The 6-plus has a known design flaw, where it's physically weak right in the middle near where volume buttons are and the sim card goes in. Because of Apple's replacement/repair policies, they won't let me switch to even the 6s Plus without paying full price- they'll only sell me an out-of-warranty replacement at a discount if it's the exact same model. Consequently, the 6 plus (NOT 6s plus) keeps failing because I have a habit of sticking the phone in my pocket (crazy, right?) or setting it down somewhere and someone setting something on it, or whatever. Each time the failure is slightly different, but it can all be traced back to this weak spot in the case.
I'm only really interested in the google phone because of project Fi, which is basically google being your cell company - probably contracting with almost every cell phone company in the world, and you're not tied to any one of them - and the phone switches to wifi whenever that's available. Data, anywhere in the world, same price per gig. Only works on the google phone and one other phone. The key is that it's not THAT much cheaper than AT&T, unless you travel. I don't travel that much, but would like to travel more, and not pay ATT an extra $10 a day just to have maps and email when I leave the US.
I'm quite accustomed to the apple integration, especially chat, calendar, and iPod type stuff - and the things that go to iCloud like my address book. I use IMAP for email and that's from our ISP and should work cross-platform, so that part doesn't worry me.
