I used to buy this theory for a long time until I got my Nexus 5x. It has a lot of bugs. I actually miss the very polished feel of my Sony Z3 compact. Low ui tweaks, super dependable. It's a shame I hear Sony might be stopping its phone line, or maybe that's just a rumor.

Care to share what bugs you have / had on your 5x?

I've had my 5x for months and only come across a couple of bugs, a couple of times- but they happened once and weren't reproducible.

- I also regularly have to kill apps and restart them because they don't properly detect internet connectivity. I think this is actually due to people not testing apps against the new Doze functionality, which isn't Google's fault but definitely isn't the greatest user experience. - The camera software/drivers are really slow and crash regularly. - I get random spinners on videos that don't go away sometimes.
