Ive got my 64gb order open at unlocked mobiles, and I've just received the one from mobiles direct (32gb contract phone).

I'll have a play about on the 32gb phone for a few days then send it back and cancel the contract and await the 64gb model which should be 1-2 maybe 3 weeks away. Best of both worlds. I get to satisfy my curiosity and then satisfy my requirements in the long run.
[Nexus 6P General] @home:
Reading through this thread it's like a repeat of every major phone release delays, confusion & disappointment.

It used to be P4U that where the culprits but now it's CPW.

Maybe it pays to hang fire & let it come on mainstream, instead of being caught up in all the confusion & disappointment.
[Nexus 6P General] adamsweeting:
Same experience here, apart from the fact I had to convince one of the members of staff that today was release day. He thought release day was the end of Nov!

I explained to him that was for the Graphite....

After a tense 5 mins I got it in my hands
[Nexus 6P General] wazka2:
It is a contract order but an online not in store one.
[Nexus 6P General] italia0101:
Lol oh man, i can imagine those 5 mins now , the guys i was dealing with looked quite excited about it, they mentioned it was the first one they'd sold and gave me a " cool guy " look . think they wanted me to open it there, but nah, lol
[Nexus 6P General] jodvova:
Finally!
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
Guys what is the usable free space like on the 32gb model?
[Nexus 6P General] happyslayeruk:
I had a good experience with CPW this time. Upgraded my 02 contract online on Thursday 22nd (luckily my upgrade day), got my dispatch email on Friday and my shiny new 6P arrived today with a free Chromecast Audio.
[Nexus 6P General] happyslayeruk:
25GB
[Nexus 6P General] viren_s:
Show them the email confirmation and/or threaten to cancel your order?
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
You would not believe this ...actually you probably would.Having got off the Phi e with EE and being told it's not launch until.4th November and I would not get it tomorrow as told ...guess what happen......Just got a a text off DPD ,my parcel will be delivered tomorrow...honestly how can these companies keep their CS staff so illinformed ,I hope hope that haven't sent a 5x
[Nexus 6P General] JustinTrouble:
Thanks. Did it trip your Qfuse?
[Nexus 6P General] jodvova:
Got 25gb free with aboot 100 apps installed.
[Nexus 6P General] marcadam:
My experience and perception of CPW is pretty much like the Phoneshop, in fact it was probably written by an ex employee : https://youtu.be/mtIcYALz1aQ
[Nexus 6P General] pro4ever:
plus ive ordered http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/..._rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=577047927&pf_rd_i=desktop
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
That is actually much better than I was expecting. I was thinking more along the lines of 22gb That does change things a bit. I may consider popping into my local store and seeing if they have any.
[Nexus 6P General] Tung_meister:
It still says "Qfuse status: ENABLED" so I can't see any difference.
[Nexus 6P General] happyslayeruk:
Was just thinking about ordering a small USB type C stick like my teeny tiny Sandisk one (USB A), think I'll get that one.
[Nexus 6P General] italia0101:
Yeah afaik on this its actually " secure boot" renamed . Google confirmed in doesn't trip when unlocking.
[Nexus 6P General] curtisf08:
I ordered mine on Thursday evening from mobiles.co.uk and it just arrived. I Had to deal with lots of messing around to access my account though. Coming from an N5 cm12, the phone feels massive and I've not used stock android since N4 release. I'm reluctant to unlock the phone just yet until I know for certain how it will affect imprint features + android pay once its eventually released. Need a case asap, going to buy a 6plus pouch in the meantime
[Nexus 6P General] viren_s:
Don't see android pay making it to the UK. Besides even if it does if you get rewards on your cards you wont if you use them through android pay or apple pay. Also check out Cataclysm rom on the nexus 5.
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
It really is pretty small mate

Same size as the meenova that was on sale last year
[Nexus 6P General] xdaman85:
Screenshot or didn't happen :p

If it did, I'm hoping I get a text from DPD too. I called EE at lunch and they said they don't have stock.
[Nexus 6P General] usaff22:
Sooo anyone know when these Google Store orders will ship? Now the only reason I'm waiting is for the superior support and 64GB storage. If this goes on for any longer I'll cancel and get it from CPW instead. Canadians have just been charged apparently.
[Nexus 6P General] justbabu:
That phrase made my day!

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
Edit think it's messing around
[Nexus 6P General] JustinTrouble:
Thanks for the feedback. So much for all the scaremongering!

Well I'm going in...

I've just unlocked the bootloader and can confirm that "QFuse Status: Enabled".
[Nexus 6P General] adamsweeting:
Kinda..... More like what Phones4U were like IMO ;)
[Nexus 6P General] blue scrubs:
Has anyone ordered from google and gone to "processing" yet in the UK?

I ordered on 9/10 and still pending with an estimated date of 5th to 9th November:crying:

I can't see a "leaves warehouse" date either.

I just want my new damn phone :crying:
[Nexus 6P General] pro4ever:
Just received a text
[Nexus 6P General] iateyourmic:
Not yet. I ordered before the link was even visible on the Store and my order is yet to move from Pending. https://play.google.com/store/account also just shows "Pre-ordered".
[Nexus 6P General] blue scrubs:
I wouldn't order from CPW if my bloody life depended on it......Their customer service is absolutely s***e!
[Nexus 6P General] Pacman1969:
I spoke to live Chat support at google store today. I ordered on Oct 3 the 128gb graphite model. By order says leave warehouse by Nov 1st. The person I spoke said that my phone is due to ship out Nov 2nd (makes sense as Nov 1st is a Sunday). He also said they are doing everything they can to ship sooner.

From this I am thinking there will be movement later this week and we should see things start to move
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Nope still at pending here mate

Very frustrating took over 3 weeks to get a god damn case dispatched lol
[Nexus 6P General] blue scrubs:
didn't bother with the google cases....ordered a nice spiegen one so it didn't (potentially) interfere with my 6p order ;)
[Nexus 6P General] riz157:
Just received this text after calling several times for update:

Hi R, thank you for ordering your Nexus 6P from Carphone Warehouse. Unfortunately there will be a delay with your delivery. Your order will now be with you on Wednesday 28th October and DPD will be in touch to confirm your delivery slot. To thank you for your patience we have credited your in-store account with £5 which you can spend at any time.

Not sure if I will cancel as my order from Google will be shipped around that time, probably!
[Nexus 6P General] Daveoc64:
This is definitely not true for Apple Pay. Google Wallet's NFC feature worked by giving you a Google-provided MasterCard prepaid card. Every time you used wallet to make a transaction, Google would take the money from your actual credit card to automatically fund the prepaid card.

As the transaction on your credit card was with Google Wallet, your bank would not be able to give you any rewards based on where you really bought it (e.g. a supermarket).

Apple Pay uses a tokenised card number that's linked to the account you have with the bank. This allows the bank to properly identify where you made the transaction and to give you the correct rewards. NatWest advertises this in the UK on its reward cards.

The new Android Pay should work the same way, but the legacy Google Wallet method will still work for existing users in the US.
[Nexus 6P General] belloni:
aha you couldn't write this. Just got the same text Riz157, safe to say what a shambles of a company and they will be getting a few complaints. Will be cancelling my order.
[Nexus 6P General] viren_s:
I guess it depends on the bank then. A friend of mine didn't get the rewards. Don't know what bank it was.
[Nexus 6P General] blue scrubs:
I thought CPW had already started some shipping of the 32gb version no?
[Nexus 6P General] The Gingerbread Man:
Mine arrived earlier guys. It's great!
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Yeah I ordered a spiegen case from Amazon but that's not due till around the 10th November

Don't know why google can't get their stuff out before everyone else does
[Nexus 6P General] Sennfire:
Google support are comically unhelpful with matters of shipping. They clearly haven't been handed any information on this. Some notable excerpts from the chat would be "probably" and "should be".
[Nexus 6P General] Fredro:
Where did you get the info about 1-3 weeks for the 64gb? I was told 29th Oct.
[Nexus 6P General] belloni:
No idea, but just sent them a lengthy complaint.
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Half of them should be comedians

When I phoned to ask why the likes of cpw and mobiles.co.uk were getting theirs before people who ordered through Google

It's a popular device was his reply after 10 minutes he still couldn't give a creditable answer
[Nexus 6P General] losimagic:
I too have just received the CPW text. If it's accurate and I receive it on Wednesday, that's not too bad, especially based on chats i've had with staff today who've had no idea when stock will actually arrive.

Also, £5, woooooo, i'll buy a quarter of a usb c cable!
[Nexus 6P General] DJaPeR:
Just got this text too. I have a feeling this £5 isn't going to be spent.....
[Nexus 6P General] Sennfire:
Seems like the second wave of charges are going through in the US, with no movement on any UK orders. Shafted again.
[Nexus 6P General] losimagic:
I have a feeling if I go into a store saying I'd like to spend the £5 on my account, they'll say "what £5, what account?"
[Nexus 6P General] luqythewise:
That's just what I'm telling myself ( worst case scenario) when I contacted them however they said they were waiting on a reply from huwawei either today or tomorrow and then they would update the delivery date accordingly, So it could just be a few days away. Apologies if I gave you a scare
[Nexus 6P General] blue scrubs:
:crying::crying::crying:

looks like I'm stuck using my laggy, crappy HTC one m7 for the unforeseeable
[Nexus 6P General] DJaPeR:
Yeah I have no idea what account it was put on!!
[Nexus 6P General] IberianPrince:
Nothing crappy about the M7. I'm using it until the Nexus 6P is released, and it's still perfect considering its age :)
[Nexus 6P General] riz157:
I think stick with it unless you have an alternative which will ship earlier. Text message is a good sign of them delivering, personally I think they have not had the man power to ship on time or they've been lazy.
[Nexus 6P General] belloni:
Too late, i've cancelled it and told them where to shove their £5.
[Nexus 6P General] chrisjcks:
Anyone else completely disgusted at Google being last to ship out their own product?

I know we say it every year, but it doesn't stop it being less of a joke.

Earliest it will come now will probably be Thursday due to 2 day shipping that Google use - 4 days 'at the earliest' later than its availability in retail stores.

Simply not good.
[Nexus 6P General] TonyHoyle:
It's worse than being last to ship their product.. they're already charging for phones in the US with delivery dates of Nov 10th.

Meanwhile in the UK they have less than 24 hours to get my order out of 'Pending' otherwise there's zero chance of them hitting their delivery target.
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Yeah I agree with you mate

It's ridiculous but then again cpw are much worse to deal with
[Nexus 6P General] hltbest:
CPW have been a nightmare... However they actually had my nexus 6p in when I popped in at 5pm! Currently typing off it, its amazingly fast and feels great in the hand! Good luck to everyone else trying to get one today!
[Nexus 6P General] andyfoster:
CPW have supplied some 32GB aluminium N6s. No-one else has. Quite how you equate that to Google being last is beyond me.

Presumably your issue is that you ordered online as soon as the page was up, like a good fandroid, and are outraged that some people less astute than you, who perhaps were even less knowledgable than you about the timing of the launch, etc., managed to get their handsets sooner.

Except that like many others on here, you know how it works. If you wanted to have a 6P sooner, you could have ordered a 32GB aluminium from CPW and even had a valid reason to ***** about them, if the majority of CPW posts are anything to go by,

I don't want a 32GB 6P. I ordered from Google. Google have given me a delivery range of dates. Some people guessed that we might have them by today. Others thought that that would be jolly nice and seemed like a good idea. The guess was wrong.

If I don't get my handset by the time Google told me I would get it, I might post some choice words. But unless/until that happens, I am struggling to find any reason to be outraged at Google.
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
I decided to walk into my CPW and see if they had any devices. They said at the minute they can only honour pre-orders and have none for general sale. Would be about 4th November earliest for general sale. They did have a dummy demo unit which I had a look at, I really really really like it! The hump is fine and the strip does not look that bad. I just want my 64gb version!

This business of pre-order really annoys me. I would much rather they held off on the announcement, made it then said right devices are ready to buy and shipped now!
[Nexus 6P General] xdaman85:
What happened to your screenshot of the DPD text message from EE? Did something go wrong?
[Nexus 6P General] ljcj1292:
To those getting impatient, at least you've got one with your name on it that I'm sure will be in your hands by the end of next week. Meanwhile, I along with many others are playing the waiting game to see which online retailer gets stock in first. I seem to be checking Handtec, Clove and Unlocked Mobiles on the hour, every hour :eek: I just hope they get some 64GB stock, I'm no longer fussed about colour, they all look good. A case will be on it for the first year anyways.
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
i think some one managed to unscramble the blocked out delivery number.delivery has been rescheduled 4 times supposedly by customer but i didnt , so ive removed the image even though number was blocked out and delivery back on track but for wednesday not tomorrow, thanks who ever it was
[Nexus 6P General] xdaman85:
That's taking the mickey, how the heck did they manage to unscramble the number, never the less, at least you got a dpd text. I called ee again now, and they are still saying they haven't got stock.
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
i know but with in 2 minutes of me posting on here my delivery was changed at customer requested 4 time to 28/10 then 3/11 then 28/10 again then 4/11, been on to EE and they have sort it for 28/10

DPD website shows customer requested the changes, only thing i can think of
[Nexus 6P General] blue scrubs:
It's the slowest, laggy, thing I've ever owned... Was good when I first got it though. But it turns itself off and battery life is one hour on screen time lol
[Nexus 6P General] belloni:
So the guy on the phone told me to reorder for collection, so cancelled the current one, then get an email about my new order being out of stock haha i'm done with CPW.
[Nexus 6P General] DJaPeR:
That sucks mate :(
[Nexus 6P General] uktechguru:
Highly unlikely really. Each company will have their own stock allocation and most of GPS orders are for higher storage models. I'm not fussed when I get mine. I'm feeling better knowing I have better warranty with GPS. There's really no need for any rush to get the 6P.

[MENTION=2991541]chrisjcks[/MENTION] You have to take into account the fact that CPW only have 32gb version - I'm guessing that most GPS orders are for 64gb or 128gb. There's nothing to make us assume there's been any delay and those who ordered 32gb from GPS could easily swap to CPW if they're that desperate. Google have their own timescale so wait until after expected delivery from GPS before jumping the gun. I can't see the reasoning behind cancelling GPS orders of 64gb to get the 32gb from CPW just because it's dispatching a few days earlier. A week really isn't that long to wait.

[Nexus 6P General] cddt:
Got mine today (CPW)

Think I've got a fault camera module lots of flickering in 120 and 240 video, camera app crashes making it unusable.

Anyone else having the same issues?
[Nexus 6P General] vinokirk:
All the pics are of the Aluminium version, it looks gorgeous :)
[Nexus 6P General] iateyourmic:
A colleague had his delivered today and we noticed flickering in slow motion videos too, but it's just the fluorescent lighting at work.
[Nexus 6P General] cddt:
Thanks for the note.

I'll try again tomorrow in daylight, I suppose it could be the frequency of my lighting as I have LEDs.

Camera app still crashes more than it should and had to reboot the phone about 5 times.
[Nexus 6P General] Tung_meister:
I'm sure 6.0.1 or something will fix these issues.
[Nexus 6P General] letom:
There really are much worse things in the word to be "disgusted" at, let's not get hysterical now....
[Nexus 6P General] happyslayeruk:
It really is. After I preordered I watched review videos and they were all done with graphite models and I wondered if I made a mistake. I'm glad to say I didn't and the aluminium version is a lovely looking phone.
[Nexus 6P General] Jrad44:
I'd really like to see a gold one, no shops are selling it and no reviews seem to have one. I've only seen that model in the stock images.
[Nexus 6P General] iateyourmic:
Japan only I'm afraid.
[Nexus 6P General] ChrisJ:
To be fair, while not perfect, it has been much better than the situation last year. At least this year you had a decent window of opportunity where you could get on the Play Store and order your choice of device without the it falling over.

Last year was a joke, despite my best efforts I had no chance getting an order in. I managed to get a Nexus 6 from GiffGaff way before they ever came back into stock with Google.

I personally have a 64GB Graphite on order which as of now isn't available anywhere else. Yes other have them from CPW already but we we'll get ours soon enough and then the annual Nexus purchase torture will be over and forgotten for another year.

Imagine if it was a seamless experience next year, order easily and delivery in a couple of days. That could actually be a bit boring. Most things in life are way to easy to get your hands on now, a bit of gadget frenzy once in a while adds some excitement.
[Nexus 6P General] akhan47:
Got mine this morning from CPW too. The Silver actually looks much better than I thought it would.
[Nexus 6P General] vinokirk:
Haven't heard about a gold one! Bit to iphoneish for me...

In other news I've just been given the go ahead to purchase the 64gb aluminium from GPS :DDDD (when available XDDDD)
[Nexus 6P General] Heisenberg:
Done!
[Nexus 6P General] Rox598:
Order for my phone is still pending and the case is still processing after 2 days. Gah!
[Nexus 6P General] usaff22:
Same here :/ Still Pending, for some early people it's due to ship tomorrow! Mine's due to ship by the November 2 though. Anyone wanna guess when they'll start charging cards?
[Nexus 6P General] ChrisJ:
Case went to Shipped this morning. Phone still pending. Some movement at least.
[Nexus 6P General] hltbest:
I was the same as you, the graphite looked great in the videos. However I went with the 32GB aluminium as it was the earliest to arrive in CPW! I have to say it looks fantastic!
[Nexus 6P General] xdaman85:
Anyone else got any updates from EE?
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
From all the pictures I've seen of the gold one it looks the best one but it's exclusive to Japan for the time being

Yes mine has been picked up by DP D,should Have been here tomorrow but its being delivered Wednesday

Looks like o2 will open orders for the 6P tomorrow and orders shipping by this week :D
[Nexus 6P General] xdaman85:
It looks like you're the only (lucky) one, no one else from xda has commented about getting a text from EE. I certainly didn't get a text, when did you preorder the phone?
[Nexus 6P General] jodvova:
is there TWRP available already ?

---------- Post added at 22:39 ---------- Previous post was at 22:38 ----------

6P works slow and more laggy than Nexus 6 running on despair kernel
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Yeah I'm pretty sure that the disk is encrypted by default which would make it slightly slower

But I wouldn't have thought it'd be to laggy
[Nexus 6P General] combat goofwing:
Preordered last Wednesday ,upgraded my contract and the wife's SIM only contract ,told dispatch today for tomorrow.Phoned them today told 4th November ,with in 10 mins of that got text saying DP D parcel coming tomorrow,after a few random text about delivery date confirmed it was picked up today but not delivered until Wednesday
[Nexus 6P General] xdaman85:
I preordered last Wednesday too, done an upgrade and was told 27th October. Oh well, knowing my luck I won't get a text tomorrow either.
[Nexus 6P General] Tomdarkness:
Just had a charge from "GOOGLE SERVICES" show up on my credit card. Perhaps there is some movement behind the scenes with Google Store orders? Still says Pending in the order status.
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
I hope so still pending and no charge on card yet for me
[Nexus 6P General] nrkf:
Me too but not really surprising as mine says it will leave the warehouse by the 27th.
[Nexus 6P General] chrisjcks:
Me too,

The phone cost has now come off my available balance.

Movement from Google is happening. :)
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
What's your leave warehouse date mate?
[Nexus 6P General] danyul91:
No charge on my statement, but my available balance is missing 450 quid. Please, please, please say Google have already dispatched but there's been a problem with the Store updating - it's my day off tomorrow and I want some Nexusy goodness!
[Nexus 6P General] chrisjcks:
27th Chubb's :)

So they have 7mins to get it out of the Warehouse LOL
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Cheers mate :thumbup:

Mine's not till the 1st of Nov

Just gonna stick with my Google order now that there's movement :D
[Nexus 6P General] nrkf:
