I have the 5X and like it but like the phone junkie I am I want the 6P also. I was wondering if anyone with the 6P also has the 5X and is it really that much better. Thanks

My wife has the 5x. Its is a capable device. Similar in a lot of ways to the moto pure. Personally there is no comparison. The 6p is a better device but the 5x is still very capable.

Let me also add the biggest difference by far is the screen. Obviously size, so if you're a phablet person most likely you'd of gone with the 6p. Its a big, glorious screen. Not everyone likes that. Don't get me wrong, it feels great in hand. Better than my OPO, similar to the s6 but no lie it is still a big device. So obviously keep that in mind before you return the 5x.

The 5x screen is pretty nice. I played with my wife's for 3 days before I got my 6p in. If I wasn't on the phablet train I might of settled for that without issue. It really is a good little phone. That said, I love my AMOLED screen and the extra size really is nice for browsing which is how I mostly use my phone.

There are some performance differences as well. 6P being just slightly faster. There is a really good comparison video I'll see if I can find it. If I do I'll put it up here.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

Yea I do like the size on my 5X but also still like my Nexus 6. I'm sure I will get the 6P sometime but to tell you the truth as far as the cameras go, I haven't seen that great of an improvement from the Nexus 6. Some of the low light tests I do around the house seem the same. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess.
