So I am planning of getting a new phone in a few months,
So far, I have two phones I am considering: iPhone 6, and Google Nexus (5, 6, 7, 9 I'm not sure what the numbers mean)
Any other phone recommendations are welcome (I currently have a Samsung gs3, but would like to try another brand)
For people who already own these phones, can you post specs/your opinion of that phone?
I mostly want to know:
Processor speed
Screen resolution
Camera MP (includes frame rate for videos)
Battery
Operating System (I know iPhone 6 runs iOS 8; This question is for Google Nexus)
Thanks

I know you didn't list it but MotoX is great! Republic wireless is fantastic!

Sometimes trying something new becomes old, quickly. If you were happy with your S3, then I suggest the S5. By far the best phone I have owned.

My S3 is starting to lag and crash/freeze and cause errors (example: *clicks home button once* then S Voice starts; *open multi tasking bar to close apps* "No recent apps")
Its not because I don't like Samsung, its because I want to try another brand.

If you are looking for a mid ranged Android phone then I recommend you to buy the Samsung galaxy grand prime, which is a new phone. It can play Al very well.

just disable google now and voila! No lag... i have a s2 and damn its still going strong! i do have a note 4 and a s4 aswell but i prefer s2 @@ swapped the battery 3 times @@ the phone is just awesome.. 'google now' makes your phone lag a bit as it turns on when you click home button twice... so just disable it from settings..

Honestly the battery on iPhone sucks. The only reason I got it is because I've been an apple user for so long, like idk how to function android. Plus most of my friends have iPhones so it's nice to use iMessage and FaceTime and all that.
Otherwise I think Samsung G5 is better. Oh lg G3! I was between those phones when I was buying a new one :)
I have iPhone 5s but my friend has the 6 and she complained about battery too versus the Samsung s5 she used to own.
