Hi All,
I've had my Idol 3 for about a year and I'm thinking of upgrading in about 6 mos. to a year. After my so-so experience with the Idol 3 (lag and stutter issues were present right up to last week's Marshmallow Update and the build quality is er... Interesting...) the Idol 4 & 4S are off the table. Honestly, I would want something with a Qualcomm 800-series 64-bit SOC (808, 810, 820, etc.) with at least 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage.
I am a fan of the Idol 3's form factor and would be looking to stay in 5.5in-5.7in screen size (Phablet, if you prefer the term) with a 1080p or 1440p screen and I'm curious about switching to AMOLED (I've only had IPS LCD up to this point). I heard some good things, but frankly, I'm not a Samsung Galaxy fan (not to mention Samsungs are a little too expensive for my taste) so the S7 Edge, Note5, and S6 Edge+ aren't really viable options either.
I'm looking for a stock or stock-ish (Cyanogen or OxygenOS for example) build of Android. Rootability, solid development community, and OEM support are a must. It would be great (but not necessary) if there was also an official Android N Update as well. Hardware options should include a good Camera, Fingerprint Scanner, and NFC (optionally, SD card support and/or Front Facing Stereo speakers).
I'm looking to spend about $400-$600 and would like to get a phone 6 mos. to a year old by the time of purchase (gives early bugs time to be worked out). My current selections are Nexus 6P, Oneplus 3, and Moto X Pure Edition.
Thoughts?
