Comparison review
Google Nexus 6 has a global score of 81.1, which is just a bit better than the Google Pixel 3's 80 general score. Although it's the best device we compare here, Google Nexus 6 is a incredibly older, somewhat heavier and noticeably thicker device than the Google Pixel 3. Google Nexus 6 counts with a slightly better looking display than Google Pixel 3, because it has a quite greater display pixel density, a little bigger display and a higher resolution of 2560 x 1440px.
Google Nexus 6 counts with a bit better processor than Google Pixel 3, because although it has a smaller amount of RAM memory and 4 lesser processing cores (although faster), it also counts with an extra graphics processing unit. The Google Pixel 3 takes a little bit better videos and photos than Google Nexus 6, because although it has a lower video resolution and a camera in the back with a lower 12.2 mega-pixels resolution, it also counts with a bigger aperture to take better images in low-light environments.
Google Pixel 3 and Google Nexus 6 both feature incredibly similar memory capacity to store more games and applications, they have exactly the same internal storage. Google Nexus 6 features just a little bit longer battery life than Google Pixel 3, because it has a 3220mAh battery capacity against 2915mAh.
Although Google Nexus 6 is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than Google Pixel 3, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the Google Pixel 3. So if you need that extra features and specs, you can buy the Google Nexus 6, else you can save some money and get the Google Pixel 3, resigning some specifications.
