    Buying new phone - what to choose!?

    Aight, so i'm about to buy a new phone tomorrow but i can decide what to buy..
    And i'm not really That in to phones so someone here might be able to help me!

    Atm, i have an Iphone 5S.
    I have been using Iphone since the 3 came out.

    But now, i realize that Iphone has a really shitty camera etc for being a so new phone compared to many other brands!
    and i also don't have an imac anymore (i use PC now.)

    So, what to chose?

    Two be fair, your current phone is two years old.

    Also, I suggest not buying a phone tomorrow just because you can.
    Figure out what you use your phone for then research models that fit your needs.

    In my experience, the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ is the best phone currently. It is one of the few phones I have zero complaints about. I owned the S6 Edge (non-plus) on day one of sale in the US. It was brilliant aside from the smallish screen. The + version is not much bigger but there are no real flaws I can point to in operation.

    It has worked flawlessly. I am a HEAVY user and use the same device for work and personal activity.

    6s benchmarks.

    Can't find a thread with good photos of the tables themselves, but it seems to be the 6S smoking everything else in single core, and then beasting in multicore (but only has two cores, so this number may be wonky compared to android offerings)

    I've heard that's a good phone! Also cheaper than 6 plus!

    Wait 3 months, buy Nexus 5x/6p or get a new iPhone in my opinion. Nexus is stock Android so none of the trash bloatware that comes on half the Android phones and they're first to be updated (whereas some phones never get updated). The new Nexus's are looking to get some additional features (laser focusing, fingerprint unlock, etc it seems) and Android Marshmallow.

    You could also go the super cheap route and buy a ~$200 phone (eg. Xiaomi, MotoX, etc). Depends on your usage I guess.
