Slayer, 23 Feb 2015Comments such as better camera, flat back are just for the ... moreOkay. The Nexus 6 is the best phone for you and the Note 4 is the best phone for the rest of the world. Case closed. The Note 4 is so good that it is the only flagship phone that is worth its high asking price right now. Fact.

          Slayer, 23 Feb 2015Comments such as better camera, flat back are just for the ... moreWrong. Better camera is for kindergarden??? LOLOLOL...The flat back thing is more preference.
          However I like how you illude the factual side of things only to boast on that one aspect.
          And then try and turn something factual around as childish. Haha.
          Better camera is kindergarten? Nice try. Better camera is a better camera. End of story. You can be content with what you have and all fine and dandy. But a better functioning camera is just that. Just like battery and display. As well as overall functionality. And multiple aspects of the Note 4.

          And then you try to take your curved back theory into build qualtiy? Implying the Note is of bad or lesser build quality? That's cute.
          Add that into you implication of prefering design over function, disliking of their software/better hardware/denial of advantages/and raging in this thread....
          Beleive it or not....You the hurt fanboy here. You are not just simply defending your preference. You are raging and misleading in hurt fanboy denial.

            Slayer, 22 Feb 2015Such misplaced arrogance or should that be ignorance! Wheth... moreYou're the one with misplaced arrogance/ignorance here.

            Whether a phone is best for you is personal preference.
            Whether a phone has objective leads and advantages is objective fact.
            You obviously care more about design by your owm implications. Though most would find the new metal frame of the Note 4 ones of the nicest looking frames.

            All phones have extra sodtware IE unesseccay bloat. Even the Nexus

            And if you would read most "meaning not all" of the comments most of the fanboy comments and denial are from people in delusion of the fact the Note 4 objectively won here. Not the other way around as you would make it seem.
            You talk a lot about preference and fanboys, but you sure come in here passing the blame onto others a lot while being in complete denial of the facts.

                      Better battery, display, camera,functionality ,performance...of Note 4 are not subject of "personal taste"- but FACT. Nexus 6 should not be in a same article with Note 4 even.
                      Bet on, that you are not Android user, but pretending to be. Old dirty trick. LOL
                      P.S.
                      BTW different ppl can disable different functions on Note 4. That's personal taste. So the "bloat,gimmicky" BS comment, doesn't work too.

You haven't come on here just to bum up the nexus, just to try and stop people buying samsung phones, with some of your colleague's answering your leading posts, have you. The whole stance of the write up points to one ofthe seemingly apple implanted authers, with some like you following thier lead, and with one of your totally unecessary sentences pointing the way, you may be one of tims best pals.

The camera on the Nexus 6 is just fine by me and as for the curved back, I love it. Feel the build quality instead. Enjoy your preference and get the hell off my cloud and let me enjoy mine. Opinions are like a certain orifice, every one has one but I will be damned if I would let you dictate my preferences. Each to their own is my point and respect that not everyone blindly follows popular opinion. If they did, the whole world would be using an iFruit!

QED, you just proved my point assuming because you want those things I must too. I wish you guys would listen to yourselves.

Having better screen accuracy is not bloatware. Having a removable battery is not bloatware. Having an infrared remote controller is not bloatware. Having a flat back so it doesn't wobble while typing is not bloatware. Having it being able to fit in a regular pocket is not bloatware. Having a better camera is not bloatware.

                                  Almost everything above needs software to run. And you call them bloatware? I call them features and better design.

Whether a phone is the best or not is down to personal taste and preferences. My daily driver is a Nexus 6, after going through a plethora of feature packed phone like the S5 etc. Most of the features are gimmicky at best and a complete nonsense which personally, I see as nothing more than unnecessary bloat ware. You love it great but do not make sweeping statements. Never even considered the Note 4 and likely to pass on the S6! Likely wait for the G4, HTC One M9 Plus or Z4! Not unconscious bias against Samsung, just that from my point of view, there is simply such a lack of imagination and underwhelming blandness in the design of their phones these day that they aren't worth my attention!
