I have the 5x and I love it. I have had absolutely zero complaints. Battery is just a complaint I have about every phone. I freaking love the fingerprint sensor.

I don't see a need to move up to the 6p but if my wife gets tired of the note 4. Then I'll either move to the 6p or pixel.

I have a nexus 5x and I love it. It's small, light, and comfortable to hold and use.

My prior phone was a nexus 6. I thought it was too bulky for my liking. I will say that the display on the 6 was incredible though.

I've had both. While I love the 5x the 6p blows it away. You can't go wrong with either phone though. I'm already eyeing my next phone. The oneplusfour.

I may buy the 5x. Found some in "mint" condition for under $300.


ETA: but I guess I will wait for the new phones to come out.

I'd wait. I think it's October 4th or something.

i had the nexus 6 and dropped it, shattered the screen. would have been $150 to get it fixed, or $200 for a new 5x, so i went with the 5x.
its a good phone. does slow down sometimes, but for the price, i couldnt pass it up. plus the fingerprint scanner was a huge upgrade over my old 6. i do miss the size of my 6 though.
curious to see the final prices on the pixel phones. may switch over to one of those in new year.

What about the Oneplus3? Or Motorola? Sony? Are those phones good?

I have a couple friends who have OnePlus3's they're a great phone but are still budget builds compared to my 6p. My 6p blows my SO'S Iphone 6+ out the water. Best phone I've ever owned

Looks like I'm going to get the 6p or the new Google phone.

ETA: I was dead set on switching to Apple but damn I saw that the 32gb 7 is $1,000.00. That's just insane to me. I will never spend that much on a cell phone.

Think outside the box. Buy a used phone 6 16gb and trade it on for a $650 value for the iPhone 7

So I know the pixel is making its debut or whatever on October 4, but when are they supposed to start selling them.

Cheapest 5x and 6p on swappa right now is around $230 and $360. How much of a price drop should expect to start seeing ones the pixel is being sold

6P battery is crap. Make sure to buy car chargers and portable chargers. It shuts off a lot when it says it's only 15%.
