HTC has improved A LOT. But I'd still give the edge to LG. Maybe it's simply that they have more phones on the market and update most of them, or the fact that they rolled out Marshmallow to the G3 which a lot of people didn't expect them to do. The G3 is more then 2 years old.

It *IS* that big Harhar, compared to every other phone out there. It is the largest flagship phone on the market. You are used to it so you think it's not that big anymore.

I know. I used to think my Turbo 2 was OMG SO BIG when I first got it. After a month I had to send it back for a warranty repair. Temporarily went back to my old RAZR HD. The phone I used to think was perfect now felt TINY!

Rapid Charging is for sure one of my favorite features. (This is an Android feature, not a USB-C feature. First debuted on the Motorola Turbo 1). I can get 8 hours of juice out of a 15 minute charge.
Get home from work, battery is low. Don't have much time, gotta take kid to karate. Plug it in. Get kid dressed, give him a drink. Grab the phone. Went from 30% to 75% in 10 minutes.

Are you using the G5 now for rapid charging? I'm definitely leaning more toward the G5 these days.

The 6P is excellent but it's REALLY big. You should look at one in person.
Other then that I would recommend the HTC M10. VERY well designed new flagship from HTC.
If you want to wait, the Note 6 from Samsung is due this summer and the Note line has alwyas gotten high marks from everyone.
Or wait til the fall and get a iPhone 7.

Can't go wrong with ANY of these choices.
Um, the V10 is bigger than the 6P so you shouldn't be complaining about it's size.

The V10 has that CAMERA!!! It's truly incredible. It also feels smaller, even though it's not, because of the smaller bezel.

Nexus 6P you are guaranteed updates as soon as Google puts them out. It will outlast any Samsung or LG phone with support.

Ya, I've been leaning toward the V10 lately, even though it's on an older processor, it looks like an awesome phone .

If I were to upgrade from my Moto X Pure it would be for the new 1 + 3. Great features and a ton of bang for the $

I would totally do the new 1+3. It's an awesome looking phone, problem is, I'm with sprint and their phones don't work with sprint, so... no go.
