Except that TouchID doesn't work as well as the Nexus Imprint on the Nexus 6P/5X. I had a Nexus 6P before my iPhone 6S Plus and one thing I did notice was that TouchID on the iPhone isn't near as accurate as the Nexus one. Even with wet fingers I could unlock my Nexus device whereas with my iPhone even slightly damp fingers blocks the phone from being unlocked.
nexus might be quicker but at least you can put the iphone flat and unlock it. having the nexus fingerprint on the back is stupid to me. so really techinally it's quicker on the iphone as you don't need to put your finger to the back of the phone

On the Nexus you can set "safe places" where you put your house address in and your phone's lock is deactivated, as soon as you move from that place the lock turns back on.

Example.. Safe at home, not safe on journey to work, safe at work..

No way they ditch SG. Adding a Deep Blue color with a black front would be awesome and I'd totally buy it, but I definitely don't think they'll eliminate SG.

Maybe it's not really a "blue" color. I remember when the Slate Black iPhone 5 came out, it also had a blue-ish shade on it when you held it in the right angle/ in the right light...

Ok, after seeing the new Moto Z, I finally have some hope for the smart connector. If it had magnetic connections, it could provide very nice extensions.
