months since then and it's working fine

Bought at release, still going strong. No issues.

Vinay

Guys, Please DO NOT Buy this phone. This phone has a BOOTLOCKER issue that can never be rectified. The phone simply stops working all of a sudden. And when I take it LG Authorized centres they blatantly tell me that LG is aware of this issue and they themselves do not know the solution to fix this issue.They say if my phone is in warrenty they will replace it but mine is not. And therefore, nothing can be done. I pre-ordered this phone thinking Nexus which was a flagship Google Product but am super disappointed by this experience. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. !!

guti

I thought Google was more comprehensive with the client but no, if something it's good in Nexus 5x they say because it's Google, the problems it's because LG made de phone, what a shame. Google knows there's a problem with the manufacturing of Nexus 5x, because al phones sooner or later get the the boot loop problem, what they do ? substitute the equipment? no, wait that most warranty finished and wash their hands, Google/LG phones? never more.

Worked really Good for two years. Then Boot-looping. LG knows that this is an issue with the majority of its handsets yet still they choose to do nothing and hope the problem goes away unnoticed. Well we have noticed and have taken note. I used to love LG now I will never buy from them again.... They could have done the honorable thing, a total recall replace even at a small cost.

i upgraded from a nexus 5 to a 5x and i must say, its a worthy successor and a carrier of a legacy. used it for maybe 6 months and i was satisfied just as i was with the 5. but however due to the fear of bootloop striking me, i sold it. it would be my recommendation if it wasnt for that only issue, still however, its 2018, either you save one up in a box for a display, or you look for something newer.

Marylou

Got a Nexus 5X last November. It worked great until yesterday it was dying so I plugged it in to charge. Then once I plugged it in, it shut down and did not restart. I now have learnt that my phone has just died from the sudden Nexus 5X Boot Loop death!! And my warranty literally just expired a month ago! Why would a company like to waste people's money but make sure their butt is covered for just a year then have it die? If anyone is wanting to have a long lasting phone, do NOT buy a Nexus 5x and hope that it will live. Other people I have heard from have the same issue, as soon as the warranty is up, it dies, so the company doesn't have to replace the phones 'under warranty' and lose money. So beware Nexus 5x users, your phone may suddenly die for no particular reason...make sure you back up all your files/photos constantly and watch for your warranty expiry...as soon as it ends your phone dies!! :(

Update: Just contacted LG in Lithuania, I asked what was changed after new motherboard replacement, if I could be calm, that the problem won't happen again, since all line of LG Nexus 5X was released with defect, explained him that thermal insulating stick is really bad solution, because it doesn't help from overheating and some people show on youtube how they peel off that thermal stick and change it to copper metal or that after device motherboard is burnt, people turn off A57 cores and use it further. Since I had doubts if the phone will work long time, not just one year (I read lots of feedbacks on gsmarena, watched videos on youtube and found out that average working time till bootloop problem happens - is little bit more than one year), so the guy from customer support just told me, that the company cannot guarantee longer than 24 months and that we should hope, that the phone will last longer, because of new updates, not sure if he just mentioned anything about new and technically fixed of bugs hardware... I also asked refund of money, since all line of this smartphone model has defect, but the guy from Customer Support said that I should forget this idea, haha, because the phone was fixed and working right now. So I'm not sure what should I do about this phone - now it's working okay and I still have left 6 months of warranty: 1) Should I sell it now? Or before the warranty will end? 2) Should I open the phone and to change thermal stick to copper heatsink now (I will lose guarantee)? Or should I wait till the expiration date of warranty and then change it (but in those 6 months motherboard will be gradually becoming damaged)? I would appreciate your opinions on what should I do with this phone, guys.

the performance is great but the battery is not good

don't waste your money. the phones die and won't recharge or boot up. lg will not back it up. and offer only to look at the phone and it takes up to 2 weeks in which time they don't provide a replacement phone and won't guarantee that they will fix it. also they won't pay for shipping.

Hey guys, my LG Nexus 5X motherboard burnt because of bootloop problem few months ago, but I still had warranty, so I got repaired it for free. But I have another question - even the motherboard was changed, do you think bootloop problem is solved by updates? Or do you think it's worth to sell this phone, before the warranty expires? Or should I install something from xda forum to improve this phone's life duration?

I am a serious fan of Nexus. I started using with Nexus 2 when it started with LG. step by step i have used all the hand sets which nexus brought to the market. Now presently am using a Nexus 5 and a Nexus 5x. Two days back my Nexus 5X shut down due to boot loop. and here local engineers already declared the cell phone as a dead one. I am very sad due to this reason.

paco2x

I recommend to disable the big cores of the phone's Cpu, the big cores are faulty (Gets very hot) and that caused the bootloop, won't matter if you change the motherboard, it will happen. There are many tutorials in XDA and YouTube about turning off the A57 cores.

LG Nexus 5x is the worst phone I have ever seen. Google integration with LG seems to be a disaster. Motherboard got damaged within a Year and this problem was faced by almost all Nexus 5x handset since the OS got upgraded to Nougat. My recommendation would be never ever go for LG Nexus series

Hello everyone, I have Nexus 5x for about one year. I had the same prob with bootloop and luckily my phone was on the warranty, so they replaced the motherboard for free. I just opened my phone and I want to ask if its necessary to update Adroid Oreo 8.0. I am a bit scared because I read that it will cause problems to the phone, the camera etc. What do you recommend to me? Thanks!

Same here, bootloop

Still had a warranty, phone was 10 month old. I got a full refund.

I have a LG Nexus 5x and recently my phone faced the same issue that many users all over the world have faced, that is the now infamous "Bootloop". It simply switched off and all my attempts to boot it, have failed. The response from LG is very disappointing. LG service centre says that to fix this issue motherboard needs to be replaced and I have to pay for it. I am not convinced to pay for an issue that LG has acknowledged is a software + hardware issue with their product. LG should repair it free of cost. After all, we are talking about a global and reputed company that is LG and they should be a bit more empathetic to their customers.

I bought the LG Nexus 5X on May 2016. I loved the phone and its performance. Was really happy on having it, only till August 2017. The phone started flashing Google n was dead. It worked while it was charged but that lasted just hours n now its a brick to eternity. Tried the LG customer care but i over-ran the warranty period it seems. Such a shame that i invested in LG. And now thats the end to the big LG. Thankyou so much for the loss of my money.

Hey Dave, who were you in contact with at Google? I have the same issue

My phone went in to the boot loop too, but I called Google and they sent me a return box for the phone and sent me a new phone immediately.

Got mine for almost two years now, december to be exact, and still got excellent performance, i use a caseology casing and the my nexus 5x is still brand new to look at, I guess that do not abuse your phone, some tweaked them and some uses software flashers which causes maybe bootloop after WARRANTY EXPIRES. Absurd.

Got the nexus 5x as my birthday present one and a half years back, today out of nowhere the phone went into bootloop, had I known the issue I would have passed it on now its just a brick

I also faced the bootloop issue on my Nexus 5x within 19 months of usage. The phone got dead and the technician says it is a hardware issue which will require motherboard change costing half of the amount I payed for my phone. So I have to just throw it away now. Bad experience with my first and last purchase of an LG phone.

I bought Nexus 5x phones last year version 7.1.1. Awesome phone with great performance. Last day I’m using Facebook APPs suddenly phone are freeze with doesn’t work and may be dead. When are phone restart display Appear in GOOGLE Logo then phone is OFF. Which is problem? How can resolve the problem.

AnonD-562334

It's ok, I upgraded first day when I got upgrade message. It lagged in start a little, but after last updates, it works really ok. Good thing if you like selfies is that you now have "flash" on selfie camera too, also turning on/off mobile data and some other options is now even more simple, settings many is completely redesigned (liked old design more), beside that, didn't notice some other differences. Btw, I see many boot loop isuess here, I bought mine in june 2016, and it still working great, but it's already one year and 4 months. I'm almost waiting for it to die, based on reviews here, because there is too many ppl complaining on it. Will be sad if that happens, because it's great phone. If it happens, I will report it here too...

Kota

Both my sister and I bought Nexus 5x phones last year. Awesome phone with great performance and got one of the best cameras even though it's 12mp. Unfortunately, both phones are dead just after 14 months of purchasing. In my opinion it's just a waste of money since you don't buy a phone worth $390 to throw it away in a year. So, if you want pure android, either invest in a Nokia phone which is more affordable or invest in a Pixel which is said to be better than Nexus. JUST DON'T BUY LG NEXUS 5X IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER PHONE IN 12 MONTHS.

Phoellix

If you want to buy an expensive brick, go for it. The bootloop thing happened to half o the several Nexus 5x phones our company bought and it's not fixable. First time in 20 years I've had to deal with such a sneaky phone company like LG and it will be the last.

Never buying an LG phone again. my phone bootlooped after 12 months because of a hardware issue. It used to be a great phone, but for its price it should last for atleast 2 years. For anyone searching for a phone you should avoid buying an LG.

In my recovery mode i dont have no command, anyone know how to resolve this problem?

Great phone until it went into bootloop (i think all opinions of this phone start like this...) Mine is under warranty and is being looked throu right now. its a shame tho. The worst part is, i work at a phone shop and our technician even said, nope. just send it to warranty or throw it out the window. So if i might get it back i'm gonna sell it as fast as possible or trade it for a ps4

Had nexus 5x ,first display went off replaced it under warranty,then came the dooms day after the update boot loop,warranty lapsed on july , lg not bothered to repair the mobile. guess i just paid a hefty sum of money to a valuable paper weight. now again google has teamed up with lg for pixel 2 xl ... may god be with the pixel 2 xl customers.

Teddy

Get rid of your replacement asap because it will die soon

Teddy

The 5x is huge backward leap in quality. I've had two, the first one became a brick just after the warranty expires. Bootlogging was the apparent flaw. Project Fi was good enough To replace the phone. My wife's 5x had the same fate and resolution. Well my replacement just died of the same symptoms except this time there is NO resolution. With a success rate of one for four I have to give this a piece of trash rating. So dissapointing

Jt

Very much disappointed and never suggest anyone to buy LG product. Worst experience. Never buy this product you will repent. Or i should say stay happy till warranty later on maintain at your own risk. My LG nexus 5x start rebooting n gone completely blank when contacted customer care they diverted to LG people who never bothered to understand thing. I wasted money buying such n expensive mobile which didnt last even 2 years n now having motherboard issue. LG people getting away saying its out of warranty. So what do i put money to ise any mobile till warranty only. I am not complaining for free of cost replacement of any broken part which cud b my fault but motherboard????? Lost trust LG and Nexus too thank god it happened at right time n i didn't purchased Pixel.

Awesome phone...until it stops working! Got mine from ProjectFi, after 11 months gyro went bad. ProjectFi "fixed it" by sending me a refurbished unit. Which stopped working 6 months later (bootloop). Since it's out of warranty, I sent him to LG for repair (along with proof of purchase, warranty receipt etc)....they want $385 to fix it! Unbelievable

I think Google should make a 2018 edition Nexus 5X, because, to me, the design of the phone looks amazing and I think they could make a lot of money from it if they make it good quality with high-ish end specs and a cheap price. I love the 5X and if I could I would buy one right now in 2017.

I was very happy to use a powered machine like this, but then one fine day recently after purchase and usage of almost an year, it stopped working....unhappy ending :-) after going through various reviews and common problems, it dawned upon me that most of the users met the same fate of machine stopped working all of a sudden, never to be alive again. thank you google....keep working on the version updates and never ask your vendors to back u :-)

It was a great phone until it unpredictably stopped working. No clue, no drops, no getting it wet -- just stopped working. I think the bootloop problem happened to it. It is disappointing since I only used it for about nine-months. I hope in the future the manufacturer test their products more. I'm now out $306 on a phone that was supposed to last me longer.

AnonD-702152

Like many, my Nexus 5x recently went into a bootload loop. It then just died and won't reboot at all. I resigned myself to waiting for the new Pixel phone to be released and try again but did contact Google (I bought it directly from them) on the half chance that it could be saved. After troubleshooting for about 5 minutes, the representative told me that they would send me a new one. I just need to send back the dead one so I don't get charged for the new one. I had this almost two years so it wasn't under any warranty. Nice job Google!

I have updated my Nexus 5x to 8.0.0(official) and updated 3 days ago. After updating phone lags and performance drops but after couple of days it's running smoothly. Before update(7.1.2) antutu score was 51k and after updating to 8.0.0 the score is 58k & Geekbench is 1190(single core) Phone looks new and performance is also good( I'm a heavy user) Today I'm using wifi and after 2 hours and 52min SOT my battery was 50% from 100% I have never found this kind of SOT from my Nexus 5x. Background app running is restricted by Android itself and it is very very effective & efficient. Although i have no problem receiving push notifications from any apps. Instant and just on time despite background restrictions. I'm so happy that FB app in not consuming any battery & ram. Peace :)

Expert-SL

It's known as "Bootloop", and it is not a firmware issue but due to a manufacturing fault in the cores in the processor. If you are under the warranty it is high time you claim it full or just give up on the phone for a better option.

khan

My nexus 5x randomly restart. its come to google logo thn restart everytime. Any ideas plz.

Has these issues of bootloop, poor/so-so battery life + various wifi/bluetooth issues been resolved with the latest Nougat 7.1.1 & 7.1.2? And are the Nexus phones (including the 6P) safe in a bit of light rain or splashes of water?

brother my phone was always updated too after years and 10 days get the problem... i hope that nothing happens to your phone... but probably all the nexus 5x will suffer of this...

Ins't it the bootloop already fixed if you update it to the last version? i'm also have this phone but its fine for me until right now (mine always updated). it is, the phone happened won't boot at all once or twice long ago but it works again after i left it while just like that and let it reboot again later no big deal because maybe it's my fault. still work until now of more than 1 year usage. i believe many people use it rough if you get hardware problem (or maybe because weather too). the phone yes have easy heated issue but mine is fine even though it heated quite often because i used it rough several times. but why so many people have negative issue with this? o_o?

Sanjana

Worst phone ever. Not worth the money at all!! Within 6 months of usage the motherboard got screwed. As it was under warranty got it serviced for free. Then within next 1 year phone is dead, motherboard is gone again. 10k for the repair. Not repairing it. Selling it as scarp. Recently repaired the screen paying 7k. All for a waste. Very much frustrated.

After one year of using the phone it become dead, I think the motherboard burnt. My friend had the same problem with Nexus 5X, after more than one year of using it also the motherboard burnt.

Overall this is a good gadget for 1 year. I owned it for 1 yr 6 mths Pros: Camera, type C usb, phone audio quality, ease of use Cons: some unexpected resets, speaker sound quality, speaker not working in 1 yr and 5 mths (push the screen and back cover around the bottom and recovers). Mainboard dead, stuck in boot loop.

decitronav

as long as you don't update this phone and don't play games you will enjoy it. i personally love the hardware, software on the nexus. the only thing i hate is that the battery life and the heating issues. my nexus lasted for 8 months and died thanks to the famous boot loop issue. i went to the place where i got it to get it fixed and heard a very shocking news. they said that there is no permanent fix and all the nexuses they sold were returned having the same boot loop issue. its simply a waste of money as a final verdict if u really love pure android go for it but, never update or stress the phone too much.

I purchased LG Nexus 5X phone almost 2 year back .All of sudden the phone stopped working and it is getting restarted. Now Service Center team asking me to pay 11000 to repair the motherboard. I came to know from service centre team itself that many customers of LG nexus 5X have faced the same problem. This is because of bad deisgn of LG nexus 5X motherboard. Even after writing to LG Management the matter is not solved. For fault in LG Nexus 5X motherboard, customers are being harassed. Should we expect some replcment with updated product ?

AnonD-690966

I had this issue. Took it back to the shop and was told that as it was within two years of purchase it was still within warranty. I had the nexus 5 before which I replaced because I dropped it, it did play up though after about 18 months of buying it from the google website. The nexus 5 was also covered by a 2 year warranty so it might be worth looking in to this before buying a new phone.

To solve bootloop, I've flash with the stock firmware manualy... Download the last firmware for "bullhead" for Nexus 5X : 7.1.2 (N2G47W, Jun 2017) In fastboost mode on the phone ( google search to know howto do this ), then connect usb to the computer. Unzip the firmware. Launch the "flash-all.bat" - (that's all). It need some apps (fastboot.exe...) can be found there: Unzip in the same folder and rerun "flash-all.bat". After the flash, the phone reboot, it's ok.

Phone signal sucks!! I have a finished basement. I have owned many phones and NEVER had any issues receiving calls or texting from my basement, but with this Nexus 5x phone, all signal is lost. My friends and family with their iPhones and others have full signal. I also have no signal in our local grocery store where I have never had any problems with other phones.

that's not an update problem that's an bootloop issue which every nexus 5x is facing right now.nexus 5x all over the world are facing this problem. the phone doesnt switch on and keeps saying google google. my nexus 5x met with the same issue a week back and i tried taking to the service centre in hyderabad and they told me that it will cost around 8k. i've written to the lg service team regarding this issue and spoke with them and they responded positively and gave some guys number called uday and he helped me overcome with the issue free of cost. they changed the board free of cost for me. im from hyderabad. i hope this will help you

i got an update notification of 7.1.2 ...and i was damn happy and excited for it. the very next day i updated it ...my phone got hangged ..it is not switching on by any means .i have tried all the steps in "thearticle" for nexus they dint work. finally went to a lg service centre and explained him everything. he said to change the mother board it costs 10k.....why such updates are given if the device cant handle it....i hate u nexus alot n alot... it is my brothers gift to me...

Thanks for your response. I don't want to try even rooting option because it is risky for me and can make the device sleep forever. I don't use the mobile data (3G,4G) at all. My device is connected to wifi all the time.Should i try some battery saving apps?

Fahad

I hate this phone, I was skeptical about the ram before buying but now after using it for a year I can't use it like normal phone. Always lagging and the memory is not enough. Battery life is worse than ever. Note I am a very very light user . I miss Nexus 5 from LG.

Leos

I am satisfied with all Nexus 5x features except camera. It is fast and convinient phone. I ha used it for 15 months already. I may have wrong piece but my indoor photos are bad and exteriors as well (too much light or too dark). Especially when I travel to places with lots of sun.

I'm using with following: Pure nexus latest, Kernel ElementalX 4.06, CPU governor HawkTail 1.2 and have awesome autonomy: ~ 1.5 - 2 days normal use: 4G, web browser, Screen On Time(mostly browser with 4G): ~ 4.5 Hours, Maybe you can try on rooted stock software (ElementalX with HawkTail 1.2) and come back with your results here

I am surprised that why people are complaining About boot loop issues. I am using Nexus 5X and its awesome device. Especially its smoothness and awesome camera. I am a power user and using Samsung A5 2017 too. Nexus Battery is not good enough. It gives me 8 hours maximum on full use while A5 battery is impressive. Its lasts more than a day with proper use. Any suggestion to make the battery life better?

I hope Google and LG will make another one. Brilliant phone, the camera, the feel, the touch, everything. Let it with the stock rom and you will have no issues.

Please stop giving negative feedbacks about this phone.I am owning a 5x for 9 months..No boot loop issues before or after 7.1.2 update..Battery life is good.Awesome camera performance..Buttery smooth stock android experience.Yes the ram is a factor but excepting that it's probably the best and the last nexus I've used till date.

After a complete discharge-charge cycle everything seems to be back to normal

nexus

After the 7.1.2 update, my nexus 5x started to have charging problems. The battery is getting warm (theoretically it's charging) but the percentage is not raising. Or, sometimes, when I plug in the charger the percentage is raising very fast (1%/2-3 seconds), settles down at ~90%, after about 1h it's completely charged. After a complete charge discharge cycle it seems to be ok, but now it takes ~30min longer for a full charge and the phone doesn't get warm at all while charning, On 7.1.1 while charging it was getting a little bit warm

dont update guys boot loop or finger print issues i got both but luckily managed to get out by flashing manually after the update of 7.1.2 to android O the fingerprint on nexus 5x stops working and the phone keeps rebooting every 10 minutes. trust me i wasted 4 hrs and got back to android 7,1,1 so be safe i manually flashed android 7.1.2 and O constant reboot and bootloop then flashed 7.1.1 everythings perfect.

Nexus5xGoingStrong

Ok so I have had my phone for about 1 year now. Great phone for the price and getting android updates every month is comforting and peace of mind. My only issues are the battery used to get me 15 hours a day...... now I am down to 12 hours.... not a big deal cause I still get through the day. Second issue is the camera freezes if the temperature is too hot or the air is too moist... dont like that... dont happen very often but it can be annoying when it happens.... But besides those two issues this is a wonderful phone.. for US$300 what I paid 1 year ago... I cannot complain... beautiful screen, fast processing, great camera, good speakers, excellent software experience (stock android is great) and goo build...(dropped this phone many times and it still works just fine), fingerprint sensor works just fine and charging via USB-C is good enough and quick... the 2GB of memory is never an issue nor the 32GB of storage (just back up your pics and vids once a month and delete from the phone.....use your google cloud its free!!!) Good Job LG...

You can enable notification led from settings...

wookie2820

Please be warned that it is not technically possible to enable call recording on Nexus 5x (apps - eg. ACR or skvalex, apps with root, custom ROM, even Xposed with installed module to enable stock call recording will not make calls to be recorded... which is a shame since it's suppose to be developer smartphone with no limits...). Cyanogenmod enables notification light which is behind lower (microphone?) grid. Very nice camera. Fast phone. With CM13 battery lasts 3-4 days (2 days @ stock)

AnonD-145833

This is unfortunately the price of Android. The OEM's make so little margins that they will not prioritise support. But consumers also don't value proper support either hence they want to pay the least money possible. Some will say there are street vendors who could have fixed your phone but you have no guarantee either.

Although most LG products are OK, their service is horrible. I sent my LG Curve in 6mo ago for repair. After months of misleading statements and outright lies, I still don't have a phone. Today I spoke with them. They are sending me a Nexus 5x. From what I can tell it is a step backwards. I will NEVER buy LG again. Not in any product or form. This kind of business practice is inexcusable.

With stock android this is a perfect phone. It feels really good and very light weight. Battery drains very fast, but think it's because the latest andriod and the sensors. sometimes It heats in the back panel between camera and the fingerprint sensor.i donno why, but it's annoying. Otherwise it has a greate camera and smooth performance.

Nexus 5x definitely. Look at chipsets bro. 5x has 808 64-bit. G3 has 32-bit only means slower. And dont be deceived by RAM unless you are going to root your phone. Camera is great, google has focused that because its their weakness before.

Have been rocking a 5x for 2 months now, so far it's great. On battery life, the screen time is middling, but the standby time is great. As long as you are not a heavy user, the battery should last.

How is battery life in Marshmallow or nougat?

TopSeacrets

U must have a good one. Then again, you've had it for a very short time. I have nothing but bad things to say in the 11months I've had TWO N5x'.

TopSeacrets

Google store online. But save yourself the aggravation and buy something else. The N5x performance is AWFUL!!!!

TopSeacrets

Do NOT buy the 5x. A friend of mine and I have it (we upgraded from the Nexus5) and this phone is TERRIBLE. MINE gave up 9months after purchase. Google sent me a new phone (I bought the N5x to have lower monthly payments). Anyways, two months later, the phone is all kinds of buggy and unresponsive about 70% of the times. It crashes often too (it restarts on its own while I'm utilizing the phone). So that's my opinion (after having TWO Nexus 5x IN UNDER A ONE YEAR PERIOD (plus my friends experience is about the same, except that his has not crapped out yet). Just buy something else.

I'm using this excellent piece of phone for last 10 days as my secondary device. Hardware per say is way ahead of iPhone 5s be it camera performance, screen quality or overall usage experience. iPhone could be your choice only basis of small screen size and iOS. Given a choice, any day I would go with Nexus 5x over iPhone 5x.if you are considering iPhone 6 or upwards, then it's a different matter and go ahead with iPhone.

About the issues you afraid of buying Nexus 5x today. After my research before I took my device, I concluded that the bootloop issue when update from Marshmallow to Nougat, was in some of the first production 2015 series. Check the serial number on the box package before you buy it, to be recent product and probably will be ok. The yellowish sense color in the screen, the lag if you used the device while it was charging, were in the first production series, too. About the Type-C port/cable, the non-removable battery and the nagging about the usb adapter for pc connection which doesn't included in the package... Really?? Nagging for these stuff??? Type-C is new tech which will replace micro-usb, so it looks future proof in my opinion. Usb adapter is not included, but too many smartphone packages from many brands don't include usb adapter, hands-free speakers set, external bluetooth device, silicon case etc. (micro-usb adapter stick included in my package by the way). Non-removable battery is used to be supported by many brands in too many devices the last years so I don't think that is something should stop you buying this device. Maybe in the next years, you won't find any device with removable battery. Hope to help and Merry Christmas!

Barry

I have Nexus 5x with 32GB, carbon/black color, 7.1.1 android version, not for too long and here are my impressions. It is plastic and the back has a glossy touch which is really nice cause it doesn't slip easily from your hand. It doesn't look and feel in your hand cheap but not too expensive. It is just fine. In standby the battery in 12 hours lost only 2% (nice). I have to charge it in the end of the day (normal+ use). Charging from 0% to 100% in less than 2 hours which is great. The available memory Ram is 1.8GB and the stock usage is 0.9GB. With 3-4 apps is 1.1-1.2GB. Think that other no-stock OS smartphones use 1.3GB with brands' preinstalled apps. So, if the memory Ram is enough depends of the user. The speakers are not too good. The sound quality is just ok.

AnonD-623359

I prefer an easily replaceable battery. A non-removable one like this is a deal breaker as far as I'm concerned. I spend too much time away from electrical outlets to even consider something that does not allow me to easily swap batteries.

AnonD-623348

AnonD-562334

Few days ago I upgraded my 5X to Android v7.1. I was happy with 7.0, and thing I like the most on v7.1 are new camera features. Now you can manualy select white balance, and also you have little slider, so you can make exposure brighter or darker before you take picture (you can use this option in video too). That's really nice from them to give us little more control over camera, which was always great on this phone. I have this phone for about 6 months now and I'm very happy with it. Best phone I ever had, I'm happy with everything it have to offer :)

AnonD-607174

The 5X is certainly no slouch. Stock battery life will get you 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours of screen on time (WiFi/Mid-brightness). The fingerprint sensor is blazing and memory management isn't bad either. It doesn't get too hot under any circumstances, but if you're using it in the winter, try to keep it in your pocket - the cold is this device's enemy. I don't use cameras often, so this is more than good enough for me (4K video? Is that even necesarry?). If you're wanting more battery, check out XDA and put a custom kernel on it. The dev base for this phone is VERY strong.

AnonD-622395

Beware before buying Google /LG NEXUS Mobile phones Spent Rs 36K on purchasing much publicised Google Nexus 5X mobile phone from Reliance Digital, Dwarka, New Delhi last year, believing quality/brand of Google. However, after upgrading OS basis alerts from Google, phone started giving trouble and got dead without giving any indication. Most surprisingly some of my other friends also faced similar issues (within 10-14 months of purchase) while upgrading the OS on their Nexus phones. After, failed in trouble shooting exercises with Google and LG team over telecon; took handset LG service centre at Sector 14, Gurgaon and got diagnosed as ‘Mother Board needs to be replaced’ which got impacted while upgrading/using the Android OS. Also user will have to bear the expenses of around 9K for the same. Though, Google/LG cannot compensate users on inconvenience caused by their hi-end imperfect phone however Google/LG should rectify such known MANUFACTURING DEFECTS free of cost for the impacted devices. Therefore, readers of this post are cautioned to please double verify such manufacturing defects in Google/LG NEXUS phones to avoid inconvenience and additional financial burden.

I get bothered when one's shared info can cause a harm to others. Though Battery life is subjective the ratio of power consumption by screen is not. I've noticed earlier I mean at Android 6 the battery consumption rate per minute of SOT at 50℅ brightness is 2.07mah on avg. Now it's 3mah. So u decide.

How many people you know says "Hey, I got a Nexus 5X in (this) January" when it was in fact 12 friggin months ago? LMFAO At least he/she could have said it was January this year or 2016. This is not an English lesson. but usually when you say (this) doesn't it mean sometime in the future? ;)

duh

The phone has been out for a year. He meant last January, not in the future. Duh

Elzaza

Its the best phone ever, very sustainable and strong and beautiful. I dont like the latest update though, they're making the icons look uglier than they fiestly were

shush_u

It's not even January yet... LMFAO.....

Hasan

Hey, I got a Nexus 5X in this January. But after using 10/12 days, camera of this phone is not working. While starting the camera app it starts to restart again and again. Now the phone is not working. While it starts it continues to boot again and again. I have discussed this matter with local LG. But they could not help me as LG didn't launch this phone in Bangladesh. Is there any solution dear??

There is unfortunately no apps or ways to find out which phone gonna face the boot loop issue. But I think as you didn't face the problem even after updating to nougat u may not face the problem in the future.

Which One Should I get the P9 lite or the nexus5x

Ballzo

I got my nexus 5x a couple of weeks ago and all I can say that its a wonderful phone. 32 Gig is more than enough for me and 2 Gig ram is also enough... I am not playing or using any heavy resource app so for me it is a good marriage :) I didn't have a single lag so far..

Nexus 5x is better

Thank you for your reply. Hope you enjoy your new phone...! Did you update it to Nougat android version? Is it still fast, lag issues? Do you know anything about the bootloop issues? For example, if only the first production have these probs?

gmp005

I have just got this phone a week ago and i am quite happy with that too. i had Redmi note 3 with 3gb of ram but nexus 5x with 2gb run much smoother and better thanks to its Stock android. so go for it bro if u don't want big screen than everything on this phone is amazing.

Hi guys, do you suggest of buying nexus 5x 32GB or another device close to this price? I want to keep the new device 2 years or more. I'm not a heavy user, but I'm wondering because is one year old, just 2gb of ram and some of them I read that have bootloop problem after the last android update. Your advice would be nice.

Propa Way

Yea I get what you mean. Did they clarify on what parts of the hardware causes it? I'm here wondering if that sort of problem would spread to more 5x's (over time) since they more or less run on the same hardware. I think I'm gonna be a bit more careful now when it comes to updates, really don't want to lose this phone to some defect of a sort because overall to me, it's a great handset.

just because your friend's phone had some kind of problem, doesn't mean that all phones cant live for more than two. I have had an iphone 4s for over 5 years now. It still work perfectly even thought it is really old. It is not that all smart phones are sensetive or something. It is about how someone uses them and takes care of them (btw,my iphone 4s is glass from the front and back).

Don't by this model I prefer Nexus 6p . Because this model have only 2gb ram but 6p have 3gb which save your life. Becaus Nexus5x has heating issues in normal use.

Is there nexus 5x owners who successfully updated to Nougat and does not have boot-loop issue or random reboots. I know it's affecting small number of phones but when i read about it it's all about those who have this issue and nothing about those lucky people who doesn't. I just wanna buy this phone and i don't know is it worth it or not. If i will do i update to Nougat or keep marshmallow.

AnonD-565078

LOL!! :D There is no any chance that Moto G4 Plus can be better than Nexus 5X. The camera on Nexus 5X is much better than one on the G4 Plus. Nexus 5X has the same sensor as Nexus 6P (Sony IMX377), and they are one of the best camera phones on the market at the moment. Nexus 5X can record the video in 4K resolution, also it has HDR+ which is great feature, because it really makes images look better (especially in low light conditions). Also, Nexus 5X has faster SoC. Overall, Nexus 5X is a clear winner in this case, Moto G4 (Plus) is a good phone, but 5X is a little better. ;)

Only google pixels are better than this one

This phone has the bootloop issue since Nougat and reverting to Marshmallow doesn't solve it. Google has said it's a hardware issue and will not replace it if out of warranty even for a couple of days. Very disappointed with this phone.

I'm quite happy with the phone. Cameras great,fine screen and fast processor. Multitasking is no big deal for the phone and the fact that it has stock Android makes it even better. The battery lacks though... It's just not enough for a full day... I do recommend this phone if you want a good, mid range phone that does more that you want.

S6 is way better in terms of performance. Nexus tx will get updates quicker though :)

@Miki - I would go for the Nexus - better (quicker) security updates, and pure fast android without bloatware. The 5x let's you change the battery relatively easy if you want to keep it more than approx. 2 years

Yes.. They are just telling that in a way so that it seems the feature is pixel only. Actually, both Nexus 5x and 6p has unlimited free high quality photo storage and the photos saved on storage must be within 18 megapixel. As both 6p and 5x has 12.3 megapixel so it is unlimited for them.. now for video only 1080p videos can be saved on unlimited storage not 4k. But what more u r getting in Pixel phones is u can store ur 4k videos there in the unlimited storage ...

Planned Obsolescence I only deal with sub-$100 phones these days. Anyone paying more than $500 for flagships must love throwing away their money for something that becomes the IT device for no longer than six months.

Friends! do not waste your money for smart phones. All of them have 1-2 year life,after that these become problematic and then you are forced to buy some other mobile.When ever I go through the reviews of different mobiles I see that no mobile is perfect.About 2 months back my friend bought a new Huawei Nexus 6P but within one month its display got black.He sent the mobile to the service center.The display fault was corrected by replacing LCD screen but all the sensors stopped functioning.He had to send his mobile to the service center again.what is the benefit of spending money and buying problems.I would suggest that people should switch over to feature phones like great NOKIA 3310 and enjoy life.This will also force the mobile manufacturing companies to produce good quality feature phones like in the past.

AnonD-593079

Yes, There are cons as well but with this price and such great specifications we can overlook it. It has only 1080p display which obviously is not great but not worst and thus the battery provided will last for 24hrs as display is efficient AMOLED. You can check this in many reviews as well. As display is not high battery will last enough.

AnonD-389018

It's for nearly 27K PKR (17K INR), I am considering it but afraid of low capacity battery..

AnonD-593079

Which censor and hardware you think Nexus dont have? 5x is one of the finest phone under 25k. Oneplus 3 is not worth of its price? Are you serious? Please check the specifications once again. Specifications are way more than enough let me know what else is equally important . Performance wise One plus 3 is currently within top 5 for every benchmarks.

Of these 5x is better but not the best coz it has only 2 GB of RAM and also the SP 808 is well enough but generates more heat..also don't forget that if u play game with Nexus 5x ur battery life would be a trash

You can go for Oneplus 3 (6 GB ram) for the price of 28k or for a bit low budget You can wait for Mi 5s(4 GB ram) to launch. You can also checkout Mi Note3 (3 GB ram) at 10k or LeEco phones.

Best: great camera, great fingerprint sensor, clean android, fast upgrades. Biggest problems: No screen mirroring (they want that client buy a cast pen), the function it´s blocked on purpose by manufacturer! You can't control the disappearing of soft keys / menu buttons when you want full screen, like on tv or video apps. The sound it´s very poor, sounds like a basic smartphone, the speaker should be three times better.

LG g3/g4/g5 even V10 has same issue. If it is a software problem then none of this would have happened with other LG models.

Nexus5x. Its big and inconvenient to carry around. Battery backup is not good. Performance is not as good as Nexus5 Suggestion to Google. Make a Nexus phone 4" screen need not to be HD, fingerprint possibly in the front side. USBC, battery backup should be good. WiFi N is fine. Single sim or optional dual sim. Built in storage 64GB.

So far it was good quality. I'm using several headphones like sennheiser and beats, and so far the quality is good, better than my old HTC One and LG G3. My only complaint is the loudness which is quite abysmal but I guess its good for your ears lifetime

Does anyone seeing the yellowish flash light? shouldn't it be white? searched on the internet. not much about the yellow flash light. is it natural?

It has been 5 days since upgraded to Nougat. Battery performance is quite stable and contrary to other comments, my N5X has been able to withstand normal usage until evening without recharging at mid-day. Under less usage, my N5X able to maintain good discharge of battery at max 40% around 7pm. My normal daily usage will be internet, FB, instagram, emails, occasionally little game like freecell. I don't play heavy usage games, maybe that's why battery consumption is good on my phone.

I too am interested in this answer. LOVED both my 4 and 5, but the audio jack output was dismal on both of them. REALLY hoping they fixed this problem so I can get reasonable volume out of it!

Hey Max, ive already told in this forum that battery life has reduced and now u also noticed that..nothing improves the battery life unless they fix this via soft update. Standby consumption is less but Screen's battery consumption is now worse. Previously 1min took 2.07 mAh where as it takes 3mAh right now.im disappointed

AnonD-582593

You can install some battery saver apps to prolong the battery life. I am using JOOX, Whatapps, Fb, S Health, Camera at the same times, from my experience, my phone's battery can last about 6-7 hours accord to my "heavy" usage, I am users of android 7.0 Nougat and I don't think the battery drain very fast, it depends on how you use it, battery drain fast is common problems for all models of phone, you probably can find similar complaints on others brand phone. You don't need to downgrade to android v6.0 actually, new android always better than the old ones in my humble opinion. At last, LG Nexus 5x is an epic phone, you cannot deny that, as there are so many good reviews on Youtube, Sites and bloggers recommend to this "budgeted phone". For those who intend to purchase, just go ahead, I would suggest go for 32GB model as there is no any micro slim slot if you like to store a lot of pictures and videos etc,

Geronimo

Its all because of your thick accent I suppose Mr Arun 😂😂

AnonD-445928

The deal behind these types of phones are simple. If your tired of paying for a leased phone through the carriers (AT&T Sprint Verizon etc...). Then these phone have good enough specs and hit a price point that is affordable without breaking the bank. Example- The Galaxy Note 7 cost around $900 on contract through AT&T. Pay $35 a month for 20 months and keep the phone or pay that for 12 months and return it, barring there is nothing wrong with it, to upgrade to the next new thing. I personally would rather buy a phone outright than have a carrier dictate when I have to upgrade. No this phone isn't the best of the best but it will surely handle what most users need plus you get the newest software before anyone else. I bought (on contract) an LG v10 that I've had for 10 months only for it to Boot Loop death on me. Leaving me with the options of going phoneless for 2-3 weeks while LG fixes it or go ahead pay off the contract and buy a phone that has close to the same or better specs in some aspects off contract.

Tks! Can you monitor it and tell me tomorrow also, I'm planing to buy this. That's Why

AnonD-116377

Ok, LG Malaysia do not sell N5X officially here. You can get from online seller such as Lazada or 11th Street. They are quite reliable as I have purchased few phones from them in the past. So far so good. The only question mark is the warranty. Some sellers do not provide any warranty, some provide 1 month. Few provide 1 year, if the unit from official channel.

AnonD-116377

Already updated to Nougat this morning. To your question, my answer will be IMHO, yes, the it looked like battery consumption a bit lower as normally by 12pm, i will get around 40-50%. With normal usage, at 12pm today battery still up at 70%. But this is only first day. Will monitor it again tomorrow again.

ZH

Both are good that is why u r confused.. Let me streamline it for you. If you like quick updates and security patches, great camera then Nexus. If you like a premium phone with good camera, and flagship grade specs then OP3..I think OP3 would be good if budget is not a problem

I updated to Android 7.0 a week it got anounced, I signed into the beta program and got the public release version, after downloading and installing, I signed out of the beta program without reverting to android M. In my opinion, I can't be happier about this update, the battery feels to last longer than it did before, I can leave it overnight with a 54% charge and 5 hours later it's at 52%, yesterday I went full charge from the morning until 24% at 7pm, I was using snapchat, instagram, whatsapp, facebook throuhgout the day. Now I barely charge the phone twice a day. The only issue I've seen in the phone is when someone sends me a video in whatsapp, it downloads the video, but doesn't play it even when I touch it, I have to leave the chat and re-enter to play the video. Other than that, it's a great update. Make sure to perform a reset right after Android N is installed on your phone, somehow it put the remaining files to work correctly.

After upgrading to Android 7 there seems to be a battery draining problem

AnonD-562334

2 days ago I recieved nortification - system update to Android Nougat (I'm in Bosna and Herzegovina). Update size was 1171.5 mb, so I waited 15 minutes to download it over wifi. Install proces was quick. To be short, I must say I like this system. Battery is much better now. Today I used phone all day, with wifi on, now it's 2 am in the morning and battery is still at 69%. With old sistem, I would have about 40% battery at this time, so maybe I will charge it now every 2 days, we will see. Second thing, there are lot of animations in Nougat and some are slow so phone looks little laggy because of it. But I entered developer mode and turned off animations, now it looks incredible fast. I was hoping that we will get video stabilization with Nougat in 5x, but camera is same as before. I know you can get it if you root phone, but I don't do that.

I am from Malaysia.Just purchase this "flagship" phone 2 days ago, the performance and the camera is extremely good, I really like the 4k video ultra shooting it's very clear and nice. Personally, if you are thinking either 5x or 6p I will recommend going for 5x if you like smaller size inch phone because both phones have similar features this 5,2 inch is very comfortable to hold in one hand for typing and put inside the pocket. And I just recently update to v7.0 Nougat so I cannot tell the performance of battery as I just use v6.0 for 2 days. The update is not automatically coming to your phone, you need to enrol yourself in the android beta program before go to the system update.

AnonD-478042

This phone strikes an overall balance - the screen, the build, the performance, the battery and the price. Not a perfect phone, but definitely above average. Thought of getting 6P at first, but after numerous research, I end up with 5X. Not a single regret ever since. One major deterrence from me getting the 6P is the almost-similar battery life with 5X, but double the price. As an accountant and a student, I'm pretty cost-conscious and always looking for a phone that I can fully customize to my needs, for better efficiency and productivity. It can be a little bit sluggish sometimes, but it might due to the fact I'm using a power saving CPU governor (yes mine rooted with custom ROM and kernel). I always charge my phone when I'm getting a shower and when I'm driving a car, so battery rarely fall below 50℅ charge throughout the day. The not-so-black LCD screen is very apparent during boot up, but unnoticeable during usage. Together with usb type-c, it is definitely an all-rounder mid-range smartphone.

AnonD-575528

Oh forgot to add, I had heating issues as well. But I think this is common? Did not see that you posted 14 hours ago. I thought this dead phone was because of some bugs since mine got a lot of notifications sue to a sim change and I figured it over flowed the buffer and some how corrupted the boot loader as it does not even vibrate to turn on or charge. But since you were not having similar issues there before it died I think the problem is somewhere else. Kind of hard to figure out since it dies on the table sitting there and can not revive it. Dread having to pay half the cost of the phone to get the main board replaced because of their own bugs. Great phone and camera and such but to die in less than an year? And then to run around the warranty service which they will if they dont want to do it. Too bad this was not bought at google stores which I hear has much better service but then what about out of warranty service?

Anonymous

Same thinh happened to me, but I had changed sims the night before and it started showing a lot of carrier notifications so turned off sound and placed it on the table. Next morning looked to see a bunch of notifications and then went about my business, after finishing morning coffee went to look at the phone and it was blank and dead. tried all the tricks but nothing, had USB debugging turned off so nothing shows up there when connected to a PC either.. The phone is taking some standby power from the meter reading when connected to USB port but not like it is powered on or even standby modes. It is totally dead. I am sure the service center would say water damage even though this phone rarely leaves the house and never in the rain and it mostly just left at home on the desk. Since it rains all the time here, they assume people were taking it with them and it is an easy excuse to not provide warranty service. Replacing the N5 main board costs rs9000 so this would be higher.. But with such ethics I am not sure they wont replace other good parts in the phone with stuff they scavenged like an old battery someone else had replaced so expect major problems to develop after service. Had very bad experiences many times with LG. But others are not much better. Really need to change things.

Starting few days i felt very happy as the phone is funtioning properly.and a great time with the most amazing camera and its features. But started facing the problem of heating. Thought it will not be lasted longer. that day .. the day which is last day of my phone. don't know what happened, suddenly the screen became blank. but the phone is funtioning. don't know how to make it work fine. tried to switch off.. that is the last function of that phone. it never turned on again. the service center said it is because of water log problem and it will not come under warranty.. don't know where to go and how to fix. donno how it became water log problem as i never used the phone in rain nor it drowned in any pool. Said to replace the whole PCB ..!! waiting to decide to what to do next. heating issues battery problems screen dim and becoming dark too many issues not a recommended phone.

Which is better, LG Nexus 5x or Xiaomi Redmi Note 3?

AnonD-575041

Great phone, no problems so far. The battery life solely depends on the user itself. I charge it everyday. As for playing pokemon go, it drains the battery fast, considering you're using the GPS, data and the app itself all at the same time. It takes about 1-2 hours to get the battery low at full charge. When i'm merely using Facebook and YouTube, it's longer. The camera quality is not good when you're at a dark place. Better when you're at a well-lit surrounding, as well as during day time.

If you looking for overall balance goodness and to future proof (type-c), definitely Nexus 5X. The only area P9 Lite have over Nexus 5X is battery life, so if you looks for battery life alone then P9 Lite.

I actually don't use FB so can't say about the first hand experience.but as being a texting guy like u I can assure u that if u want to use the phone for 20hours u will definitely get nearly 4 hours of Screen on Time or even more.and u can charge the phone to 100℅ in 90mins

Which one is better htc one a9 or nexus 5x pls say me

Thanks bro. what would be the battery backup if i use bbm , messenger fb etc on wifi or 4g ? any guess? because i am more into texting then playing games

Don't hesitate too much go for whichever u want. Personally I think Nexus 5x is best in terms of every aspect.whether it is software security camera performance everything.. But if u really like Samsung then go for that.but I don't like glass phones any more coz I have a s7 edge which glass is shattered and in my country they are charging $350 for it.so Jo more glass phones from now on.

I charge phone every day, but when I go to bed after one day of use battery is at about 40%. I can squeze 2 days from it if I'm careful, I will call myself normal user...

Hi there, I'm using this device for 2months and I have never had touch sensitivity issue while charging. Talking about heating problem, it gets warm but u can't say it's hot.i don't play games but I do a lot of these things I.e. YouTube,browsing,whatsapp,using different apps.the only time I saw it gets warm while taking pics/videos for more than 5 mins.but that does not feels too warm..also I wanted to share another thing about battery life.in the first 20days I was getting 3hrs SOT with 20hrs usage and now I'm getting 3.5-4hrs SOT with 24hrs to 30hrs usage..that's a great jump in battery performance.

AnonD-569938

are you facing touch sensitivity issues ,using the cell while charging?

AnonD-290495

The galaxy line no longer has a memory card and I'm seeing more and more devices that don't, for whatever reason everyone wants thinner devices (which is dumb because it makes them more vulnerable to flexing caused by putting it in a pocket etc.). I also prefer a memory card but the phone supports OTG which means you can plug a USB-C stick/pen drive into it and offload your memory contents. I don't tend to make a lot of videos unless they're very short a few seconds maybe a minute not much more so I don't really care about lag from cloud storage and 32K internal would hold quite a lot of video if you don't have tons of crap loaded on the phone. I've been looking around to see if anyone is making an extended battery for the 5X, haven't found one yet. While the battery is not intended to be easily user replaceable there is a youtube video on how to do it and it doesn't look bad, the newer 6 phone looks like a giant pain in the a** to change because it's glued in there and there are more bits to remove. Five hundred bucks isn't in my budge t right now and have you seen the size of that monster? No tiny pawed lady is going to be comfortably able to hold a 6 up to the ear for a conversation, I think the newer big phones assume that everyone is going to bluetooth these days. I have a couple of bluetooth but sometimes I have to go back to the handset because I just can't hear the caller on the other side because they mumble, slur their words or there's just too much noise in the background. I have a tablet with only 2 gig RAM and it does fine, my older smart phone also has only 2 gig ram and it still runs fine with what I use it for. If I want to play games I'll buy a 10" tablet with an octacore cpu and 4 gig RAM I play a few games on the phone but anything with tons of graphics and small buttons goes on the tablet.

Should I buy the Nexus 5X or the Motorola Moto G4?

Anonymous

Hows the battery life

Anonymously

N5X man! I almost buy the Moto g4 plus but I made a comparison. First is the camera. Though moto g4+ has 16mp.. 5X cam is still way way better *search photos on Instagram*. 2nd the SOC.. Moto has 2015 midrange soc SD617 32gb 4gb ram while 5x has 2015 highend soc SD808 2gb RAM. Always remember that it's not about the RAM but the system on chip *SOC* that really matters when it comes to day to day performance. Therefore 5x wins here. I just purchased mine through amazon. N5X 32gb worth $280. Compare that to moto g4+ $250-$300

Guest

Heh, i'm deciding between those 2 as well! I think the Moto is great for the price so I'd say you gotta go with that one, for the price. Not sure about the camera on the Moto, but the 5x takes nice pictures, 4k is not so great on it, don't think video in general is too good. It's really up to how much you wanna spend, and it's kind of hard to decide between these 2 (my opinion).

Anonymous

Guys please suggest me between Nexus 5x and Moto G4 Plus. My budget is around 15000. My primary need is Camera. Other need is moderate gaming and net surfing. That's it. I want real time performance not specifications. Also Update is not necessary thing for me. So guys please suggest me between these two. Any other suggestions are welcome but Camera must be best within the budget. Thanks

No. It's made out of plastic and the speakers honestly suck. Even the speaker on my moto g 3rd generation is better than this one. I still like the phone regardless though and ordered a skin for it.

My Nexus 5x seems to drop battery most when taking pictures or using wifi. In standby it's very good. My strategy is to have the phone in airplane mode for 50 mins every hour whilst at work. This seems to get me 2 days battery life. Another thing I noticed is if it does get hot (watching YouTube for 40 mins), it's near the finger print reader. It seem to cool down quickly once exiting the app.

It depends on how many resources that specific website needs, the battery life strictly depends on the user's usage. I, for instance, mostly use it for gaming/social network/chat during the day, at night, Is when the phone rests and It keep its charge for the next morning

This was in flight mode/offline mode and default settings. To me it's good (I've not applied any updates to the phone 6.0.1 etc) but I haven't had an Android phone in so long so I was asking just to have a rough idea what to make of it. One thing I did notice was from 91% to 87% was a lot quicker, this was by web browsing and taking pictures 12 shots. But overall it's been good. It's already encrypted, now just looking into MM settings further.

from 10am at 94% to 10pm at 91%, 12 hours have passed, -0.25% of battery drain per hour. And you still ask this is good? I hope you're joking or trolling

The other issue is that no matter how many GB of ram - this adds to battery drain. That's why iPhone can get away with smaller batteries and still last longer. Android needs a rethink from the ground up. Lot of landfill out there...

The phone is VFM. Amazing Camera, no lags, very nice display, and with the below battery tricks after the latest update is super. 1) Disable NFC, Cloud Print, Location Services. Enable Developer Options > Use cooler display colors. You will see battery improvements for sure. I also disable 4G and i am using 3G only because here we do not have everywhere 4G so the phone is looking the network and this reduce the battery life.

AnonD-8044

It is also to do with speed because internal flash memory is loads faster than even class 10 memory card so best if Nexus has big memory next time. Also if folk decide to plonk a big game on the memory card latency happens and causes glitches in game. Often not all of the app is moved to external memory card so if you remove memory card apps can misbehave. This why Nexus use one big block of fast memory like iphone to solve speed/corruption and security issues problems. The drawback is device is more expensive. Cannot wait for next Nexi which should be due to be announced in 6 weeks or thereabouts.

Its is not much help but you say last 2-3 years and in that time even the O/S will use more RAM so by then 3GB RAM could be basic requirement. Just 3 years ago smartphones were just working on 512MB RAM now minimum 2GB.

Which one should i pick - Nexus 5x or Alcatel Idol 4? I don't have any specific requirements, though i like listening to music mainly through headphones. I mostly seek a good performance that could last me 2-3 years. I heard about the lags in Nexus 5x and seeing that Idol 4 comes with 3 GB i am thinking of getting it (also the promise of good music quality is very tempting too), but there is overheating issue that Snapdragon 617 processor has (or at least i heard of that) and no Gorilla Glass on Idol 4 (?) (I am not sure about that).... Other similar phones in this price range like Moto G4 Plus or Huawei P9 lite come with 2 GB of RAM in my country. So what could be the best choice for me?

Hi BokiVTS, I didn't know the hint of pressing the volume-down button to take a picture, nice! thank you for that info. We all would like to have an sd card slot in this phone, but somehow Google want us to use their cloud services even if we don't. But that's not a problem, you can download 'airdroid' to your phone and easily transfer pictures, music, videos or files from/to your PC, you only need an internet connection/WiFi. Regards,

Does it have Video Stabilization or something like Avoiding the Shaky videos?

AnonD-562334

I have Nexus 5x for almost two months. I'm very happy with it, it's fast and simple. I bought it because of camera (photos) and it's really good. There are no any manual controls on camera, all is automatic, but photos are really good, even in bad lighting. Phone have "only" 2GB of ram, but I didn't saw any problem with that, even when I load websites with ton of images, all is great. One of things this phone really need is some stabilization for video, optical or software. I like option of fast starting camera by pressing two times power button, and you can also shoot with volume down-up buttons, what is really practical when you drive bicycle or something like that and have just one hand "free" for phone. There are 3 modes for shooting, no HDR, HDR and HDR+. I don't know what is difference between HDR and HDR+, didn't see any diference in photos. But between no HDR and any HDR mode in lowlight photos, there are big difference. HDR photos have less noise and quality is better, but problem for me in this mode is that colors are too vibrant, and they have too much yellow tint. What I would like for sucessor, little smaller size of phone, maybe 4.8-5" screen, video stabilization any maybe slot for microSD card. Like this I need to transfer photos and videos every month or so to PC and to delete it from phohe, to have space for new one (I have 16GB version).

I bought IPhone 6s last year after it was released. Before that I used Nexus 4 for more than two years. I didn't wanted to buy iPhone but my Nexus 4 was broken so I had to. I just gave a try to iPhone so that I could evaluate it as I used to hear a lot about iPhone being called best phone. After my use of iPhone 6s for 8 months, I just got fed up with that because I realized and experienced myself that it's just a hype. You pay a lot and get nothing but an apple which already has a bite ;-). So I sold that iPhone 6s and bought Google Nexus 5X two months ago. According to my experience Google's Nexus phones are best and no one would regret buying it as I did that of iPhone 6s. Google Nexus phones are best smartphones.

Hi Anonymous, I use the original charger that came in the box to charge it in the office and my home, and for my car I purchased the Aukey CC-T6 36W 2 Port USB Car Charger, it supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, you can look it up on Amazon it cost me $9.90, also you need to buy a Type-A to Type-C cable, so I purchased an Anker PowerLine USB-C to USB 2.0 also on Amazon ($8.99). With this car charger you can charge 2 phones at the same time, but when you do that, you won't get fast charging, when there is only 1 phone charging, then you'll get fast charging. Either way, it's great to charge two devices at once. Regards,

yes it support

AnonD-529224

Look unless you want to have the latest hardware or phone, the Nexus line stays updated at least for two years so yes along with N an O update will be supported by both 6P and 5X and since software support on low end hardware is possible so even P in 2018 would be possible but app support is another story that depends on hardware.

You're welcome! I wanted buy a new phone and I've searched almost every detail to limit the options. Gorilla glass was the reason I eliminated p9 lite. Nexus 5x is the best at its price tag, but in my country black color is less available->more expensive than white. (ps.finally got Htc m9 for 50€ more than nexus 5x)

Legolas

Hi AS1, Good to know you're becoming one of the big family of nexus owners, you won't regret purchasing a great phone! Yeah, I did forgot to mention that part, thank to Anonymous fellow who pointed that out. About the call drops, up to this day I haven't had any call drops in my carrier's network. Actually I was in Movistar but they couldn't handle LTE in my phone, so I moved to Cable&Wireless and I'm more than happy with LTE and good coverage. I almost forgot... Even though your carrier say they support LTE (whichever band they use), double check the bands they use, and confirm if their LTE network support the N5X. As I told before, I was in Movistar before owning the N5X, Movistar's band is 28 (700), once I got the phone, it didn't connect to LTE, so I switched to Cable&Wireless (who offered LTE as well, at the same band 28 (700)), and the phone DID connect to LTE. You can purchase a prepaid sim of each carrier of your country and check which connect to LTE on this phone. Regards,

AS1

Hi Legolas, Thank you for your extensive reply. I think i'll go for the nexus! I dont use my phone very often, only for whats'app, calling, some e-mails and sometimes i make sport photos. Maybe if i've a new phone i will also try pokemon-go :P but it won't be like gaming 24/7. The Huawei has 300mAh battery more than the nexus but i think that won't make a very big difference (3000mAh - 2700mAh). Because a iphone for example has 1500mAh. The gorilla glass is also a plus. I didn't notice the wide network bands, thank for this. I actually red that when you're calling the line drops sometimes. But i guess you don't have this problem? Many thanks!

AS1

Thanks, almost forget this point. I think i'll go for the nexus, if i put my phone in my backpack when im training its nice to get my phone without scratches out of it :D

Also, I have read that p9 lite screen is simple glass (while nexus 5x has corning gorilla glass 3) so you will have to be more careful with it.

Legolas

Hi AS1 The Nexus 5x covers more network bands than any other phone I've ever seen or owned, both have almost the same specs, except for the sd-card slot of the P9, if you prefer having expandale storage, then this is your pick. Another alternative other than the P9 lite & N5X would be the Samsung A5 (2016), it has almost the same features of the other 2 but has Lollipop in it. I've been using the N5X since March, so far I'm loving the battery life of this device, it usually last more than a day when not in use, and almost half day in use (facebook, whatsapp, snapchat, instagram, some games, web browsing), it charges super fast when connected to a fast charger. My first tip to you is to know for what are you going to use the phone: eg. Media consumer (youtube, netflix, music, and other streaming service), gamer, photography, office/work, all-around (a little of all). Once you choose a way of usage, you can then go for the specs (screen, OS, memory, chipset, storage, network compatibility, etc.) this step depends heavily on taste and likings, and last go for the price.

Wait for the next Nexus or if you can't wait, get the Moto G4 Plus at a similar price as it's new, too, and runs stock Android as well.

Do NOT think about Huawei. Choose between Z5 compact and Nexus 5x. I do not own either of them. But I own Nexus 5. I have owned it for past 2 years and actually got bored of using it BUT it never disappointed me, so I never ended up actually changing it. Meanwhile I had chance of using Galaxy s6 and IPhone 6s plus. IPhone was a good phone but too large for me. As far as Galaxy is concerned, it was a huge disappointment. So sold it within 10 days and I was back to my Nexus. It may not offer superb battery or iPhone camera performance, but its guaranteed you would never regret buying a Nexus.

Hello Legolas, I have also the same question. I did some research to those phones but i find it hard to choose. I think the P9 Lite: - Better batery - Dual Sim The nexus 5x: - Google maps etc - Fast upgrades - Cost less Also found the sony xperia z5 compact - Best camera of those 3 but is pretty old so they won't support this phone very long i guess. When i read reviews i see that the nexus scores higher than the p9 lite but has batery problems. Do you have some tips? Or a better alternative. I come from iphone so i don't know much about android phones. So if you could give some tips that would be great!

Hardly worth 300 mate. Prices will go down soon. Just wait for the next Nexus.

Since this was released in 2015 and a new model is lurking around the corner, and the fact that it costs 300 eur where I live... Should I still buy this one? I know this is going to get N, but what about the next version that comes in October 2018? In terms of support, specs and everything, is this still worth my 300 euros?

Elvis

I will go with 5X, I just saw it on ebay for $230 brand new

Legolas

I don't mean to be rude, but I recommend you to research both phones first before demanding someone else to do your homework... I can only give you tips on the criteria you should consider before buying a phone, for example, the usage you're meant to use on the phone, memory capacity, battery and such. Regards

Do a factory reset, if still slow take it back, phone should be smooth and fast.

While making calls from Nexus5x my screen goes black/off and I am unable to disconnect the call or access dial pad. This is so annoying. I also tried settings -> accessibility -> power button to end call. But still I don't get back the display until the call is disconnected. Please let me know if anyone knows how to fix this problem.

I bought new Nexus 5x, a week ago. I am facing issues with browsing, downloading and playing videos on this brand new phone. Its extremely slow. I am not sure if there is some specific data settings that I am missing or it's a faulty device. Its so slow that it took me hours in downloading and installing a game from playstore. Initially I thought my WiFi is slow but when I checked it on some other phone the speed was fine, so the issue is with Nexus 5x. Can anyone or someone from Nexus guide me on this?

The Nokia 3310 might be the perfect phone for you.

Nexus 5X better (http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=7­556&idPhone2=5705) than Nexus 5. It can't be worse, it is a newer Google phone to replace Nexus 5. I do not recommend to buy 5X if 5 works well for you because there aren't very big gains. If you can get 5X cheaply or for free, then go ahead to get one.

Anonymous

What I love to this phone is the speed of data when browsing and downloading. Incomparable to the ones with 150/50 Mbps speed , this handset has cat 6 300/50mbps that you really feel the speed of data like you are connected to the WiFi. This is the one that I consider when purchasing this handset. It actually more than the basic phone. My nexus 5x is now has the Developer preview for android N and I enjoying it now. Its a total experience for android N developers preview.

What kind of instructions are you expexting to come with this phone? Like a giant manual explainig how to senda a text message, how to set contact pictures exc.? I haven seen any phone comming with any instructions other than the standart ones which tell you how to insert the sim and turn the device on. If you don't know how to do something just google it.

I can play nova 3 without lag on my 2013 nexus 5... Big deal lol

AnonD-290712

I wouldn't recommend anyone to go for this phone as this year's nexus 5 gets the full upgrade. A flagship chipset Snapdragon 820/821 or 823 either way it's gonna totally obliterate the 808 which was never flagship grade.. It was an afterthought to the overheating 810. Even the nexus 6 outperforms this in the graphics department.

sunny

pls go for nexus 5x, because 5x has got 64bit processor and processing speed is faster and current OS and processors arw arround 64.but nexus 6 is 32bit only. the phone having 2GB ram should fair enough to perform well

I got a Nexus 5X a few months ago and wish I hadn't. It did not come with any instructions, I have had to corral my kids and grandkids when they come to ask them how to do things with it. Some of the things they can't even figure out. e.g. I try to text a picture from the gallery and it won't send. That's a big issue with me. Also, the choices of sounds to signify an incoming text leave a lot to be desired. They are pretty bad. On my old Samsung I had a whistle, which I liked a lot. The least offensive one I could find in these options was a door locking. Anyway, I have invested the money in it, regrettably, and if I can't sell it somewhere, I will live with it for another year or so and get something else. I hope Nexus reads these reviews and attempts to remedy some of the complaints.

better go for nexus6 which has high compatible specs than nexus5x. Nexus 6 can hold smooth performance for the software update for more than 2+ years by 820 chip-set than 820.

I have a new nexus 5x. Ive been using it only 2 months. Battery started draining so fast. Cant use it more than 6 to 7 hours even after charged fully. And get heated up sometimes too. Please help

No SD card slot. No external battery. Doesn't really matter how fast the chipset is if it doesn't even come with the standard features. If I want to be locked in like the iPhone I would have gotten a iPhone.

Nexus 5X is usually from 280-340 €, not sure about the US market.

Anonymous

They have Same chipset. Nexus 5X will get longer updates and doesn't have a UX on it. And because an Android gets faster with every Version (Compared to iOS which gets slower) it will be Faster. But I would personally pick The G4 because every Other things like Camera, Battery, Build quality, bezels etc. are better on it.

hey pol i guess i just had the issue with my seller. hope you won't experience what i had experienced. but all in all, the phone is great and i haven't regretted changin to android. i've enjoyed the unit, especially the fingerprint scanner. i already learned how to save more battery life by disabling unnecessary apps and features.

AnonD-550948

i already bought the device and though i have not much noticed anything weird aside from the fact that i won't be allowed to update my OS, everything seems to run smoothly. so, i don't regret buying it in the first place. thanks for your answer btw

AnonD-550948

i think we don't have the same shop. but despite that fact, i still feel relieved knowing someone from the ph had the same situation. the shop gave a 3-day replacement period which has already expired. I just wonder why they won't allow us to do the update. i thought it would be like "jailbreaking" the iphone where updates are restricted. but i was thinking that maybe that can't happen on android. so, you're saying that updating won't do harm on my device, right? i'm a little hesitant since i just bought the phone and i'm trying my best to use it properly, but i'll consider the update maybe after a month or so just in case. thanks btw :)

Vojikik

So you should not buy that if the seller tells you that. They are maybe correct or not but you cannot even tell if the seller are right or wrong until you update your OS then see for your eyes.

AnonD-550948

oh okay. i'm just scared that something might happen if i start to update this. thanks by the way :)

AnonD-546197

I'm in doubt between nexus 5x 32gb (280€) and p9 lite 3Gb ram (215€).... Which smartphone should I buy? Thanks.

Legolas

Just because of storage capacity, with 16GB you get like 10GB free to use, with 32GB you get like 24GB free to use. If you don't care about little storage capacity, then opt for the 16GB one.

Legolas

They are lying to you, actually updating the phone improves its performance.

AnonD-551477

why 32 gb not 16???

Ahmed

why 32 gb not 16?

AnonD-550948

That would be another problem. the seller strictly advised not to update the OS 'cause they said it can damage the unit. i really don't know why. considering this is a nexus phone.

I'm from the Philippines too and I am sure that we bought from the same store, starts with the letter H, right? According to them, they had an "issue" that a yellow tint of the screen got worse after an update, they blamed the update for that. How did I know? I bought a Nexus 5x a month ago and noticed it had a yellowish screen. I updated the software to the latest version and tried if it would solve the issue and it did. The "Cool Color Temparature" from the developer tools solved the yellow tint. However, I decided to request for a replacement 'cause I taught that it would bother me, knowing I had an abnormal screen. They next day, I came back to their store for a replacement. I said it had a yellowish screen and I compared it to my previous phone as a basis. They told me that I should not compare it since they were different phones. Then they asked if I updated it, to which I said yes, they told me that they would not be able to replace it since I updated it. I told them that it was a hardware issue and software is out of the picture here. I knew that they felt that I would not bulge. They opened another box of a 5x, once it booted, I showed them the difference of the screens. They replaced the phone but not the box and accessories. They just swapped the IMEI stickers. I got a new unit without the yellowish screen. :) If your on the replacement period, I suggest that you do not update, for them not to have leverage. I believe that on the issued receipt, that a software update voids the replacement period. In my case, it was overidden but we are not sure if they would be the case everytime. If you're beyond the replacement period, I recommend you to update. Don't listen to them. One of the main reasons that we got a Nexus phone is for timely and quick updates.

Legolas

Try updating the OS version in the phone, it's well known that this phone before Marshmallow v6.01 was bad. Once it's updated, you'll notice a diference, also consider setting manual brigthness (low is good), and turn off bluetooth and wifi when not in use.

AnonD-550948

i just bought a brand new unit here in the philippines and the issue that really caught my attention is how fast the battery decreases. i researched a lot about 5X before even buying it and based on the reviews, it has good battery life. but 3days after buying the phone i noticed how fast the battery reduces. i can compare it to my 3yr old iphone 4s, they almost have the same battery life. btw i am a moderate user and haven't even tried using the phone for heavy graphic games. the battery lasts for the whole day if used for average of 1 hour mobile data browsing and the remaining hours resting or have the phone do nothing at all because the cellular data itself eats up a lot like 5 mins of it loses up to 2% of my battery. is it normal for this phone to have this performance or should i contact my seller about this? what should i do to save more battery life? is it safe to turn my battery saver after fully charging my phone?

AnonD-550948

Good day! i kinda need an explanation as to why my seller said that the OS should not be updated, for it can damage the unit. that bothered me for the main reason i bought this is because it is nexus plus it is the affordable version compared to 6P. i bought it here in the philippines and fyi this unit is only sold to few stores. i just need to know why. thank you!

Claire

i just bought mine here in the philippines, brand new. and i noticed how fast the battery reduces. is this normal for this unit? i can compare it to my old iphone 4s which i have been using for 3 years. they almost have the same battery life to think that that iphone is really old. i researched a lot before buying this phone and got a little disappointed with the battery performance because i was expecting more from it. can anyone give any tips for me? i am hoping to get answers from here. thanks! :) ps i'm just a moderate user and got my phone for about 3 days now.

Buy the Nexus 5x. You won't be sorry with stock Android that get timely updates. I'm moving from a G4 to the 5x. I can't stand all the crap LG puts on their phones.
