Is the Nexus 6 a good phone for me?

[TrevonH]

I just want a fast, fluid phone, with no lag. I want a nice ultra sharp 5.5"+ display. I need 32GB of storage, good antenna bands for signal, awesome battery life, and a good value. I know the Nexus 6 fits all these traits
I'm coming from the Galaxy S5.

It meets most of those traits. The battery life is decent, but I wouldn't rate it as awesome. The S5 usually gets better from what I've seen. But it does perform better than the S5 otherwise. If you don't mind waiting a few months, there should be a new "Nexus 6". At the very least there will probably be another price drop

If you know the Nexus 6 fits all these traits why did you post this?

I had one for a few weeks and i was not impressed with the screen and had a few apps that were pretty laggy.
Simpsons Tapped out and Sim City Buildit. Those same apps run great on other / lesser devices.
Some people will also say signal reception is not the best on the Nexus 6 ( or 5 or 4) but that also will vary by users location.

I was about to post the same thing lol.

"The Samsung Note 4 has everything I'm looking for in a smartphone, but is it good for me?" (couldn't resist)

It would seem so buddy. It's an awesome phone. It will be relevant for the next 2 years. As an example, the Nexus 4 got the Lollipop update and is still a good phone (for a lot of people) 3 years later. New tech is bringing diminishing returns at this point, unlike a few years ago. Spec bumps don't necessarily mean a good experience. The Nexus 6 is fast enough as is, and with stock android will be a good choice for some time to come provided you like the size. Go for it! Pull the trigger!
