Sometimes when trying to choose between all of the smartphones on the market, it can be difficult to know which might be the best one for you. Take the Huawei-made Google Nexus 6P and the Moto X Pure Edition for example, both Android handsets with the same display size, 4G LTE connectivity and some top-end specs. We’re considering the Nexus 6P vs Moto X Pure (Style) in a specs breakdown and a video comparison that shows more.

Two Google Nexus smartphones were released this year, the LG Nexus 5X and the larger Huawei Nexus 6P. The Motorola Moto X Pure Edition released around the same time, and is known as the Moto X Style for international regions, so this comparison can be used whether you’ve shortlisted the Moto X Pure Edition or Moto X Style.
