Also, IMO, charging speed is just as important as battery life. I can appreciate a device that can last me over day, but that's kind of negated if I need 2-3 hours to bring it back to 100%. Wireless charging is nice, but I don't use it much personally since I hear it's harder on the battery long-term.

If the phone is lasting over a day, you can charge when you sleep unless you're sleeping less than 2-3 hours.

Motorola is claiming that this is the worlds fastest quick charging phone, probably partly because they are selling it with a Turbo Charger that pushes more juice than other quick charging chargers. In the right scenario, you can technically grab 10 hours worth of power in 15 minutes time. Thats probably more like 2 hours of real usage in 15 minutes, but still, thats a big deal. For a full charge, while I didnt exactly keep track, it certainly seemed like I was grabbing full charges in about an hour. --- Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T - Johnny Depp 'Once Upon A Time in Mexico' ...

When the iPad was new, it was regarded as "just a big iPod Touch", and considered silly and superfluous. Eight years later, tablets are ubiquitous, and some readers might be reading this very post on one right now.

Just admit you're jealous you can't drop 1.5k on a phone. True, and not to mention, carriers and stores have deals on phones all the time. I think Apple has some deal where you pay so much a month for the rest of your life and you can always trade in your phone towards a new one. Also, T-Mobile outright runs buy-one-get-one-free deals occasionally, which effectively cuts the price by half if you have someone else who needs a new phone. Lots of people also get free phones from their employers. You should always check around to see if you can land a better deal on a new phone, because chances are, there will be one.
