The Hidden Mystery Behind Google Nexus 5x

Give Me 10 Minutes, I’ll Give You The Truth About Google Nexus 5x

Today Applygist.com Brings you a review on Google Nexus 5x just incase you are looking for an amazing Android Phone. You may consider this unique Google Nexus 5x. 
 One of the most innovative components the Nexus 5X has is the USB Type-C port.
If you planned on getting this phone and using all of your existing
micro-USB cables and accessories, think again before pulling the trigger
on a purchase.

The Nexus 5X comes with a USB Type-C to USB Type-C cable
and a charger that only has a USB Type-C port, so you’ll definitely
need to purchase additional cables and chargers made specifically for
the new technology. USB Type-C is such a big deal because of its
benefits. The technology handles both charging and multiple types of
data transfers, but, more importantly, USB Type-C increases the speed of
a task.

Color options for the Nexus 5X include Carbon, Quartz, and Ice. All
of them have predominantly black sides, which is also the color of the
volume rocker and power button.

Hardware

The Nexus 5X features a 5.2-inch Full HD (1920×1080) IPS LCD display
covered with Corning Gorilla Glass 3, Snapdragon 808 hexa-core
processor, Adreno 418, 2GB of RAM, 16/32GB of internal storage, a 12.3MP
rear camera, a 5MP front camera, a 2700mAh battery (non-removable), a
fingerprint scanner, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, and Bluetooth 4.2.

Performance

Google chose 5.2 inches for the display’s size because of the
coziness. The Full HD resolution, however, probably wasn’t a choice. I
can get by with Full HD because I’m not a spec-demanding consumer, but
you’ve got to execute other areas of the display if you’re not giving me
Quad HD. The IPS LCD display on the Nexus 5X is passable but
disappointing, especially when put next to another phone. Owners of the
Nexus 5X get to stare at a cold, lifeless display while those with the
One A9 are treated to vibrancy. Now I know the One A9 has an AMOLED
display, but Motorola’s Moto X Pure Edition also has an IPS LCD display
that still manages to be accurate and bright. And I’m not exaggerating
when I say even the Moto E (2015) can produce colors on same level as the Nexus 5X. Spending hundreds of dollars to get a Nexus phone must have advantages in the display. It’s inexcusable for a sub-$199 budget phone to be competitive here.
Although the Nexus 6P has Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 810, the Nexus 5X rolls
with the now-dated Snapdragon 808. You’d be correct in assuming it’s
because of Google wanting to keep costs low. Well, it backfired because
this phone’s performance is all over the place. The Nexus 5X cannot
perform consistently for a few hours let alone an entire day. It’s
impossible. Countless times has the phone locked up after I press the
Recents button to jump between apps. I’m particularly puzzled because I
used the LG G4 and Motorola Moto X Pure Edition a lot and never saw
either of those phones go through struggles.

The potential culprit holding back the Nexus 5X could
be its 2GB of RAM instead of the industry standard 3GB of RAM. Software
is the other potential culprit, but Google could have quickly pushed out
a software update to fix these performance woes.
The Nexus 5X has one of the fastest-reading fingerprint scanners I’ve ever come across.

Overall, the phone is not worth any dollar amount right now because
of what it presents to owners. A cold display and inconsistent
performance is not what anyone should be spending a dime on, let alone
$349. Consumers should stay away from the Nexus 5X until Google and LG
explore performance issues and push out a fix. You’re not getting a
hallmark Android experience with the phone in its current state, a
statement never expected to be said regarding a Nexus device.

Battery

Inside the slim body of the Nexus 5X is a 2700mAh battery made by LG
because of the company’s massive LG Chem subsidiary. Again, like the
display, you would expect battery life on the phone to be pretty good
because of the in-house element of the component. Sadly that expectation
is not met. The Nexus 5X can either go very short and almost average
under normal use. When I first got the phone, I was able to go from 9AM
to 9PMbefore needing to charge it. Mind you I’m not a heavy user who
uses Snapchat all day or plays games pushing the processor with complex
graphics.
My daily activities include using Hangouts, Gmail, Twitter,
Chrome, and Threes. Now, four months later, I’m getting even
worse battery life. Getting twelve hours without finding a wall outlet
for charging is impossible. But some days it’s surprisingly better than
usual and I’m baffled. The point is consistency is an issue in this
department, too.

Saving the Nexus 5X from having downright awful battery life is
optimization from the software. Doze, one of Android’s newest features,
recognizes when the phone is inactive for a period of time and defers
apps’ network and processor access until you return to using it.
Overnight or during other stretches of inactivity, the Nexus 5X’s barely
is hardly scathed.
