I will just call/text on it, no mobile gaming or anything... No processor heavy stuff...

Eh they're not great. The build quality is a little meh, the finish will wear away quickly, the camera is garbage. Battery life is sad.

If you just need a basic phone though, that's not a bad price. You could do worse.

The guys are all right.

Nexus was google's phone before the Pixel.

It was not getting good reviews, which led to Google's change.

Won’t visit often..

5x has the well known 808 for its bad chip casing bootloop, it will bootloop no matter what you do, just sooner or later.

avoid at all cost

And in addition, you buy a Phone, that has an outdated Android, and will not receive any Updates anymore.

 

Invest into a Xiaomi A2 Lite for example. Gives you the same "stock android experience", but comes with a MUCH better battery life, more modern design, and not a worse performance. 

And of course, it will be up 2 date for the next 2-3 years.
