expected to arrive early november | Thinking of getting the 128GB 6P but the the back camera looks ugly. The 5X looks good but only have 16 or 32GB version and only 2GB or ram so might not be very future prof.

The Nexus 5X is the same price as a Moto X Play. Being unlocked out of the box and possessing a faster processor, there isn't much benefit to going with the 5X. The fingerprint sensor in theory sounds cool, but I'd take water-resistance over that.

Was waiting for this. Made my choice to get the Pure X edition and get it shipped to Point Roberts (Or the 1+2 if I get an invite). Not liking the 5X look

Was considering upgrading from my 1st gen Nex5 for the 5X but it doesn't seem its enough of an upgrade to do so. While I can make do with the 16gb of storage, the 2gb of ram is pretty disappointing.

Jesus, apparently it beat out the G4 or at least tied it according to DXO - Google Nexus 6P review: Serious contender for mobile photography - DxOMark
