Although Google Nexus 6 is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Galaxy A11, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the Galaxy A11. So if you want that extra specs and features, you can buy Google Nexus 6, else you can save some dollars and buy the Galaxy A11, giving up a couple features and specifications.
