Funny all of the people recommending phones that haven't read even some of his main requirements. "Has to be Android"...
I would ask what size you would want? Phablets are too big for some, and 5" too small. It doesn't sound like you are too demanding, but want something that works. I would second teh sugestion for one of the two new Nexus phones, and both fit your stated requirements. The Nexus 6P for the 6" size and Nexus 5X for the more managable size. Both get great reviews and are first in line to get the most recent updates. Plus, zero bloatware. None, nada, zilch. They are relatively cheap off-contract as well. |

My galaxy 6 edge is the coolest phone I've ever used, but the battery life leaves more to be desired. I'm a heavy user so I would assume I'd have this problem with most phones, but sometimes it just sits there and dies faster than when I'm even really using it. . . I think its a 4g/3g radio issue.
When I'm overseas it works absolutely fine, which is extremely weird, when its switching between 1x and 3g (I don't tend to get 4g much internationally). I think in the US you NEED 4g to use a lot of the apps now so it just hangs and F***s itself. PS Verizon is my network, it could easily be software/bloatware on their end, as they have actually "removed" the 3g/4g switch toggle that is supposed to come on the phone. I don't need 4g unless I really want it, I'd rather it sat there in 3g and then woke up to 4g when I was using something data intensive, but the damn apps seemingly don't even work in 3g.

LG G4 gets my vote if you want a removeable battery and expandable memory. If those things dont matter to you, the S6 is a nice phone as well.
The G4 has stood up to much more abuse than my Samsungs ever did. Havent had a case on it or screen protector and after 100s of drops and hits and smashes, the screen has just finally cracked in the corner, but it is almost unnoticeable. My S5 broke within the 1st month of having it and my work Iphone 6 broke when i looked at it wrong within the 1st week. |

The Samsung S5 and Note 4 work really well in my car. can even read emails etc ... all via bluetooth.
I prefer this, to plugging the phone in and out each time via the snap in adapter or usb port. |

It's too expensive but I just got my hands on a Blackberry Priv. Dear lordy me, THIS is a phone. Runs Android but with Blackberries utterly brilliant HUB that controls all your communications (email, texts, etc etc etc) plus it has REAL keys and a full size screen a sit is a slide phone.
Brilliant but $$$. |
