Best buy will only price match the 32gb. They refuse to price match the 64gb
[Nexus 6  General] tee00max:
Just took advantage of this offer from my local Best Buy and will go and pick it up tomorrow. I missed having a secondary android device alongside my iPhone.
[Nexus 6  General] M9x3mos:
My best buy doesn't carry the 64 gb version. Sad that Amazon takes so long to ship them though. Been waiting a few days already and will be another week yet.
[Nexus 6  General] quailallstar:
Mine should be here today by 8pm. Ordered it last Friday and have prime. Funny thing is the order originally said arriving the 22nd, then the dates started to become closer and closer as more stock came in. :silly:
[Nexus 6  General] tee00max:
Went and picked mine up yesterday evening. Already bootloader unlocked, rooted, and running custom ROM. Love being back on stock android.
[Nexus 6  General] cz829x18:
I ordered mine friday from amazon and it will be here today sometime with prime shipping. Didn't even ship out until last night about 8pm. This will be my first Nexus phone. I'm currently using a Samsung Galaxy S4 but it will be nice to unlock the bootloader.
[Nexus 6  General] SirBindy:
I ordered mine from Best Buy on Monday and it arrived early this morning. Too bad I don't get out of work until 7:30 tonight :(
[Nexus 6  General] wolfen69:
I flashed the Project Fi zip, and then the Hells-Core kernel, man is it speedy. Turned off animations too. Things happen almost instantly. I don't know how people can deal with bloatware and skins. I've never been happier with a Nexus phone. Screw the new Nexus, my N6 is blazing new trails.
[Nexus 6  General] steve0617:
SIM swapping from an active SIM works perfectly as I came from my 2013 Moto X. And you *shouldn't* have any problem activating a new line/account with the non VZW branded N6. That was a major pain before but it is supposedly rectified. Of course, you could run into an idiot at the store (if you go that route) but it *should* activate without any problems.
[Nexus 6  General] zenlifexxa:
Just received the Nexus 6 (32gb) from Amazon with prime shipping.

Still waiting for my Project Fi sim card ...hopefully the sim card arrives soon.
[Nexus 6  General] scryan:
I'm a VZW S4 survivor. Actually made a brief detour through the 2013 Moto X dev....

This is so much ****ing better. No hoops, exploits or worries. You just flash stuff :cowboy:
[Nexus 6  General] cz829x18:
You got that right. Got mine all unlocked, rooted, twrp installed and just finnished setting up a custom rom. So much easier. I'm really gonna like this phone.
[Nexus 6  General] M9x3mos:
Cool. Mine looks like it will be doing tomorrow and have it Friday. Ordered the 64 gb version from Amazon and didn't look like it would ship till the 17th. Now I just need to wait for my project fi invite.
[Nexus 6  General] Faith_G3:
Wanted to order this but due to it not working with 4G in the UK I managed to find a deal on amazon.fr. 64GB cloud white for £350.

My first Nexus device too, coming from a Galaxy Note Edge.
[Nexus 6  General] Sportster71:
Pulled my lost Nexus 5 out of the washing machine today, read all about how to fix it and ordered a 32GB Nexus 6 from Amazon for $349.

Now I'm going to take Hammerhead apart and wait for Shamu. I just noticed Marshmallow preview is available from Google. It's all good!
[Nexus 6  General] mrro82:
Just ordered the 64gb version. Way too good a deal to pass up especially since this is still a relevant phone.
[Nexus 6  General] theoretically:
Just got mine too. 64gb cloud white. Loving it
[Nexus 6  General] mrro82:
I went the white route with my nexus 5. I didn't like that the only white was the backing and ear speaker. Pretty much the same with the nexus 6. If they went all white like what Samsung does, that would be great.
[Nexus 6  General] theoretically:
I agree. I didn't wanna go with the midnight blue though, not a fan of the color. White was a no brainer on this one for me
[Nexus 6  General] mrro82:
I'm putting mine in a case so I guess it's a moot point either way lol.
[Nexus 6  General] atesc:
I just received my Nexus 6 yesterday, I love it, and the backplate is already peeling away from the body. Did anyone else experience this issue, and I thought they fixed this issue? I got the 64gb model from amazon.com.
[Nexus 6  General] cz829x18:
I didn't notice on mine, but I got a case on it now. I thought they fixed that issue too but I guess not. I got mine from amazon last week.
[Nexus 6  General] hands0m3:
I got the midnight blue and replaced the back panel with the cloud white it looks great
[Nexus 6  General] jrobin:
Should have mine tomorrow. 64gb white. I returned my 64gb blue that I ordered 9 days before the sale when Amazon would not refund the difference. Ordered it the day they went on sale. Paid for next day and for some reason Amazon sent it ground instead [emoji33] [emoji35]
[Nexus 6  General] 26.2man:
can you post a picture? Im getting a blue one and want to see what you are talking about.
[Nexus 6  General] atesc:
http://images.techtimes.com/data/images/full/37801/nexus-6.jpg

This is a bit worse than how mine looks right now. Amazon has already sent me a replacement. I asked them to make sure it's from a different batch. Who knows what they will actually send me.
[Nexus 6  General] KootchieKoo:
I ordered the blue 64 GB from Amazon for $399 on Monday, September 7. The original delivery window was September 22-26 but they shipped it today and delivery is scheduled for tomorrow, the 17th. I will be glad to get on a better phone, I've been stuck on a Nexus 4 with 4.2.2, the phone has the strange bootloop error when upgraded to 4.3 or 4.4.
[Nexus 6  General] linkboy:
Just ordered a 64GB blue from Amazon. Was debating between the N6 and the Moto X, but decided to go with the Nexus.
[Nexus 6  General] mprowland:
I returned my Moto X Pure for the Nexus 6. The screen is much better on the 6(amoled vs tft). No regrets so far!
[Nexus 6  General] blyndfyre:
Where did you get the cloud white back cover? How does it look with the blue side/top/bottom trim? Could you provide any pictures?
[Nexus 6  General] machinist25:
Coming from the N5 that I've owned since launch, I've been looking at the 2015 Nexus devices with anticipation as I'm interested in a larger screen. But this deal was too much phone to pass up for the money; the 2015 large device will certainly be hundreds of dollars more for a marginal upgrade. My N6 comes tomorrow from Amazon.
[Nexus 6  General] mrro82:
I got my 64GB blue Nexus 6 last night. The back isn't coming apart like the above pics thankfully.
[Nexus 6  General] Atmydesktyping:
I just got the 32GB one from best buy. If they don't have it in stock there (which was my case), you can order it there in the store and have it ship there or to your house. It was about a 3 day wait when I had it shipped to the store because they said it would take a couple days longer if it shipped to my house.
[Nexus 6  General] quailallstar:
I have yet to open my white 64 N6 from Amazon... Been so busy with work that I'm still rocking the BlackBerry Z30. This weekend I'll open her up and root.
[Nexus 6  General] hayzooos:
This was pretty much my exact thinking as well, but I had only had the N5 for a little over a year. Bought it from Swappa back then. Very, very happy with the N6 so far, I'm sure you will be as well.

I was 99% sure I was going to get the 2015 N5, but when I saw this deal, I couldn't pass it up.
[Nexus 6  General] ChaosBlades:
I have had my Nexus 5 since launch and it has slowly been dying for the past few weeks now and today it finally took its final breath. Pretty sure it has bad RAM or Flash Storage. Never dropped it and no water damage, it literally still looks brand new. I was waiting for the Nexus 5X but now that isn't an option. I didn't want to get a Nexus 6 because I didn't think I would like that huge of a phone. Anyways I just got back from Best Buy... They are sold out across my entire region so I ended up getting it from Amazon with Saturday shipping. Should be here tomorrow. I will probably wait a few months after the Nexus 5X is released and decide then if I want to side grade.
[Nexus 6  General] mem4720:
$300 for 32GB White

http://m.ebay.com/itm/191693830154
[Nexus 6  General] machinist25:
Now that I've got it I think the screen is great. This has a premium feel. I've been using my phones with two hands for years so didn't find the move to the big screen awkward. I already miss the m preview, so will be unlocking and flashing asap.
[Nexus 6  General] mrro82:
I thought this was just too big of a phone but I'm used to it now. Loving it so far.
[Nexus 6  General] felix168:
I am wondering if Amazon is sending out the ones that have the build date of Oct 2014. Someone claimed those were the ones that have the battery expansion/back plate detaching issues.

I was going to pull the trigger on a 64gb model, however, after seeing reviews on Amazon of some of those who just got theirs recently, I'm on the fence now :confused:
[Nexus 6  General] quailallstar:
How can you tell when your Nexus 6 was manufactured?
[Nexus 6  General] felix168:
not sure if the date is labeled on the box, but according to someone who posted a review on Amazon, "power on the phone volume down+ power then scroll to barcode to see manufacture date..."
[Nexus 6  General] cz829x18:
You have to boot into the bootloader mode by pressing power and volume up and down when the phone is off. Then scroll down with volume down until you see barcodes and then press power. Mine wasn't from October 2014 so I guess mine is ok.
[Nexus 6  General] mrro82:
Mine is March 23,2015. Is there a date that is the worst?
[Nexus 6  General] angrymanhands:
I am considering getting the 64 GB. I can't seem to pull the trigger though.
[Nexus 6  General] wolfen69:
Probably the first or second run in Oct./Nov. '14.
[Nexus 6  General] bigstunta101:
Mine was built on Valentine's day. Sweeet
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Snagged one from amazon.. Its a new 64gb version with damaged box for 339$
[Nexus 6  General] Gysper:
I just bought mine last week. Was deciding if I wanted to keep it or return it but ultimately decided to keep it. Got the 32gb midnight blue from best buy. Manufacturing date was 8-15-15. Feels good on the hands and it takes a but to getting used to but it's a good upgrade over my LG Optimus G.
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
I'm coming from a note 3. This will be my first nexus device.. Cant wait. Not many options left with verizon since everything is locked down...
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
Me too!! 339.00 is a great buy for a 64gb.:highfive:
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Awesome.. What color.. I went with the blue but kinda wish i went with white and got the carbonn fiber vinyl for the back cover. The silver frame looks better.. I like blacked out phones never been big on the white iphone look
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
the blue...not a fan of white.
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Ueah stickin with the blue.. Kinda reminds me of the s3 color.. Looked good initially then kinda turned into a light purple
[Nexus 6  General] sirgoob:
Mine was built Aug 23 2015
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Well my 64gb blue came in.. Looks mint build date of 3/15. Am seeing an issue with the screen splitting into 2 frames with 1 being shifted down 3/8" from the other frame.. Turning screen off then back on resolves the issue.. This didn't start right away.. Not sure if I should return to Amazon, Motorola, or wait to see what the nexus 6p brings..
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
you need to return the device...that is a hardware problem that a few others experienced from what I have read.
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
How did yours turn out?
[Nexus 6  General] quailallstar:
Just unboxed my Nexus 6 (about freaking time!) Build date is February 14, 2015 Valentine's Day. Now if Project fi SIM cards were only back in stock :silly:

My Blackberry Z30 is still working on decrypting my MicroSD card so that I can transfer things into the white whale. :good:
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
perfect so far!!
[Nexus 6  General] quailallstar:
So given that Expansys has the Nexus 6 for less than Amazon, thought I would reach out to Amazon for a price match. It worked! I was polite and said I wanted to keep the device but that I was disappointed in that another website had it for less. Kindness always works best in any customer service issue (even if your pissed).

My original order details:

Item(s) Subtotal: $399.99 Nexus 6 white 64 gig

Shipping & Handling: $0.00

Prime Savings: -$25.00

Total before tax: $374.99

Estimated tax to be collected: $0.00

Gift Card Amount: -$374.99

Grand Total: $0.00 (Ordered Sept 4th)

Refund Total: $30.00 (given this today 9/25/15 via price match!)

Amazon rocks!
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Awesome.. Seems like custom kernels brings the worst out of my phone with the split screen issue.. Requesting refund now
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
Hopefully the replacement well be trouble free for you!
[Nexus 6  General] atesc:
Sadly I returned my Nexus 6 and bought the Moto X Pure Edition, I went through 4 of them, 3 back issues and 1 screen issue.
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Mine was an open box... So its build date was in march 2015. After buying mine i have noticed that they have ran out of open box inventory. So if you get one now it should have a newer build date.. But it could still be an issue.. No skin off my back.. Free shipping both ways.. So its worth a shot. Others have done better
[Nexus 6  General] bcltoys:
Are these phone's the US model,I have seen a couple of people on Amazon reviews say they received the International model.
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
my build date is Aug 2015

yes...they did not pay attention to the listing. all the reviews get grouped together on amazon.
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Yes.. Its XT1103 which is for all USA carrier's. One of those reviews was from a guy who bought an international version else where. Just dont get a xt1100..
[Nexus 6  General] felix168:
That's terrible. I have read much about that back peeling issue. In my opinion, it could be a design flaw. The back was glued on, and I guess when it's not cured correctly, plus heat coming from the battery, it would eventually peeled off. Some guy said it's an easy fix, however, when I buy a phone, I'm not into fixing and patching. Thanks for the head up. Guess I will skip the Nexus 6. Even though Amazon would take back the defective ones in exchange, that company is notorious for closing people's account when they "feel" those who abuse their generous return policy (key word here, "feel").

Like you, I am considering the Moto X Pure Edition. Last year on Cyber Monday, they had $140 off on Moto X. Maybe they will do the same this Thanksgiving?
[Nexus 6  General] bigstunta101:
I've had two nexus 6 devices now and not a single problem with the back peeling or anything. Every device will have its fare share of defective devices. Judging a phone based on a few defective products is dumb but whatever. To each their own
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
Well.. Just found a 32gb mint condition on Craigslist for 240$.. Since its 100$ cheaper then the 64gb i got with the display issue I guess I'm keeping it and just sending the other back without exchanging it.. Either way I'm hooked on the nexus aosp and loving all of the devs on xda..
[Nexus 6  General] st3rox:
Ordered one yesterday and got a free trial of prime with 2 days shipping, it gets here tomorrow! So excited to upgrade from my gen 1 moto G, the 1gb of RAM is seriously lacking
[Nexus 6  General] wolfen69:
Going from the Moto G to a Nexus 6 is a HUGE jump. You'll love it.
[Nexus 6  General] st3rox:
Yeah I know, I had a Nexus 4 before the G but it broke, got the G to fill in until the next Nexus but the 5X is seriously underwhelming and the 6P is out of my price range
[Nexus 6  General] CheCorchete:
I almost buy it, but it went out of stock. I hope they added soon.
[Nexus 6  General] rowbaggie22:
Any thoughts on sum1 like me goin from lg g4 to a nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
If you want stock Android that gets timely updates then you will like it. If camera and other accessories are your main priority, the G4 is probably better.
[Nexus 6  General] rowbaggie22:
I'm not into that no but I do like themes and stuff is that themes on nexus 6 customizations and stuff
[Nexus 6  General] jsteelfex:
I saw this deal. Is the phone damaged at all, or is it ok?
[Nexus 6  General] fiverings:
I bought one from Amazon, 64gb for $399 it's brand new, perfect and I'm very happy I bought it. It's working great on Fi and glad I didn't wait for the 6p, I feel I got a better deal and saved some money. I loving the 6" screen.
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
like brand new!
[Nexus 6  General] stinger4321:
I bought the same one.. Phone was mint condition but had the defective screen splitting image issue... So I had to return.. But good chance yours will be fine.. But Motorola gives you a 1 year warranty on the openbox so your covered
[Nexus 6  General] PolishDude:
Unfortunately mine from amazon just came with a generic charger although the phone was in perfect condition. I managed to get a new one off the ebay deal for $280. So I will be returning the amazon one and keeping the new one coming from ebay.
[Nexus 6  General] sd_matto:
With respect to Nexus 6 Cloud White, 64gb, Amazon now seems to be shipping refurbs as BNIB. At least, the last two that I have received have had status of "Device Lock = 2" (showing previous bootloader unlock, then re-lock), and a "Software: MODIFIED" status when I boot phone into bootloader mode. Otherwise, the phones seem absolutely pristine.

Should I be worried by the refurb status (i.e., and get a return/refund), or should I just accept it (and try to get a price adjustment)?

Thanks in advance for any thoughts/opinions.
[Nexus 6  General] CyberGhos:
Is it even legal for Amazon to do this? Selling refurb phone and advertise as new?
[Nexus 6  General] chromatica86:
Got my Nexus 6 sunday thanks to this amazing deal. Now if I could just get my project fi sim card before my nex sprint bill cycle. lol
[Nexus 6  General] quailallstar:
Wait a second... My phone says: Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 2 Does this mean it's been unlocked and relocked? Not cool....
[Nexus 6  General] jst07:
I'm not sure about this, can anyone confirm? I just got my Amazon Warehouse deal, and it has this same thing. It could be an open box return so I suppose its possible.

On that note, for anyone curious about the warehouse deal, my 64gb blue N6 was listed as:

Condition: Used - Very Good - Item is in original packaging, but packaging has damage. Small (less than 1/4" x 1/4") cosmetic imperfection on front of item.

My phone was only in a plastic bag and didn't have any plastic on the screen like I'm used to seeing, so it may be an open box. However, the device itself was mint, not a single scratch or nick on it anywhere that I could see so I'm happy with it. The turbo charger had some minor scuffs, so maybe it has been used but I don't care about that. The packaging was in rough condition like they mention. I haven't spent enough time with it to know if every feature is functioning yet, other than it does power on. Also, the date on it is 2015-04-10 if anyone is curious.
[Nexus 6  General] mrro82:
Mine says status 3
[Nexus 6  General] 903tex:
Yep same thing with my eBay one I got for 299. Just got it today and already experiencing the spilt screen issue.....called Motorola for exchanged and they said its been out of warranty but when I got phone they said BNIB. they said if I email seller and they can confirm its new then I will get my warranty back. Or I can pay 125 to send me a refurbished n6 from Motorola........ Is the spilt screen issue the LCD or is it a motherboard issue?
[Nexus 6  General] sd_matto:
I ended up contacting Amazon, and getting a $60 credit (my argument was that I would either take a price match to the refurb price, or return the item; they price matched).

Great phone, running rooted stock M with Hells-core kernel; AMAZING battery life.
[Nexus 6  General] jst07:
Having trouble with Sprint not wanting to activate my device since it isn't from them. Anyone have any experience with this?
[Nexus 6  General] leondestiny:
just received my Nexus 6 and damn its gorgeous ! , just need to renew my sim card as it is a old version/type !

this phone is a BEAST ! and it is beautiful soo much in love with this baby :3
[Nexus 6  General] jst07:
So I went to a Sprint store today and they weren't able to activate it either, but we're more helpful. They believed the ESN to be in their system, but thought the device may be active on a 3rd party carrier. As mine was a Warehouse Deal that appeared to be an open box, that seems very plausible. I have a thread for this that I will keep updating for anyone that might have the same issue in the future -> http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/help/unlocked-n6-amazon-sprint-t3220389

On a brighter note, I was able to get Amazon to send me a BNIB unit to replace mine, so I'll take the little extra hassle to get a new 64gb model for $339.99 :)
[Nexus 6  General] meoshe:
I just received mine from amazon and it went right back. The packaging was brand new but the screen film was funny looking so I booted straight into bootloader and sure enough it said modified and status code 2. Amazon is replacing it with a verified new device although I will check it anyway. I don't think amazon is doing it purposely but also they don't verify they are not refurbs.
[Nexus 6  General] jst07:
I've seen a few people say theirs came new that way, I think that's just how they are. Have you found something to the contrary?
[Nexus 6  General] meoshe:
I have not heard that, although if that was the case im sure people would have posted that. I doubt first day devices showed that status because that is indicating the bootloader was unlocked then relocked and a rooted rom used.
[Nexus 6  General] trent999:
My Amazon 32gig N6 just came with the shipping screen protector on it, new in a sealed box. It says "Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 2" on the AP Fastboot Flash Mode screen.

No mention of "modified" I can see.

So far I have not done anything to it.
[Nexus 6  General] quailallstar:
Same findings here and mine has a build date of Feb 14th 2015.
[Nexus 6  General] PolishDude:
They all say 2
[Nexus 6  General] meoshe:
The issue was the software status: modified label, with the device status being 2 meaning they rooted or something else then relocked it. Either way it has been in someone's hands and they were tinkering when amazon says it was new. They even verified it should have been new not in "like new" condition so they did not ask me if I wanted a discount they instantly shipped a new one out.
[Nexus 6  General] sirgoob:
I bought one from amazon and mine shows status code 2, does this mean it wasn't a brand new phone as they sold it as?
[Nexus 6  General] droidstyle:
status 2 is what they all say new...
[Nexus 6  General] meoshe:
Device status: 2 is normal, mine had the software status: modified <--- that was the problem with mine because they are not rooted from the factory.
[Nexus 6  General] sirgoob:
Thanks for the info

First lol. Is this official touchwiz lollipop?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pvsgh:
No, it is still 4.4.4 with Stagefright Fix, probably might be some more changes. No lollipop yet.
