Moto X play vs Nexus 5X

Sorry if this is the wrong forum, there are so many forums here it's hard to know whether it's the right one or not.
I am deliberating over which of the two devices I should buy, the newly announced Nexus 5X or the Moto X play.
Ever since it was announced, the Moto X seemed like a very good choice, as it has a very big battery, an sd card slot, active display (I just really really love it), and Motorola is trustworthy when it comes to system updates.

I am of course waiting for reviews before knowing which one to buy, I'll be waiting a few months before making that decision.

Basically I use my phone for messaging, some web surfing, little bit of social media. I rarely play games, and never the heavy ones (don't really find the appeal). Most of the time my phone is idle (see no reason for using it if I am near a computer for example or have no one to message with). For those reasons I am not buying some huge phone (like the Nexus 6P or a Galaxy note), I just have no interest in watching movies on my phones or playing heavy games. Also, one of the things that really annoys me with the Nexus 4 is the fact that my battery is dropping too quickly even when idle (for example, 8-9% over night, and I don't have anything open, not 3G, not WIFI, not location, etc.).

My important points for the two phones:

• Processor - 808 on the Nexus vs 615 on the Moto X. Which one is better for battery?


• Battery - 3630mAh for the Moto X compared to 2700mAh for the Nexus - Moto X wins here.


• The sensor hub on the Nexus - sounds very promising, and really appealing to someone like me that used his proximity sensor on the Nexus 4 to unlock the phone and avoid pressing the power button.
  If I understood correctly, you can just pick up the phone and it's ambient display will turn on. For me it's simply amazing. While Motorola's active display is also amazing (I used it a lot through other roms and apps) it doesn't have that capability.


• 5.2' on the Nexus vs 5.5' on the Moto X. I prefer smaller screens so the Nexus here wins.


• The Nexus weighs less, that's better.


• SD card slot in Moto X only.


• The Moto X is missing **a lot** of sensors - including gyroscope and compass which are pretty much basic nowadays.


• The Nexus 5X has a fingerprint sensor.


• 21 MP on the Moto X where the Nexus has 12 MP, though I know it depends on the sensor really, and not just the size of mega pixels. Would love some comments on that.


• The Nexus has BT version 4.2 compared to to version 4.0 on the Moto X. Does it really matter?


• USB type C on the Nexus. A luxury, but still.


• The price! The Moto X seems to be cheaper than the Nexus 5X (and i I will purchase the Nexus, I will buy the 32GB version).

Just by writing this list I realize that the Nexus 5X could be way better, but I am concerned about battery, mostly. Would love your comments mainly on the first item on the list and the camera, but your opinions as well about everything else. I would prefer to see if I missed anything before making this decision.

Thank you.
