Super-snappy Android for less than $100? Grab this refurbished Nexus 5X!

The Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P were the last smartphones of the Nexus family, before the Google Pixel line took over. The concept behind every Nexus device was pretty simple — offer flagship specs and the pure, “by Google” Android experience with timely updates and a guarantee of a good performance.

The Nexus 5X, despite having an unassuming plastic shell and being a 2015 model, currently runs Android 8.1 Oreo without a hitch. Its camera may not be on the level of the Pixels, but it's still pretty good thanks to its own support for Google's HDR+ technology. Unfortunately, it won't be getting any more major Android updates — the Nexus 5X stops at Oreo. But it will still get some monthly security patches up until at least November of this year.

What we have here is a listing for some refurbished (at authorized facility) Nexus 5X units. For $90 — that's pretty much a steal. You can use it as a burner phone, a reliable backup, or just to see what “vanilla” Android is supposed to look and feel like, if you haven't had the pleasure.
