I am looking to upgrade from my Nexus 5, which is still going strong with a custom ROM and a custom kernel.

 

What I am looking for:

* bigger than a 5 inch screen

* great battery life

* no brand preference

* average CPU, not high-end (more battery friendly)

* removable battery

 

What I don't care for:

* lack of SD card

* lack of wireless charging

* resolution above 1080p

 

My main contenders so far have been: 

Moto G5 - no custom ROMs at this moment

Nexus 5x - the bootloop problem will always bother me

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 - physical buttons which are reversed from normal

 

I would love to hear more suggestions as I am not in a hurry to replace my current Nexus 5.
