Now On Tap summons up information relevant to whatever you are looking at on-screen [GOOGLE]. Newer versions of Android increasing battery life is a hoax, so depending on software optimisation is futile.

Let’s say you’re talking to a friend and the two of you decide to meet at a restaurant, that’s when the Now On Tap comes in a provides a Maps card with the location of one. Or if you don’t have any special requirements, such as iMessage or Google Now, which is the better phone for you?

In terms of performance, the phone felt zippy and handled switching between apps well.

Fortunately all that is about to change with 6.0 Marshmallow. This means, it does everything that a smartphone is supposed to do, but it does so in the way Apple wants.

Those phones, the Nexus 4 in particular released at a time when the only other phones on the market were the overpriced iPhones and the Samsung Galaxies.

Optional, but recommended: Once you have a custom recovery installed on your Nexus 5X, it is highly recommended to create a Nandroid backup of your current OS so you can easily move back to it if things don’t work out. The latest system brings native support to fingerprint scanning, and enhance security features.

As you might expect, the company describes it as the “most polished” version of Android to date. That is, rarely used apps will be disable most easily by it. And there is an option to whitelist apps to prevent them from implementation of this feature.
