Linas, 16 Nov 2015If you consider that the only important part of the phone is latest OS then you are right, but... moreLol your entire post is laughable, both the 5X and 6P is better than A5 in both specs and clean and fast user interface without any Samsung bloatware or slow updates, and Nexus build quality is good too. Everything else you said is objective and based on personal preference.

Anonymous, 16 Nov 2015So samsung has ignored note 3 completely, no 5.1 lollipop, no marshmallowDude that phone came out late 2013, I wouldn't wait two years to get the latest official update without flashing, let alone three years. It's unfortunate because it still has some killer specs.

AnonD-428442, 16 Nov 2015There is really no point to buy any other Android devices, let alone pay a premium, over a Nex... moreI agree. Sadly too late... I don't know what did I think. Samsung and timely updates, right -_-

when it comes to updates Samsung is the last to choose from... don't get me wrong Samsung is a good brand but they need to change their update policy to appreciate loyal customers

Nexus hardware is appalling.. at the best it is mid ranger like SGS A5, which costs actually less and have more appealing design and features than NEXUS. NEXUS meant to be cheap and straightforward android experience, but currently it pretends to be flagship with substandard hardware and cheap design. I would rather use A5 on Android 4.4.4. (even though 5.0.1 is already available), than use NEXUS which is more expensive and worse phone, but with the latest vanilla Android version. Conclusion - everyone values are different and not everyone are concerned (at all) if the latest android version is available on their phone.

You get what you pay for, I guess.
Is not like the current flagship are not good without the update anyway.

AnonD-296165, 16 Nov 2015So S6, which is the flagship gets it a full month later just because it's released before Note... moreThere is really no point to buy any other Android devices, let alone pay a premium, over a Nexus, unless it is not available in your country. The pricing that companies like Samsung and Sony charge for their phones is ridiculous. Mobile hardware for the last year or two have been good enough across all OEMs that what matters is software. No point in paying extra for less support vs the Nexus.

aceofgenerations, 16 Nov 2015I wish Android manufacturers or heck even Google would support phones for at least up to 3 yea... moreAndroid OEMs generate revenues from selling new hardware. They have zero incentive to support/update older devices.
Google generates revenues from ads. There's really little incentive for Google to do anything (Android is open source and free) as regardless what the OEMs do, the users will still use Google search and services.
The only "incentive" I could think of is if the legal system hold Google and/or any of the OEMs liable for un-patched products if there's a security vulnerability. Sometimes money is what make things go round and round.

Dave, 16 Nov 2015That's BS cause my Note 4 is on 5.1.1 from EE.So whats the problem. I have a note 4 and I am glad that I will get android 6 update. I feel sorry for note 3 owner though. Most note 3 won't even get 5.0 update.
