Google went too far last year with the Nexus 6 and its 5.9-inch screen. This year, alongside the Nexus 5X, the company also announced the Nexus 6P.
Designed by Huawei -- it's the company's first time building a Nexus phone for Google -- the Nexus 6P's screen is a little smaller at 5.7-inches so it should be just a little bit easier to pocket.
With a starting price of $499 for the 32GB model, the phone's very reasonably priced for all the performance it has. If a big HUGE smartphone doesn't bother you, the Nexus 6P looks like a worthwhile device to consider.
You can take a look at the comparison chart below between the Nexus 6P and the iPhone 6S Plus, Samsung Galaxy Note 5/S6 Edge+, Sony Xperia Z5 Premium, Moto X Style/Pure Edition and LG G4 and make a judgment on which one is the best for you.
