[MENTION=2241052]Hereisphilly[/MENTION] Thanks for the reply :)

After seeing the release I instantly thought..... "I am 100% getting this device". However I do now have a couple of concerns. Unless I have misinformed the device only comes with a one year warranty..... surely if they believe in the quality of the device they would of offered two years warranty like other companies who produce flagship devices. This coupled with the fact that it has a processor which has a reputation of over heating and whilst many people have tried to state that the issues with the processor are no longer there.... we won't know until we have actually put the phone through its paces. My nexus 7 2013 which I bought last year has had to go for repair twice under its one year warranty.... which doesn't give me much faith in the hardware of nexus devices.

My predicament is that my current handset has had a smashed screen for the past three months and I desperately need a new device. Any advice? I'm also unsure whether to do it you're way or a two year deal with EE.
[Nexus 6P General] vido.ardes:
Just switched to this deal myself (my 2 year N5 contract ran out this month), and I looked around, if you are data heavy / call minute light this is by far the best deal around
[Nexus 6P General] Hereisphilly:
Definitely, I'm a heavy plex user when I'm commuting, so this plan is perfect

---------- Post added at 06:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

You must have been super unlucky with that tablet!

Personally, I've never had to send a phone back under warranty. I've had plenty of defective devices that I've returned within a week or so from receiving, but after I get a good one its not been an issue

The SOC is a non issue for me, the 2.1 revision, the fact it's been out for a while and the aluminium body means that if it gets how (which I doubt) the casing will conduct alot of the heat away
[Nexus 6P General] Ritchiejoe:
I'm guessing you upgrade every year hence the buying it from google or CW
[Nexus 6P General] Hereisphilly:
Yeah I tend to, I used to have phones on 2 year contracts before the N4 came out and since then I've bought the N5 and N6 outright

I've found that if I upgrade yearly I can offset a big chunk of the cost of the phone by selling my old one as there is plenty of value left in it
[Nexus 6P General] monkfish_lad:
I have been really tempted by this as well. How do you find the coverage? Heard bad things about Three as a network. I assume it is a 4g plan?

Currently paying £12 to Virgin Media a month for Unlimited everything but it is 3g only.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
I have the 3 sim only unlimited 4g data deal with 2000 odd texts or something and 200mins. I got it on a deal last year and only pay £12.50 a month. The 4g and data in general isn't great I don't think, I find there's a lot of dead zones in coverage as I travel a lot. For £12.50 a month though, I can't complain and you also get 3s free data in selected countries which is great.
[Nexus 6P General] monkfish_lad:
I can't fault Virgins coverage (EE network) so may just stick with it a little longer. Can't say I ever do anything that 3g is not fast enough for. Streaming Music through my Google Music account and playing dab radio stations in my car eats through data so would like to keep it unlimited.
[Nexus 6P General] Hereisphilly:
Three's coverage is fine in cities, it struggles in rural places tho

However three bought O2 earlier in the year, so I imagine after its approved by ofcom they will merge the networks
[Nexus 6P General] vido.ardes:
I have been with Three for about 4 years now, they have definitely gone from strength to strength. I find coverage very good, I am in the south East so I don't know if I am lucky or if that is representative of the rest of the country.

It is a 4G plan and the speed is amazing, and it is a truly unlimited, no caps or throttling. If you travel to the right countries, feel at home is priceless. Free 0800 is a nice touch too.

As previously mentioned the purchase of O2 should only strengthen their network coverage, so hopefully that gets rolled together soon!
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
Best for me is giffgaff. Sits on o2's network and they are brilliant. £10 month 1gb 4g (I am a light user) 500 minutes and unlimited texts, for for £12 you get the same, but with 2gb 4g!
[Nexus 6P General] chrisjcks:
I'm on Three

I get 200mins, unlimited 4G & 3000 Texts

£12.90

----

Also - I keep hearing people moan about the bezels on the Nexus 6p - so thought I'd share this:

2015 flagships

iPhone 6s plus - 67.9% Screen

HTC M9 - 68.52% Screen

Sony Z5 Premium - 70.4% Screen

Galaxy S6 - 70.7% Screen

Galaxy S6 edge - 72.04% Screen

Nexus 5 - 72.33% Screen

OnePlus 2 - 73.3% Screen

Nexus 6P - 74% Screen

LG G4 - 75.22% Screen

Note 5 - 75.9%

Moto X Style - 76.36% Screen

The Motorola Nexus 6, which I've always thought had small bezels sits at 74.03% Screen, which is almost identical to the new Nexus 6P.
[Nexus 6P General] eefo:
Okay so my status is changed from processing to shipped .

But still no nexus.. Why google why you keeping me away from my love ? ?
[Nexus 6P General] hussan882:
Thanks :)

If you don't mind me asking, what does your order say re ETA?

I ordered on the 29/09 and my eta is 2nd - 4th November, so maybe they will all start shipping over the next few days.
[Nexus 6P General] jaythenut:
Same as you mate
[Nexus 6P General] hussan882:
Thanks - must be patient, definitely not something I specialise in!
[Nexus 6P General] chancho83:
Is there anywhere in London to just walk in to a store and buy any of the nexus 6p models? Did anyone tried the Google store inside Curry's on Tottenham Court? Or Any luck anywhere in cpw stores?

Thanks
[Nexus 6P General] andyfoster:
In a 179 page thread, consisting mainly of people *****ing about being messed around with pre-orders and still waiting to receive their phones, and desperately trying to find ways to get hold of one sooner, no-one has tried such an obscure solution as going to an old fashioned bricks and mortar phone shop.
[Nexus 6P General] sidhaarthm:
I work within 5mins walking distance of that Currys/PCW/Google Store on Tottenham Court Road. I can check again but someone from this forum has already tried visiting them earlier and they just advised to go online. They've got nothing in there.
[Nexus 6P General] cddt:
Just been in to my local CPW, and they have no local or central stock to replace.

Suggested Options

1. Could give them my phone today and they could start the process of replacement but have no idea when I will get the replacement.

2. I keep hold of the phone and when they have local stock or available central stock they can replace. Suggest coming back into the shop next week and see if they have stock.

Bummer!!
[Nexus 6P General] @home:
I went to CPW & they didn't even have Nexus on show let alone one for sale.
[Nexus 6P General] TeaSeaLancs:
I checked Tottenham Court Road CPW, Oxford Street Currys/CPW and Warren Street Currys/CPW/Google Store on Monday and they hadn't even a sniff of a handset. Except for demo models. It might have changed since then but I doubt it. Google's out of stock again, CPW probably don't have stock any more. Doubt they'd waste money sending handsets to a store when they can sell all they need to online.
[Nexus 6P General] wazka2:
I have got mine originally online on contract with click and collect in store. When I went there today I said I spoke to customer services and they told me to come in store and order an exchange unit.
[Nexus 6P General] chrisjcks:
Apparently all my deliveries have arrived....

Phone

Case

TGSP

..... Yet I'm stuck at work! Aaaggghhh
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
I decided to get mine delivered to work :D
[Nexus 6P General] belloni:
Just got confirmation text/email from there it's available tomorrow for collection.
[Nexus 6P General] Hereisphilly:
Failed delivery! Grrrrrr

Aparrentely the driver couldnt get into our works' yard, which I know is a lie because our cranes weren't in use nor did we have any major deliveries

Fantastic service from parcelforce
[Nexus 6P General] kalairn:
Update... looks like Google Play Store has ran out of nexus 6p, it gone back to out of stock on all versions.
[Nexus 6P General] pifsworld:
Ok my 6p just landed hope it's all OK, no defects...
[Nexus 6P General] chrisjcks:
Haha I can't get the barcode sticker off the back of mine!
[Nexus 6P General] IberianPrince:
Try soaking it in a bowl of warm water :silly: :good:
[Nexus 6P General] chubby65:
Glad I got mine in last night :D
[Nexus 6P General] chrisjcks:
Lmao I got it off.

Just doing a restore from my Nexus 6. :)

Case fits tightly & looks good too!

(Worried it will Disturb my cheap TGSP tho which I've yet to put on)
[Nexus 6P General] uktechguru:
That annoys me too! Why oh why would they do that if it's difficult to remove. I know it's to match up imei etc to the box and what's given within the about section but seriously, why not those shiny type stickers that just come off easily?
[Nexus 6P General] losimagic:
I managed to get mine off pretty easily - just got a nail under a corner and it came straight off

---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

This device is gorgeous! I can't believe how good everything about it feels!

One problem I did come across and I hope someone manages to come up with a new design to help with it - because of where the power and volume buttons are, my car dashboard mount can't grip the 6p in the middle, either has to be low, or high, and whilst that doesn't matter too much in portrait mode, in landscape (which is batter for navigation), it gets a bit lopsided as there's too much weight on one side.
[Nexus 6P General] Kid_droid:
Well my graphite 64gb is ETA 2nd-4th Nov. So maybe we will see movement Friday for Monday if we are lucky. That leave by date sounds like Friday could be the day.
[Nexus 6P General] chrisjcks:
My cheapy £4 TGSP off ebay doesn't work so well with the official case.

The power & volume buttons don't work so well because the TGSP is interfering, also the volume down actually lifts the protector but it returns itself once I'm done.

Darn it. Lol :)

The TGSP was a nice fit & its design is the exact same as Intelliglass.

So, I can see this being an issue for all brands when using the official case.
[Nexus 6P General] Nekromantik:
Must have missed play store becoming open for orders :(
[Nexus 6P General] DanielF50:
Refresh the page a couple of times - the only ones avaliable are 32gb Graphite at the moment, but I'm waiting for the 64gb Frost to come back in stock [emoji4]
[Nexus 6P General] ljcj1292:
Same! :D Let me know, cba to check every 5 minutes in the hope it might. I really think they are having stock issues and honestly think we'll be waiting until very late November/First week of December
[Nexus 6P General] vinokirk:

[Nexus 6P General] TonyHoyle:
Played around with mine a bit.

The USB A->C is *really* short - I'm glad I bought a couple of spares... gonna need some more (I haven't unpacked google's charger yet as I haven't the spare sockets for it, but will probably do so to see the difference with my standard charging setup).

Having used the fingerprint reader a bit I'm firmly in the camp of it should be on the front.. it just feels like it's in the wrong place for everything right now, as it's too low to rest on my finger when it's in my hand - I have to hunt for it* - and hard to get at when it's sat on the desk, although the pattern still works for that of course.

Lastpass integrates with the fingerprint reader , which is nice.

It feels a lot bigger than the N5 it replaced.. I'll get used to it.

The default sounds are *really* loud - not at all like the N5's subtle 'ping'. I jumped out my skin when an email arrived..

Edit: I just put it on to charge. USB 3.1 to C cable to my existing multiport USB. Phone said 'charging rapidly' and said 42 minutes left at 50% (so 84 minutes from 0%, in theory). Not sure how that compares to the google charger but it's good enough for me...It's better than 1% a minute which is what my N5 did, except it's much bigger battery.

* Although thinking about it I wonder if I could train it to recognise the bit of finger that it does fall naturally under... of course there's no print there so it wouldn't be exactly secure..
[Nexus 6P General] SC11:
Not too sure of this has already been mentioned or not, I got my Nexus 6. I'm upgrading from the Nexus 5 Went to put my SIM in.

IT DOESNT FIT!!! #FAIL​

Lovely phone just looking at the risks, shall I chop it myself or wait till tomorrow lunch time to pick up my SIM from the Vodaphone store! Confusedddddd!
[Nexus 6P General] viren_s:
set it up without the sim.

get the sim tomorrow.

that's what I'm doing.

going to miss cataclysm rom on the nexus 5. hope it comes to the 6p

[Nexus 6P General] riz157:
I've ordered both frost and graphite 64gb expected delivery 2nd. Will keep frost and sell graphite or return if not sold.

Glad I ordered frost which I wasnt initially sure off as everyone was banginf on about the silver and graphite. Now that I've got my aluminium version I'm pretty sure I made the right choice.
[Nexus 6P General] DanielF50:
I'm not your slave, check yo'self! :silly:

We probably will have to wait that long tbh! I just ordered a Spigen case, so have to buy the phone now though :|
[Nexus 6P General] ljcj1292:
This one? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Spigen-Rugg...e=UTF8&qid=1446069045&sr=8-4&keywords=6p+case
[Nexus 6P General] ilikegoogles:
I have bought a case, a screen protector, 6 type c cables and a quick charge power bank. I definitely need the phone to hurry up!

Awaiting the 128gb.
[Nexus 6P General] losimagic:
Just been checking my 32gb silver unit for that raised bit at the bottom on the back - it's ever so slightly raised on one side, can feel it if I stroke the edge with my finger, and on the other side it's ever so slightly lower than the main part of the back, so it almost ripples from left to right

Not sure what to do really, it's not really visible and I guess it's not going to get any worse - once it goes in a case i'll probably forget all about it

If I take it back to CPW I'm guessing it's going to cause all sorts of headaches
[Nexus 6P General] DanielF50:
That's the one! & I've just noticed that it's £4.01 cheaper on Amazon than their site! Any way to cancel my Spigen.co.uk order?

Well you're definitely in for a penny then aren't you! hah

edit: nevermind, I'd rather have it directly from Spigen as their great to deal with about warranty issues :)
[Nexus 6P General] ljcj1292:
Ha ha gutted! There's this one aswell: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/verus-high-pro-shield-series-nexus-6p-case-satin-silver-p55405.htm

Looks more premium but its also alot more expensive
[Nexus 6P General] DanielF50:
Yeah, I was going to get that one when Spigen said they weren't making one, but I've had their cases on both my previous phones and they've been great so I'd prefer to stay with them to be honest.

Might get that one too if it reduces in price though :eek:
[Nexus 6P General] iwantanandroid:
Got a message from DPD about a parcel being delivered tomorrow but no change on GPS. Case came today via Royal Mail so hoping the phone comes tomorrow. GPS still says 3-5th Nov

The Nexus 6 on Marshmallow was seriously fast & a big improvement from Lollipop but nothing like this, not even close.

Just placed my order on Play Store for 64GB Aluminium!

Delivery date is 12-13 November.

Hope its sooner!
[Nexus 6P General] Stretlow:
The order I placed at 7.30 yesterday is now at my local depot.

No reason for them not to deliver it today
[Nexus 6P General] usaff22:
Yep, the 64GB Aluminium is back on the Google Store. Hopefully this means they'll start fulfilling the preorders soon. [MENTION=2746542]Stephen[/MENTION]

Ordered 64gb Aluminium at 07:45, delivery est. Nov 18th. I was waiting for Frost but I'll play it safe and get an order in.
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
Just seen that looking at a 2 - 3 week delivery! Not holding out much hope. I am going to play my orders off against each other. At 7:45am my 32gb version arrived at my local depo! Hopefully should get it today. If I can get the 64gb version with in 14 days I'll return the 32gb. If not cancel the 64gb order! Win Win :D
[Nexus 6P General] chistery:
If they've added the 64GB one for sale they must know they have stock coming, I guess.
[Nexus 6P General] droid_does:
oooo decisions.

same here

By the way do google charge bank accounts/debit cards the same day or do they only start processing/start the charge close to the day the phone gets shipped?
[Nexus 6P General] chistery:
They do a pre-auth, which drops off after a few days, but charge the card when it's ready to ship.
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
I find it odd that they are putting up more orders, without giving people with existing orders a definite delivery time! They should fulfil existing orders first, before creating new ones.
[Nexus 6P General] vinokirk:
64gb Aluminium ordered today, shipped by 18th Nov :D

Graphite looks really stealthy and hides the CE markings (if you're in Europe) better than the Aluminium/frost versions

Aww thats really disappointing I didn't realise the CE marking we that bad on the Ali version. I kinda wished I have gone for the Graphite now.
[Nexus 6P General] pifsworld:
I got the graphite yesterday and its the best nexus I've had and he's right the black hides all the CE stuff printed on the back.
[Nexus 6P General] kezown:
Best phone I've ever had, hands down. I Originally got the Z5 but it was really laggy and uncomfortable to hold so I sent it back and got the 6p.
[Nexus 6P General] belloni:
Called CPW customer service if my phone had been delivered to store, obviously it had, thanks for letting me know...
[Nexus 6P General] thetonyclifton:
Assuming it has the massive CE text at the bottom as pictured above? Might have to go with a skin to cover that if it is on my Frost.
[Nexus 6P General] Stephen:
Never bothered me too much, I spend more time looking at the front of the phone rather than the back of it :D
