Picked up my 128GB Frost up this morning!
[Nexus 6P General] nephridian:
Finally tracked mine down at work this afternoon. It's gorgeous! In love already! :D
[Nexus 6P General] Trekkk:
Got my Nexus 6p today solid device overall till now, happy to be back to stock
[Nexus 6P General] tietherope:
My 64GB Frost ordered 9/30 has switched to processing. I can not believe it!
[Nexus 6P General] diehardfan:
has 128GB Aluminum ever been in stock?
[Nexus 6P General] tietherope:
64GB Frost is back in stock for new orders.

Should I order a new one and see if it beats my order from 9/30?

The case on my order is still out of stock, but yesterday they told me they held one back for my order and my order is processing, so maybe they were right.
[Nexus 6P General] BlackVariant:
64GB Frost is now processing and my card has been charged (discount hasn't been given yet though).
[Nexus 6P General] force70:
Its like a pearl satin finish, pretty grippy actually yeah.

Sent from my Note 5, Nexus 6P, Note 4 or Nexus 6
[Nexus 6P General] mr mystery:
Got my 64GB Graphite today. Ordered Thursday at 10AM. Google shipping is great in the GTA.
[Nexus 6P General] h_zee13:
For those who just received their device, you should flash the latest OTA from the developer website before setting up your devuce. Mine had the issue where the left and right speakers didn't switch sides when rotating the phone. The OTA fixes that.
[Nexus 6P General] gd6noob:
Google USA shipped my phone same day.. FedEx overnight priority shipping.. shipped it to Point Roberts just across the boarder... picked it up.. no tax coming back... saved myself a pretty penny..
[Nexus 6P General] Astronomyisfun:
I order mine through Rogers instead of buying outright from Google.

$199.99, had to change to a share everything though. $80/month unlimited Canada wide talk and text, VM, caller ID and tablet sharing the data.

Even got a new tablet at the same time, Xperia Z3 Compact Tablet. $240.

Reasonable result I guess. Oh yes, Shomi or Spotify free for 24 months and NHL game center live for nothing too.

As happy as I can be with a Canadian plan. I can hardly wait to move back to Europe. Come on retirement.
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Dam that's a lot, at least you got some of a discount on the tab
[Nexus 6P General] Astronomyisfun:
Yes it is pricey, only 3GB of data too. Couldn't see paying another $10 for 5GB. I'll control myself. LOL.
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
I'm paying s**t ton for 5gb data...dam expensive data plans
[Nexus 6P General] GetPatriotized:
I used to pay $90 for 6GB with Rogers. Switched to winds lowest data plan. It was garbage, only good for texting.

Currently on Talk and Save, aka cityfone, which runs Rogers network. Paying $45 for 2Gb and it's great.

You can switch to Mobilicity, which recently stitched to Rogers network as well.
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
I used to be with wind, not that bad if you can tolerate the low 3g speed. But, lack of phone choices drove me to koodo. Now, I have freedom of picking international phones. Plus LTe is super sweet and having 5gb data is awesome. It's a pain to pay that much better gotta pay for service I guess lol

Edit: I bet Rogers going screw all those mobillicity customer some how... They will find a way lol
[Nexus 6P General] GetPatriotized:
How much are you paying at koodo?

I was thinking of going with mobilicity but sure.
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Around 100 got us long distance, I'm going move to an Quebec plan...there its way cheap
[Nexus 6P General] GetPatriotized:
I see. Yeah I've seen a bunch of cheap Quebec plans over on redflagdeals.
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Yeah there's 59 dollar with 6gb data now that's cheap compared to Ontario plans..
[Nexus 6P General] gd6noob:
Im on Fido $55/mon - BYOP $49/mon

unlimited talk/text Canada wide,

unlimited global text

5gb data

vm, etc
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
You are from Manitoba or something lol
[Nexus 6P General] gd6noob:
Vancouver :D

But yea, I have the SK plan... should have gona with the MB plan, which is the same thing but they dont charge the 911 fee.. lol
[Nexus 6P General] tietherope:
This has been the absolute worst purchasing experience I have had in many years. Almost to the point of saying "**** it" to this phone.
[Nexus 6P General] GetPatriotized:
Why is that? Taking too long?
[Nexus 6P General] tietherope:
Ordered 64GB Frost on 9/30

Leaves warehouse date of Nov 2.

Nov 4 they assure me everything is fine with my order.

Delivery date is Nov 4-11

Contact them Nov 10 to say I'm still pending and it won't meet the delivery date. Say there is a delay that impacts some but if I didn't get an email them I'm OK. Although meeting the date is impossible.

Get a delay email at almost midnight on Nov 11 with a new date of Nov 16 to Nov 20 and an offer for a $30 credit.

Friday Nov 13 the Frost phones come back in stock and my order moves to processing.

I speak to a rep from Google about how my order has a case on it and the cases have been in stock the last month+ but just went out of stock 2-3 days before.

He assures me that a case for my order was set aside before they went out of stock and my order would ship any time now. I assume this means Monday.

I find out people who ordered the same model/colour had theirs shipped Friday for delivery tomorrow.

I contact Google now and I'm told my order is held back because the case is out of stock and they do not know when more are coming, they were supposed to get them yesterday.

Had they told me this Friday, I would have ordered just the phone and I'd have it in hand tomorrow.

They put my order to "processing" even though stock isn't there, so now the order can't even be cancelled.

So now I can re-order just the phone alone, lose the $30 and get nothing for waiting all this time/being lied to, and refuse delivery of the month and a half old order. Or I can wait who knows how long (Google doesn't) for the original order. Or find another phone because I've lost all excitement for this one.
[Nexus 6P General] diehardfan:
Has 128gb aluminum ever been in stock?

And any word on when it might be in stock?
[Nexus 6P General] aalupatti:
I cancelled 128gb aluminum after 34days of waiting and ordered a 128gb frost. Got it in 2 days.. I am so happy with my decision.

1 - This is a great phone and no point in wasting time for color

2- I never liked white phones but this is so beautiful.. The back is so sexy with the frost color. I do not think graphite or aluminum would do full justice.
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
I just reordered a frost 64gb with nexus protection, and it went from pending to processing in less than 2hrs...
[Nexus 6P General] tietherope:
So I went with the re-order option last night and gave up my $30 credit. It's already shipped. My original order from Sept. 30? It's still processing.
[Nexus 6P General] Moondawgy:
I had both the aluminum and frost. They are both beautiful in their own way but the difference is minimal. I kept the frost for other reasons but I would have preferred the aluminum.
[Nexus 6P General] Boswell20:
I ordered another 128gb graphite with Nexus protect and returning my current one. I really hope it's as flawless and problem free as this device.

Btw, ordered it today and its already shipped. Should be here tomorrow
[Nexus 6P General] diehardfan:
Not even the reps know when the 128GB Aluminium will be in stock, boo...
[Nexus 6P General] aalupatti:
What carrier do they use to ship ?
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Last time with nexus 5, it was ups. Think its them again
[Nexus 6P General] aeris_2pac:
I'm not the biggest fan of UPS. If you aren't home when they ship your package, they take it back to their main warehouse(not to be picked up and far from home). Why can't they just drop it off to a local post office just like the others do :(
[Nexus 6P General] 420SYN:
You can pre print a waiver form asking them to leave it on your doorstep. Not useful in an apartment building but it works for me where I live
[Nexus 6P General] blassster:
They left my Nexus 4 on my doorstep for hours in frigid temperatures. Was definitely worried for it. It also took forever to get here, arriving in my province and then leaving for another province a day after for no reason - delayed for weeks. Hated them since.
[Nexus 6P General] WoodroweBones:
I'm not a big UPS fan either for that and other reasons (they seem to be the most likely to randomly charge "brokerage" fees on items from US). However I find all the carriers here are more content to just assume nobody is home than to attempt delivery. I've caught several carriers trying to just tack the note on my door saying they attempted delivery while I was at home waiting (I work from home a lot)
[Nexus 6P General] chef_christoph:
Has anyone here tried using UPS My Choice to change a delivery location?

I enrolled in it shortly before my N6 was to be delivered but didn't receive the confirmation code that arrives in the mail in time to make use of it before my phone was delivered.

I was hoping to make use of it this time and have my N6P dropped off at a UPS store location near my home address.

Having never done it before, I wanted to see if anyone here had tried that before and what the experience was like.

[MENTION=5626105]aeris_2pac[/MENTION] ....UPS My Choice might also offer a solution to your problem as well.

I'm hopeful that others here from Canada might share their experiences with using that service.
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Last year, I tried using UPS my choice and it didn't let me hold my package at a ups place...it said only available in USA
[Nexus 6P General] chef_christoph:
Well that's disappointing. Thanks for letting me know.
[Nexus 6P General] xReaper7x:
UPS My Choice FTW (Y) Helped me with my nexus 6 to send the tracking earlier then google.
[Nexus 6P General] Mac_33:
This one is nice but it releases on the 30th. This is the only other one I can find but I have to find other stuff to get the order amount over $25 to get free shipping. http://www.amazon.ca/Nexus-Case-Polycarbonate-Protector-Smartphone/dp/B00JP6FPZA/

Anyone know of any other cases that ship to Canada?
[Nexus 6P General] chef_christoph:
Cool, thanks for letting me know. Just for clarification, did you use it to redirect your shipment to a different pickup location, or only use it for tracking?
[Nexus 6P General] xReaper7x:
Just tracking :)
[Nexus 6P General] chef_christoph:
Thanks appreciate the info.
[Nexus 6P General] aeris_2pac:
I registered with UPS My Choice and they seem to let you track your shipment as well as choosing a UPS Access Point to drop off a delivery.

The only thing that could prevent us to pick an access point is if Google(sender) specifically asked to NOT change the address of delivery.
[Nexus 6P General] gbual:
Bell Canada says Nexus 6P will be available October 26 to purchase in Canada.

http://mobilesyrup.com/2015/10/13/bell-says-the-nexus-6p-will-be-available-october-26th/
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Shame its only 32gb, would been fine if they offered 64gb at least
[Nexus 6P General] gbual:
Ya the carriers in Canada are only going to offer the 32gb model. I had to preorder with google because 32gb is not enough space for me. Would have been easier to upgrade through a carrier if they offered the 64gb model
[Nexus 6P General] aeris_2pac:
I better receive my 6P before the 26th then!
[Nexus 6P General] GetPatriotized:
Those are the only ones I can see.

Had the MoKo case for a few days. Here's some pics.

I just got back from Las Vegas and was using the roam mobility sim card in my Nexus 6P. Full reception and worked great, no issues at all. Switched sims at the bored and flew from Bellingham to Las Vegas
[Nexus 6P General] Civuck:
Fantastic - thanks for the follow-up. Hopefully the Nexus 6P Dual-SIM group makes things happen.
[Nexus 6P General] tietherope:
Shipped 8.5 hours ago and tracking shows nothing on the Canada Post website. Pretty sure my last 3 shipments showed something by now. Or am I wrong? And yes I'm impatient.
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
From my last order it didn't update until next day and its same case again
[Nexus 6P General] tietherope:
Thanks. I'll see what the morning brings.
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
So has Google sorted out all this shipping nonsense for Canada yet? If I were to order today, approximately how long would I need to wait to receive it?

Thanks
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
I ordered yesterday and received mine today, so its fast
[Nexus 6P General] hudsoncouto:
Which variant?
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
frost 64gb
[Nexus 6P General] davedc:
I did the same for a 64gb Aluminum. Processed and took my money right away, but no shipping notice yet. You?

Nevermind... looks like you got it already! Hmm... Hope I didn't screw myself just to get the Nexus Protect!
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
I already received it today
[Nexus 6P General] davedc:
Yeah, sorry, I noticed that too late.

That's really fast! Did you get a "shipped" notice first or did it just show up?

(That happened to me one with my Nexus 5 a couple of years ago)
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
I got shipping notification yesterday...The delivery date was between Nov19-23, so i wasn't expecting to receive it today. Maybe, they got a lot of white 6p laying around
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
aha yea! I am hopefully going to order an graphite or aluminum soon! But that CDN dollar though lol
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Still much cheaper than iware and samsunk

[Nexus 6P General] tietherope:
Finally got my device from Sept. 30. It's beautiful.

Looks like the Google cases have a crazy lip on them and my tempered glass protectors won't work. Have to go with old school screen protector until I get a different case.
[Nexus 6P General] diehardfan:
anyone have any clue when 128GB Aluminium might be in stock?
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
not sure tbh. It seems like Google is making alot less 128 GB models in Aluminum. Its kinda like the white 64GB Nexus 6 last year, it could be the unicorn lol
[Nexus 6P General] highvista:
I'm not sure if it's available in Canada, but it just showed up again for the US. I was on the list to get an email and just placed an order.
[Nexus 6P General] L3af:
I finally got my 64GB Frost too! The 560 dpi is huge! Changed to 480 but I might try other values.
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
Wow did you pay for express shipping or anything?
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Not even option for that, free shipping is only being offered

Sent from my frosty Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
Wow. I am thinking of ordering one today, hoping I will receive it by Friday. Apparently they leave from a warehouse in Mississauga. Did the shipping notice tell you where it came from?
[Nexus 6P General] htc fan89:
Yeah from Mississauga

Sent from my frosty Nexus 6P
[Nexus 6P General] LinS123:
So I ordered mine in the middle of the night on the 16th; like 2am. Got my 64GB frost today.

1 day processing and 1 day shipping. Pretty fast.
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
Anyone Canadians notice there 6P is bent or warped? I just ordered one today, and already an active thread on XDA reporting the phone not sitting flat when on a table, and warping or bending. For a 700 dollar phone, you'd expect more. I just want to know if any of you notice this
[Nexus 6P General] LinS123:
My advice to you. Don't read too much into those threads. Reading them almost made me cancel my order but after using the phone for a day I'm confident in the build quality.

Only time will tell if the bending is a wide scale issue. As of right now it's literally a drop in the ocean.

On that note. My phone came in fine, no wobble or bends.
[Nexus 6P General] davedc:
Have any of you returned your 6p and re-ordered to take advantage of Nexus Protect?

I just got my second 6p ("Protected") and sent back my first.

Seems a real shame to send back a pristine phone, but the Google support guy told me that was the only way to do it. They won't add it on after the purchase.
[Nexus 6P General] Tennoh:
That's what I did. Received my 6P on that Monday, then next day Tues they made available Nexus Protect to Canadians. Talked and waited in vain with Google support until Friday that same week and submitted a request to return and then proceeded to order a new 6P. Received new device following Monday and sent back original same day. Waste of time for me and waste of a totally fine 6P for Google...
[Nexus 6P General] Astronomyisfun:
No kidding. I don't know why I was getting myself all wound up reading the doom and gloom threads. I am on day 3 with a 32GB Graphite and it is the best phone I have ever had. So glad I stuck with it.
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
Yea, I just hope the new model I ordered will not have issues. I did not purchases Nexus Protect as well? Would you happen to know if the 1 year standard warranty allows you to RMA after the 14 day window in the case something happens?
[Nexus 6P General] Astronomyisfun:
No I don't know. Hopefully somebody else can chime in.
[Nexus 6P General] Understated:
just ordered 128gb graphite last night.

i actually returned my z5 for this. Z5 has really ****ty low light photos and is actually pretty ****ty at focusing. and i'm not willing to wait for Sony to upgrade their photo processing algorithms.

6P knocks low light out of the park. also love the burst mode so i can take pics of my toddler.

can't wait for this baby to arrive!
[Nexus 6P General] LinS123:
Google play customer service is generally very good. If for any reason your phone has any defects after the 14 day period they'll offer a replacement.

Generally though the 14 day period is the only time you can get a refund.
[Nexus 6P General] diehardfan:
FYI, all 128GB and 64GB colours are now in stock!!!

Just got 128GB Aluminium, cannot wait!!
[Nexus 6P General] trlash:
Very pleased so far. Had it for a week now. Purchased through bell wish they had other variants other then 32 and graphite but I didn't want to wait. Shame I have to wait almost a month to get NY spigen case guess they don't believe in fast shipping.

I read into bend this bend that honestly if you csfe for you device you'll be fine. In sure ever device bends. I get around 4 hours of battery life if I wasn't on WiFi I'm sire it would be higher. Regular work day would be easy to get through.

Camera is nice any photos I've taken even in low light have cone out great. Can't go wrong with this device
[Nexus 6P General] Opacac:
Got my 64GB several days ago. Graphite version. No problems at all. Just the screen is somewhat pink at very low brightness. Don't know if it's just an AMOLED screen problem, turning it to about 30% brightness on adaptive fixes it.
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
Hows everyone liking their 6P?
[Nexus 6P General] Astronomyisfun:
Loving it so far
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
I was just wondering if this was normal. I opened my 6P out of the box today. Noticed that the screen was not flush with the aluminum. I attached a picture below. Is this early signs of the bending issue, and should I consider an RMA?
[Nexus 6P General] Clem604:
Fantastic device, exceeded my expectations in almost all aspects, the biggest one being the camera. I thought I would miss the camera on my old Galaxy S6 but i don't.
[Nexus 6P General] Splifff:
Loving it too <3 One of my favorite things about the 6P is how extremely dim the brightness can get. Doesn't hurt your eyes when reading something in bed with the lights off.

A lot of people complaining about how its not bright enough :/ not sure what they mean as the 6p can get even brighter than the galaxy s4.
[Nexus 6P General] Civuck:
Absolutely love my 6P. No problems whatsoever after two weeks of ownership.
[Nexus 6P General] Understated:
Returned my Z5 and got a 6P. NO REGRETS.

6P really hit it out of the park. The camera, especially in low light, is seriously amazing. I was afraid of the size being too big but I love it. So much easier to edit photos etc on it. I also love the pure android and knowing that this phone will always be supported.

Love this phone!
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
Anyone know the process for RMAing a 6P in Canada? I planning to done one since my screen is literally separating from the aluminum.

thanks
[Nexus 6P General] mr mystery:
Just Google "RMA Google Store"
[Nexus 6P General] driftingmellow:
Mine is okay.
[Nexus 6P General] ddc2766:
Click on RETURN ORDER in your Order History. From there, you can start the process or talk to someone at Google.
[Nexus 6P General] reno97637:
I was debating between the Moto X Style vs. the Nexus 6P but because it's still taking forever for Moto to come out with Android 6 for it's devices, it's a no brainer.

I just got the 32gb graphite and I am impressed overall. This phone replaces the Nexus 5 that I use daily and it's nice to have a better screen, a better camera, and the best part is I don't have to charge this phone until the day is actually over. I also use an iPhone for business but that's a whole new topic.

My question is, what camera apps are you people using to capture DNG files? I have Camera FV-5 but it seems to be a bit iffy.
[Nexus 6P General] iZack187:
I don't know if it was mentioned earlier, but there's an amazing black Friday deal going on at Best Buy:

[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
has anyone sent returned their 6P before? And how long did it take to get your refund? I sent in my defective 6P through UPS and it was delivered on Wednesday. Google still did not let me know if they got the item so I am wondering if they even got it?

I stand corrected :D

[Nexus 6P General] Cuzz1369:
I disagree, in this day and age local storage is becoming redundant. With automatic photo backup, music streaming services and bigger cheaper data plans I have no problem working with a 32gb device. With Spotify premium free for 2 years with my 9gb plan, storage is a non issue.
[Nexus 6P General] jaleelhamid:
I got mine with wind mobile and its not bad on getting me good signal I got the 32gb one
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
Nice to see you on the 6P! Candy Five was great on D852!

---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 AM ----------

can you make a profit on the 32GB model on Kijii? Who would buy it from you if they can get it from Google at at lower price for more security? Just wondering haha
[Nexus 6P General] Cuzz1369:
When you pay $0 out of pocket its all profit. Put that money towards a 128gb model is the logic I think he is using.
[Nexus 6P General] iZack187:
Exactly :)

I got the phone for 0.00$, with a 50$ Rogers credit (cuz their system were down), with a 100$ Best Buy gift certificate. Excluding the 2yrs contract I signed, it's pretty much 100% profit.

Google is currently selling the 32gb version for 700$ +tx +shipping. I could sell mine for a flat 650$ on kijiji. Then I could sell my current Nexus 6-64gb for a good ~450$. That's ~1100$ right there. I would buy the Nexus 6P 128gb in the color of my choice straight from Google at 850$ +tx +shipping, and use the rest of the money (if any) to put back on the Rogers tab :highfive:

Best part is, I called Google and got my Nexus 6 replace, they are shipping me a new one, so technically I would be selling two phones in their unopened box :D
[Nexus 6P General] oxxshadow:
oh ok sweet! i didn't see your previous post, I thought you were paying outright price for the 6P
