G+_Randy Strye Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I'm in emergency money saving mode and the wife's 5X is dead. 6P or Pixel are unfortunately out of the budget. At this point, would you recommend another 5X or a Nexus 6? Size isn't an issue. Jason Howell? Artem Russakovskii? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joseph Cappellino Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Hmm. They are just about the same, but I think the camera is better on the 5X. 6P might be worth it. What happened to the 5X? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Randy Strye Posted September 17, 2016 Author Share Posted September 17, 2016 Joseph Cappellino she spilled water on it. It will charge a little tiny bit, then get REALLY hot and stop charging. Unfortunately, 6P is sell too expensive for the budget. Right now, it's a toss up between staying on Project Fi and getting another 5X or a 6 or going to another BYOD prepaid plan and getting a Huawei Honor 5x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Alexander Ho Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 My wife's 5x started to smoke out while one the stock charger so it's gone to LG for warranty repairs. In the meantime I went and got her the Alcatel Idol 3 (was $150 @ Best Buy). It's slower than the 5x but seems to be holding over well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Robin “SirIzzyBlack” Wi Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 The Honor 5x is a good phone from what I hear. You might also want to consider the OnePlus 3 or X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Randy Strye Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 Update on this, we got her a new 32GB Nexus 5X for $219. She was intrigued by the honor 5X and we almost pulled the trigger but she ultimately wanted to stay with Project Fi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
