I'm in the same boat. I also have the M7 32GB. I am pretty much maxed out on storage. I don't use the cloud for storage either. My decision has come down to the Note 5 or Edge+. G4 is out for me because of the controls/buttons on the back of the phone. My mom has a G3. I messed around with it and it is definitely weird to me. Maybe because I'm a lefty, I dunno, but the rear controls are definitely a no go for me. So that also means the the G4 Pro would also be a no go.
The main thing I am looking for is a damn good camera. S6/S6 edge, Note5 and Edge+ all fit in that category.
With 64GB I should be just fine. Lack of a micro sd slot doesn't matter to me. If worse comes to worse, I could just use the cloud.
With quick charge and "wireless" charging, I'm not too concerned about the 3,000mAh battery in the Note5 or Edge+.
I just can't decide which one to get though. A couple weeks ago I went to Best Buy and held the Note4, Note Edge, S6 & S6 edge. For me, I felt like I had a better grip on the edge versions of those phones. My only question there is, will that good grip feeling be lost when I put a case on it....most likely an Otterbox case?
I know the Note5 will be cheaper.....but I'm not so sure I will really use the S-Pen.
So, for me, coming from the craptastic M7, I really can't go wrong with the Note5 or Edge+. Maybe the new Nexus. But it looks like it might have the rear control/fingerprint scanner too.
I still have a month, until I am eligible to upgrade, to decide.
