Small battery.
Any specs on the 5P or are they going to be similar.
My Nexus 5 is dying now and my contract ends in November. I'm going to see how close I am to getting a OPT before I go and get another contract I think but if I go the contract route it will be for this or possibly the G4.
I've not seen anything of Marshmallow yet.

 

[Dannyeff]

The spec doesnt look that great

 

[Keydogg]

Seeing the specs of those made me really pleased with my Huawei Honor 7 purchase, I thought I might regret it on seeing the Nexus 5x release, but I'm happy with that!

Keeps slowing down lots. I've cleared cache, reset phone etc and no better.
Completely crashed the other day. Took ages to turn off.
Restarted it yesterday and had a 30% drop of battery when I turned it back on

 

[JJ!]

I'm hoping looking at the specs that the 5X will follow in the 5's cheaper price. The 6 was a big jump in price.

 

[Gally]

Hmmm not as impressive as I had hoped. My Note4 kinda embarrasses it and it's a year old now, long time in the phone world.

No idea what I'll get next!

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

The "P" is actually a 6 looking at reports. It's got the odd camera bar at the top,bigger battery, more ram, better ppi. Shame about the size though. The 5 is a perfect size for a phone.

Phones are getting to the stage now where we're almost upgrading for the sake of it! So many good phones out nowadays though, it's a case of take your pick and enjoy!

[Ay Ay Ron]

The P might be an option I think. The specs of the S aren't as good but it's a perfect size for a phone..

 

[JamesBryan]

Will wait and see what happens tomorrow. Hopefully the P is a decent price range.

The N6 was a fair jump up in price from the N5.

 

[JJ!]

The X starts at £319 according to some reports online with pre orders starting today.

 

[JJ!]

The rumoured 2GB ram is disappointing.

 

[JamesBryan]

It's all about the P I think, the X sounds a little disappointing as you say.

We'll see.

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

Yeah, shame the specs of the P aren't in the phone size of the X.

 

[Addicted]

The X specs are pathetic! Glad I didn't bother holding out tbh.

 

[alistairolsen]

So as I've got a nexus 5 which is was/am very pleased with, and the price point suits outright purchase/SIM only within what I can justify, what would people replace it with?

For the live stream at 5pm if anyone is bored at work.

Probably not haha, know our luck they'll save them till last.

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

They started with the phones at 5. Not sure how long they talked about them but I got up to the camera on the 6 and then my stream died.

I think from the short bit I watched, the 6 is looking like the one to get

 

[JJ!]

Looks like I might just keep the 5.

 

[JamesBryan]

I'll be getting the 6x at £329, that's good value IMO.

The N5 2013 was £300, so it's not much more.

 

[JJ!]

5x is good value but was hoping for more ram compared to the other budget buys its a bit mean.

 

[Addicted]

Better off with a OnePlus Two with those specs, much better off.

4gb ram right?

I need to get on invite list!!

 

[Addicted]

4gb ram right?

Yeah, and 64gb storage :smile:

Screen is lower PPI on the OPT, but still in the 400's, and it's an older 808 CPU on the 5x, while the OPT has an 810.

Granted, there's a few bugs in the ROM used, my contacts won't import to the car, and I can't get my OTG cable working, but otherwise solid now!

I'm assuming that those will be fairly quick bug fixes that are pushed through?

I need to check where I am in the queue for the OPT

I stand corrected, it's £449 lol.

 

[JJ!]

I stand corrected, it's £449 lol.

Its £339 or £379 for 32GB

The 6P is £449/499/579

 

[JamesBryan]

Ordered a 6P

 

[JJ!]

Nice! The X still tempts me, even with 2GB Ram!

 

[JamesBryan]

Only gone for the 32GB. More than enough for me, i've not even filled my N5 lol

I don't think it's all about 'dat RAM yo' tbh, the 5X still has some nice features.

 

[JJ!]

Think I'm going to wait and see how Android M runs on my N5 - its still in mint condition!

 

[JamesBryan]

Aye mine is still mint too.

I did have the first Developer Preview of Marshmallow on it, ran perfectly apart from some apps wouldn't work but that was to be expected in a beta.

Can only hope, otherwise other roms will fix it no doubt

That's the old one. Probably be cheaper on Google store once the 6x is released
