Neither. If I do get another Lumia it will either be an unlocked 925, 930 or a 1520. Not impressed with either of the flagships or Windows 10 Mobile in it's current state.
Why can I not have both? You Lumia'cist or something?
No; I'll not buy either until a suitable solution is available for Verizon. I blew up my family plan on Verizon to go with the 1520 on AT&T. That lasted about 3 months (AT&T and Straight Talk) before I bought the ICON and went back to Verizon. The ICON is just 3 months old and could last me a couple of years if necessary.
Now, to address the Windows ECO system for a moment. Doesn't each part of the ECO system depend on the device before it and after it in the circle of a complete ECO system? At this point I have a laptop, tablet, Cloud and Windows Phone. Obviously the weak link in this circle is my ICON (older hardware and limited future upgrades). The 950 and the 950 XL is the next obvious step to make the circle better.
I'm not a power user; more a hobbist that loves my toys. If other OEM's bring a WP to the market that is comparable to or better than 950's then I have to hope they are available for Verizon.
Watching the MS presentation live brought up something I have heard called for many years: NIH - Not invented here. It's obvious the 950's are left over from Nokia and pre New Regime. Maybe MS should just have not introduced this stop gap phone and waited until the new team came out with "their" product. Just a thought.
