    trying to decide what phone to get next after my Note 3 and OPO, but not sure if I should grab something now or wait a little while and see what comes out in the next month.

    I think I'm just looking fro something to stop me from getting a Note 5 as I don't like the direction Samsung are going with it and I feel compelled to vote with my feet, but at the same time, I'm not going to NOT buy one if there isn't anything better for me out there.

    essentials:
    >5.5" screen
    good camera
    good battery life
    good performance

    would like, but not essential:
    fast charging
    wireless charging
    splash/waterproofing

    don't like:
    Nexus 6P (too fugly!)

    possible choices:
    Sony Z5 Premium
    OnePlus Two
    Nexus 6
    LG G4
    Note 5
    S6 Edge+

    does anyone have any thoughts, or am i missing something? :)

    There are a few foibles but it has quick charge, wireless charge...

    Hold off a few weeks and see how the Nexus 5X and 6P look.

    The 6P might not look great, but it has dual front facing speakers and a nice 5.7 inch 1440p screen.
    Hopefully the price won't be so premium.

    EDIT: Whoops, just saw you dont like the look of the 6P. Fair enough.

    I sold my Note 3 and settled on the Smart Ultra 6. I must say I'm incredibly happy with it; along with calls/texts/Viber, I tend to stream audio (4-5 hours per day), torrenting & video playing /streaming.

    Same size as Note 3 and does everything the Note 3 could...
