Need a device for a few months - would the M8 be ok it get the S6?

Hi, not see if anyone can help. I'm after a device to tie me over for the next few months. I've been liking st this M8 but as it came out 2 years ago, would it start to go slow. I've also looked at the s6 but not too keen on touchwiz and I've heard it lags. But I found the camera to be better than the m8 and more comfy to hold?

Just wondered what would people go for, the M8 or the S6?

The M8 is still fast and smooth. I still use mine quite often and it isn't much different from the day I bought it. Probably quite cheap now.

Thanks. I was worried about app loading and browsing speed also given the time it's been around? Also is it bulky to hold?

App loading and browsing is pretty sharp, to the naked eye it seems as quick as my Z5. I actually love the feel of the M8, so much so that I use it without a case (which probably explains why mine seems slightly warped !). I suppose it could seem bulky to some though and it is slippery sans case. I haven't actually dropped mine, but there have been numerous occasions when it's tested my reactions.

Why not a Nexus 5X?
