Sure, the 5X is smaller, but at 5.8 inches (147mm) it's still bigger than my nexus 5, which clocks in at an already-hefty 5.4 inches (138mm).
The 5X is 5.2 inches.

#92To the moon! Considering it's a six inch phone, how close to my face am I going to be holding this thing?
I wonder what's coming next. 240Hz refresh rates?

128 GB would be enough, but I resent having to pay an extra $150 for it as internal storage when I can find a 128gb memory card for about $60 on Amazon.
The internal memory is much faster than SD cards, and potentially more reliable. I think Google and Samsung have decided to ditch sd cards to prevent the user having a shitty experience. Also, Google is offering 128GB, which is pretty decent. And their pricing is much less than Samsung's for 64gb vs 32gb.
Re: Google Nexus 5x and 6P
#95In terms of the software, the Nexus phones are some of the best I've ever had, because they don't mess around with Android to try and 'improve' it, and because they get regular, timely upgrades. My Nexus 4 is still going strong several years after I got it. I'm tempted by the 5x, though I wish it were a bit smaller.
I don't like that the battery is under 3000 mAh but it is only $380...though I guess others are saying that the Moto X Pure and the Xperia Z3 are around the same price point but better?
Re: Google Nexus 5x and 6P
#96Why did Google bother with all of that work to fix SD storage in Android M[0] if they're still not going to put an SD card in their Nexus phones!?! I was holding out hope that I would finally have a reason to buy a Nexus phone with the 5X or 6P, but now that we have the final spec sheet, I think I'm going to just grab an HTC One M9 or something. The lack of expandable storage really kills it for me. [0] http://www.an…
Serious question - do you really use more than 128GB on your phone? If so, at what point would internal storage be good enough for you to not require extendable storage?

I think Google has decided to ditch SD cards to encourage users to keep more of their data on Google's servers.
Re: Google Nexus 5x and 6P
#98I really need to see a comparison between 6P, Moto X Pure, and current 6. Those are the phones I need to decide between. Current 6 only b/c it should get cheap and the Snapdragon 820 comes out next year, but I'm not sure I can wait a year with my aging Moto X 2013.
