Comparison review
Google Nexus 6 has an overall score of 81.1, which is much better than the Asus ZenFone 5Q's score of 72.6. Although it's the best we compare here, we must tell that it's also an extremely older, noticeably thicker and a little bit heavier device. The Google Nexus 6 counts with a much better display than Asus ZenFone 5Q, and although they both have a display of the same size, the Google Nexus 6 also has a better resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels and a just a little higher display density.
Asus ZenFone 5Q counts with a much bigger memory to install applications and games than Google Nexus 6, and although they both have equal internal memory, the Asus ZenFone 5Q also has an external SD slot that holds up to 1,95 TB. The Google Nexus 6 features a bit superior processor than Asus ZenFone 5Q, because although it has a smaller amount of RAM and 4 less processing cores (although they are faster), it also counts with an extra graphics processor.
Asus ZenFone 5Q counts with just a little better battery life than Google Nexus 6, because it has a 2% more battery size. The Asus ZenFone 5Q captures slightly better videos and photos than Google Nexus 6, because although it has a tinier aperture, and they both have the same (4K) video resolution and the same 30 frames per second video frame rates, the Asus ZenFone 5Q also counts with a more MP camera.
Although Google Nexus 6 is a better device, it is way more expensive than the Asus ZenFone 5Q, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Asus ZenFone 5Q. If you are trying to save some dollars, you can buy Asus ZenFone 5Q, letting go a couple features and specs, but you will get the most with your money.
