At that price point and size i still think the Nexus 7 2013 its the best choice, it might not be the powerhouse it once was but still..

you can find them for 150 or less, it has lollipop, and rumours are that its bound to get Android M

the other choice is search for a used Nexus 9 or a Shield tablet if you can put a little more money

I know this has probably been asked before but I've finally caved in and decided to get my first smartphone. Now I'm in a bit of a pickle...

LG G4 or Samsung Galaxy S6?

I hear good things about both of them but can't decide since I'm totally newb to the smartphone stuff. I'm currently leaning towards LG (a bit cheaper, larger screen, newer Android although a bit worse processor).

I would lean towards LG unless you decide to the S6 Edge. Better battery life (not by a lot, but still) and cheaper. LG software isn't so bad either

Can't speak for the G4 but the Galaxy S6 comes with a lot of ridiculous bloatware that you can't uninstall, only disable. Quite frankly I think it's unacceptable for a flagship phone.

If you get an unbranded version they've actually toned down the bloatware by an impressive amount, and you can just hide/disable the remaining ones so they never bother you.

Both the G4 and S6 are great phones and the best way to pick between them is to go into a store and try each of them out. The buttons on the back of the G4 are a feature you'll either love or hate.

I would wait a few months and see how does the Nexus 5 and the Moto Force comes out or maybe look at the X2015 or One Plus 2

The LG sounds great tho, but i just cant go back to non pure android phones...

And by the way, the lower cpu its just meh, my X2014 still handles everything lighting fast and without any lag, its an Snapdragon 801, at this point i think theres not much difference between cpus anymore, all of them are plenty fast... I went from a Moto G to the Moto X and in terms of speed the difference was pretty negligible.

Between the LG & Samsung right now, I'd go with the $350 moto nexus 6.

In real world performance even the old Nexus 5 its fast enough, all those amazing test means nothing if you are only going to use it for web surfing, fb, whatsapp/hangout, etc...

obviously not the kind of website one would go to everyday but it shows that there are websites where it's gonna get slow on mobile phones
