I Need A New Phone...Help?

[member="Seraphina Shel'tah"]

Solid choice.

I did forget to mention the Nexus 6 is the only one with front facing speakers besides the One.

As for the software on the Nexus 6, it comes bare bones. You get about half of Google's basic (AOSP or AOSP-based) apps, and that's it. You can unlock, root, and install new software to do just about anything. But, that's just about anything, not an unqualified anything. That is one reason the Note 4 stands out above the other phablets. Samsung did a really good job optimizing the software for phablets in its Note series, while others, including Google/Motorola, just popped in the phone software on a larger device. If you unlock and root a device, you can pull software exclusive to other device ecosystems with a pretty high success rate. For example, I can run Blinkfeed on any device, despite it being pre-installed on the HTC One and unavailable in the play store. Any exclusive app worth running has been pulled and packaged as an APK somewhere on XDA Developer Forums. The Samsung software from the Note would be the exception, since some of it is simply incompatible with other devices.

Anyway, tl; dr--you made an educated choice after trying them all, and if you are looking for a phablet, I think you made the best choice.

Thanks! :) Yea I am not that skilled to unlock phones and do all that haha. I spent a long time setting up my Note the way I wanted it, I can't even imagine how much longer it would have taken me to learn how to do that on top of finding what I wanted. It makes me dizzy just thinking about it lol
