Have a few options here. Clear favorites are the Nexus 5 and the Moto X. They are both so close in specs that it's hard to decide sight unseen.

Kewl. Thank you. I'm already on contract, it was a bring your own device ... but than I want to get rid of my Iphone 4 and grab something with a bigger screen and more multimedia capabilites. Just wasn't sure if these phones are too huge or not. 5" screen seems quite large ! I like the feel of 4" - 4.5" in my hand. I guess I can block out the sun with it than!

If you can hold out for a few weeks, get one of the models of the ASUS Zenfone 2.

 

If you can't wait that long, then I'd say get the Nexus 5.

 

I don't get why people are saying the Moto X... The Nexus 5 has better battery life (especially after the Lollipop update), better hardware, and more support from Google, since it is one of their phones. The Moto X (both generations) are so overrated, overpriced, and just not worth it. They make no sense to me whatsoever.

COMIC SANS
