Weekly poll: Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P vie for your affections

Google unveiled its 2015 vision for the perfect Android phone - the compact, affordable Nexus 5X and the big, premium Nexus 6P. Ignoring the silly price premium that Europeans will have to pay, both phones caused a lot of excitement. The Nexus 6P is the first Nexus phone with a metal unibody. It features a last-gen Samsung display - 5.7" Super AMOLED, just like the Note5 - and an impressive camera with large pixels for surprisingly good image quality. We saw a 240fps slo-mo video from the camera and it looked great. So, Huawei Nexus 6P - thumbs up or down? We feel this is an easy enough to answer, in the US the new flagship is a killer deal. The Nexus 5X was LG's chance to improve on the highly popular 2013 model. It features a slightly bigger screen, 5.2" 1080p, but there are a great deal of compromises. For one, the chipset is not fast enough for 240fps videos, it comes with 2GB of RAM too (like the Nexus 4 back in 2012), it doesn't have stereo speakers either. For still images and videos the camera is still great, plus the Nexus 5X adds the fingerprint reader and USB Type-C goodies like the 6P. Still, this vote might end up...
