But how do they stack up against the giants of Android, BlackBerry, and Windows Phone? Although now that Apple has a 5.5-inch iPhone, perhaps calling those other phones giants isn't entirely accurate. But still, how do they compare? That's what we're here to find out.</p>  <p>So we've taken the latest and greatest that Android, BlackBerry, and Windows Phone have to offer and stacked it up against Apple's newest. There are, admittedly, still a few things we don't yet know, but this gives a good idea of how it all plays out. Of course, these comparisons are all dependent on the software that's running on the device — some are better at managing processors and power consumption than others.</p> <p><style type="text/css"> <![CDATA[/* ><!]]>*/ </style></p> <div class="device-table"> <table><thead><tr><th>Feature</th> <th>Apple iPhone 6 (4.7-inch)</th> <th>Apple iPhone 6 (5.5-inch)</th> <th>Samsung Galaxy S5</th> <th>Samsung Galaxy Note 4</th> <th>LG G3</th> <th>HTC One M8</th> <th>Moto X (2014)</th> <th>Nokia Lumia 930</th> <th>Nokia Lumia 1520</th> <th>BlackBerry Z30</th> <th>BlackBerry Passport</th> </tr></thead><tbody><tr><td></td> <td> iPhone 6 (4.7-inch)" title="iPhone 6 (4.7-inch)
