I was curious what everyone thought about this. The reason I ask is that I read a lot of android forums and listen to a lot of podcasts (probably too much of both) and for a long time I've heard people clamoring for a new nexus 5 inch device. Well this year they got their wish with the release of the 5X and 6P. Now many of those same people are saying that they either don't like the 5X because it looks too "cheap" or they are getting the 6P instead because it looks more "premium". I first noticed this trend with the latest Samsung flagships where they sacrificed many features for a more "premium" look. For me personally I don't understand any of this desire for this certain look for a device that will spend the majority of its time in my pocket. So am I missing something, or are phones now a fashion statement for most people?
