4 Reasons why not to buy Google Nexus 5X

1.Just 2GB of RAM

Over the next year, Android apps are going to become heavier and start consuming more resources as developers transition to the 64-bit apps will use 64-bit memory pointers and use more RAM. Considering Nexus 5X it is not a very efficient device when the next generation of apps hits the market, thus making it unreliable in the long run.

2.Optical Image Stabilization is missing

Nexus 5X has the best camera Google has put in a Nexus device.It yet lacks one major feature: Optical Image Stabilization (OIS). OIS is the feature that ensures that your photos and videos don't (largely) come out blurry even if your hands are shaking a little when you shoot.

3.No storage expansion

The lack of support for storage expansion is a continuing problem for the Nexus range right from the first-generation model. For all the music, photos, videos and other media a 16 GB of storage would be insufficient.

4.Too expensive

With a starting price of Rs 31,900, Nexus 5X is a little too expensive, especially considering that OnePlus 2 (which is a good smartphone any day, if not great) for Rs 24,999. The 16GB Nexus 5X prices around 10% more than Nexus 5 and 32 GB is expected to cost around 32GB.
