Would you get the Nexus 5X or 6P?

If you had to choose one of them. Any why?

Recently got the Nexus 6 [non P] and I really love it.

 

The screen real estate is very handy, especially since I happen to read papers on it now and then as well as a lot of YouTube on the shitter ^^

None because the S3 is still plenty fast enough for a daily driver.

I have the S5 now. I think the screen size is perfect for my average hands. I guess I could go a little bigger. Might need some reassurance and cuddling afterwards though. That's really my only concern.

as long as the 5x has good battery life, I can overlook the 2gb of ram

I believe the battery life should be pretty good. In comparison, my S5 has good battery life. And the 5X is only 100 mAh less, but with an unadulterated Android OS.

I think the 5X is a bit expensive for its performance level and the 6P is outperformed at the price point by the Samsung S6 which at least where I am is a little cheaper. I don't think either of them is great value when compared to the competition.

Canada Post should drop my 5X off tomorrow!! xD Cant wait! Wanted the 6P but it's way too much money for me and the 5X will do what I need no problem!

The 5X is too little an upgrade over the original Nexus 5.

I would get the 6P.
