We thought about giving this last slot to the Sony Xperia Z3, Moto X 2014 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 but ultimately we found Apple's other iPhone 6, the 4.7-inch model, to be the phone that's most worthy of this spot. The smaller iPhone 6 isn't as big as the iPhone 6 Plus and it lacks the 1080p resolution and OIS on the camera. That said, it matches the iPhone 6 Plus in every other important category keeps you in Apple's ecosystem. It also helps that it's cheaper than Apple's larger iPhone 6 Plus. And let's face it, a 4.7-inch display isn't that small. This is a phone that you absolutely must consider before buying the iPhone 6 Plus in January, if only to rule it out. | ||||||

One phone not mentioned that I really like is the Huawei Ascend Mate 7. I bought mine while I was in southeast Asia but you can now buy it on Amazon. It is Iphone like with no app drawer and a aluminum back with an excellent touch sensitive finger print reader on the back. It has a 6 inch screen yet is almost the same size as Iphone. My only complaint is it could have brighter screen outdoors and I wish it had a wacom screen with built in pen like the Samsung Note series. I think Huawei has Apple and Samsung in their headlights. The Huawei Mate 2 (Fry’s was selling it) which has a 6.1 inch screen is a great phone also, especially considering it sells for $300 (or about $225 from Consumer Cellular). I would only buy the Mate 7 (MT7-L09) if you use T Mobile because it gives you full LTE on that network only.
