Best "phablet" under $500?

[TrollingKiwi]

Hi.

So I'm looking for a new "phablet" android smartphone. What I want in it is:

1. Screen size of at least 5". I really like the 5.5" screen on the LG G4, for example.
2. Removable battery of 3000 mAh or similar.
3. Android 5 or later.
4. A fast processor, AT LEAST 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage. I do NOT like it when my phone is slow, or I have storage issues.
5. I'd like to pay less the $500 for it.

I set that price because I don't game on my phones. I don't expect it to have super powerful graphics or 1440p resolution.I just want a big, fast phone. What are your best, affordable, phablet recommendations? Btw, I already know the LG G4 is a possible option, but I'd like others.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Asus ZenFone? 5.5", and the ZenFone Zoom has the best zoom of all cameras.

Take a look at the Note 4.
-1440p 5.7inch phone
-Reputable brand (Samsung)
-Snapdragon 805 (a bit slower than the G4, but still a very fast CPU)
-3GB RAM
-Android 5.1.1 (planned upgrade to 6.0 soon)
-16MP 4K camera
-Removable 3220mAh battery and micro SD card support.
-S Pen
-Quick Charge (60% in 30 minutes)
-32GB RAM (however I think there may be a 16GB version)

Either this or the G4, you will love both. The G4 is a bit better but the Note 4 has its advantages and is definitely worth a look.

The nexus 6p has all that except the removable battery it is 64Bit and has a octa core CPU.

Nice 2 month necromancing.
Though the Nexus 6P doesn't have a camera with actual zoom.

No phone has 32GB RAM most don't even have 3. I think you are mistaken. The note 4 is good if you plan multi core CPU usage.
