It looks it doesn't worth the hassle and madness ordering through GPS next year for the next phone. All the hard time we have, i manage to grab 2 blues on the 10/29, but because i wanted a white, i grabbed one on the 11/5 sale. I know order always said leave warehouse by 21, but at this moment seeing that the people that buy over motorola have tracking and possible arrival tomorrow, tmobile stores have their inventory, why google couldn't sent the orders yet, it looks like google doesn't want people to buy them over GPS and is forcing people to go to carriers.

I ordered moto 360 and nexus 5 on sale date, and have them fast, this time google screw it. My last hope its they start shipping tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] Parvinder25:
I'm surely not preordering anything from GPS after this fk up.
[Nexus 6  General] Aboveboard1:
It doesn't bode well for google if Motorola was able to ship before them. I don't think they intended this to happen. It's still advantageous for them to have customers order via Google play and not have Motorola siphon off their customers for unlocked phones. Something went amiss that's for sure. Still waiting for my 10/29 order and if I had to do it over again I would order directly from manufacturer and not Google play for new releases.
[Nexus 6  General] mk92595:
Its funny that this only happens with their phones. I remember buying the N7 2012 easily and they had the N9 in stock without any shipping issues
[Nexus 6  General] decke003:
Listen, T-Mobile already has stock in stores... That almost certainly means that Google already has stock too. The reason Motorola is shipping before anyone else is because they had to come all the way from China. I feel very confident that the first wave of GPS Nexus 6s get shipped tomorrow because they are already in the US, and as such don't need nearly the lead time. The reason the stock on GPS sold out so quick in the first place is because they were only selling the stock they had on hand.

Obviously this is a whole lot of guessing on my part, but it all seems to make sense to me.
[Nexus 6  General] Aboveboard1:
If they were only selling stock on hand how come they haven't shipped already. It's all speculation and seeing how tight lipped Google is, we'll probably never find out what was going on. All would have been on the up and up if Moto didn't ship before them, that's what really bothers me.
[Nexus 6  General] Euler MD:
Isn't there a rumor saying Google has all of them prepared to ship tomorrow: 11/17?
[Nexus 6  General] indianajonze:
i'm in the same boat, but i'd love to know how you (and others on here) think this is a fk up. When you ordered it said on the play store that it would ship by 11/21. they very clearly told you when to expect shipment. because a few ppl have been getting shipment notifications (which may or may not be accurate) doesn't change the fact that the store you ordered it from gave you a window which has not yet arrived yet. if it doesnt ship by the 11/21 promised date THEN lets all sharpen our pitchforks and light our torches. but until then...i think you all need to relax...
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
Well said. I gave your post "thanks" for this.
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
Yes, everyone just chill until tomorrow. It's obviously going down this week!
[Nexus 6  General] Aboveboard1:
No one would be on this forum if we were relaxed including YOU! Maybe you need to relax about us not relaxing but I doubt that you're really all that relaxed anyway. Moto shipping before GP is an issue for me because google implied by ordering through them 10/29 would mean you would be the first to get the phone. Turned out not to be true.
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:

I'm having a hard time understanding where all of this anger is coming from. Google Play promised a "ships from warehouse" date of Nov 21st right? It's been that way since the very first order was made on the 29th? Before even ordering it said "ships in 2-3 weeks." Why do some people feel like Google killed their dog?

It seems to me, that instead of comprehending the facts, that many are confusing hope with facts. I've read pages about how Google was going to ship early and there was nothing to back that up other than hope and past experiences. So what if Moto is shipping theirs from across the world or people who ordered from them gets theirs a few days earlier than GP customers? Those people were quoted a delivery date of Nov 19. The only thing one is entitled to by purchasing the N6 is receiving the phone. Not getting it well before the quoted date or receiving it before another vendor.

Yes, it's OK to be excited. I'm waiting for one myself, but as I've said many times already in this section, this is supposed to be a fun time. Don't worry so much about when it will get in your hands, because it will eventually. There is no need to get worked up about it. Spend less time contacting CSR's about info you already know and more time enjoying other things.

Stay on-topic and be nice to each other. We are all in this together. :)
[Nexus 6  General] Lebage:
Look I really want my phone and as a 10/19 GPS pre-order person, I'm hopeful that I'll get it this upcoming week. But, I don't understand how Google "implied" we'd be the first people to get it. Sure, they were the first company to offer the pre-order, but does that in itself mean we'll get the phone first? Not necessarily. And personally, I'm not "offended" that Moto, the manufacturer of the phone, is sending them sooner.

Anyways, after all these reviews that I couldn't give two ****s about, I can't wait to get my hands on my midnight blue!!
[Nexus 6  General] Aboveboard1:
Unfortunately if there's no reason to complain until we get the phone, then there's no reason to have this tread continue and say anything else until it ships.
[Nexus 6  General] donatom3:
If there isn't already you're welcome to start one.
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
Honestly, I see alot of people complaining, and this is their first Nexus phone purchase. They don't realize, the fun is in the errors! The Nexus 4 launch was the worst/best. People ordered on launch day and received their phone a month later, while other people bought their phone a week after launch and had it next day. There was no thing as FIFO. It seems like it was more LIFO.

The best fun was acutally the comraderie, and the "ocaasional" going off topic in the Nexus 4 shipping thread. We had fun, we didn't bi*ch and moan, and we saw how far off topic we could get with the mods before they warned us lol (shhhhhh)

We will all get what we ordered. If you don't get it in the time specified when you ordered, GPS will refund your shipping charges. They did for us in the N4 debacle. Remember, all high-end phone launches have issues. iPhone 6 and Note 4 had stock issues as well.

"Badges, we don't need no stinkin' badges!"
[Nexus 6  General] jimbridgman:
Thank you!!!

This is the most rational and accurate post that I have seen in this thread, in a long time.

I agree, everyone just hold out and wait for your turn in line. No one ever said google would ship first or that you would be the first kid on the block to have one if you got it from them. The one reason in the past is because google was the ONLY one selling these phones, this year is the first that carriers and even the manufacturer is selling them.

Also granted that Moto controls all the stock, so if they ship to their customers so that they have them on the 19th, as promised and google is either holding on to their stock until they can ship on the 17th or 18th it all makes sense.

My thought is that the official in hand date for everyone is going to be the 19th. This is just a thought and there is no real info to prove it, but think about it.

1) TMO pushed back the date to the 19th

2) Moto is putting phones in hands on the 19th (per their shipping promised date)

3) ATT is saying the 21st, but has changed to shipping out already with people getting UPS delivery dates on the 19th.

4) It is rumored that GPS will be shipping first batches tomorrow (11-17) to arrive on the 18th or 19th.

So, in conclusion I think the 19th is the date and that just happens to be 2 days earlier and google promised for shipping, for people to have them in hand.
[Nexus 6  General] ssgtob1:
Well said! If I get mine before 11/21 I will be extremely happy but if not, I will still be happy to have my 64GB Blue Nexus 6! And if it takes a few extra days to get the GPS orders that just means that the others had a few days to work out the bugs for us!
[Nexus 6  General] droidguy22:
11:37 am (est)	International shipment release - Import	MEMPHIS, TN

Hoping for "Out for Delivery" status on Fedex tomorrow morning..
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
For those that ordered the Nexus 5 last year and got the shipping notification on a Sunday, what time and time zone was it when you got the email?
[Nexus 6  General] jimbridgman:
I had my shipping confirmation the same day I ordered it on 10/31/13, at about 11:53 PM CDT. I had it in hand on 11/4/13 at 1 PM.

I never got a Sunday shipping email last year, I got my tracking number in the email noted above

This is not a good indication of what may happen here.
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
Winter is coming
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
I read either here or on Reddit that some people didn't get shipping notifications until Sunday 11/3/13
[Nexus 6  General] toyfreak:
Here's the latest on my order:

11/16/2014 - Sunday

11:37 am	International shipment release - Import	MEMPHIS, TN

FedEx sent me a text message saying a package is scheduled for delivery but web site still says N/A.
[Nexus 6  General] scmobileman:
7:52 AM EST on 11/3. Four days after I placed my order.
[Nexus 6  General] bholyk:
That makes two of us!
[Nexus 6  General] GCahill:
Well that makes me a lot less optimistic that I was going to get a notification today.
[Nexus 6  General] bholyk:
I noticed the same thing yesterday that someone else mentioned...that since the delivery estimate became n/a you no longer have the option to sign ahead of time and leave it at the door. Now that my shipment is in the US and i still have no estimated delivery date like some other people, I guess there is the possibility that a delivery estimate will not show up again and that sign ahead option will not become available. I dont know if it will work, but in case the option does not become available again I went online and found the fedex door slip that is printable. I figured I would share the link for others in case it becomes necessary.

[Nexus 6  General] idonthavename.7:
Thats cool. Let us know your impression when you get the device.
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
I got the email Sunday night somewhere between 11:30pm and 12:30am, EST
[Nexus 6  General] hsj1906:
Same here. No estimated date of delivery. [emoji26]
[Nexus 6  General] markwebb:
Is there an option for will call to pick up at FedEx center?
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
It should still be here tomorrow according to FedEx. It's not showing a delivery date did to an error on their website or at least that's what I was told.
[Nexus 6  General] bholyk:
It was an option until I lost the estimated delivery date, now it is gone
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
Seriously praying for GPS to start shipping out tomorrow, cause if mine ships out tomorrow, I'll have it on tuesday my day off lol
[Nexus 6  General] mk92595:
What time does Google usually ship phones?
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
If you don't mind, what state are you in? Just trying to figure out if mine will be here tomorrow haha
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
It says Memphis, Tennessee lol
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
I asked what state the person was in, not the shipment.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
I think he said in an earlier post he was hoping to get it tomorrow and waiting for status to change to out for delivery. He must also be in Tennessee.
[Nexus 6  General] kornklown69:
So glad i bought from google play instead of at&t... its confirmed the at&t branding is on the back of that model
[Nexus 6  General] dadsterflip:
Well.. Any 11/26 guys around lol. Hoping it ships earlier then said..

I can only see where Verizon adds the logo. Att isn't as bad but looks crowded doh.
[Nexus 6  General] J.Guido85:
I don't understand why people on here are angry with Google and how their handling orders from the play store. Everyone is seeing a date of 11/21 and they already have stock. The reason you are seeing Motorola ship now is, because they are coming from China.

No one here should be angry until it's past your delivery date and nothing arrived. I was told 11/21 and I expect it to arrive on or by that date. Google has never failed me..
[Nexus 6  General] hsj1906:
What state are you in?

Edit: Nevermind. I see you are at Penn State. [emoji1]
[Nexus 6  General] ccoulterjg1:
So I ordered my 64GB White Nexus 6 from Motorola on Wednesday the 12th..........says its estimated delivery date is the 9th of December. I like all of your dates better.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
Mine is 11/26. Ours should ship out Thursday if it all follows the same logic the 11/19 guys shipped out.
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
Mine just left Memphis 10 minutes ago, so it looks like it could be delivered tomorrow. Not getting my hopes up, but it would certainly be nice :)
[Nexus 6  General] hsj1906:
I just called FedEx regarding the delivery date. He couldn't confirm a date, but said that based on his experiences, it should arrive tomorrow or on Tuesday at the latest. I'm in Northern Virginia/Washington, DC area.

Fingers crossed!
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
That's good,maybe something changed since I last spoke to them. At least it will be here soon :)
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
Confirmed where? I'd be interested to read.
[Nexus 6  General] housry23:
https://www.wireless.att.com/businesscenter/devices/moto-nexus-6.jsp#fbid=69rCUhhaFln
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
That looks pretty awful... I certainly hope that's just a mockup, but I have a feeling it isn't.
[Nexus 6  General] ccoulterjg1:
Wow, that is awful. Looks like a damn billboard with all that branding.
[Nexus 6  General] malinois16:
Why not just go to ATT website and look at the Nexus 6 pictures they posted at their website. Specefically the back view.
[Nexus 6  General] housry23:
I agree! The HUGE nexus is already waaay too much, plus the Moto M logo. Then they go and add a deathstar to it. Imagine how cluttered the VZW one will be!
[Nexus 6  General] ccoulterjg1:
Verizon will probably replace the Nexus Logo with a giant Verizon and then put a small Nexus at the bottom.
[Nexus 6  General] hsj1906:
Worst carrier branding ever was VZW on the Note 2 with Verizon inked on the home button! Can't get worse than that. Lol
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
Thanks for the link. Wow, that looks horrible. The two carriers that sold the Nexus 5 in the US never bothered to put branding on those. I hope they won't with the Nexus 6. It takes away from the whole "Google Play experience".

---------- Post added at 05:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

It shouldn't be assumed that everyone knows AT&T has it up on their website. I am not a customer of AT&T and had no idea. If I did, I would have looked before asking.
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
Be careful what you wish for...
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
I just threw up a little bit...
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
Fedex said packages will start moving again around midnight and will be delivered tomorrow unless there's bad weather.
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
Sweet, I called the automated system and it said it's currently moving to the local FedEx center that distributes packages locally so it's very possible it could be here tomorrow.

Not gonna hold my breath until I see a nice little box on the doorstep, though.
[Nexus 6  General] Qbancelli:
I have nothing against the logo in the back. If you want it on the cheap you deserve it.
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
Guys, please do not believe a single thing any FedEx rep says. They all do not know what they are talking about. Lol.

Being employees at FedEx for 11 years now. Not a single one has given any good information ever. So DO NOT BELIEVE WHAT FEDEX REPS SAYS.

And for those who care, the back is hard plastic. Not soft. Also I was very under whelmed. Its not big by any means. Its average sized honestly. Those saying its "HUGE" must have tiny tiny hands.
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
I agree, has the website updated to reflect that for you?
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
Pic...
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
It's not that big, people must be used to small things in their hands...
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
Its really not. I assumed it would be heavier/bigger. Can't say I was disappointed, just under whelmed. However the size to screen ratio is very nice.
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
Yup, says it left Memphis about an hour ago now. My guess is it's headed to Philly and will be shot up tomorrow for delivery Tuesday. It's pretty much just a guessing game now haha
[Nexus 6  General] Qbancelli:
So was I. I left the Tmobile store wanting to cancel my order.

That dim screen was a big turn off.
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
The screen was not dim by any means. It was actually brighter than my note 3. Not sure what you had the brightness on. However it was PLENTY bright.
[Nexus 6  General] Qbancelli:
Not the one I tested. I usually kept my N5 at Iess than 50%, and it was fine. On the N6 only at 100% was aceptable. Plus the display color was way to warm for my taste.

I played with it for 30 minutes, and tested it fully.
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
Weird, this one was half, and PLENTY bright. I actually turned down the brightness.
[Nexus 6  General] 2015Ducatimulti:
yeah mine too the FDX505 plane is suppose to arrive about 7pm for me in detroit, usually from there it goes to another Fedex express only for next day and 2 day packages thats 45 mins away from the airport, so I`m thinking my Moto X and my Nexus 6 should be here tomorrow:fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
Looks like my flight just landed, I'll update here when FedEx does
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
Mine just updated at 5:19 central time and says it left. Their website is very slow at updating, mine is probably going through Philly or Pittsburgh or Harrisburg
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
Have you noticed the stated weight on the FedEx website for the Moto orders have also dropped from 2.2 lbs? I looked one up , and now it shows 1.8lbs and the size of the box (although now shown in inches instead of cm) has shrunk to the size of the boxes by the supposed GPS shipments. 13x12x3"
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
Yeah and its in inches instead of cm too now.
[Nexus 6  General] Nucleonic:
Mine left Memphis about assn hour ago. Fed Ex still showing N/A for delivery date. I do wonder if it will deliver tomorrow vs Wed.
[Nexus 6  General] Namolas:
Really is a beautiful device. I am very excited, although I don't think they will be delivering any in Utah tomorrow. :crying:
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
But does yours show 13" x 12" x 3" also? Thats smaller than what was stated (in cm) before they left Memphis.
[Nexus 6  General] 2015Ducatimulti:
I`m thinking the delivery date will update once it gets to the local delivery facility :good:
[Nexus 6  General] elementaldragon:
Really ridiculous that there's still NOT A PEEP from Google in regards to shipping or even CHARGING people for their phones...
[Nexus 6  General] toyfreak:
Mine arrived in my hometown of Indianapolis a half hour ago so I should have it tomorrow. Estimated delivery still says N/A FWIW.
[Nexus 6  General] buffalowolff:
I'm resigned to it shipping on the 21st as stated. The credit auth that came through last thursday night has expired again. Oh well.
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
Yup...so moto orders might have theirs by tomorrow, GPS preorders we have no clue if they're even at the distribution/fullfilment center in Kentucky...I can't even bring myself to go get the ATT version since they're branding the back!!
[Nexus 6  General] donatom3:
Yeah how dare they give us a date of the 21st for shipping, and not ship it early despite them never promising anything more than the 21st.
[Nexus 6  General] elementaldragon:
Yes.... how dare they give us a date of leaving the warehouse BY the 21st (which is confusing, cause the My Orders page says leaves BY the 21st... but if you click the info page, it says leaves ON the 21st).... since we all know that Google has NEVER shipped out a nexus device before the date they showed it shipping out by. [/sarcasm]

Seriously.... The first pre-orders from Google were started nearly a week before Moto's own orders... and yet they already practically have them in hand, yet those of us who ordered through GPS are looking at no sooner than Tuesday at this point.... although if they DON'T leave until the 21st, then we're looking at basically getting ours a week AFTER Moto's orders.
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
Shocking, Motorola ships the devices they make earlier than any of the resellers.
[Nexus 6  General] mk92595:
Just calm down and wait till tomorrow
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
Guess I was watching the wrong flight, just updated to Arrived in Newark, NJ.

Should be interesting to see if it moves anywhere tonight, I've gotten plenty of things from there the day after it arrives in Newark.
[Nexus 6  General] elementaldragon:
Technically, no, since people have already apparently gotten Nexus 6's from T-Mobile and such. So even that doesn't really justify it.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Or next week, in my case.
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
The way I see it is, Motorola is the manufacturer, Google is a distributor. Of freakin course it could be that people get it first from them. They're the source!
[Nexus 6  General] elementaldragon:
.... again... T-Mobile even has them available first. Where's the logic in that one?
[Nexus 6  General] 2015Ducatimulti:
sweet, yeah mine should be updating soon, mine just landed Detroit, from there it goes to Jackson, which is a 45 min drive and usually it should leaving in the morning to head there to be put on the truck.:D
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
Technically, they haven't, not until the 19th. The few stores that sold them weren't supposed til the 19th.
[Nexus 6  General] SuperTongue:
Just switched to In Transit, so it should be at my local distribution center later tonight and on the truck tomorrow :)

And even if it doesn't get on a truck, I'm only 20 minutes away from the distribution center haha
[Nexus 6  General] ericerk:
Everyone's all upset about shipping and I can't even buy one...
[Nexus 6  General] DrexelDragon:
That's not how it works..
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
I don't care how it works, I didn't say that. It just makes sense to me.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Obviously it is.

Google generally completely screwed up their release...and apparently did not contractually bind Moto to not selling the N6 via their own retail channels until after Google "preorders" had shipped.
[Nexus 6  General] clubtech:
It's kinda odd that not a single person has a confirmed delivery date on the Fedex website, even though the phones are past customs and in the US. You all should have had a confirmed delivery date by now. I'm thinking that maybe Fedex has instructions from motorola / google not to deliver until a certain date.

I ordered many phone using Fedex from many countries and there is always an estimated delivery date. It's never "N/A"
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
It will definitely be here tomorrow for me judging by where it is.
[Nexus 6  General] Sentrix27:
Same here. Near the major city I'm outside of.

Happy to be wrong about it not moving on Sunday. Looks like I'll have it tomorrow morning.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Okay kids, y'all getting your devices this week need to get root working and encryption sorted out by next week.

So us 2nd batch people can live off the fruits of your labor and relax ;)
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
I stated this earlier a few times, but FedEx is having technical issues with their website.
[Nexus 6  General] electroncarl:
That's the spirit, thanks!
