    Okay Google

    Agreed. I like Google products, but I don't like saying it. The smart home of the future should not share the name of a search engine. At a bare minimum we need a list of names to choose from

    Recent Apps is always empty.

    I'm having the same issue. Started yesterday. Rebooting brings it back, but eventually it happens again. Not sure if it's related, but starting today, the camera and flash are out of sync. It snaps the shot just after the flash, resulting in a very dark picture. Seems too strange to be a...

    Received G5. Battery looks to be pretty bad

    Right. You don't care, but you spent three posts on humor so far. You care so much your head is bursting. Here's on topic: Even if this dude is sitting there staring at the home screen with nothing running, 9 hours SOT is incredible. Add bluetooth streaming music, and it's even crazier. His App...

    Received G5. Battery looks to be pretty bad

    This is historically what people with a terrible sense of humor say to feel better about themselves. We get it. You're sceptical. I am too. But he's done way more to prove his claim than you have to disprove it. So give it a rest until more evidence comes out. I'm sure you're way behind on...

    How do you like your 5x? Regrets at all?

    Mine isn't quite this bad, but it does lag more than others seem to experience. Thinking about asking google to swap mine out.

    [Closed] Win a Nexus 6P or Nexus 5X in our Fa-la-la-liday Contest!

    I'd love a 6P to see what the phablet craze is all about.

    Ho. Lee. Cow. What did Google just do? (Pixel C)

    I found the review to be quite fair. Especially with such a high price tag

    I've never used a phablet, and Pure Android is the way to go!

    5X only charges fast with screen off

    Yup. but if I'm using the device it'll say something like (11 hr until fully charged). If I leave the screen off for a while it'll say a normal charging time.

    5X only charges fast with screen off

    Is anyone else seeing this? My 5X is plugged into the included charger. If I am using the phone while it charges the battery stays at the same level. On the battery page it says 11 hours until full charge. If I leave the screen off it charges quickly, as advertised. This happens whether I'm...

    [Closed] Win a Nexus 5X from Android Central!

    I'd like a Nexus 5x because nothing beats the stock android experience, and the hardware looks great this time around!

    Anyone know when Waze will be hitting Android Auto? If ever?

    No knowledge, but you are not alone.

    What will the Nexus 5X cost in the UK?

    Re: UK pricing Taxes, bro. I'm an American living in the UK, and I was blown away by how expensive everything here is. But Europe in general taxes the **** out of you guys, at least compared to the US. Free healthcare isn't so free I guess.

    Choosing the Nexus 5X over the Nexus 6P

    Re: Why did you buy or why are you considering the 5X over the 6P? I'm torn. I spent money on wireless charging, but I only use it at work, where I am constantly picking up and putting down my phone. At home I end up using my phone (which means no Qi charging) or setting it down for the night...
