The Nexus 6 from Motorola has now been presented to the world and the sale begins in early November. High time that there is concern as to whether you will access the huge Motorola phablet -. Or perhaps rather for Samsung Galaxy Note 4, the latest version of the phablet flagship par
Many points have to be considered be in this duel: Both devices are high-end smartphones and the fact that the Nexus has 6 with $ 649 also attracted priced compared to previous Nexus models, it is really a duel on equal terms. Let’s look at the specifications before we consider other factors:
Specifications Nexus 6:
5.96-inch QHD (2560x1440p) display (493 ppi)
2.7 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon Adreno 420 GPU 805 processor

Design and build quality
This is the area where it usually still is easiest to surpass Samsung. Almost every other major manufacturer is to build in a position to better processed devices than do the Koreans. The Galaxy Note 4 looks great, but does not feel so high like the Nexus 6, which is based on the outstanding processed Moto X
Clear -. Because it is the design language also a matter of taste is, some will also prefer the Galaxy Note 4 to this point, which can at least come up with an aluminum frame. Samsung has nevertheless been able to improve the design compared to the Galaxy S5. Light is ahead for our taste yet the Nexus 6 due to better processing by Motorola.
The displays in the comparison:
The size of the display it is also about personal preference: With 5.96-inch screen, the Nexus 6-Panel is a little larger than the 5.7-inch display in Note 4 – of which from the two, however, are quite similar
Both rely on an AMOLED qHD display -. that is, with a resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels. This of course means that the smaller Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (who would have thought that a Galaxy Note would ever call a “smaller” Device) can show the higher pixel density in this case. The pixels are on the music 4 a little compressed, which makes images look a little clearer -. The bottom line but can not detect a big difference
Performance and Software
Both devices come with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805, wherein it also alternatively in some regions are the Octacore SoC of the Samsung Exynos device. Adjusting these processors 3 GB RAM on the side and you get super-fast and powerful phablets -. Just as it is both the Nexus 6 as well as the Galaxy Touch 4 case
The main differences here are more likely in the software The Nexus 6 comes with the naked Android experience, which scores points by the simpler, uncluttered UI. Samsung on the other hand provides for its highly customized UI a bunch of additional features, in which, however, the sets or other whether they should really be.
But also differ by the Android version of the two devices: the Nexus 6 course comes with Android 5.0 Lollipop, while the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 still be content with Android 4.4.4 KitKat must take , We know that the update will come when Samsung phablet, but that will take a while
Camera.
This point must we save until we both cameras one could test themselves extensively. Samsung might not installed the camera technology, but always offers superior technology for great photos, while Motorola is not exactly known for great cams now.
battery life
As for the battery, we can assure you that both are pretty much on par. They come with similar displays and chipsets, also offer similar great battery. A small advantage could be the Nexus 6 have in this discipline, because the UI is not as inflated as Samsung and consuming less resources.
However, if you want to absolutely find a replaceable battery in the device, the Samsung scores Galaxy Note 4, which has as one as one of ever decreasing number of devices on the market.
What you will buy you?
As mentioned earlier, it is a difficult decision for that reason alone, because they are priced so close together. Google has the price for the Nexus previously always subsidized and thus made extremely low, so the choice so far very easily fell to a Google smartphone.
This time it really goes almost exclusively to personal preference. Both are great phablets class, so you have to deal with it in detail what points are a really important when considering buying. Will you prefer the pure Google experience and fleet updates, or rather lots of additional software features, such as Samsung offers?
And do not forget: Samsung is also working on accessories, wearables and IoT gadgets (sometimes exclusively) work mostly with best Samsung smartphones. Do you want to say for example a Gear VR or another Samsung device, your choice is also at the phablets perhaps rather to Samsung.
But if the benefits of the new Android features under Lollipop also appreciates how the brisk updates and the uncluttered UI, which should feel much more comfortable when Nexus 6. What say you? What is the unit of your choice
