Some filter suggestions: camera resolution, year released, battery life, and OS (and version). I don't know where you're getting the info from, but these could all be pulled from gsmarena.

Removable battery would be another good filtering option.

Physical keyboard. I only buy phones with physical keyboards. ...Hm, I haven't bought a phone in a while.

  It seems like there are a lot fewer of us keyboard zealots these days. I've been hoping to see an update to my now 4-year-old HTC Desire Z. Physical keyboard, removable storage, and swappable SD cards are great - I really don't want to give any of those up. I resigned myself to getting a new Nexus device since so few apps are coming out for Android 2.3 anymore, but then they came out with that 6" monster... I really have no idea what phone to upgrade to. Nobody makes a phone I want anymore.

  My 2013 Moto X still hasn't gotten the Lollipop upgrade so idk if thats true... On second read I guess you didn't say "timely" upgrades

    Lame! No, I definitely thought the Moto series was one of the "good ones" getting timely updates, so I'm bummed to hear that. Is the Nexus series literally the only one that wins points in this category?

      Apparently! I was extremely disappointed, got this "unlocked international" phone but it's an AT&T version that has a locked bootloader, I was incredibly blown because I can't even mess around with the internals. I think the Nexus models and the newest Moto phones are the only ones with L so far. Grr...
