We've noticed some UI lag and random reboots but there are plenty of other problems plaguing the Nexus 5X Android O update right now. Nexus 5X users are complaining about installation issues, weird battery loss, problems with speakers, issues with Wi-Fi, problems connecting to Bluetooth devices, issues with various third-party apps and services including crashes, and lockups and freezes. Google's keeping a running list of issues on the Android O beta and we expect complaints to pickup as more people decide to install the Android O beta onto their Nexus 5X. This is what you're getting yourself into if and when you decide to install the Android O beta on your phone. Problems can occur at anytime.

Gmail never worked for my Nexus 5x, (open and crush) when android beta installed. After resetting the device, could not boot and was restarting continuously. Thank God is still under warranty and just dropped it off to the retailer.

My device became so slow I had to downgrade out of it. Which wipes your phone by the way. It has some pretty cool features but my 5x was struggling. Web browsing was extremely slow. And cycling between open apps usually involved the wrong app opening. Many apps were sluggish as well. Don’t recommend using the beta.

I understand from what I’ve read in XDA Developer forum that the objective was to quickly boot Android O (say 15 secs) and the change in the odex files takes place in the background gradually. Hence, when you install O it will be very slow and there will be problems with the smoothness while changing or starting apps. However, in one or two days it will stabilize. Hence, if you want to try O be prepared to hang around on it for at least 2 days before giving up. Try it on the weekend maybe. Battery life from most sources seems to give 2 hours screen on time (SOT).
