Nexus 5X is another example

Nexus 5X is another example
Welcome to a Biomedical Battery specialist of the Sony laptop battery
Photo quality is decent enough, with snaps displaying a large amount of detail and faithful colour replication. The laser auto-focus also means that unlike previous Nexus phones, the 5X can lock onto your subject quickly, ensuring that you don't miss a shot. That's the idea, at least - we found that blurry images were commonplace (there's no Optical Image Stabilization included here either, which surely contributes to this issue), and sometimes the camera wouldn't actually take the shot until a second or so after we'd tapped the button.
Having seen how amazing a camera on an Android device can be thanks to Samsung's amazing snapper on the Galaxy S6, it's disappointing to discover that Google can't make the same leaps and bounds with its own handset. The Nexus 5X is an improvement for sure, but a bit more work is required to make it truly satisfactory from a photographic perspective - the bare-bones camera app in vanilla Android being the prime candidate for an overhaul.

Shockingly for a phone launching in 2015, the entry-level Nexus 5X has just 16G of storage, with the 32GB model costing a little more. While the iPhone's recent refresh also begins with 16GB, this amount of space on a leading phone is quite stingy in this day and age. 32GB is the entry level for other phones - the Galaxy S6 included - and even some of the cheap and cheerful handsets coming over from China from the likes of Xiaomi are shipping with 32GB as the perceived norm.
It's annoying - especially as there's no way of adding in more storage via MicroSD cards - but it's not a deal-breaker, especially if you choose to fully embrace the many cloud-storage options available to you. Google Music can store tens of thousands of tracks free of charge, and Google Drive comes with loads of space for gratis. Third-party alternatives can also be used - such as Dropbox and Box - should you find yourself running out of room.
The 2700mAh battery inside the Nexus 5X is another example of LG cutting cost to keep the price low - a 3000mAh power cell would have been welcome, but we still managed to get a full day of moderate use out of the device before it required charging. The Doze feature in Android 6.0 certainly helps stamina - if your set you phone down for large portions of the day you can expect the battery life to extend by quite a bit. The inclusion of a USB Type C connector means that it doesn't take long to top up the battery - you can get around 5 hours of stamina from a 10 minute charge, and to totally fill the battery you're looking at around an hour and a half on the wall socket - not as fast as the Turbo Charging on last year's Nexus 6, but still decent enough.
One thing worth noting is that wireless charging - something that was present in both the Nexus 5 and the Nexus 6 - is absent from this device. It's an odd choice given how much Google pushed the feature over the past two years, but not a disaster - the USB Type C connection charges much faster anyway.
