Likely hood that the Nexus 5X will have always on listening ?

Do you think we will see always on listening for voice commands in the upcoming Nexus 5x similar to the Moto X ?

I've hard that the Snapdragon 808 does have a DSP to pull this off. Just curious if Google will likely implement it now that iPhone 6s has this feature with 'Hey Siri'.

This is what I loved about the Note 4. I could say "Okay Google" even when the screen is locked and not charging. With my S6 edge, it has to be charging when on the lock screen for commands to works.

I thought the nexus 6 had this feature already.

AFAIK, Google has already implemented this for phones that support it. The Nexus 6 had this feature at release last year.
