Nexus 6P vs 5X: 10 Things Before Buying!

2015-09-30
the Nexus 5x and 6p are official to pack in Android 6.0 marshmallow and look really good before you pick one up here are 10 things you need to know what's good guys Jonathan here and if you're an Android fan today was a good day and the first thing we're going to talk about is design huawei is behind the 16 even though they made a pretty big impact in the budget market Google just called them up to the big leagues so this is their chance to impress aesthetically I dig the look to the 6p which looks premium as hell and features a brushed aluminum finish that comes in three colors aluminum graphite and frost the good news is there's no protruding camera although there is an unmistakable hump that is smacked right across the top of the phone now that leads to that giant black strip across the top which I feel might drop some mixed reactions but I kind of like it it's very Nexus the 5x on the other hand follows in the footsteps of the Nexus 5 again with LG behind this one unlike the 6p and it's brushed aluminum finish though the 5x is made out of a polycarbonate housing with three flavors Carbon quartz and ice with carbon being my favorite and if you haven't noticed yet there are obviously two different sizes which leads us into our next point displays the 6p is rocking a 5.7 inch 2560 by 1440 AMOLED display with Gorilla Glass 4 whereas the 5x rocks a 5.2 inch 1920 by 1080 IPS display and Gorilla Glass 3 now it's pretty apparent especially as we get further into the video the 6p is better in pretty much every way shape and form in the 5x which to me is a bit of a bummer because ultimately at the end of the day you have to choose between size and performance which leave this in a number 3 that's the internals the 6p is rocking a Snapdragon 810 version 2.1 with an Adreno 430 GPU and three gigs of DDR 4 memory the 5x on the other hand is rocking a Snapdragon 808 and Adreno 418 GPU and 2 gigs of ddr3 memory so on paper that means the 6p is 8 cores and the 5x is 6 cores and does that mean that automatically the 6p is the phone you got to have not necessarily obviously both phones are going to perform very well but if you want the latest and greatest credit inch specs you're going to opt for the 6p the next step contrary to all the differences both of these do have a fingerprint sensor aka Nexus imprint since there isn't a physical home button on either of these phones the fingerprint sensor is located on the back and it's ladies need less than 600 milliseconds to recognize a fingerprint these are also said to adapt and to a proved over time which can be a bad thing but the one thing I'm curious about is if the Nexus imprint is the same across both phones always done a really solid job with fingerprint sensors lately so I'm curious to see if both sensors are hallway or if LG was stuck throwing something else in there so next up we're going to talk about cameras and both phones should have awesome cameras and I emphasize should because that's only if the software matches the hardware both the 6p and the 5x or sporting 12 megapixel rear shooters they also have an app 2.0 aperture IR laser assisted autofocus 4k video up to 30 fps and dual flash where they differ though is on the front facing camera the 6p has an 8 megapixel front shooter whereas the 5x has 5 megapixels so next up we're going to talk about storage and once again this is where these two differ neither have expandable storage with the 6p comes in 32 64 and 128 gigabyte options whereas the 5x comes in 16 and 32 now Apple just got a ton of heat for their 16 gigabyte base iPhone and just like that wasn't okay it's a little bit of a bummer to see 16 gigs on the 5x again it's 2015 and 32 gigabytes should really be the base model for all phones next up we're going to talk about batteries and just like we've seen throughout the video so far once again the 6p is killing the specs inside is a massive 30 450 milliamp hour battery but the kicker here is you're going to get up to seven hours of use from only 10 minutes of charging through USB see the 5x on the other hand has a 2700 milliamp hour battery you do still get USB C on the 5x and fast charging but it's nowhere near as fast you're getting three point eight hours of use in about 10 minutes of charging so following that we're going to talk about speakers and the 6p has dual front-facing stereo speakers whereas the 5x only has a single speaker and if you've ever experienced dual stereo speakers on a smartphone it is really hard to go back so following that let's go and talk pricing the 5x starts out at 379 that's going to get you 16 gigabytes or you can jump up to 32 for 429 the 6p starts out at 499 that's going to get you these 32 gigs of storage for 50 bucks more you get 64 gigs or for 100 more on top of that that's going to get you 128 gigabytes of storage now the last thing that you need to know is that both of these are running Android 6.0 marshmallow which is awesome you're getting full unadulterated Android the latest updates and I think the best part here is you're not only getting choice but you're also getting some pretty solid specs to back it up aside from that that pretty much wraps up today's video hopefully enjoyed it if you did you are feel like being awesome make sure to go Mike Ehrmantraut on that like button and let me know if you guys have seen 5x or teen 6p part of me likes the size of the 5x but I'm really drawn towards those specs the 6p this is Jonathan and I'll catch you guys later
