Should I buy the Moto X Play or the Nexus 6?

[Grobi93]

Hey!
I'm looking to buy a new Android device which is running on stock Android. I've found two potential models, the Nexus 6 and the X Play. The N6 boasts a more capable hardware of course, but the X Play is a little cheaper and has a more managable size. Isn't the N6 too big? Does it fit in one's pocket? Or should I get something else? What do you think? Thanks!

The X Play is not stock Android, though not far from it.

Well, I guess that is technically true, but I consider Motorola's version "stock" as well.
So a phone with "stock" android, at least a 5 - 5.2 inch screen, decent camera, decent build quality, minimal stutter / lag while using the phone / multitasking. I mostly use my phones for browsing the web, viewing youtube videos, listening to music with deezer, and to play some not so demanding games (like Angry Birds, Temple Run, Run Sheldon, Fruit Ninja, Aliens Drive Me Crazy and well, games similar to these). Occasionally I'll read some pdf and doc files as well.

I would go with the Nexus 6. Moto has started to stumble a little with device updates.
