i had a galaxy s6 for the past 5 months and it was a nightmare. i made the mistake of not doing my research, approving an OTA upgrade to 5.1.1 and made it impossible to root my phone. recently got a nexus 5x and i am so happy to have a stock google phone again.

I'm going back to my Nexus 5 after upgrading the internal battery by 30% [1], the S6 had great hardware but the memory management and overall software experience is horrible. Just give me AOSP! I'm going to miss the camera and Samsung Pay, though.
