Hi there
For those of you that have experience with both the Nexus 5X and LG G4, please inform me on the camera quality between the two.
I currently have a G4 and I hate the LG UI. Is the Nexus 5X on par with the G4 in the camera department or does it fall behind?
I look forward to your response!
Warm regards

I have got two questions to genuine nexus 5x users
1) How is the loudness via headphon... moreHi,
I have Maxell Studio Series ST2000, I normally use the volume at low (3 taps from silence) at the office, at mid volume (8 taps from silence) is pretty loud, so you can listen to music very well with headphones, with the phone's speakers you'll have to max the volume.
For the battery, It usually lasts a whole weekend (I rarely use the phone on weekends), for example, I had it with 96% on Saturday morning, read some whatsapp chats, viewed some notifications on facebook and that's it, on Sunday morning, the phone is at 83% without any charge in between. But that's my usage, on weekdays I use it the most. I have to charge the phone 1 to 3 times a day because I play a lot of games and use facebook a lot.
Remember this phone is for low to average users, not for heavy users.

This was an upgrade from a 3 year old Samsung Galaxy S4, here are my observations after using the Nexus 5X for a month:
- Worse graphics capability. Simple games (like Candy Crush) will graphically lag when larger portions of the screen have action. Other simple games will just close.
- Worse battery consumption when multi-tasking. While plugged in through a "slow charging" outlet, I use the phone as a dash cam (Daily Roads Voyager app) in the background, and have Ingress in the foreground. After a 30-minute commute, the battery is drained by at least 70%. The Galaxy S4 in the same setup would only drain up to 30%.
- Higher heat when multi-tasking. Using the above configuration, I have to direct my A/C vents up at the phone to keep it cool. Ambient temperature was mid-to-low 70's.
- Speaker is loose, broken, or poor quality. When using the phone and turning up the volume, the speaker sound will vibrate.
- Faster single task opening. Apps open faster than on the S4.
- Rapid charging with USB-C cable is significantly faster and more convenient than the S4 with a USB-A cable. As long as I'm plugged into an outlet using the USB-C plug. I purchased an A-to-C adapter plug to use with all my existing USB-A gear. That negates the Rapid Charging capability of the phone.

I have got two questions to genuine nexus 5x users
1) How is the loudness via headphon... moreHi,
In response to your questions:
1. Loudness... I have a Maxell Studio Series ST2000 headphones listen to music at the office at low volume (3 taps of the volume button from silence mode), in medium volume (8 taps of the volume button) is insanely loud, in full volume I prefer to remove the headphones. I usually listen to rock/metal, so it's pretty loud. For example, voice notes from whatsapp are usually low volume, so if I use my headphones, I put the volume at low-medium, depending if I want to hear more detail. If I use the phone's speaker I have to put it at medium-full volume to listen at it, depending if I want anyone else to hear at the message or just me.
2. Battery... I'm at HSPA+ network and the phone in weekends (when I use it less) lasts a full day with extra juice for the other. On weekdays I usually charge it 1-2 times a day, depending on usage (whatsapping, gaming, facebooking, youtubing, instagraming). So yeah, you will have to charge it at least 1-2 times a day, heavy users might need up to 4 charges a day according to my experience.
Hope this resolve your inquiry, regards.

Guys,
I have got two questions to genuine nexus 5x users
1) How is the loudness via headphone? Gsmarena review says it's not very loud?
2) How is the battery backup? Again, from gsmarena review, it looks average. For me, full time the phone will be connected to 3g network and i would like to browse (at least 5 hours) ,check FB often.

I bought one two months ago. It works fine. Good pictures and filming capabilities.
Unfortunately, I cannot cast the screen to my TVs. It only accepts chromecast devices.
So you must spend more money, even when your TV has a WiDi receiver build in.
Battery lasts for 1-2 days, depending on how much I use it. I also like the colors on the screen.

I am facing a weird problem with my handset.
My contacts automatically gets deleted and not all but some. So it becomes very difficult for me to determine which is deleted and thus creates a lot of problems.
Apart from this, it is a quite decent phone

shaahin, 23 Apr 2016best camera, alas there is no charge to turn it on and take a photo! The battery is pathetic, ... more1. Double tap the power button to launch the camera
2. The battery life depends heavily on how you use the phone, my N5X lasts a day and a little longer since I rarely use it on weekends, on weekdays, I use to charge it two times a day because I use to play games a lot. No heating whatsoever on mine.
3. If you're careful with your phone, you won't need a case, I had a Nexus 4 for 2 years and never put a case on it. Neither in this one.
4. Sunlight, LOL, I live in a tropical area and the phone don't have problems in direct sunlight, just adjust the brightness and it's very clear.
5. The only point I give to you, every Nexus 5X and 6P owners HAVE to buy a new cable or a converter.

Not quite sure where all the negative. This phone is $200/$250 for those of us who got it on discount. Had an optional damage insurance for cheap option.
Camera? Slow? Double tap power button. Instant camera.
Slow? I've yet to experience these issues everyone says. I think people are looking for things to complain about while comparing this to a $500 or more phone.
The only complaints is the backing which seems common with clicking sound. Fixed with case. Slightly thicker than iPhone.
Other than that the screen looks great. And at first I thought was weird to have a finger scanner on the rear, but it works.
