The Google Nexus 5X is one of the best midrange smartphones available on the market, and eBay is now sweetening the deal by offering the device at an attractive discounted price of just $229 (AU$301).

The Nexus 5X is currently priced on Google Store at $349 (AU$459). However, an eBay seller with a positive rating of 99.2 percent is selling the factory unlocked variant of the Nexus 5X, which has a model number of H791, at at least $100 off.

The H791 LG Nexus 5X is an international variant that comes with native 16 GB storage. The device is packaged with an EU charger, and as of this writing, the eBay seller is offering the smartphone in two colours – Carbon Black and Quartz White.

The seller is ready to ship the unlocked Nexus 5X to numerous countries across the world. Customers in Australia will have to spend an additional $28.76 (AU$37.83) for shipping and handling cost to receive the smartphone. In the US, the factory unlocked Nexus 5X will only work on GSM networks like AT&T and T-Mobile and will not support CDMA carriers like Sprint and Verizon.

The LG Nexus 5 that was released in 2013 had received tremendous positive feedback from customers and critics, prompting Google to once again partner with the South Korean company to release the Nexus 5 successor. The LG Nexus 5X with midrange specs was released in the last quarter of 2015.

The Nexus 5X features a 5.2-inch full HD screen. It is powered by Snapdragon 808 SoC and 2 GB of RAM. It is equipped with a 12.3 MP rear camera and a 5 MP selfie shooter. It comes preinstalled with Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS. Other features of the Nexus 5X include a fingerprint scanner, USB Type-C slot and a 2700 mAh battery.
