So the Nexus 6 is water-resistant. But not waterproof.

It didn't get the finger scanner that was rumored but water-resistancy is more useful anyway.

The Nexus 6 also got a QHD display, and it's an AMOLED. Sadly, no language core though for true Moto X control though.

The Nexus 6 gets an ambient mode like the Moto X though, so the display will light up when you pick it up or when you reach for it.

OIS on a Nexus sounds good to me, but I'm still worried about the Moto X camera, even if it's a newer version.

It missed out on a 64-bit chip...so what does this mean for the full potential of Android 5.0 Lollipop on the device?

What other hits and misses do you see on the Nexus 6?

i think the 64 bit processor is the reason it really not worth taking the nexus 6

I think so too. I think 64-bit processing is the reason you should wait until next year for a phone upgrade. It's going to make a huge difference to devices.
