Best Of

I currently have the Note4 and S7 Edge (on different carriers) due to my needing to be connected in various locations across the country. The battery life on the 7 Edge is quite a bit better than the Note4 due to capacity and lower consumption of the newer parts. I don't know about you but when I have to depend on the 7 Edge I feel like I am missing something as I use the stylus quite a bit every day. On the other hand the camera on the 7 Edge is much faster focusing and substantially better in low light over my Note4. I am still planning on upgrading to the Note7 (aka Note6) when it comes out in about a month. It will have a better camera than both phones I have now as well as a lot more battery than either. I carry a USB powerpack which can charge my Note4 1 1/2 times as I use mine extensively every day as well. I agree with the others as well and thought I would throw some other info out there.

For battery life reasons, I'll recommend Nexus 5X. If screen size is more important, the 6P is wonderful.

Nexus 6p owner here. Great phone. Keeps up with my above average use.

I've been recommending Nexus devices since I got my first one and haven't looked back. Won't qualify for a phone upgrade though. Nexus 6P is a great phone, excellent battery and screen size.

Agree with @Snarkasm otherwise.

Unfortunately, battery and screen are each others' antithesis. The bigger and higher density the screen, the more power is needed to drive it, and the more backlighting is needed to view it. This is one of those scenarios where you might consider a smaller screen, or barring that, some kind of case-integrated extended battery scenario to get the screen size and battery life you want.

Personally, I run with the Nexus 6P, and I love it. Other super highly-rated phones right now are the Samsung S7 and S7 Edge. Those are the big ones of which I know.
