Not sure how your work place requires your email to be setup but for me, I'm able to use the CloudMagic email app to overcome that problem. I'm able to use my work email and it overrides the usual security requirements that Android will activate if you add your work email to the built in email app. I'm able to root and everything works beautifully.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] therock3181:
If all fails, he can try Nine before buying. it is the only one that worked for me.

I'm rooted and tried numerous ROM. All with Nine.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] poolparty:
It's a really great phone. I'm used to the big screen now, but sometimes I do wish I had something that was more useable with one hand.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Hepperz:
Unfortunately I don't get a choice of email app, we have to use Mobile@Work, and that checks for whether you're rooted - actually, it even checks for apps that are 'capable' of root... So it wouldn't work when I had Titanium Backup installed.

Anyway... I got so fed up with it I bought a OP3 and so far, I couldn't be happier! It's slightly smaller but makes a big difference, nicer to hold in the hand, I'm getting twice the battery life I was getting on the 6P, the output level from the headphone jack is better so I don't have to have it at 100%, oh, and I can happily make calls with people hearing me clearly!!

The 6P will be getting sold, and I'll think twice about a Nexus device to be honest.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] ddrager:
Now with the Nougat update to the Nexus 6P, this is still the best phone I've ever used. Usually phones get slow and wonky after a year, but the 6P keeps going...
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] ludovicien:
I suppose it's too much to hope for an improvement in the audio output following the update?

Yep. Premium specs.Latest Andriod.Cheap. What else can you ask?!
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Rmaclachlan:
Love my Nexus

Great phone, i miss my M8 (it tried swimming) but honestly i got this phone because Telus doesn't stock the HTC 10 and i am impressed. I may have bought this phone a the end of its lifespan but it is worth it. It is the first phone i have rooted and that was such a great thing to do. Plus its super easy on these nexus devices. The only downside i have encountered it how big this phone feels to me. I seem to go back to just holding my brick of aluminum (M8) and realizing that it really seems to be a near perfect size and shape. Something i wish the 6P had. But i guess that's what the next pixel devices are for coming from HTC, the gods of phone design haha.

Ps dont grill me on the M9 design, as far as i go its an iphone clone and i am in denial it exists...
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] lukearthursykes:
I 100% agree with you. This is just the best phone. I can't wait for the new "Pixel XL", but I probably won't buy it this year. I just love the 6P too much to let go of it. Just waiting for Xposed for nougat.....

Check WETA 8.4 ROM Custom in Developpment Thread, it gaves to my 6P big sounds improvments

I have to admit, this has been easily my favorite phone so far. I feel blessed to own it and believe it will be hard to top this combo for the price. Thanks :)

Just picked up a 6p yesterday. Loving it. Not impressed with the pixel phones. This should do me just fine for awhile till new phones come out next year.

---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:46 PM ----------

haha you fell for the meme like i did you are in for a big surprise, the phone sucks

it has MAJOR issues with the microphone noise cancellation software , hope you do not plan on using it to talk on

hope you do not expect more than 2.2 hours of SOT or more than 20 hour standby
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] M_T_M:
U mad tho?!!:eek:

Next time you plan to buy a phone make sure you contact the manufacturer and email them this type of groundbreaking, informative and positive feedback 'cause here at XDA we don't know what to do with it!

No more ranting using excessive * symbols, please. Hope you took a breather and feel better soon.

Cheers,

i did actually it was like talking to a wall they will not acknowledge any of the issues but i do not blame huawei for most of these problems i blame google for their crappy software and support but at least they spoke fluent English i was not actually expecting that, the only thing i can say about the hardware being bad is the god awful display

the phone is not even useable out of doors even on a cloudy day because the brightness is so poor even at full brightness

the only way this device is even useable is if you do not plan on ever taking it outside

because the screen is so horrible in daylight and because you have to edit your build prop to completely disable the noise cancellation software to even make a phone call on it which makes even the slightest breeze sound like a hurricane

and if you need to use it for more than 2.5 hours you are going to need to be tethered to AC because the battery performance is so poor

it is a great looking and feeling phone and i love the stereo speakers and the design and i really wanted to like this device but it is a rip off and it is an unusable POS plain and simple, not at all practical for doing anything with except for sitting in a darkened room next to an outlet and web browsing or consuming media or light gaming

also it gets hot when doing absolutely nothing but using chrome, sometimes it even gets hot when the screen is off for no apparent reason i can feel it heating up in my pocket

if you are a 500lb neckbeard who never leaves your couch or your bed and you do not care about making voice calls then i would recommend,but otherwise no stay away
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] ashwin988:
Omg you should keep this phone for at least a year bro..don't sell it away too fast hahe
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] guthrien:
Man, some folks hate this phone. It's always been great for me. Since I had to trade in my gd explosive Note 7 I'm rocking this with Nougat and it's fantastic. You know it will get some of the pixel features whether from Google or devs, that's a given. Great phone.

One of my few small gripes, slow HDR processing seems to have been greatly improved. Thumbs up!
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] gdroid666:
why can't google just do what apple does i would have been happier if instead of the pixel which is ugly and generic looking and removes stereo speakers ,they just kept the nexus name and released a phone with the same outward design of the 6p but with better internals and bug fixes,with an 820, triple the battery life ,double the screen brightness, a fixed microphone ,OIS, and an SD slot and also an IR blaster

all they do is remove remove remove, useful features and add ones nobody cares about

they are out of touch with reality and what users want this is why they always fail this is why glass was a failure because these dip****s are so up their own asses they think they know what we want but in reality they know absolutely ****all

they keep removing features and upping their prices ,all of these manufacturers do it now but google is becoming the worst

and jesus christ just stick with one manufacturer instead of going from motorolla to huawei to HTC to this one to that one

stop wasting time and money on totally redesigning everything from the ground up every damn year it makes no sense just pick one design and then improve on it,pick one manufacturer or build it yourself or sub it out directly to a foxconn like everyone else why do they need a middle man like HTC or huawei or motorolla anyways?probably because they just use them for customer support because google refuses to ever provide any themselves

i bought this phone thinking i could use it as my daily driver and use it for ubering

but i can not, because the screen is so poor on it that there is absolutely no way you see a ****ing thing on it in the daytime even if i put illegal tiny on my car and wore white gloves to avoid getting the screen dirty(because the slightest mark makes the visibly go from 2% down to 0 ) i could still never use this phone in the car during the day ,the phone is 100% useless in any kind of daylight at any hour of any day even on cloudiest day and it cant make voice calls how can anyone deal with ****? not to mention the abhorrent battery life

[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] GoogleAndroid:
How is battery life compared to the Note 7?

I just bought a 6P on Swappa last night for a good price and I'm super excited for it. I've wanted one since it released but couldn't afford to buy it outright. I've never bought a used phone so I'm hoping the battery life is close to what it would be new, and that the battery life is comparable to the Note. I absolutely love the Note 7 so it's a shame it's been discontinued. That said, I loved my Nexus 6 and I regretted trading it for the S6 Edge. I can't wait to have stock Android again.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] guthrien:
I got better life on the whole with my Note but I'm one of those people use their phone radically different and then charge at end of day. The Note had a ton more processes going on but seemed more efficient in screen usage etc. So note better, but the Nexus isn't awful. There's so much you can do with this phone they're very different. Don't sleep on the camera, while slower it's caught me photos in the same league.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] beartek:
Yup. Woke up this morning to the Google Assistant which is supposed to be on the Pixel XL because now part of my phone thinks it's a Pixel. This is such a great

FORUM! I love my 6P even more now that it's an ATT wifi hotspot and a Pixel XL!:laugh:

Well. My device didn't make it a year. Emmc chip fried last night. After flashing multiple different stock images and many attempts at using different boot images and recovery. Device won't do anything except bootloop. On complete stock it won't boot recovery. Using fastboot boot twrp.img results in bootloop. It's toast. Kind of disappointed it did not last a year. I'm all ready getting a Pixel xl instead. The higher price tag and being made by HTC will hopefully result in a much better device this year. I did really like the 6p though. RIP.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] info[]box1:
I just purchased my Nexus 6P about a week ago sqeaking baby fresh new. Could have gotten the Pixel XL for the specs, am just not a fan of how it looks. And I am a major HTC fanboy, from the Windows Mobile days.

I'm extremely happy with Nexus 6P. At this moment its the best device. Snapdragon 810 is killa, especially on a stock Android. Feels so righteous I love the build. Dont need eye scanner yet, I still use a pin. Battery is a 3450MaH and that's great. Even after using the Nexus 6, Galaxy S7 edge, iP7S Plus. I'm so in love with my Nexus 6P, no other phone for me. SD card slot is a bummer, then u adapt.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] tropical cactus:
Just got mine last Thursday. Quite happy with it too.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] AndroidUK2016:
So far, only two days in, and it's great. Best size screen and quality I've ever had, and same for the speakers.

I haven't got a fast charger yet which is frustrating and I'm still trying to customise all the subtleties of it but so far its great
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] pato2015:
just got mine for a week now for $250 used 64 gb.. love the phone except i notice it has a warmer pink tone to it .. i should grab the 1 year warranty and change the screen :) sold my moto x pure edition....so far camera is the only thing best which i love:)
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] sudar62:
Non pixel

It is clear that switching to pixel would be a scam, the nexus 6p is superior
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] limping_lama:
I really enjoy my phone. Screen size is nice for reading and consuming media. Camera is pretty decent but I dont really care about phone Cameras. My biggest issue is battery life. I run stock Android 7.1.1 with adaptive brightness off and brightness on almost lowest setting. Wifi / LTE / Bluetooth (for my SW3 watch) and I get 3/4 of a day if I am lucky. I am in china so I have to run a VPN a bit as well but still this chews through the battery so fast..... That brings me to the next thing I really like about this phone -> FAST CHARGING. I know I can leave it on the charger for 1 hour and be back up round 70 - 80% which helps but still wish the battery made it a full day. I get about 2 - 2.5 hours on screen time a charge. I have never ever seen this 5 - 6 hours and I have no idea how people achieve it. Maybe the use it in flight mode with a local video on loop ??

It gets a little hot when you are taxing the processor - but not enough to be uncomfortable and actually quite pleasant on a cold winters day - like a personal heater in your pocket.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Naksnaks910:
This is possibly the best phone I've had so far. I have a (bad) habit of changing phones (too) often, but since I got my 6P I haven't felt the urge to even look at other models.

Everything just "clicks" with this one. Great display, just the right size, enough storage, good battery, decent camera, pleasing design, the fact it's so easy to mod this... Just love it.

When they released this phone back in 2015 (?) I thought really hard about buying it, can't remember why I didn't. This one's a keeper, at least on my scale that means several months :D
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Sany789:
Im thinking about to switching from the Galaxy S6 to the 6P, would you recommend it? Are there differences between the UFS 2.0 and EMMC Memory?
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Gizmoe:
Yes there are many differences between ufs and emmc. Here is a good article explaining the difference.

https://news.samsung.com/global/emmc-to-ufs-how-nand-memory-for-mobile-products-is-evolving

UFS is supposed to be superior. Even with ufs though the s6 has nothing on the 6P IMO. Much better device all around.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Sany789:
So 6P i can buy without any doubt?
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] seabro01:
Not without any doubt, especially if used. There's the bootloop and early shutdown issues.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Sany789:
I would buy a new one. For Bootloops i can flash other firmware or Custom Roms, like CM or Pixelrom.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Gizmoe:
A new one is good. The bootloop he is talking about is a hardware failure plaguing many users resulting in an unfixable bootloop brick. You can't flash your way out of it no matter what you try. Google knows of the issue though so if it does happen they will replace it. I'm on my second unit all ready because of this. Even with this issue I would still pick the Nexus over the Samsung. But not used.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] DorianX:
I don't think that bootloop is plaguing... Is like a few phones have a defect but only a few.

I think is a good idea make a census/poll to check how many devices have that issue, but I think is less than 1% so nothing to worry

Thinking about trading my locked biitloader at&t s7 edge for a 64gb nexus 6p. Anybody have any good reasons not to do the trade? Not having root is killing me
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] FunkyMcBain:
This is probably the first phone which I feel like I'll keep for more than a year. I started with an iPhone 3GS way back and have basically switched phones constantly since then. This 6p though, I got it with 64GB, I feel can last me a while. My only complaint is it's just a touch too big but other than that I can't find too many faults with it. I just rooted it to get cf.lumen and adaware back on there and it's been solid. I think the only step up I can see right now is the pixel and that would strictly be for the camera.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] GFlexJohnny:
Yes, but...

I hate the location of the volume button and power buttons...I see Huawei swapped em on the Mate 9....which I want..... :p but I'm always turning the volume down somehow on the 6P, and makes me miss calls. I miss the back volume buttons from my old LG.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] diarm:
I don't mind the power button but agree on the volume keys. That said, that this is literally the only complaint I have on the device is pretty incredible. Sits alongside the M7 as my favourite ever phone and there's still nothing out there that makes tempts me even a little to get rid of it.

The volume buttons and the fact Google will no longer sell me a replacement charger, less than a year after I bought it from their store.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] GFlexJohnny:
I use a Quick charge 3 charger for my 6P and it definitely does a quick charge on it(even says so on the phone). I don't know if it's as fast as the Google charger, but it's pretty good. Run over to Amazon and get one. I picked a Tronsmart Quick charge 3...

amazon.com/Tronsmart-Charger-Charge-Technology-Galaxy/dp/B01MYWP60T/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1486582795&sr=8-13&keywords=tronsmart+usb+quick+charge+3 I tried to post the link, but it won't let me...trying one more time though...

Works great!

[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] rulyskull:
Just bought this phone a week ago, coming from a LG G3 but was using my old Galaxy Nexus due to LG making crappy hardware. I know this phone is a little old now but I got a good deal on a brand new gold 64gb one and I couldn't pass it up. I even would buy this if I had to chose from the pixel or this, for some reason this phone is perfect for what I want. Of course there are a few things I would change but for what it is it's perfect. So happy that the forum is so alive here too it's just as active as when the Galaxy Nexus was the top dog. Looking forward to hanging around the forums!

---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------

I came from an S6 and it was the best choice I ever made. Previously I had an N5 and i missed stock android and custom roms so I made the jump. The 6P has a great camera, screen, and amazing development within the community. You should make the jump.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] crixley:
S7 edge is a much better phone imo.

s6 I could see trading, but current flagship for a 2 year old device? That's just crazy
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Afro Samurai:
I'm considering picking this phone up as I currently have a Nexus 6 and it's looking like the end is near, it's a great phone but from what I hear 7.1.1 is it for that phone and I think the Pixel is just too expensive, so far it appears that you guys love this phone.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] dontbeweakvato:
I've never used the same phone for longer than 12 months. This phone is still a great device that amazes me 17 months later and can only be understood by holding in your hands. Screen is big and beautiful, the customized options I have available is exhausting to look through, and it's still an immense pleasure to be apart of; the endless pleasure of the Nexus experience. This device is the epitome of nexus' best
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] betahaedar:
I love everything about this phone, the best bang for my buck for approximately $399.

Currently running PureNexus with Flash Kernel and ARISE Sound System :)
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] sudar62:
I really enjoy using this phone, but I urge users to buy a case. My power buttons has gotten stale after a drop.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] cd993:
I first bought this phone in November 2015 and got tempted by the 'latest and greatest' Huawei Mate 9 however I recently sold the Mate 9 and bought a 128GB Nexus 6P again (previously just had the 32GB).

Ity's fair to say, that the Mate 9 is an impressive device but the following things lacked for me and I, as a whole,. just wanted my trusty 6P back :)

- Great stereo speakers ( I know the Mate 9 does have these, but I preferred the defined sound of the 2 matching front facing speakers of the 6P)

- The camera on the 6P is, in my opinion, very consistent and simple to use. The Mate 9 had lots of features but for example, the Night Mode requires you to hold the device still for anything up to 15 seconds - making it impossible with my shaky hands to capture a sharp yet decent low-light shot. The 6P camera just works. All the time. Every time, for me.

- Beautiful screen on the 6P - and whilst the Mate 9 is impressive, I really did miss those beautiful black levels seen on the 6P

- Rom development is virtually non-existent for the Mate 9 and whilst that may change, I just miss the latest updates and the endless amount of options/customisation available for the 6P

As for the battery, the Mate 9 was definitely the clear winner here. The best I got was 9 hour + screen on time and STILL had 20% remaining (that was following general moderate usage - browsing, chatting, listening to music and watching a full film) - I was commuting and had a long coach journey and that battery was more than capable of surviving. That I will miss. But hell, I bought a powerbank for a reason ;)

So yeah, I must say I surprised myself as this was the first time I've ever bought the latest phone and then went backwards - but that must say lots about the Nexus 6P!!

[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] Raverrevolution:
This phone is so awesome that I'm never jealous of new phones that will come out. I feel like this is still top of the line to this day.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] jhlar:
The 6p is everything I ever wanted in a phone. I've had Android phones since the original Droid and this is the first time I've felt like it's complete. I no longer look forward to new phone launches and I no longer get jealous of new phone features. This is the perfect phone and I expect to be using it long after support has ended. Note, this is still my sentiment after using it for 18 months, I bought it on pre-order.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] rulyskull:
Agree with you completely my only complaint is 3 GB of RAM and not 4 but to be noted, I recently bought this phone about a month back now.
[Nexus 6P Real Life Review] sumner2q:
I have had this phone since the first day it came out pretty order it I went and brought the S7 and S7 edge and took them both back because they just didn't seem a preium I have had the mate 9 and the one plus 3t and sent it back I don't know why I love this device so much just do it is a work horse for me and I just can't seem to find a suitable upgrade the only thing this phone lacks is expandable storage I only have 32 gb version I wish I could find a case that allowed be to easily carry around my flash drive I definitely would be even more happy.
