I have an iPhone 6 plus, had a Moto X 2014 and had a few Nexus 5s.

I'm very close to pulling the trigger on the Nexus 6 since I've had pretty much every Nexus except the first one.

The Moto X 2014 disappointed me in battery life and camera. Those 2 things also happen to be what most attracted me to the iPhone 6 Plus.
Can anyone comment on the camera and battery compared to the Moto X 2014 and iPhone 6 Plus? Would the Nexus 6 lean more towards the iPhone or the Moto X in terms of battery and camera?

If I can get a better battery and camera from the Nexus 6 than the moto x I'd be satisfied. I don't even need it to be as good as the iPhone just better than the Moto X.

Also outside of size and wireless charging what are the differences between the Moto X and Nexus 6?

Sorry so many questions I have it in my cart and just waiting to pull the trigger!

Hopefully you are able to get your comparative feedback you are looking for to make this decision. In the meantime, have you taken a look at the Nexus 6 review for some insight to your questions related to camera? Nexus 6 Review | Android Central

Let us know how things go.
 
I've owned all three phones, so I have personal experience with each.

In terms of battery life, the N6 is going to fall between the Moto X and 6 Plus. I get through a day with the N6 with no problems, but the battery life on the 6 Plus was much better IMO.

The camera is the same thing, it is going to fall in between the two phones. Good shots in good lighting conditions, but I haven't had the greatest experience in low light.
 
I know it's not the same but I have both the 6 Plus and the Droid Turbo. Battery is pretty close but I get longer life out of my 6 Plus. Standby on the 6 Plus is crazy good. This is a slow week for me since I'm sick and haven't done much with my phone (6 Plus). Off the charger Tuesday around 7 am and right now I'm still at 55%. Camera also goes to the 6 Plus for me. The droid camera tends to hesitate after a pic with HDR on and low-light could be better. My 6 Plus gets my kids much better in their activities than my Turbo does. The iPhone will still produce a blurry photo every now and then but it's better than the Turbo. Plus having photo stream it's nice to be able to share those pics and videos with my wife when she can't be there. Each phone and OS has their advantages and disadvantages and that is why I use both. My Turbo tends to better in my work environment because of the functionality (drag and drop files, treating phone as a flash drive), iPhone does better in my home environment (photo stream, imessage since my kids all have iPods, and sharing music between my wife and I)

I have both the Nexus 6 and Moto X 2014. The Nexus camera is substantially better than the Moto X 2014. Battery life is approximately 50% better for total usage. I charge the X 2014 every 22-24 hours and it is usually at 20%-30%. The Nexus I usually get at least 30-36 hours before it is at 20% or so and I charge it. I do miss active notifications on the Nexus.
 
The nexus 6 is good however I have experienced some suck battery life 2am off charger 10am I am down to 48% life mind you I was sleep from 2am-8:30am but other than that its great
