I actually just bought the Nexus 6 (moments ago) thanks to the above poster for mentioning the price drop. It is going to replace my N5.

Personally, i don't care about the "top of the line issue" in this case. As it stands, i absolutely love my N5. It is every bit the phone i want, and need. Price point is, of course, a huge part of it. Is it a $700 phone? Probably not. But my value of it is far higher than retail price ($250).

So i guess what i'm saying is, because i love my N5 so much, i don't "need" better. The N5X just feels like the same (but a bit better) phone, and since my N5 is still operating great, i have no need for it. On the flipside, the N6P is a bit too spendy for it's (personal) value. The Amazon price of the N6 on the otherhand, definitely raises the value bar, for me.

Quality with lower price points (N5 land) just makes me a really happy customer, totally willing to spend the coin.
