Does that ring true for your opinions? Reminded me of Ryan O'Donnell on the 1UP Show with Gears of War 2 
Am I missing out on anything if I get an iPhone 6 over a Samsung Galaxy Note 4?
I KNOW I KNOW EVERY PHONE NOW IS SO GOOD THAT YOU WON'T REGRET IT.
For some reason, I was looking for a best smartphone to buy right now, and came across this Verge video.

"Getting a phone with the right combination of hardware design, software, apps, camera, ecosystem and battery life is really really crucial. It's also really easy. Just buy an iPhone 6."
"The thing about the iPhone 6 is that it just doesn't have problems."
"The list of Android phones goes forever and honestly, most of them are pretty good. It's really hard to find a bad smartphone these days. But it's worth getting the best ones even if it costs a little more."
"So make sure you get the right one and the easiest way to do that is to buy the iPhone 6."
Now, the Verge writer in the video, David Pierce, gives enough reasons like having the most robust app ecosystem, a great 8MP camera, and great battery life.
I had already seen the Marques Brownlee video, "Smartphone Awards 2014". His best big phone was the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. His best smartphone was the HTC One M8. His second place was just like David Pierce, the Moto X. His third place was the iPhone 6 but he likes the 6 Plus way more.
But man is it usual for Verge writers to sound that evangelical for iPhone? Apple users tend to be the most evangelical among phone users, and Apple is well aware of that with their marketing and shop psychology feeding into that hysteria. Apple users are compared to very religious people in MRI results. But I expect this of the general public with intense brand loyalty, not critics who have to experience a wide range of products. Or do I need to get over myself and admit iPhone really is the best with its closed environment and non-universal methods?
My criteria:
1. I really need the best battery life cause I like to use the internet a lot when I'm out especially shopping to compare prices or tweet or other things.
2. I really would like a phone with a great internet experience. Where copy and pasting text is super easy rather than really frustrating on my current Nokia Lumia 920.
3. Can you drag and drop music files or any video stuff as easily as in any android phone because of the usb? That's kind of a big deal for me.
4. I really would like the best camera especially for night time. Desirable to have a great looking video at 1080p and doesn't look like a phone video with low framerate.
5. I really like using multiple apps at the same time.
6. I really don't want a slippery design. But is that a small niggle, like could I just buy a skin that gives it a stickier grip?
Honestly, the only draw for me to get an iPhone is the games because as a gamer, I've heard of a lot of cool games and know they'll never leave the iOS space (Monument Valley, The Sailor's Dream, 80 Days, Hitman GO, Crossy Road). Now if you're observant enough, you'll know most of these games aside from The Sailor's Dream are on Android. Is gaming on an Android device equivalent to an iPhone in terms of performance and other such factors? These aren't action games, so I'm guessing yes.
