Any decent phones with screens as big as Note 5?

Okay, show me proof that they tested the brightness of the panel properly (auto-brightness) and you can have your cake. I'm not even going to ask about the battery life assertion since it's pretty obvious that nobody outside of Anandtech would actually test that properly.

The note5 gets around 550-600 nits at max brightness.

According to tomsguide and various user reported measurements the Nexus 6P gets around 350-400 nits

For reference anandtech tested the Note4 panel at around 400 nits as well. Which is another reason why I believe the Nexus 6P uses the Note4 panel and not the Note5.
 
The back was flimsy, the power button had a loose feeling to it. Top screen had a bit of LED bleed. Felt like a piece of crap to me.

Eh, too each their own. I'd mostly agree with your assessment (back panel and even the front plastic pieces don't feel super luxurious, but not cheap to me, and the power button feels a bit loose although mine doesn't feel cheap, just feels like its spongy) although I obviously don't think those are as big of issues (the backlight bleed on the 2nd display only sometimes is there for me which seems to indicate it has something to do with what it is trying to display) but in no way does it feel like a "piece of crap", and it feels more solid than pretty much every other phone I've handled recently (I'd say that maybe the new Samsungs feel more solid, but I still prefer how the V10 feels in hand, largely due to the steel sides). I've thought the iPhone 6 felt cheap when it came out and the 6S didn't feel much better to me. It might be more consistent but its far from a premium feeling device to me.
