Let's give Sammy credit when credit is due. The Note 4 is superior to the 6 Plus

[Closingracer]

Glad I at least helped influence someone out there

Honestly, after having about 6 different Android phones in the last 2 years, I can easily say the Note 4 is the most complete phone out there. It really combines the best of all worlds....unless you want/need ios.

Most complete? I would argue the nexus 6 is just as good if not better ..

The NeXuS 6, while very nice and the best NeXuS to date lacks a fingerprint scanner, heart rate scanner, SD card, replaceable battery, and other minimal tech. That coupled with regular reports of modest battery life on the NeXuS would lead many to believe that only in the rarest of stretches could it be seen as "better" than a Note 4.

I've auditioned the Nexus and I have a Note 4. That somewhat modest battery life is largely why I don't still have the otherwise great NeXuS 6. Now, if the NeXuS 6's battery was as good or better than say, an iPhone 6+...well...it'd be a huge recommendation and an absolute killer with its dramatic screen and killer stereo front-facing speakers.

I wouldn't call the fingerprint scanner and heart rate sensed features but more of crappy gimmicks . The only fingerprint scanner that works is Apple's iPhone and iPad ones . You get updates faster and a more cleaner look of android as well and from what I've seen of the android 5.0 update for the note 4 so far it's a horrible mess in terms of how to mute your phone which is an article on android central

The benefit of that stock look of NeXuS is purely subjective, as is the benefit of cutting edge updates. I am not alone in disliking stock android and, IME, updates, like Lollipop are absolutely nothing to be excited about. It's a "different strokes" scenario, but as I said, the 6 is the best NeXuS yet. I gotta be honest I love my Note Edge and Note 4 but appreciate that that doesn't mean everyone else should.

I like the extra things that TouchWiz allows us to do in the Note 4. Also, getting the latest updates isn't all that's it's cracked up to be especially having owned a Nexus 4 and 7 and still do. Often the releases are filled with bugs and in the case of the Nexus 7, the 5.0 release slowed the Nexus 7 down so bad. I still don't have Lollipop on my Nexus 7 because I am afraid of what it will do. As for the old Nexus 4 running Lollipop, I've put it away in it's box now and I'll probably never use it again because I have two much better phones running KitKat.

And I do use the pedometer and heart rate monitor every day. I walk several miles at my job every day and I like to see just how much I do walk.

Funny you should mention the finger print scanner on the note 4. While I will admit that the fingerprint scanner on iPhone is superior as you only have to lay your thumb or finger directly on it, the swipe scanner in the note 4 vastly improved. It's clear that Sammy tried to change some of the frustrating aspects of the s5 scanner. It usually only takes me one swipe unless my finger is wet or very very cold.

That remote app actually made my Comcast service usable. The program guide that Comcast has sucks. It displays two channels at a time and then you have to page down. The remote app shows a full screen of channels and you just scroll down to see more. Tap a channel and it changes to that channel on my cable box.

That app is the best thing to happen to phones since the phone was invented,

Press the guide button, the whole screen shows what's on.
