I agree with [MENTION=3197496]Confused_Cheese[/MENTION] - It's become an expected response from Google over the years to not receive any kind of updates. It's nothing new. Google are very bad with any kind of updates, not just about the 6P delays. For example, they didn't formally announce the release of Android Pay in USA - it just happened. They're rubbish at giving info out full stop.

If you know what to expect then you can be more relaxed about it. Although I agree that customer service is rubbish, it's like the saying "you can't teach a dog new tricks" - in terms of Google, they've never been that transparent and not likely to anytime soon.

I can understand that people are upset but surely you can wait and be a little patient rather than flirting with the idea of getting a 32gb from CPW. There's a reason why you ordered the higher model in the first place so you should just stick to your guns. I can't understand the desperation unless your current phone is literally on its last legs. Got to be real about what is happening and take it as it comes. We know there's compensation in the pipeline so just wait and see.

My 128gb aluminium was supposed to be dispatched today but no movement and got "processing" on my order. Estimated delivery 3-5 November so just a matter of waiting to see if it comes this week. If not, then I know I'll get compensation.

Which actually proves people's concerns for huawei.

So i assume that this is the last google device we will be using made by huawei ?
[Nexus 6P General] Confused_Cheese:
Well, didn't Samsung make the panels... Surely they're at fault here not Huawei. Although, tighter quality control would be expected on a premium phone. I love Android, but I have to say the whole purchasing experience compared to a certain fruit based company is somewhat a shambles.

I'm actually apprehensive about receiving my 6p with some of the quality control issues I've seen reported. Its sad, when spending this much money there should be no doubts you'll get a defect free product.
[Nexus 6P General] ljcj1292:
This doesn't fill me hope, battery doesn't seem great and thats basically a new battery

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXaSskz2jSQ
[Nexus 6P General] Won't be druv:
My experience in just over a week with the 6p, is that its battery life is awesome.
[Nexus 6P General] ljcj1292:
So in general use the battery is good? Its just when it comes to watching video the battery gets consumed at a quick rate? Have you got any phone to compare it with?
[Nexus 6P General] Won't be druv:
I've come from a nexus 5 which wasn't great battery wise. Yesterday after work, I came home with 74% compared to something in the low 50's with the n5. At my workplace, the mobile signal keeps dropping so that's a real drain.
[Nexus 6P General] thunderstorm654:
Another day, still pending :@ was meant to leave warehouse by yesterday.
[Nexus 6P General] nags92:
Called them up today after receiving no email about delays and 2 chat supports later..... I was told there are stock issues and will arrive within the next week or so. Getting fed up, half tempted to cancel :mad:

*supposed to ship yesterday
[Nexus 6P General] thunderstorm654:
Why are they so vague grr you'd think they'd have a concrete answer on when stock is arriving by now.. Clearly not :(
[Nexus 6P General] usaff22:
So 2 days and now next week? :/
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
They probably don't know as Huawei are giving them vague answers "we'll get stock to you in the next week two". I've seen it happen in business with suppliers a lot. Nothing much you can do about it but wait.
[Nexus 6P General] nags92:
Yup, I could of re-ordered yesterday and probably beat my pre-order. The phone rep sounded like he hasn't a clue what's going on. First Google order, may be my last.
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
I have just decided and gone ahead and cancelled my order for the 64gb! I am really really happy with my 32gb and I made roads with my ROM last night, so going to be rocking the 32gb for the next year! couple of big bills coming up, so use any excuse to save a bit of money :D
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
I just phoned them too yesterday I was told it's shipped today there saying sorry out of stock wtf Google
[Nexus 6P General] androidkid311:
I wouldn't bother rushing it. You do that and could receive a defective unit lol. I'm just waiting and hoping mine is fine.
[Nexus 6P General] kboya:
Not sure how we can rush anything. We could wait and get a defective unit!
[Nexus 6P General] rryles:
Has anyone in the UK received a 64GB / 128GB Nexus 6P yet?
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Just spoke to a chat agent and he said the 64gb Alu won't be in stock for at least 2 weeks minimum?! :(
[Nexus 6P General] rryles:
Yet yesterday they were taking orders with "leaves warehouse by Nov 12".
[Nexus 6P General] jimbobbeers:
Hi guys,

Just wanted to add my Nexus 6P info.

Nexus 6P 64GB in Graphite

Ordered September 29th @ 18.52 (about half hour of orders going live)

Status currently 'Pending' although it was meant to be dispatched by Nov 2nd.

Date of arrival supposedly Nov 3rd -5th....

I'm not confident! :(
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Yeah, I don't think even they know what's happening.
[Nexus 6P General] DoobyDroid:
Cpw still showing expected delivery 3/11 dose that mean They have stock coming today as still not had a dispatch email and no phone today ..
[Nexus 6P General] Roberto63:
Ordered 128GB Alu 6P from GPS on 3rd Oct, for delivery between 3rd and 5th Nov, supposed to be shipped yesterday but not. Status 'processing' since late Friday. Anyone else in the same boat? I'll start to get worried after 5th Nov because my Note 3 is playing up!
[Nexus 6P General] jimbobbeers:
At least you're at 'Processing'! My 64GB Graphite is meant to be with me between the same dates (Nov 3rd -5th) and it's still sat at 'Pending'.

:confused:
[Nexus 6P General] sdunne:
But when the order went in it morphed into 16-18 Nov, I considered swapping from carbon to aluminium but when I saw how close the dates were (My Carbon is showing 18-20 Nov) I cancelled the new order.

Now showing OOS
[Nexus 6P General] rryles:
I'll take the silence as a no.
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
That's a big fat no here

---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 AM ----------

Same dates here and still pending
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
Honestly battery life is amazing,that is not normal use .I'm getting +6 hrs SOT most times with out even trying to conserve power.I dont bother toggling off WIF when out or toggling off mobile data in poor signal areas I don't even think about how the battery is doing anymore
[Nexus 6P General] thunderstorm654:
Same, still pending, meant to ship yesterday and still says 3-5th.
[Nexus 6P General] shamreez:
Has anyone got the Nexus 6P (32 Gb) as an upgrade from EE. Was supposed to get it by 2nd Nov but no update yet :(
[Nexus 6P General] nags92:
Another confirmation of stock issues via online chat

"It's going to take little bit longer to get Nexus 6P to you than we would have like.

We know that waiting a bit longer can be inconvenient, thought remember we won't charge you until your order ships.

We also want to make sure you are aware that you can cancel your order."

*EDIT* "We recently discovered some unforeseen production issues. Rest assured we’re working on getting these devices shipped as quickly as possible. You will receive an additional email communication once your device has shipped.

We apologize for this delay and thank you again for your order."

Been waiting for a premium nexus/android phone worth buying so im'a wait it out.

In the meantime....where are those marshmallow oneplus roms at :P
[Nexus 6P General] jayjay2244:
My response to google chat: Vincent S	11:47

Excellent What I will do for you as it is delayed a bit is i'll pass this to our team that are looking into it and they will email you in the next 48 hours

however it could still be shipped out to which you will receive the usual email with shipping information.
[Nexus 6P General] DerekC:
I had a funny convo with google, was told that due to unforeseen(blah blah blah) we have all heard this before. So I asked well if its a production problem then why are other countries getting their phones, I mean they are all coming from one supplier and if it was a production problem wouldn't it be in all the devices not just the ones coming to the UK that we delayed. The guy on the phone paused for a few seconds and went "yes but.. thats all we have been told" lol so I asked is it not a supply issue and he said "possibly but we (I am assuming he means the CS team) have been told its a production problem and have not been given any more info than that", " but rest assured we are doing all we can".

I kinda feel bad of them, we are all contacting them asking way after 5 weeks we now have to wait even longer and they have no info to give.
[Nexus 6P General] sufibravo:
For those with expected delivery dates of 3-5 November (most of you) I think you'll be getting the email of compensation and delay on the last estimated date of delivery ie 5th November. I got mine on the 30th which was my latest expected delivery date. Maybe they're just waiting till the last possible moment to notify individuals of the delay. Sneaky.
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
Got mine as upgrade on 28th October despite them saying it wasn't released until 4th November
[Nexus 6P General] nags92:
If they had 64gb models i was going to do the same :(
[Nexus 6P General] mo123456789:
Did you get a new delivery date in the email?
[Nexus 6P General] sufibravo:
As per the email they sent me.

Google: "As of now, we’re expecting to deliver your 6P order between 7/11/2015 and 14/11/2015, and we’ll send you a notification as soon as it goes out the door."
[Nexus 6P General] jimbobbeers:
What variant did you go for? (colour & storage)
[Nexus 6P General] fahimpanda:
sounds like my earlier suspicion might actually be true. GPS might be getting a huge batch on the 12th, hence why they are still taking orders. And then they'll ship them all at once.
[Nexus 6P General] sufibravo:
Graphite 64GB

---------- Post added at 02:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:25 PM ----------

Yeah that would explain how Google would get away with taking new orders when there's already a delay for Day 1 orders. Having faith in Google to pull off getting such a massive shipment in 1 week is hard judging by their current haphazard handling of US orders.
[Nexus 6P General] rryles:
To be fair to Google they do seem good at one thing. When they have stock they can send it out the door quickly.
[Nexus 6P General] jimbobbeers:
Ah, same as me then. Now I KNOW not to expect anything until you've at least been sent one. Disappointing. I guess I'll get that email in a couple of days.
[Nexus 6P General] sufibravo:
True, their free shipment option tends to arrive pretty quick here in the UK anyway, so their offer to expedite the shipment as apology for the delay is meh, its good they offered the 20 pounds though.

---------- Post added at 02:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 PM ----------

Yeah I feel your pain, trying to distract myself in the meanwhile. I'm sure there'll be loads of posts here once people start getting their 64 & 128 gig GPS orders.
[Nexus 6P General] thunderstorm654:
I had my query escalated as had no email about the delay yet. They just gave the same response everyone else is getting:

Unfortunately I do not have a specific update on when the stock will become available as we recently discovered some unforeseen production issues. Rest assured we're working on getting these devices shipped as quickly as possible. You will receive an additional email communication once your device has shipped.

You should receive an email letting you know when you can expect delivery, but the case has been escalated as it sounds like you have not received this. As well as giving you an expected delivery time this email will also detail a refund of £20 that you will receive when the device ships.

Please do not hesitate to contact us with any further issues or concerns.
[Nexus 6P General] Snarklife:
I got exactly the same boilerplate response from Vincent S, who is nice (and didn't deserve my grumpiness), but someone senior needs to be held accountable for the lamentable lack of communication and transparency. They need to prioritise getting MUCH more detail and information than this. As it stands, it's a slap in the face to their most loyal customers... and we wouldn't be getting this from any other brand, I'm sad to say.
[Nexus 6P General] ZippCen:
In the US those that ordered in the last week are getting theirs (64GB) while those that ordered on day 1-2 still haven't had theirs progressing to processing.

I wonder if we are having the same issue...
[Nexus 6P General] jimbobbeers:
Whilst that could be the case, I'm still yet to see anyone in the UK receive a 64GB Nexus 6P.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
I don't think anyone in the UK is getting theirs, I don't think Google UK has even received any. As someone earlier said I think they're getting a giant batch in (sometime) so those that ordered last week will get them at the same time as those that pre ordered ages ago.
[Nexus 6P General] thunderstorm654:
Yep, pretty sure they just don't exist in the UK yet..! :mad:
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
CPW and some EE stores have them
[Nexus 6P General] ZippCen:
I hope that's the case. As long as its not on some ship thats sinking. :P
[Nexus 6P General] rryles:
Only 32GB though.
[Nexus 6P General] :
We are impressed with 6P, best Nexus so far for sure.
[Nexus 6P General] wazka2:
Just been to CPW to order a replacement and they have none left he said. None available to order :( I need to call cust serv to double check!
[Nexus 6P General] Guitarfreak26:
I bought one from o2 whilst waiting for my 128gb lol! Will give this one to my mother after. Amazing phone
[Nexus 6P General] uktechguru:
Same situation here. Went into processing on Sunday but that's about it. No news on dispatch or anything. Supposed to leave warehouse 2 November for delivery between 3-5 November.

Like I said before I'm not in any rush so I'm not too fussed about any delays. The important bit is that ordering from Google ensures great warranty compared to others, despite what others may think about their experience of ordering from Google.

[Nexus 6P General] arronmini:
I just hope that giant batch includes Frost for the UK and they are not part of the "bad batch". Seen this on US thread and scares me a bit:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63628847&postcount=10313

I have 64gb frost ordered on 29/9.

Leave warehouse 1/11 delivery 3/11-5/11.

Still pending.
[Nexus 6P General] Roberto63:
Thanks for the info. [emoji3]

I'm not in any particular hurry either, it's just my Note 3 has been playing up and I'm worried it's about to conk! [emoji16]

Hopefully we'll get our dispatch notifications soon...
[Nexus 6P General] uktechguru:
Yeah my Note 4 is having some issues and had to do fresh install a few times. Still got warranty on Note 4 till March so when I get my 6P I'll have a better look at what's causing the problem.

Come Thursday we'll get the delay email with probability of dispatch around 12/11

[Nexus 6P General] chinedu40:
Called google support, phones have been "dispatched to the shippers" for "delivery around the country". Sounds like horses*** to me cause in the same breath he mentioned being sorry for the delay?
[Nexus 6P General] Roberto63:
Your dispatch theory sounds likely, but strange our statuses have changed to 'processing' while others are still 'pending'. There is also a pending transaction on my credit card. Go figure... [emoji16]
[Nexus 6P General] uktechguru:
Yeah I've got a pre auth on my bank card but Google said it was because the original pre auth expired. They expire after 30 days so they have to redo the pre auth so that they can charge without problems when ready to dispatch.

Sent with my Surface Pro 3 using Tapatalk
[Nexus 6P General] Roberto63:
Hmm yes, but surely the status would only change to 'processing' if there is stock to fulfil our orders. Oh well, I'm sure all will be revealed in due course... [emoji102]
[Nexus 6P General] marcadam:
I've got a G4 and I can assure you, there's no way on God's green earth the G4's battery life is better than the 6P.
[Nexus 6P General] uktechguru:
Yes, I agree it is very odd but two more days to see if it's dispatched - if not then I guess the 12th will be the date to look towards. I ordered on 29/09 at 18:47 btw.

[Nexus 6P General] kboya:
Still nothing on mine (64g graph; Crhomecast; Nexus case quartz) ordered 29-Sep-2015 18:39:50 BST. My card has nothing on it (although it always takes a while to show) and still Pending.

What's frustrating is that my chat with the lovely Alanna (Monday morning, posted above) suggested that Chromecasts were in short supply and late arriving (although she mistook my original question), whereas I can get one right now in, of all places, Currys!

I'm beginning to think this whole preorder thing is a bigger set of BS than the N5 release, in part because mine was relatively painless for multiple handsets. I'm also not sure that a potential £20 discount is enough (4% on £499), especially as we seem unlikely to receive a £30 Play store credit in line with our North American cousins' 50USD.

El goog, it's time to impress us!
[Nexus 6P General] Kid_droid:
Tbh. I'm so busy this week so maybe if I receive it next week it might be okay lol. Plus black friday is looming. Usually I get a new nexus and cracking black friday simonly upgrade deal or change provider if I have too.

Target 15gb+ data for about £20 if I can make it happen. I know 3 is unlimited but not the best in my area for coverage.

---------- Post added at 06:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:20 PM ----------

Tomorrow is the last day of my delivery / shipping guarantee.
[Nexus 6P General] Roberto63:
I wasn't brave enough to press the button on 29/09, it took me until 10:57 on 3/10 after a few more glitches with my Note 3. Hopefully we'll get the £20 refund if our orders are delayed. Should buy a few beers! ?
[Nexus 6P General] uktechguru:
I agree that we should get the Google Play credit too. I'm going to try push for it when I contact Google end of the week. Even though the US have different tax charges we're still paying above the US and don't get the Play Store credit. I hate that America gets all these extra bonuses and we don't. It's across the board here in UK - we don't get much incentive from manufacturers. I know O2 are giving £50 play store credit but it turns out it's more or less a refund because the overall cost over 24months is higher than buying outright. I too am waiting for the new Chromecast and Chromecast audio along with Quartz case.

I bought my new Chromecast in Tesco at the weekend. Hope you manage to get the Google Play credit. [emoji106]

32gb graphite in stock at giffgaff if anyone interested
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Are the phones locked to Giff Gaff? Oh no, now I'm tempted but I'd really like higher than 32,its just not enough :(
[Nexus 6P General] Barso1:
My preorder just got moved from 12th November to 18th November.
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Sim free mate got my n6 through them last year

Order before 10pm for next day delivery
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Arghhh so tempting, I don't know what to do!
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Storage wise for me is fine as i have Kingston data traveller (64gb) for storing my twrp backups as well as titanium backup

And movies

All pictures stored on Google photos

Still have 20gb spare after all my apps
[Nexus 6P General] Confused_Cheese:
Wait. You'll regret it if you don't if you need/want the extra space. Trust me, even if you have to wait 2 weeks extra you'll forget all about the wait once you have the device. After all... a week or two isn't exactly a long amount of time.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Just bought it. Can't believe I'm downgrading storage wise, I had a 128gb card in my Note 4! Giffgaff only sell them when they're in stock don't they? I bet I get an email saying it's on pre order lol.

---------- Post added at 09:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 PM ----------

Too late, although I could return it after 2 weeks.
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Yeah mate if it shows up as in stock they've got it in i did the same last year

Downgraded to 32gb and got a meenova to increase storage

This year I wanted 128gb then 64gb before settling for the 32gb again

This Time with Kingston data traveller
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Yeah, I've got a meenova type of device for my S6. I'm currently using 31gb of 64gb on that and it's mostly just music I don't listen to and a few crap videos. Just really annoying to have such limited storage and not get the device you want.
[Nexus 6P General] usaff22:
Tempted to get the giffgaff 32GB one and return it once my GPS 64GB order ships. I ordered the 32GB Aluminium from Google last weekend hoping I'd get to use it until my 64GB order arrived, but there's been no movement with it. At this rate it'll arrive at the same time as the 64GB one if not later. I'm just about to cancel my 32GB order now.
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Last phone i had was the Zenfone 2 with 64gb internal with a 128gb memory card

A good phone but missed my Nexus :D
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
The S6 I have is a really great phone with a great camera and good performance,it's just totally boring. It's locked down, not much development for it and theres virtually nothing to tweak. One of the best phones I've had was the Nexus 5, had loads of fun tinkering with it. Hopefully the 6P will be the same!
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
6p is awesome mate best Nexus ever I've had mine for a week now

No problems at all so far
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
does twrp see the 64gb thingy
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Just out of interest, what was the basic storage left out of the box, I think I read it was 25gb?
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Yeah mate picks up as otg - usb

I've unlocked bootloader twrp recovery decrypted rooted

All in the first hour

I think I was just a little impatient :D
[Nexus 6P General] kboya:
Yep 25(.01!)
[Nexus 6P General] Nekromantik:
I'm just very annoyed Google won't give other stockist 64gb model. It's not very clever thing to do!
[Nexus 6P General] Confused_Cheese:
By the looks of it they don't have the stock to do so
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Yep it's madness
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
The whole things a mess. They really need to sort their sh** out.

Just had an email saying my 32 has shipped through Giff Gaff so I'll have it tomorrow. Then I can decide in 14 days if I'll order a higher storage one on the Play Store.
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Same thing every year mate they never learn their lesson from previous years
[Nexus 6P General] ljcj1292:
The thought is crossing my mind about cancelling my 64gb Nexus order and just buying a Note 4, I currently have a Note 2 running CM12. Please talk me out of it and say I should stick with the 6P?
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
I'd stay with the 6p really

I would have have gone for note 5 for sure if it had open CPU sdk so we get custom asop rom.
