Torn between either Nexus X or Note 4. Using a Note 3 now and it's perfect for what I do at work in terms of size.

In line with past rumors, the alleged specs of the Nexus 6 by Motorola include Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 SoC, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of built-in memory, and 5.92” QHD display with 498ppi. A 3,200mAh battery reportedly powers the handset.

The camera of the Nexus 6 is going to be a 13MP unit capable of capturing 4K video. The front-facing 2MP unit is purportedly the same as the one found in the new Moto X.
Alleged image and details of Nexus 6 make the rounds - GSMArena.com news

I don't like that Moto bar button at the bottom. I think it looks cheap.

At first, 5.9" does seems too big too handle.
But all Google's phone have been using softkey as navigation so far.
So 5.9" really translate to about 5.7" of usable screen space.
That's around the typical phablet size screen

Judging by this picture:
Spoiler!

We can use this:
Visual Phone Size Comparison

And sort of get an estimation of how big it is!
Is around the size of an Iphone 6 plus and bit bigger than note!
Nexus phablet !!!

Of course, we all do want to see the regular 5.2" nexus

Nexus won't have capacitive keys. Neither will it have a SD card slot. Don't know why people still hope for these things.

Easy fix! Check out pie navigation.
It turn off the soft navigation bar for the full screen and add like a gesture to toggle the navigation.
Really fast to get use to. And when your friend pick up your phone they have no idea how to navigate it haha.

I just simply stated that after using a phone capacitive keys, its hard to go to another phone that doesnt have it...
