Surprisingly, in my opinion I felt the 6P pictures looked much better than the Note 5. This shouldn't come as a surprise, but I feel the 6P is a far better buy. The Nexus 6P is possibly the best Android device of 2015.

I don't know why I keep watching these, I've had the Note 5 since launch and am happy with it.

The note 5 has 4GB of RAM, not 3GB

I think both are great devices... I have and really enjoy the note 5. I don't think I can move away from Samsung Pay, and the Spen. Otherwise, I really like the nexus and it's layout. Toughwiz however imo is not a detriment anymore to the samsung phones. I like some of touchwiz features, and there is not any lag that has previously been associated with it.

Somehow I knew you'd completely gloss over the bad ram management on the Note 5. I own both and I can have over twice as many apps open on my Nexus 6p without them reloading. It makes a huge difference in the user experience.

200 dollars difference is a big difference

These are the reasons that I got stuck with Note4.
1- S-Pen, Very useful for selecting texts even in areas that you're not allowed to(like YouTube comments). Plus whenever I wanna show someone a math solution, I use the pen in S-Note.
2- Ultra-Power-Saving. Many times I've been out of town and no access to a charger. I was able to use my phone for almost a week no problem. It would go even further if I didn't get back home.
3- TV-Remote: Very useful every night that I lose the remotes.
4- Removable battery and SD card. This is the reason I didn't upgrade to Note 5 yet. Waiting for Note 6.
5- Private-Mode: I don't trust the third party apps to hide my data and images in them.

And a lot more options and details in the settings.

Getting the nexus 6p because HTC took away my dual speakers and I want basic android.

I was testing a Samsung note 4 up till a few days ago but I picked up the 6p and omg... SO MANY THINGS I LOVE the screen is gorgeous it has so much more room for apps on the screen no Flipboard thank goodness it's buttery smooth the speakers are where they belong (wasn't sure how much of a difference it would make but it is quite noticeable) also the interface is beautiful .... anyways I am super happy with it and not surprised why the friends that recommended it gushed about it.

I hardly consider phones nowadays that don't have front facing speakers. Front facing speakers are amazing for me personally cause I watch media and listen to music ALL the time on my phone.

My design tips (Google, are you getting this?):
Put the fingerprint scan on the back.
Put the minijack on the bottom.
That way, it goes the right way (bottom up) in the pocket, and allows hitting the fingerprint scan while grabbing the phone, while the headphone cable is facing upwards.
Nexus 5x - Got it.
6p fail.
Note 5: How does it feel grabbing the scanner by the thumb and unlocking while reaching for the phone? Any experiences?

Sounds like small stuff (and it is), but I love my LG G2 layout so much, I really see it as a (rather) big deal.
