As most of us were expecting, Google is launching not one but two new Nexus phones: the 5.2-in. LG-made Nexus 5X and the larger Huawei-made Nexus 6P. Unlike last year’s surprisingly expensive Nexus 6, the new phones are both fantastic deals, at least on paper: $379 for the base model of the Nexus 5X and $499 for the starting-level Nexus 6P.
Last year’s Nexus 6, for comparison, started at $649 — a price that’s competitive with off-contract phones in general but quite high compared to Google’s traditional Nexus pricing.
