Which one to buy? Google Nexus 6P or Nexus 5X

16GB is not really enough these days, and Nexus 5X 32GB model is $70 cheaper compared to Nexus 6P. Do you think it’s enough saving? What are you loosing for this $70? Let’s know.

$70 will make you loose these features or specs if you choose Nexus 5X

  • Premium metal body
  • LPDDR4 faster ram (Nexus 5X has 2GB LPDDR3, and Nexus 6P feature 3GB LPDDR4 RAM)
  • 5.7 inches larger display
  • 2K/QHD resolution
  • Better Protection with Gorilla Glass 4
  • Bigger Battery
  • Faster Snapdragon 810 Chipset

$70 doesn’t justify loosing that many things. To be honest, it’s not saving, but a great loss. However, if you are all about compact, then you can go for Nexus 5X. Google Nexus 6P is a much much better choice in these 2Nexus models.
