[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
How many of you guys see the profit of buying it from GPS over FK? Seeing the direct replacement policy of Google, I'm tending towards GPS! Any thoughts?
[Nexus 6  General] AmalD:
I have ordered mine from eBay :)
[Nexus 6  General] anuragvivek93:
Today, I talked to the flipkart support team... they have no clue whatsoever about the shipment. They didn't even mentioned the "2nd week of Dec." Really pissed with them :( :mad::mad:
[Nexus 6  General] SAW_JOK3R:
I think you should have waited. Most of the tempered glass has issues with proximity sensor because of the absence of the cutout there
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
As of now the best one out there is from spartanshieldz which does not have any issues even without cut outs
[Nexus 6  General] AmalD:
Hope this one will not have such issues :3

[Nexus 6  General] sudopatch:
any idea when it is available from Play Store?
[Nexus 6  General] Aniket:
GOSF or mid/late December.
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
What was the total cost including shipping?
[Nexus 6  General] deepak2011:
overall 1.1k INR with shipping

also orderd ringke rearth fusion clear and smoke cases waiting for it.
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
I ordered a tempered glass screen protector and a HD screen protector (SPARTAN SHIELD)for about 1k
[Nexus 6  General] sudopatch:
so will it get RMA (Return merchandise authorization ) from Google in India?

if so i can cancel the pre-ordered Nexus6

[Nexus 6  General] SAW_JOK3R:
sad :crying: they don't ship to Kolkata, India :crying:
[Nexus 6  General] vickysud:
Thinking of cancelling FK order. Doubt they will start shipping from 2nd week.

Any info when it will be launched on Play Store ?
[Nexus 6  General] deepak2011:
I ordered from there website, may be they ship to kolkata.
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
GPS will start talking orders from 10th. We get direct replacement under warranty from google if bought from GPS.
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
What will be the case if we buy it from FLIPKART? and will the replacement be a refurb or a new one from GPS
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
Motorola will handle the warranty! Products bought from GPS will be handled by Google irrespective of the manufacturer.
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
I meant to ask the advantage of buying it from play store
[Nexus 6  General] sudopatch:
you'll get the warranty from the manufacturer (i.e moto).

but in case of GPS you can return the rooted device
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
The replacement from Google will be with sealed box along with all the accessories.. Not the refurb!
[Nexus 6  General] deepak2011:
I still think that FK will ship on 10th dec or before that because they will loose customers like us if GPS takes order before there shipping.
[Nexus 6  General] MoonBlade:
I will only decide after I watch a couple of hands-on reviews.

On a side note:

Mobile devices these days are becoming more powerful in specs that It won't be too long before it recognize my laptop as a usb device when I connect them.
[Nexus 6  General] Ashtrix:
I'll pass this nexus 6, the size is way too much plus the N5 is fit in every aspect against this gorilla sized device.

Better i'll go for N5 with Snapdragon800 it's ok i guess..
[Nexus 6  General] udimars30:
I get it why the price is very hefty, because it's made by motorola and motorola already has it's own flagship i.e moto x (2014) which is priced at 500$. That is why they have priced it very high so that it won't affect their flagship sales.
[Nexus 6  General] kanwarpreetsingh25:
does it support Indian LTE Band40(2300)..any idea?
[Nexus 6  General] anurag4444:
What if motorola sell nexus 6 from flipkart the pricing would be less than.
[Nexus 6  General] udimars30:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AaWuQXgb74
[Nexus 6  General] _dimitri_:
somewhat agree with you on this and you got a point but I think prices are decided by Google not Moto Or LG, as last year LG has his flagship phone G2 with similar spec with high rate but still N5 was sold for much lesser price.
[Nexus 6  General] udimars30:
Well I knew that question would come up.

But the point is that g2 was released earlier than the nexus 5

And as you said both had same specs and the sales were not very very good for g2 that is why the price was kept low.

But here we have higher specs on the nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] AayushDhuria:
Specs only matter to me so I can know how long will the battery last, performance has become a non-issue. Mostly same with screen resolution.

(On a side note, Laptop brands need to get their **** together when it comes to screen resolution. Even 1080p isn't mainstream yet.)
[Nexus 6  General] hrishikeshgramani:
Saw a news somewhere that Motorola will release Nexus 6 in India by year end... Well if they release Nexus 6 at that time it's gonna get stiff competition from OPO and MI4 so they should release it early enough to see good sales actually...
[Nexus 6  General] AhmedFaiz:
We should see similar release like last year.. By nov end it be here...

OnePlus One/cm11s/Ak
[Nexus 6  General] skarma103:
anyone think getting a 1+1 around 20-25k now when it launches and waiting for a true nexus 64 bit 810 6core phone next year with 4gb ram is a good idea ?
[Nexus 6  General] udimars30:
As the nexus 9 is priced for 28900 which is around 470$

It seems that the nexus 6 will be starting around 45k which i guess will be too high.

But 40k woikd be very reasonable.
[Nexus 6  General] AbhishekS:
Is it a 64-bit processor for sure?
[Nexus 6  General] dhruvmalik:
No, its not a 64 bit processor.
[Nexus 6  General] rohit25:
805 is 32bit 810 is 64 bit
[Nexus 6  General] slaha:
This will not. In India, LTE band supported is band 40 (2300 Mhz).

Nexus 6 supports LTE band 3, which is 1800 MHz, and there is a possibility that Reliance 4G will be launched in this band. But, that is just a possibility :(
[Nexus 6  General] kanwarpreetsingh25:
Well thats a big drawback for an indian user as 4g is improving in india..anyways i think note4 is better.
[Nexus 6  General] Shankar9822:
Looking at a price range of 45K, I think I am gonna skip this and drag some more days on my Nexus 5.
[Nexus 6  General] SAW_JOK3R:
No need to cancel. both flipkart and GP will ship from same day :) I think you're not noticing that Nexus 6 is of moto and moto is FK exclusive ;)
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
That's what I'm saying! They will replace your device with the brand new device, within the warranty! No need to involve Motorola in between.
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
So should I consider that and order from GPS cancelling the order from FK just for that extra leverage they provide.
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
I pre-ordered mine from FK, a COD! I will wait for the official announcements and dates from both of them before deciding.

If fk delays the order, I might end up buying from GPS. I'm however not sure about the payment methods on GPS.. I had ordered N5 with a CC.. I don't know if DC is accepted.

Canceling my COD order from FK'd be the last thing I'd do.
[Nexus 6  General] SAW_JOK3R:
GP accepts DC too :) But only of AXIS, HDFC & ICICI and that too VISA :) If you have one of them, you're good to go :) I use AXIS bank's DC to purchase apps so I can assure you that they'll work for purchasing devices too :)
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
Apps are different! I too use HDFC and ICICI to buy apps, but if you do some random searches on GPS forums there are some people who are charged twice with DCs, while ordering N5. Obviously, they got the refund after receiving the product in hand. So..this is that! Anyone who bought N5 with DC?
[Nexus 6  General] SAW_JOK3R:
Charged twice with DC is a completely different thing :) That could be a bug but they'll work for sure :)
[Nexus 6  General] vickysud:
FK is completely clueless about the shipping date.
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
I read somewhere(last week) that the Motorola Indian official confirmed that it will launch during the GOSF in an interview . so let's wait until 10th
[Nexus 6  General] Aniket:
Pre-ordered phones will most likely ship before GPS's 1st batch. Even though it might become available on GPS during GOSF, it won't ship for 2-3 business weeks just like other countries and also the fact that FK pre-orders will get 1st priority. And Motorola will also provide replacements in case of manufacturing defects. Only difference is that Google accepts rooted phones while Motorola won't.
[Nexus 6  General] SAW_JOK3R:
I think motorola will accept rooted devices too :) As it's nexus, they should. The funny part is, will the representative at service center able to find that the device is rooted or not? :p I think, the answer will be "NO"
[Nexus 6  General] Aniket:
As someone stated a few pages ago, a Motorola representative confirmed that rooted devices will not be accepted. You can return the phone to complete stock(relock bootloader + reset flash counter) before going to the service center and they won't notice. Frankly, right now I am more worried about the burn-in and encryption issues rather than root.
[Nexus 6  General] SAW_JOK3R:
I think the burn-in issue should be solved now by Moto as we'll get in the second phase of launch :) BTW did the representative mentioned "nexus 6"? and if possible can you please share the link to that page?
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
I agree, FK pre-orders will be fulfilled on priority. However, I'm having second thoughts regarding the 'complete' replacement that GPS offers. They will give you brand new phone with the box. I read somewhere that they even replace the broken N5.

For me urgency is important, I'd rather stick with FK.
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
Okay! Here is the news! They are not sure! Why did they start the preorders early then? I'm frustrated now.
[Nexus 6  General] infohitesh:

[Nexus 6  General] infohitesh:
With all the ads of GOSF, i am sure they will launch between 10 to 12 December... Or else how come they promise "win nexus 6"

My only concern what happened in UK launch... Where they promised 1 dec as launch date but phone was available only after 5-6 dec... UK is existing big market for them unlike india...

Definitely India is one of their emerging market but looking at recent articles I dont think Google or Motorola care about market share
[Nexus 6  General] iGamejump:
Indeed! Lets wait for GOSF! Nexus 6's launch on 10th December is inevitable for sure.

Worst Wait...

I am frustrated as all of you...

I got an OPO invite this morning, and could add it to my cart now and it is waiting to be paid. But my heart begs me to wait for Nexus. God, why is this happening... Should I proceed with OPO which doesnt even cost half as the neXus? I hope you guys will persuade me to wait...
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
Yes of course
[Nexus 6  General] infohitesh:
Haha

Good delima

Just check on support of OPO as i read somewhere they will be facing some issue with support part or software upgrade part not sure .. But i dont have any link to prove it just read somewhere as i was following OPO launch..
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
Was that for me? I guess its a wrong tag :D
[Nexus 6  General] devesh38:
Hehehe.. I too in same boat. Got the invite yesterday. Thought a lot and decided to let go nexus 6. OPO at 22k was very very tempting. Cancelled the flipkart order. I knew the shipping was just around the corner but OPO at 22k sold the deal. Cynogen Support doesn't matter to me as there are lot of roms available.
[Nexus 6  General] buggerthis:
Cyanogen support isn't the only issue with the OPO. They're a small new company that isn't able to cope with the demand for their device. Hardware and customer support issues seem pretty common. r/android is full of OnePlus customer support horror stories. That said, it does seem like they're quite transparent and working really hard to resolve all problems. Their next phone should be worth watching for.
[Nexus 6  General] Aniket:
If price is not a problem for you then why settle for a device with last generation specs? Just wait for a few days. Shipping will start soon.
[Nexus 6  General] deenadayalan_s:
Price is not a problem, but the wait is.

Cant use my bro's Moto for more than a week which I got by temporarily exchanging my backup nokia 1110i.

[Nexus 6  General] tuxinvincible:
I got an email and SMS regarding the cancellation and refund. So I called them up. They are telling that the seller could not procure the stock as expected. Hence it is cancelled. I pre-ordered on Nov 21.

Am I only one ??? :crying:

Apologies to [MENTION=6228217]tuxinvincible[/MENTION], but if flipkart is telling him that his unit could not be procured, could that mean that other units have been? And in that case, deliveries might start soon …

[Nexus 6  General] tuxinvincible:
I sent 2 tweets in past 2 days.. They did not respond at all...
[Nexus 6  General] Aniket:
It looks like 64GB version orders are being canceled. Not much surprise since Google is facing supply issues with 64GB version and 32GB Midnight Blue one. But why did Google take orders if they couldn't fulfill it? Most f*cked up Nexus launch EVER.

Edit: On the brighter side, it means that WS Retail has received(/will receive stock real soon) stock for 32GB. So shipping should start soon.
[Nexus 6  General] anuragvivek93:
Why can't they give a date, I am not able to understand..
[Nexus 6  General] Aniket:
FK can't help it since Google is not supplying the units. Those guys at FK might not have a solid date themselves. Even if they do know and they give us a solid date and are unable to deliver by that time because of delay from Google/Moto then it will result in more outrage. That is why they gave us only estimated dates.
[Nexus 6  General] gseth:
Placed Order on the 18th, 12:59 pm for the 64Gb cloud white. The pre-order went live around 12:30 or so I think. Have not received any email from flipkart and the order status is still showing as active on their site.

I bet they must have received a very limited stock of the 64 gb version than expected and are cancelling orders. 64 Gb as it is in very short supply even in the US.

Seeing how the person who placed the order on the 21st received an email, I think people who placed on the 18th and 19th must be getting it.
[Nexus 6  General] Aryan@1:
wait is good...

just 2 more days to go...
[Nexus 6  General] dhruvmalik:
In my opinion, they know that the 32 MB will be the most in demand, then CW. As others have said above, they will fulfill the orders on those who did it on the 18th Nov to 19th Nov.

I ordered mine on 12:30 PM a second after they started it and shows mine at 12:31 PM as processed.

32GB MB here.
[Nexus 6  General] Aniket:
My order was placed on 18th Nov at 8:27pm. 32GB MB.
[Nexus 6  General] deenadayalan_s:
Just called fk, and they are telling that they haven't received any stock from either motorola or google and they ll start shipping as soon as they receive which they believe that will happen soon..
[Nexus 6  General] Sultan of Speed:
Did you ask them to define "soon"?
[Nexus 6  General] deenadayalan_s:
Of Course I did.

But they didn't give a satisfactory answer to that instead what they say is this,

"We are expecting the stock to arrive anytime this week and will ship once we get the consignment from Motorola/Google."

Also regarding the cancellations,

they said that the orders which are cancelled were made at the end of Pre-order and some COD orders (Verification with past order history) were due to less stock (which will be received by FK from Moto/Google).

Not sure how helpful this has been. But I am worried more now, if my order (which I did on 20th 10.25 PM, 64Gig MB) is going to be cancelled, I wish they cancel it soon, so that I can use the invite I have to go with OPO.

Fingers Crossed.
[Nexus 6  General] Sultan of Speed:
God. Mine is a cash on delivery as well. I placed my order 18th at 12:28 pm. Hope they don't cancel mine.
[Nexus 6  General] deenadayalan_s:
To my frustration,

I got all these delivered one by one last week,

1. Cruzerlite Case (Combo of 3)

2. Screen Protector

3. OTG cable

4. Plantronics BackBeat GO Headset

Hope they deliver my Nexus too...
[Nexus 6  General] gseth:
I seriously doubt the person you spoke to has internal knowledge about logistics, they just check their system and say whatever is updated on their system.

If flipkart has cancelled an order, they have a confirmation on the stock numbers, which would probably mean either the stock have arrived or a due to arrive very shortly (in transit).

If the launch is on the 10th or 12th, flipkart already has the stock. They will never reveal they have the stock because of a launch date fixed by Google/Motorola.

These things don't happen when stock arrives, everything is planned ahead, flipkart can't suddenly get the stock one day and start shipping it, without having any specifics on logistics. Its a b2b transaction for re-sale.

Talking to some one working in management would give the clear picture, people who are actually handling the Nexus 6 launch rather than the call center people.
[Nexus 6  General] sudopatch:
