I prefer a Nexus over any other phone. Not for the design, not for the specs, ... Freedom is everything for me in a phone. Freedom to root, to unlock bootloader, to relock bootloader... and still with warranty. Plus, N5X has an incredible camera this year.

The camera is one of the 5x's best features. It focuses easily and pictures are taken effortlessly. At close distances (2m or less I believe) it uses laser auto focus such as your LG device.

Camera takes great pictures, but lacks support of recording [email protected] fps. This is an disadvantage comparing to G3.

It all depends what you like. If you like Samsung type devices with overlays then get the S6. If you like a wide variety of custom roms and kernels and all run wonderfully then get the Nex. I used to always get the latest flashship from Samsung back in the day and after experiencing Nexus and XDA I'm all Nex. In my opinion Nexus has the best devs and fact is roms run ALOT better on a Nexus vs anything else. Less bugs, no bugs. I've had many devices since Android began and I love my Nexus's more than any! Now they are making Nexus phones with beefed up specs and cameras. I'm happier than ever. ?

Ps: If I was you I'd wait a few more months and grab one of the next Nexus devices.

Stock Android (supported til end of 17) vs TouchWiz
plastic vs glass/metal build
S6 slightly more expensive than N5x (at least in Germany atm)
comparable hardware specs and quality incl camera

I think both devices are different enough to make a decision if you answer what's more important for you.

It's not the brighest of all displays, but it's alright. Comes down to what you want to do with it in bright sunlight.
I only miss OIS when recording 4k vids, there's no way for me to get them shake-free unless using a tripod or resting the phone somewhere. Rest of the time there are no problems. There's also a hack to enable EIS on the N5x (it's a N6p feature, but they share camera), needs root though iirc.

Is nexus 5x with android N a beast or no.I think the s6 will be best choice and for sure it will be updated to android N the s6.

If you don't care about root (Verizon S6 doesn't have root past lollipop) and just want a solid reliable basic phone, I would go with the S6. I have both and the S6 is my daily driver. Main reason is I am on Verizon and they don't really support unlocked devices and when i tried my Nexus it was dropping calls. However, i didn't put any effort to make it better. I'm on my Nexus flashing all the time and i need my S6 in case I get a phone call. Nexus however is far more fun and I would get rid of my S6 before I got rid of my Nexus.

I want phone with nice and smooth performance and nice camera and i hope s6 will get android N btw i will buy international s6.

I have just exchanged from a unlocked s6 to the nx5, best move I have ever contemplated and done. I have until getting a gs6 always been a Nexus fan, from a Nexus one all the way till a Nexus 5 they have always been the device that suits me. Until the s6 came out with the new shiny glass casing I thought well this new device needs a try ? god I was so wrong to take the GS route the software is SH-IT! I rapidly traded my device back to a N5X and have never looked back ??

 

[Mercz23]

But for sure s6 will have better performance than nexus 5x

Mercz23, why do you even ask you seem to have made a decision already before you asked in this forum. Everyone is trying to tell you that the Nexus 5x is more fun than the Galaxy S6 but still you going for the S6. So why'd you even ask? just go look for a review...
