What would be a good Android upgrade for an iPhone 6s?

My 6s I have had for the past 3 and a half or so years is starting to feel it’s age, where I’m really feeling the processor and ram chug and the battery is a joke. I’m looking for a new phone preferably on android that’ll last me a few years at least. I don’t have a set budget but more-so looking for value. I’m on Verizon. Thanks for any help.

Was lookin at that with it being on a good sale (469 with a case and earbuds) and 10% more off being a student but will that be enough of a upgrade from the 6s to be noticeable?

It's a flagship from late 2018. You'll be getting a huge battery, and fast performance. Stock Android too, in case you like that.

 

Plus, under-screen fingerprint sensor. It's quite a good deal.

I would say go for the 7 pro not the 6t, more expensive but if you want a phone thats going to last years it will give you an extra year of updates over the 6t. Plus it has the 90Hz screen, pop up front camera and the triple camera set up on the rear

Being a 7 pro owner myself, I can say the 90hz screen is a life changer, because I also came from a iPhone 6s. The jump to a bigger screen and much faster charging is great as well, but there are some features about the phone that aren't so great. The front facing camera I find to be a bit on the soft side, especially when I take a picture using it. It comes out as if there's a default beauty effect, which I have no idea how to remove, and if it is even possible to remove it. As well as the flash, oh boy the flash. It's a great try to doing a non-led or actual physical light, but I find in dark situations the flash overbrightens your face and the picture ends up more of a white hue rather than your actual skin pigment tone. The zoom on the rear-facing camera is not so great, considering in a well-lit living room, a water bottle case about 10 feet away, at full zoom looks just plain horrible. The fingerprint sensor is lack-luster as well, and I don't like the fact that you need to press the power button to be able to use the face recognition, rather than the double tap gesture, which only brings the screen to a black hue and the fingerprint sensor.
