Here's what a sane person would easily see are not essentially the same
between the Nexus 6 and the iPhone 6s:

1. The operating system.
2. The camera 
3. The fingerprint sensor

Where the price paid/saved for those three things will be 2.5x:
- $300 = Nexus 6/32GB
- $750 = iPhone 6s/32GB

Other than those three things, despite you repeating with any proof
whatsoever that they're not essentially the same, the proof was supplied in
the OP.

The Nexus 6/32GB is slightly superior to the iPhone 6/32GB in some specs
(e.g., NFC, WiFi, battery life, & slightly older bluetooth but with file
transfer, so that's a wash) while the iPhone 6s is slightly superior to the
Nexus 6 in some specs (e.g., it has EVDO and slightly newer Bluetooth - but
without any file transfer so that's a wash); but in most specs other than
fingerprint sensor and more video options, any sane person would see that
it's easily a wash.

Any sane person can see that.
Only the insane (or Apple apologists) will not agree with the fact that the
only major difference are those three things (each of which matter only to
those to whom it matters).

Since the Apple equipment here is 2.5 times more expensive than the Android
equipment, one has to weigh how much it's worth to them to have:
a. Apple's ecosystem
b. More video camera options
c. A fingerprint sensor

Each person can answer that question for themselves:
Q: Are those 3 things worth the entirety of a second Nexus 6 phone with
$150 to spare?

APPLE person = one phone
Android person = two phones plus $150 spare change

Your choice.
