Best Android Phone

Hello people of the internet,

My family is probably going to switch phone providers because Verizon is to expensive. When we switch, we get new phones and I would like to know which one is the overall best choice. Note: We are going to T-Mobile or AT&T. I am looking at the LG G3, Nexus 6, Moto X, and the Note 4.

But, if I am missing a great android phone on this list please tell me because I want the best one. Thanks for the help!

OnePlus One. It's unlocked and comes preloaded with CyanogenMod.

Out of the four, get the Note 4. It's the best device there.

 

Consider the OnePlus One if you can get your hands on one or the HTC One M8 if you care immensely about build quality though.

The only way you can get it is via an invite or drawing :(

I had an invite, but I already gave it away. Sorry. :(

I would say one plus one or the moto X 2nd gen. However the droid turbo is looking good.

Nexus 6 is the best pure Android phone, Moto X 2nd gen is also an excellent device. The Nexus would be my choice of the phones you listed. Or the Note 4, if you don't mind voiding the warranty, because i personally wouldn't keep the stock ROM.

As for one you didn't list, the Oneplus One. The phone compliments the freedom of an Android device. Rooting is easy and custom ROM's are officially supported, Cyanogen (the stock ROM) is fantastic as well.

Asus B85M-G / Intel i5-4670 / Sapphire 290X Tri-X / 16GB RAM (Corsair Value 1x8GB + Crucial 2x4GB) @1333MHz / Coolermaster B600 (600W) / Be Quiet! Silent Base 800 / Adata SP900 128GB SSD & WD Green 2TB & SG Barracuda 1TB / Dell AT-101W / Logitech G502 / Acer G226HQL & X-Star DP2710LED

Honestly Note 4 is the only device I'd choose over a oneplus one. 

You're kidding, right?

Nope, I don't like the design of the moto x, nexus 6 is too big. unless you can get one of the 805 G3's i wouldn't get that. Note 4 has a big feel in the hand, decent screen and other then the touchwiz stuff it's not half bad.

Moto X, you don't have to deal with bullshit Samsung skin overlays it's fast good, I've got the 2013 edition and I love it, but the Nexus 6 is also a great choice for the same reasons, so after that it comes down to price for me.
