Choosing the Nexus 5X over the Nexus 6P

Exactly. That and Google Drive for other files eliminates 80% of the storage I actually need.

Cloud (terminal) based computing... people should get used to it. It's for certain the future. If you ever use a chromebook, it's a good way to force yourself to change over to this style of computing. haha. For the rare moments when you dont have a data connection, it's so easy to just invest in a wireless storage drive or even USB OTG.

I have a PC at my home office work desk that I also use as my main server and everything else feeds off that for media > chromebook laptops, phones and tablets. Also so easy to simply use Google remote access to use that server for heavy computing from any of those said devices.

Re: Why did you buy or why are you considering the 5X over the 6P?

Does the white 5x has the same soft back as the black Nexus 5? I bought the white Nexus 5 and didnt particularly like the slippery plastic feel of it.

It seems the black 5x has the same back and texture of the Nexus, does anyone know if its the same for the Mint and white one?

I know what you mean. My wife had a red Nexus 5 and the back was much more slippery than the black N5 I had. I love the back of the N5 black.

I really want to know if the blue is like the black or the white (on the original 5). I hope the blue is soft back.
