Going after some basic aero might be more productive... Such as fixing your hood latching, under body aero, chin spoiler, etc.

All I want is a phone with no front facing button, mid to top tier specs and around 5-5.3' inches, but that seems like it's too much to ask.

Pretty much what I want/ed but with a decent camera and a close to stock Android OS without the overlay OS (i.e. HTC, LG, Samsung etc...). So I picked up the Droid Turbo and well I hate it...camera sucks, battery life is ok and Verizon has yet to release Android Marshmallow and doubt they will so I'm stuck on 5.1.1. So in the coming months I will hopefully pick up something better and probably change service providers.

The 'Droid' line is probably the worst 'Flagship' line out there. I had a Droid Charge or some **** like that and I absolutely hated it. **** interface, **** performance. Slowed down immensely after a few days of use.

I have always been really happy with the Nexus 5, especially the design. I hated the direction of the 5X, so I kinda want to see what Google does this year.

I agree on wanting a really good camera, which is lumped into the 'good to top tier specs' for me.

I thought about getting the Xperia Z5 since it's been out for a few months, but people seem to have issues with it.

What don't you like about the 5X? I had my dad get one and it's like my 6P just smaller and lighter weight.

I never liked the way it looked. It looked weird and I wasn't a fan of the specs and I felt like there wasn't much change in that department for me to essentially get the same phone as before.

Google Nexus 5X vs Google Nexus 5 - Phone specs comparison

Also, the phone got 'bigger' but the screen space reduced which kinda is a head scratcher.

Are you gonna be at the DM anniversary? I wanna play with a 6P and I'd like to check yours out.
