You won't be able to do so with a 6P. It's roughly the same size as the iPhone 6 Plus... and that's not "one hand friendly" at all...
I've got a Nexus 5X, you've got questions. Let's do this!

Any battery life impressions whatsoever would be great.
Did you have any trouble activating it on Verizon?

I thought that too, but recently went into a Verizon store and played with the iphone 6+ since the specs are the same. Now, I really couldn't truly hand it free-form, because it was attached by this security knob on the back to a cord to a table, but it was pretty darned close to holding it naturally. And, I really didn't feel overwhelmed by it. I probably couldn't do the swipe-down from the top one-handed, or at least I could have to shift it in my hand a bit, but the rest of the screen could be reached by my thumb one-handed. Now, that was without a case on it of course....
This is really frustrating, as several other first-impression reviewers have said good things about the screen brightness of the 5x outdoors, and one even said it was more legible than the 6p! Sigh...Glad I haven't canceled the 6p order yet.

Sorry, can you clarify? If you have a currently activated SIM on Verizon would it work? You mentioned earlier you've used the phone on Verizon.

If you put an activated SIM in, it works. If you take this phone to Verizon, they probably won't activate it.

So far the phone hasn't shown any signs of slowing down. It's running all of the same apps as the Nexus 6P next to me, and performance is basically the same.
I am still rocking a 2013 Moto X, and I love its size, but despise its camera. I had a Nexus 4 and a 2013 Nexus 5 as well for a bit, but preferred the size of the Moto X.
I am a huge fan of stock Android and fast updates. Everyone tells me I'll “get used to” a bigger phone, but every time I use one and come back to the Moto X, I feel at home.
Should I give up my dream of a 4.3–4.7" Nexus and go to the Nexus 5X, or hold off and see what else the market has to offer? My Moto X still works great and is running 5.1, so I don't have an urgent need to upgrade. I am just really jealous of the cameras on these newer phones.

How's the vibration motor? I have the Nexus 4 and it's often too weak to feel in my pocket, or too quiet to hear if sitting on the table right next to me. Thanks!
I've seen a video that appeared to be a blue light, but I guess could have been an LED white. Oh well.
Can anyone else that already has their 5x try to confirm this? One of my favorite features of my 5 was that I could assign different colors to different notifications. It'd be disappointing if there was only a white notification light on the 5x

Finally got it to change colors! I rebooted the phone and got green and red from the AC app and gmail.
