I could agree with this on an average. On note5 i had to click two shots cuz one or other would be shaky or another problem with it.
[Nexus 6P General] dhruvmalik:
Those look like Screen Shots.

If not, then thats an awesome display. Wanna trade?:p:p:p
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
I get your point.

Your displeasure on us talking negative things about the phone, sounds like un-XDA to me.

There is a difference between 1st time successful replacement and 3rd time unsuccessful replacement.

Hope you get it.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
Kya yaar. Disappointing. I was hoping your replacement (and those who got their replacements in the last couple of days) would be good. Based on that I thought I'd go ahead with another replacement (or refund & new purchase) whatever be the case.

Looks like the 11/11 has an issue (perhaps?). Perhaps we wait for the year end and end the year with a bang - a wonderful phone.....

I'd definitely be MOST interested to know if anyone got a Dec Build. Wanted to know when it's hitting the markets. And if anyone's got it, then how's the quality.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
My second device for another family member is also up for a replacement, so let's not judge things so fast. I only requested you guys to not extend it way too much, rest is upto each one to decide.
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
Since the type C cables are available in google store now, I assume the device listing is also gonna happen soon. So wait for a week atleast, provided you are well within the 30 day replacement time.

Yeah, we can drag it all night long ;), But lets stop it here. You please don't read out posts for the time being, :p
[Nexus 6P General] SpiritBreak3r:
You'll have to increase the beacon interval from the Router settings. Lower the beacon interval, max is the battery drain. Have it around 100-200.

Nice article, mine was 100 as default and I changed to 350 after reading this. Let's see how it effectively it works now.
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
Source: "All purchases made from December 8, 2015 through December 25, 2015 can still be returned through January 22, 2016."

If this is the case, then we can assume that the device will be listed for sale before Dec 25.

Do post the results.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
I saw this earlier. However, I feel a little left out. Wouldn't it be unfair to us, that we aren't able to take advantage of this offer.....yet?
[Nexus 6P General] sriraviprasad:
How is Googles return policy? Will they accept return without asking any questions.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
I don't know. I have never purchased from there before to return it.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
Thanks bro will go and check at home. I hope it helps.
[Nexus 6P General] sriraviprasad:
I have seen so many posts here abt - ppl waiting for google's offering. If their return policy is like amazon then that is an offer everybody is waiting for. However, I am apprehensive that google wont provide any offer/discounts clubbing with the product launch.

I guess all the N 6P's would be manufactured at same place with same quality control team. Hopefully, they get it right in next batch.
[Nexus 6P General] dhruvmalik:
I also was hoping for a newer batch cause the A64 went "Out Of Stock" which from my experience with the Nexus 6 last year meant new batches.

Ill get my Nexus 6 back from my buddy, buy him a Moto X Play instead, use this until Jan or so and try my luck then.

Depending on what you guys suggest with the new batches. (Guess thats what these threads are for).

P.S - Seems like they are really enforcing the Smart Check app every time. Just remember, when they make you run the app, be on another phone or they will ask you to call back. Also when the tests are ran, with the results, hit NO, which will send them the intimation of the issue being present.

IF YOU HIT YES, they WILL ask you to go to a customer service center which WILL be a pain. Also be calm and depressed of such cases.

NOTE: FK has 7 Call Centers in India, I got through to 3 today before having Aurangabad do the refund, they offered 5th Replacement but I declined (@Sultan of Speed)
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
I think I'll wait a bit. Looking at your observation about the new piece, I don't see any point in doing a replacement right now. Better to wait till the Nov stocks are over and they get into the Dec stocks. The only way I can get myself assured of a December stock is if I wait until the end of this month or beginning of January , and I have time until the 7th of january

And my 1st of 2 [MENTION=5091753]dbrandSkins[/MENTION] for #Nexus6P is here. Super excited.. #Black #Leather #Android https://t.co/wMajfGPhRd

Pretty Cool.

Have you heard of https://www.gadgetshieldz.in/ ?

They do a very good job just like DBrand or Slickwraps and they are desi; ship from India.

I have used them many many times even while I was in the states; just like Zagg or BestSkinsEver, they have clear wet skins and of course textured ones like DBrand.
[Nexus 6P General] Tanveerul:
Adaway is not blocking ads on google chrome... Is their a way to make those ad block by using Adaway ?

Note: I have latest host file parsed using Adaway app.

EDIT - Just now tried checking on apps & Adaway is not working on them as well. All ads are visible on apps also.

Any suggestion ?
[Nexus 6P General] nachiket_xda:
How much it cost you with shipping?
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
I purchased during sale and cost me around ₹900 for the Black Leather back and White Leather full Nexus Logo. 3 more Nexus Logo in different colours were sent FOC.

For my 2nd device I have ordered Black Carbon back with White Carbon Nexus Logo and it is on the way.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Yes, but I'm using Intelliarmor tempered screen protector which it s super cool and provides better protection. Plus dband skins are way better than all these skins incl slick wraps.

If you have TWRP installed, just flash the zip from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1916098 which will take care of your hosts file, no third party apps needed and you also don't need to update on regular basis. Worked great on all my devices incl Nexus6P.

Nexus 6p-Advice Required

Guys, I bought the nexus 6p Silver-32gb on Dec,8. Build date - 10/18/15 and month of import is 11/15. Found 3 noteworthy issues:

1. Whites in the display are not bright whites but warm whites. Kind of like slightly pale yellow.- Contacted Huawei India , they stated whites are made warm intentionally to protect the eyes.

- Enabled the SGRB mode on. Display looked better.

2. At lowest brigtness, slight (barely noticeable) pink tint at the top right corner. Is this a common issue ? as i have heard people commenting the same.

3. Also, the display is very slightly raised by 0.01mm above the power button. Although, this issue is barely noticeable unless one sees through the microscope.(though i use a full protection case , i rarely keep the back open) . Is it the way it is designed?

Other than the above 3 issues, device is picture perfect.

Please advise on the same. Should I go for a replacement?

I fear the replacement device could be more affected than my current one. Thanks :)
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Go for replacement if you have uneven pink / yellow Tint and not if the overall screen is warm but with even colours because that's how Amoled screen are supposed to be.
[Nexus 6P General] Salim Zhulkhrni:
well its warm white...the colors are even though..no problems with that..what about the opinion on the third issue ? Thanks :)

Guess I am noticing these issues cause I came from LCD panel of nexus 5 :D
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Microscope, 0.01mm really..?! ?
[Nexus 6P General] Salim Zhulkhrni:
well ..sorry for that term :D still very slightly raised above the power button ..barely noticeable until focused a lot.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
My naked eyes cannot find any such thing on both my devices frankly. If it doesn't bother you, just don't look for it.
[Nexus 6P General] Salim Zhulkhrni:
yaa..does not bother me much as I use a case :) also, with the past threads the units from 11/2015 build date sound to be defective ? Is that true ? just curious to know about it
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
No, it is not true that all units with build date 11/2015 or 11/11/2015 precisely are defective.
[Nexus 6P General] Salim Zhulkhrni:
okay..thanks for your advise..will settle with this phone itself :)
[Nexus 6P General] dhruvmalik:
On a Side note, I had a 11/10/15 which had a yellow tint, but it was not uniformed. The screen was much warmer.
[Nexus 6P General] Salim Zhulkhrni:
so you went for a replacement ?
[Nexus 6P General] dhruvmalik:
I did 4 replacements, 3 Pink screen issues, 1 warm and yellow spot screen.

Gave my last device for a refund 15 minutes ago.
[Nexus 6P General] exjc1986:

[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
You might get it soon..
[Nexus 6P General] Salim Zhulkhrni:
so your phone belongs to november batch not december :)
[Nexus 6P General] dhruvmalik:
Can you confirm it by going to your Bootloader, then Barcodes and see Manufactured Date
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
Yeah...luckily not having any screen issues.. ?
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
Lucky you. Enjoy the good phone.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
That's strange, my Nexus 6P and 7 have got the update. Still waiting for the Nexus 6 OTA.

If you're keen on the 601 update for the 6P, download and side load the update file. http://www.droid-life.com/2015/12/09/download-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-updates-for-nexus-devices/

Edit: Ordered from Play Store since most of them available on other sites are capable of charging and not data transfer.
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
The one on the Play Store is the safest bet. I'm ordering it today too. Ordered the standard USB-C USB-A cable two days ago.
[Nexus 6P General] exjc1986:
Thanks a lot... Will wait this week for the update, want to avoid the recovery root as much as possible... :)
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:

I've placed an order for IntelliGLASS today. I actually bought the above cheapo one just to manage till IntelliGLASS arrives, which takes time.
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
5th Phone on the way!

Got the 4th phone in the morning. Same pink tint issue; this time it is a bit worse than previous phone, nov 10th build though. Will get the replacement tomorrow morning. Felt like, silver is a bit grippier and sturdier than graphite.

One strange thing is, the silver 64GB is not available for purchase at the moment, yet the found a stock and shipped it to me.

Gave a deep thought about getting an iP6+. But it will be trade off between hardware quality (better in iPhone, specially the metal and battery) and software experience (better in Android). So decided to put off that idea at least for now.

Literally dying for google play store listings to open for N6P, hopefully by next week. Will play replacement game with FK till then.
[Nexus 6P General] hacksome:

Anyone using google keyboard with touch to save function for words?..This feature was there for the older versions(android 5.1.1).
[Nexus 6P General] ayush84:
how will play store help with phone quality? Flipkart has taken your phone back so many times, not sure what else they can do.

Also, people who go through 4-5 phones before they get a good piece, not sure how they are so unlucky.
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
A different/latest build date device, then again it's only a hope.

No issues with flipkart's service, but the uncertainty after 30 days replacement time.
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
Even I'd like to know this.
[Nexus 6P General] ayush84:
agree about the post 30 days issue, mine's coming up and I am a tad worried. Phone luckily has zero issues, except the latest bluetooth volume issue. Luckily, that's software.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
You cannot do that straight. You need to point out issues, take a refund and not a replacement and then place a new order again, preferably from a different ID.
[Nexus 6P General] hacksome:
But I do not see a refund option. It says only replace with a new piece in the returns option.
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
Feel lucky.

I'll be holding my 5th phone tomorrow morning, since the last 20 days.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
I'm curious & anxious to know on the quality of the phone with respect to the display. Any tints or so? Also, importantly, also curious to know the Build date of the phone (Bootloader -> Barcodes -> Build Date)

Build Date Please??? (Bootloader -> Barcodes -> Build Date)
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
You may call Flipkart and ask for refund and not replacement.
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
:)

Of all the phones I've received, the 3rd one was the best; read, less tint
[Nexus 6P General] rohit25:
To those playing the replacement game... You just might get lucky... It seems like by the time Google play store make available Nexus6P... A gold color variant might also get launched for more uniqueness.....
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
Gold variant is for US only.....at least as of now.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
I didnt know that. For me note5 gold variant was not so good. I still personally feel black is more subtle than any other colour.
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
where did you order IntelliGLASS from ? and how is the quality of the above one..
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Ordered it from their website (www.intelliarmor.com). Yeah, the quality seems to be fine. It doesn't have oleophobic coating though. Can't ask more for the price it's selling for.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
I have ordered leather pouch for nexus 6p. Once it arrives will be sharing my experience.
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
they do international shipping ?
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Yup. $7.99 is the shipping cost.

Mine is shipped already. It's coming via DHL Global Mail.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
How long does it takes to arrive ??
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Shouldn't take more than 10 days.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
Wow thats good. Its not bad, i guess for 12$ we get a pack of two right.
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Right. I bought the same. Used a discount coupon (WDG20) and got $2.59 off.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
Let me know how the glass stand up in the longer run. And also how good is the oleophobic covering.
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
No oleophobic coating as I mentioned before. Actually I wouldn't look for oleophobic coating on a ₹175 tempered glass screenguard.

If you meant on intelliglass, for sure!
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
am looking for something which I can order in India.. and around 300 to 500 rs.. which one should I go for ?
[Nexus 6P General] rohit25:
Kamine.... Well Flipkart doesn't budge from 2nd Nov date.... Seems like I have 2weeks to endure right now

Sent not from Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P General] PratikP:
Yup, it is definitely offered by LG and not specific to Amazon. I used Amazon as a reference for pre-lauch offers on 5x and 6p :laugh:

---------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 PM ----------

I personally think that the cover will be that of Huawei's and not Google's. The Chinese companies (Huawei, Xiamo, Gionee..) are always known to provided these kinda freebies (cases and screen guards) along with the handset. Though I secretly wish that the cover would be the one that is sold on Google store :angel:

If we actually see the offers, the first two are so typical to Huawei:

1. Case and headphone: A usual bundled accessory for honor phones. Sorry US folks!

2. Yatra vouchers: Offered on almost all the honor phones sold in India through FK.

3. CC: This I think would be Google's brainchild. Now that CC 2.0 is launched (yet to be launched in India though) at the same price of CC 1.0, its better to get rid of the inventory (they ain't OP who manufactures stuff only after looking at the market demand) than to drop the prices. This will not only help them clear the CC 1.0 inventory but also get those guys onboard who were sitting on the fence: to buy the product during the pre-lauch offer or after the initial reviews/buy them after the first wave of price drop 3-4months down the line. Glad Google helped me make that decision alot easier :laugh:

4. 10% discount: FK. Billion sale!

5. Airtel double data: I guess FK has some sorta tieup with Airtel. This is offered on majority of the phones sold on FK.

3 & 4 made me buy from FK. Though the B&M would've been my to-go choice.
[Nexus 6P General] Dipkyadav:
This wait is killing me.. :(
[Nexus 6P General] Maxxxxxxxxxx:
Airtel is offering the double data offer irrespective of where you buy it from.

6P is not listed yet, but will be soon. http://www.airtel.in/handset-offers/

So in short FK is only going to empty its Chromecast Inventory :P

There are multiple sellers, depending on your location and for you its Rashi Peripherals, that may not be the case for others as for me its WS Retail.
[Nexus 6P General] Dipkyadav:
Huawei has finally updated the status... they say 6p will be available in first week of November for Indian prebookers. . We knew it but finally they officially announced it.

[Nexus 6P General] m0h1t:
2 more weeks :mad::(:rolleyes::eek:
[Nexus 6P General] ayush84:
for the Chromecast, the seller is Rashi Peripherals. However, the handset seller is WS Retail, which is essentially Flipkart themselves (spun WSR off as a separate unit last year I think). For all warranty-related purposes on the Chromecast, Rashi Peripherals will assist buyers.
[Nexus 6P General] PratikP:
I second that. Everyone will see their seller as WS Retail but for warranty and other queries Rashi will be the one to be contacted (mentioned even on TnC of CC). They are the official importer.

Y don't u guys purchase ur model frm e-zone or reliance digital... We mumbaikars get nexus 6p frm this store only.... I didn't had a single prob with my device.... It's sounds kinda frustrating to replace ur device for so many times.... I got the 64gb variant model for the same price that on flipkart nd that too with additional accessories like logitech x50 bluetooth speaker 10000 mah power bank nd a case cover nd on top of that 5% cashback on a yes bank account.... But the main thing is no issues at all
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
are you using this ?
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
I guess the bad review was mine as it had some spot before applying but in few days it went. Sensor cut is proper so no issues. Will get intelliarmor soon as i already have a spare glass with me.

I have used google cardboard. Its awesome. I had ordered mine from amazon, cost was around 699₹. Though i didnt use it with my nexus 6p any more as i feel it might scratch it.

In the mean time

Fits perfectly
