The Galaxy S6 counts with a brighter screen than Google Nexus 6P, because although it has a little bit smaller display, and they both have an equal 2560 x 1440 resolution, the Galaxy S6 also counts with a little bit higher amount of pixels per inch of screen.

The Galaxy S6 features as much storage capacity for games and applications as Google Nexus 6P, they have exactly the same 128 GB internal storage.

Google Nexus 6P counts with superior battery lifetime than Galaxy S6, because it has a 3450mAh battery capacity instead of 2550mAh. Samsung Galaxy S6 counts with a little bit better camera than Google Nexus 6P, because although it has a smaller camera sensor capturing less light and washed colors, and they both have the same 3840x2160 video definition and the same video frame rates, the Samsung Galaxy S6 also counts with a back-facing camera with much more mega-pixels and a bigger diafragm aperture to take better photography in poorly lited situations.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 not only is the best phones of the ones we are comparing here, but it's also a lot cheaper, which makes it an obvious call.
