Upgrading phones tomorrow. Am able to select phones for my wife and I out of the following, and I am having trouble choosing. It has been left up to me. She is a casual user, who uses facebook and native browsers for pinterest. I work long hours, and appreciate video playback/streaming, a few games, music, wearables, and trying out new apps. I also like to integrate wearables for fitness and convenience.
We both prefer not to use iPhones.
The contenders:
-Samsung Galaxy S5 (S5 neo and S4 included; ignored for obvious hardware reasons)
-LG G4 (and G3. As above)
-Nexus 5X
-Motorola Moto G (3rd Gen) and Moto X Play
-HTC Desire 626s
-ZTE Grand x2
-Sony Xperia M4 aqua and Z3
After this it devolves into flip phones, manufacturers I've never heard of, and shitty "junior" versions of flagships.
There are other options, but they are cost-prohibitive or not completely free. I am willing to pay a bit for MY phone, but my wife's use doesn't make sense to shell out for a Note 4, S6 Edge, etc.
I will possibly root, and CERTAINLY remove as much bloatware as I can. Would e neat to get two exact same phones and see how much more sluggish wife's is after six hours or six months of use.
>not fixing up your wife's phone so she can use it better
I hope she leaves you desu

I offered to root hers, or at least get rid of touchwiz. She's currently got a Galaxy S4, but doesn't want me to do anything that might "screw up her pictures". I've literally already backed up every file, photo, and inane pinterest pin she has to OneDrive, Google Drive, and two separate physical drives. She said she's fine sticking with hers, but wouldn't mind a new one.
Women.

If she's fine with what she has why waste the money? Consumer whore.

Go with the LG G4 is the best bang for the buck atm

The handsets are free, and mine is in need of an upgrade. Call me a consumer whore, but I'm also switching to a BETTER plan that will save me $450 per year.
Nexus or nothing. Fuck bloat, slow updates, etc.
