I didn't have any issues with accuracy on the other phones... once they established satellite lock, they were all pretty much as spot on. My issues were always related to how quickly they could get that lock and how tenacious they were in holding on to it. I use Waze on my commute and with the SIII and Nexus 5, it would take a little bit of time to finally get position, and it would drop out on my drive... the Nexus 5, in particular, would lose lock and I'd have to hold the phone up to the window a bit to get it back. The SIII was often unreliable as well... The G3 wasn't too bad... but the Nexus 6 has been the best performer.
The Nexus 6, it would get lock pretty much as soon as the Waze app would finish initializing and it would hold it steady while sitting there on the passenger's seat. And it also does a pretty good job of getting a lock even in conditions where GPS often has issues, such as indoors. I can only assume that to mean the GPS receiver is a lot more sensitive than the other phones.
