behind us Google press conference, which presented two newest line of Nexus smartphones. The first, developed by LG Nexus 5X, as predicted is a device equipped with a 5.2-inch display, belonging to medium-high price range. Its specification should be sufficient for all the tasks, but may disappoint the biggest enthusiasts.

Case
Presented today smartphone will be equipped with a plastic cover in three different colors – black, mint and white. The dimensions of the device are 147 x 72.6 x 7.9 mm and its weight is 136 mm. It is therefore a slightly larger equipment and minimally gently even lighter than the Samsung Galaxy S6. In this regard it is therefore bad. Smartphone LG should be felt in the hand, but also convenient in everyday use.
Display
LG Nexus 5X is equipped with a 5.2-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels . These parameters translate to the density pixels at 424 ppi. The display is covered with glass Corning Gorilla Glass 3, which will greatly increase the strength of the device. In addition, glass is resistant to leaving for the fingerprints and smudges. This is thanks oleophobic surface that repels liquids and dirt.
Many people may not like to display parameters. In the end, the market can be found even devices with screens with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels. That’s true, but now these parameters are useless. Displays with high resolution smartphones can be useful only in virtual reality applications, but even the parameters mentioned above screen will be insufficient to achieve perfectly sharp in glasses / goggles virtual reality. To be noted in the materials VR significant difference relative to the FullHD display, it is necessary to apply the screen with a resolution of 4K.
Unfortunately smartphones on the market today do not have the performance of the GPU (in this case a fast Adreno 418) enables comfortable use them. This is evidenced even Sony Xperia Z5, in which a new, more detailed display is only used to play multimedia content. In other applications, the screen works in 4 times lower resolution FullHD. Sony opted for this solution because the application interface 4K throughout the software would lead to a huge drop in productivity and working time smartphone without charge.
Google and LG are aware of this and therefore decided to make use of cheaper, more practical, less łasego energy and providing higher performance solutions. You can see the hand of LG, LG G4 that spending has proven that he can make smartphones in a reasonable manner, without counting on the trance users the same magic digits. For this reason, I believe that the display of the new Nexus is sufficient, and because of the smaller loss of efficiency and power, even better than the screens of 2K.
processor
Agreement used in the South Korean equipment is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808, which is provided with a total of six cores. Two of them are fast Cortex-A57, while four are energy-efficient Cortex-A53. A layperson would think that a little. In the end, the market is many circuits 8-core, they occur even in smartphones costing less than 1000 zł.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of them apply only energy-efficient cores, making real yield smartphone does not grow noticeably compared to the quad models. Excuses also requires the superiority of LG Nexus 5X on smartphones such as the HTC One M9, the LG G Flex 2 and Sony Xperia Z3 +. In the end, they are equipped with efficient, eight-core chips Qualcomm Snapdragon 810, which are two times more powerful Cortex-A57 than the processor used in the LG Nexus 5X.
It turns out that Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 in the housing HTC One M9 heats up so much that HTC has decided to issue a software update. It solved the problem in a truly astonishing way. Namely, it turns off the strongest cores, making it almost all the time acting only energy-efficient cores. More efficient part of the work only in test applications.
It was the perfect solution for HTC. On the one hand it can boast that their devices are used in the absolute best components and it is true. On the other hand, their equipment is already overheating. And that the equipment uses only slightly more than half of its potential and is therefore more expensive than it should? About the HTC forgets. With the bigger problem facing the Sony Xperia Z 3 +, which does not survive until the appropriate update. Therefore, on a sunny day can be itself off.
In the case of the LG Nexus 5X will not be this problem. Even after a long association with LG G4 know that the system works steadily, but the phone does not overheat even under adverse conditions, and its efficiency and so remains large enough that 99% of users will not notice the use of the weaker components. Since that system, applications and games run on LG G4 run absolutely smoothly, the presence of a weaker system can be seen only in the benchmarks. This should also be the new Nexus.
Memory
The amount of memory used in the new Nexus may give rise to controversy. Enthusiasts complain that it is the only 2GB (Type LPDDR3), while the latest models are already 3-4 GB of memory. Does this mean that the LG Nexus 5X is standing out from the competition? Yes, at least in theory. However, in practice this may mean that Android will be better optimized than ever before. In the end, Nexus is Google’s flagship device, and the company from Mountain View does not allow himself to create equipment that would work correctly with the new versions of Android over the next few years. This is great news for owners of previous Nexus. 
surprised that the LG Nexus 5X is available in two versions capacitive. The first of these has only 16 GB of flash memory, while another 32 GB. Of course, Nexus does not have a slot for a microSD card, so their capacity can not be increased. Capacities may suffice most users, but if someone wants to exploit the full potential of your smartphone and use it among other things to record video in 4K resolution via built-in camera, quickly find that the memory is definitely not enough.
Built-in cameras
LG Nexus 5X is to have two cameras. The front features a resolution at 5 Megapixels and a brightness of f / 2.0. In turn, the front is equipped with a sensor resolution of 12.3 MP, and its optical brightness is f / 2.0. Even after that you can infer that the camera is standing out from the models built in the Samsung Galaxy S6 and LG G4, but still it could be pretty good photographic smartphone. In addition, the camera has a built-in laser autofocus, two LEDs flash and video recording 4K.
Standards of communications and sensors
LG Nexus 5X has a standard set of ports and sockets. Used here only output minijack and USB-C, which replaced the hitherto used microUSB port. On the other hand under the flap is a card slot nanosim. A little hurt no function DualSIM, that would enable the two numbers simultaneously. Smartphone can not be criticized for absolutely nothing when it comes to wireless communications standards supported. Used here include the latest WiFi standard ac, Bluetooth 4.1, GPS, GLONASS, and NFC.
On the other hand, built-in sensors that pedometer, accelerometer, gyroscope, barometer, magnetic sensor, proximity sensor, ambient light sensor and on the back of the reader Imprint Nexus fingerprint, which is useful when using contactless payments. It is a set of currently used sensors, we can say that there is no shortage absolutely anything that he needed.
Battery
LG Nexus 5X is equipped with a built-in rechargeable battery with a capacity of 2700 mAh, which is quite long for a 5.2-inch model. This combined with a reasonable specification means that you will had a long battery life. The phone has also support fast charging using Qualcomm’s technology Quick Charge 2.0. Unfortunately, it does not support wireless charging
Software
On the new Android 6.0 Marshmallow, which will power the new Nexus commented Charles Kopańko that tests a development version of the system for several months in the previous Nexus 5, also from LG.
Summary
LG Nexus 5X is a very interesting device, which you may not have the specifications of the highest quality, but should do the vast majority of users. It has a pretty fast processor that does not have problems with overheating and all necessary sensors and communication standards. The only disappointment may be a small amount of flash memory and RAM. This last parameter should cheer us, however, because it means that future versions of Android will run on outfits perfectly equipped with just 2GB of RAM, which is plenty on the market. I myself am pleased with the specifications of the LG Nexus 5X and were it not that I already have the model LG G4, I would seriously consider buying this smartphone. In the end, this is not done for pure Android?
