[Nexus 6P General] nardow:
Definitely not! This phone (Nexus 6P) is awesome. I'll stick with it for more one or two years, maybe.

The market is too saturated. New devices being launched every single year (some with no innovation at all...)

Wow, that's like an iPhone f***ed a Moto G lol
[Nexus 6P General] Chad_Petree:
Damn it's gonna have those ultra chamfered edges like the HTC 10 :(

I'm trying to forget about those huge bezels but it's hard to !

[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Damn it's ugly. The reasons for having a Nexus (Pixel) these days are so few. So many apps now don't work with root and the actual devices themselves aren't that great, no SD card, wireless charging, waterproofing etc :(
[Nexus 6P General] Nickchapstick:
No way I'd buy that. Looks too much like an S7 or an iPhone. Gotta have front facing speakers too. But does it have a headphone jack? LOL.
[Nexus 6P General] MichaelMcEntire:
I think it looks fine, interesting even. I'm not sure if I will upgrade because my 6p just does so well for me. It's funny though, I remember this type of thread from the time the 6p was coming out, same kind of comments.
[Nexus 6P General] galaxys:
This is so true! I've seen similar on most Nexus launchings! :eek: And then most of the same "no" members then buy it!:rolleyes::D
[Nexus 6P General] gleggie:
Yes, there is a headphone jack. Am I the only person here that doesn't mind the design? I think it looks fine, the big thing I'm worried about is how the camera and battery will perform. Also it better have amoled and not LCD
[Nexus 6P General] Milly7:
I agree with you on the looks. And like the 6P it might look better when we finally see the device in clear photos. It would be a major plus if the glass was there for a functional purpose like wireless charging or something else.
[Nexus 6P General] JoKe_42:
I don't see any reason I should upgrade the 6P to anything else, everything works great for me and there is absolutely no benefit in this hardware upgrade for me... and if my 6P doesn't die a "natural" death just after the 2 years of warranty, I will certainly stay with the 6P for as long as possible.

Regards,
[Nexus 6P General] leondestiny:
only recently got myself the 6p, its a great phone.

the newer nexus has no front firing speakers , no go for me !

thankfully i have almost zero issues with my 6p, the screen is beautiful ,the speakers are clear and loud.

i will be tryin to keep this for a couple of years !
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Why couldn't they shrink the bezels? I just don't get it. After using a Note 7 for a week, the difference with the smaller bezels is massive, you really don't feel like you're using a 5.7screen phone and it fits so much easier in your pocket, easier to navigate around the screen etc etc . The 6P feels gigantic in comparison.
[Nexus 6P General] Pecata:
I personally will not ''upgrade'' this year. I have been getting every Nexus when it comes out but this year I don't think that it will be a big improvement over the 6P. This year's Nexus/Pixel is the most unexciting one yet...for me. I will keep my 6P another year I think.
[Nexus 6P General] 12MaNy:
None of us really know what the Pixel XL (Marlin) looks like yet. These renders are the Nexus 5x successor.
[Nexus 6P General] fkloznica:
By the way, as far as I can tell, the Pixels will by the first US devices with Snapdragon 821 by a long shot. No one else is using it.

It's utterly bizarre that Google won't name Pixel manufacturing partners while Apple, kings of secrecy, make it open they work with Foxconn.

So, if you're the person who wanted Google to "really get out there and market their phones," you may finally see your wish granted.

Pixel phones will have exclusive Google support, exclusive software features, and exclusive financing options. Google is going for it.

I think we're going to see Google do with Pixel what they have so long hesitated to: take the gloves off and compete with Android partners.

I think it's safe to say Google is getting out of the "cheap phone" business at this point. Go big or go home.

This one is more hearsay: price point being thrown around for Pixel XL is $649

At this point, we believe Pixel and Pixel XL will only have two options: 32GB or 128GB. No 64GB model.

[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:

Very interesting!

Looks as though the Nexus and Nexus philosophy is dead or dying.
[Nexus 6P General] JayantSparda:
Time will tell my friend :)
[Nexus 6P General] zymphad:
Nope. Have become accustomed to the front dual speakers and HTC terrible sales speak for themselves. Also why do they think I want an Android that looks like a coy of an iPhone?
[Nexus 6P General] kyzn:
It's HTC. They like making Android phones look like iPhones.
[Nexus 6P General] wvcadle:
I would agree, with the exception that Google already tried getting out of the 'cheap phone' market with the N6, and, well, we see how that worked for them.
[Nexus 6P General] mrsean:
I would definitely upgrade to the Marlin if it does not have the "muffled voice, poor call quality" problem like the 6p does. I know that the majority of owners are not experiencing this issue but it's outrageous that Google has decided to just ignore it and mobile technology media has allow them to do so.
[Nexus 6P General] krabman:
Agree, I picked up the Note also and it is much easier to deal with but on the flip side I miss the speakers.
[Nexus 6P General] tech_head:
My 6P is great. no plans to upgrade.

Still have a year on my Google warranty.
[Nexus 6P General] galaxys:
V20 sounds like a flagship: Forbes review and pictures here
[Nexus 6P General] vtmike:
I'm conflicted on the screen that curves. Like that there is almost no bezel, but I feel the curved portion is weird with the distortion when watching video. Would be nice if the flat portion were the full 16:9 resolution, and the curved portion was extra pixels for other situations that don't include video playback.
[Nexus 6P General] Chad_Petree:
I've had to exchange my Nexus 6p two times already because my friends tell me I sound under water , and the times I've tried calling some type of costumer service on my phone they hang up on me and say I CAN'T HEAR YOU :/

[Nexus 6P General] TheIgster:
Think you guys maybe got bad ones from the bunch?

I've never had any issues in call quality and never had anyone have problems hearing me or saying I sound like I'm underwater. I always have to turn the sound down during a call as well as it is always super loud. No call issues on my 6P at all. Strange there would be differences like this.
[Nexus 6P General] ps000000:
Nexus 6 = 5.96

Nexus 6P = 5.7

[Nexus 6P General] dratsablive:
If it doesn't include an RGB led for notifications then it's a no go for me. Makes no sense why HTC doesn't include this.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Here's the new nav bar for the Pixel.

Apparently all homescreen icons have to be circular and the whole "experience" is built around the Pixel launcher.
[Nexus 6P General] Lepa79:
Yup, I have had issues with voice quality as well. I could not have the volume higher than midway, once I do that, people on the other end will have hard time understanding me. I sold mine about a month ago in preparation for the latest, what is now going to be called, Pixel.
[Nexus 6P General] TheIgster:
Hmmm. I think you misunderstood my post. I was saying I wasn't having any issues with my 6P or call quality. Some people have complained that the call volume was not loud enough, this is why I noted I have to turn mine down many times simply because the volume is more than loud without issue.

And yes, we all know the new offerings will be "Pixel" phones...God that name is awful.
[Nexus 6P General] wtherrell:
Unless it includes "Pixel Dust" and a notification light I will probably just keep my N6. Plus, I don't want to go smaller.
[Nexus 6P General] Johnny Wong:
I'm quite pleased with the 6P at the moment, so no. Finally got it to run smoothly on Nougat and with good battery life. If anything, the iPhone 7 Plus intrigues me more with the new camera.
[Nexus 6P General] ashwin988:
Honestly the nexus 6p has excellent sound quality from its speakers and I have never had any issues as such. I think it could either be your stock or your reception. No one else has been complaining about this except you.
[Nexus 6P General] alex9898:
I find the Pixel XL interesting and, maybe, even promising but I must say that my 6P run so well that it will be hard to replace it.

It's my first Nexus device and, before this one, I only had HTC, iPhones and a lot of Samsung devices. So maybe It's why I'm so happy with my 6P.
[Nexus 6P General] stankyou:
In the event we brick this new Nexus, can we officially call it a Dead Pixel?

Some supposed leaked images of Pixel XL....

[Nexus 6P General] gleggie:
I really hope the pixel has a 3000mAh battery or larger. That paired with a 1080p amoled display would get pretty solid battery life once rooted with a solid kernel, optimizations, etc. Otherwise pixel XL it is
[Nexus 6P General] zymphad:
Quite possibly the ugliest phone ever...
[Nexus 6P General] iamterence:
Remember when everyone was literally saying the same exact thing about the Nexus 6P?

Good times.
[Nexus 6P General] Don_Perrignon:
Here's what I want:

- Front facing speakers

- AMOLED

- Optical image stabilization

- Notification LED

- Qualcomm's quick charging (not manufacturer's quick charging)

Wishful others:

- FM radio

- Small bezels (Axon) did it right

- Camera button
[Nexus 6P General] Chad_Petree:
We'll get stereo speakers ( but no front facing ones ;) ) , AMOLED , ois , maybe a terrible notification light like the one on the nexus 6p , quick charging 3.0 , big bezels ala Nexus 6p (but with wasted space because this time there are no front facing speakers ), no camera button .

I don't have the phone , but it has been leaked a looooot by now

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6P mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 6P General] Don_Perrignon:
Right, which is why I said what I said.
[Nexus 6P General] wtherrell:
The first list is exactly what I want. Otherwise I'll probably keep the N6.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
I'd love Wireless charging and always on display but I've resigned myself to not having it. An LED notification light is a must!
[Nexus 6P General] streebs87:
I don't understand the need for the huge bezel on the bottom. It's ok for the 6p because the front facing speakers make up for it. But if there isn't a front speaker or capacitive buttons then what's the point?

I'm still very happy with my 6p so I'll definitely be keeping it until the next round of Pixel's come out next year.
[Nexus 6P General] JayantSparda:
Let's hope high quality Stereo speakers like the M8/6P or like the 10
[Nexus 6P General] mattkroeder:
The rumor was that this phone is recycling an old HTC design. I forget which phone it was but it supposedly held a fingerprint sensor in the bottom bezel which is why it's so large. The fingerprint sensor is moved to the back but they kept the old front design.
[Nexus 6P General] mihovil13:
I don't frankly understand, why would someone, who doesn't play games or really depends on a smartphone camera, upgrade the 6P yet.

New SoCs don't offer anything better other than gaming performances. The 6P is virtually equipped with cutting edge technologies, that yet haven't been strongly upgraded or entirely changed.

60 fps UI lock, 4k video recording, slow-motion, solid shooter, amazing (if not the best) speakers, brilliant screen and software, blazing fingerprint, great build quality.

The only thing for me missing is waterproofness...but I'm willing to close my eyes on that as I see that it's not that consistent with my S7 Edge.

Other than that, I really can't name anything else I would need over the 6P. I still use it as my daily driver, even tho I own the S7E and use it just for Gear 360 development.

Since owning the 6P, I haven't been happier with a phone ever before since iPhone 5S. In my opinion it's perfect for me. Especially at this price.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
Wow.....

David Ruddock on Twitter

Looks like I was wrong: now hearing that regular 32GB Pixel (not XL) will start $649 in US. Straight up iPhone pricing. Wow.

Don't know what Pixel XL will cost, unfortunately. But obviously more than $649, so at least $700+ I'm sure. That's insanely expensive.

Google's big bet, apparently, is going to be in device financing options. They expect people to buy more if they can pay over time.
[Nexus 6P General] snoprosledneck88:
I agree completely. The 6P is not outdated by any means. TBH I think the "Pixel" next year is going to be a big jump, and not by cost I hope. Nothing about the upcoming phone makes me say WOW. It was a blessing in disguise when my son broke my nexus 6. I was originally holding out for this years release and I would be really disappointed right about now if that would have been the case.
[Nexus 6P General] Nitemare3219:
The 6P is the first device I have had in my laundry list below that I have felt will last longer than 1 year. I actually sold my first 6P thinking I would enjoy the S7 Edge more - less than a month later, I bought another 6P.

The device is the fastest (in user experience) Android phone I have ever used. ALL of Samsung's phones this year slow down like a dog at times and make me want to chuck them out the freaking window. The camera sensor is large and fantastic. It still competes with other flagships easily, with its only shortcoming being a lack of OIS. If you use a tripod or some other strong stabilization technique, you will get an amazing shot every time. I pitted the 6P against a $1,000 Sony RX100, and other than the RX100 having better detail due to the larger MP count, the 6P processed JPEGs on a superior level with HDR+. I also have an Axon 7 right now, and it is actually a HAIR less loud than the 6P without any tweaking. Its sound is better though, mostly due to the built-in Dolby EQ tweaking. The 6P's fingerprint scanner is noticeably slower than the A7, but it practically never fails to read. My A7 will fail to read daily. The large 5.7" display is a joy to use, and when you calibrate the settings a bit (my personal preference anyway), it looks incredible... really close to what Samsung is currently offering. And with the kernel brightness boost, it is brighter than the majority of phones available. And lastly, stock Android is unbeatable in terms of appearance, fluidity, and basic functionality. Yes, it lacks some added features that are useful from other OEMs, but they screw up the basic UI in some manner to negate whatever benefit they reap.

The 6P could have been better. It could have had a better DAC/amp, OIS, bigger battery (if they hadn't opted for such thinness), QuickCharge (for sake of compatibility with the vast majority of available chargers), and a better camera app with true manual control. I think that's what I hate most about the 6P. The camera sensor it uses is still one of the largest of any smartphone. But it has the most feature-limited app available. Google even added basic EV compensation in the Nougat previews, but then removed it for launch - why?! Despite its few shortcomings, it is the best smartphone I have ever had. And my girlfriend who isn't all that tech savvy has said the same thing about hers.
[Nexus 6P General] dwj:
I both agree & disagree with many posters. I think my 6p is excellent and could easily keep it for another year. But confess to enjoying a new toy once a year so will probably upgrade. The HTC10 got many excellent reviews this year so with that kind of hardware along with pure Google software, I can't see that it's going to be a terrible phone. The camera on my 6p is great for casual snaps but I think it is limited along with any camera on a phone. I have a DSLR and often find it a chore to lug around my tripod with me. Do people really carry around tripods on the off chance they will take a photo with their smartphone!?
[Nexus 6P General] got2best:
God I really hope they don't mention this at the launch event :crying:

[Nexus 6P General] daewond3r:
Not entirely true. There was a rumor that it could come with the Snapdragon 821, which would support LTE-A. It could also be the same 820 that the Note 7 uses, which would be capable as well.

http://www.droid-life.com/2016/09/06/t-mobiles-lte-a-400mbps/

That would be a useful improvement for a lot of people.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
No notification light apparently.
[Nexus 6P General] blinde:
This whole pixel duo sounds more and more worse every day as these leaks pop out. More expensive phone with worse parts.

I'm more than happy to stay with 6P.
[Nexus 6P General] gleggie:
Not sure what Google is thinking, but with the rumored pricing I don't think the new Pixels will sell well. Im optimistic that they'll learn their lesson though and the 2017 pixel will be reasonable....
[Nexus 6P General] Jammol:
Speaking solely USA wise. Verizon is the only carrier that has(is about to?!) have LTE-A capabilities that would actually mean something. So there really would be a point, unless there are going to be thousands or more people that are going to be using it on Verizon?

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------

Damn things look like iPhones with a fingerprint sensor on the back. NO THANK YOU!!!
[Nexus 6P General] daewond3r:
True, I guess that would only benefit US users at the current time. T-Mobile is rolling their LTE-A out as well and I'm sure AT&T won't be far behind.
[Nexus 6P General] Don_Perrignon:
Better battery life.

810 has a 20nm process.

820/821 has the 14 nm process.

If these leaks are true, Google will find sloping sales. I don't get how they get Huawei to get so much right and allow HTC to do so much wrong. It boggles my mind. The 6p just needed OIS (smaller bezels would have put it over the top). Again, assuming the leaks are true, I'll most likely pass this year.

Hopefully next year's snapdragon will have a 10nm process. And, hopefully we'll finally get a no compromise Pixel.

That better not be true. Google is on crack to charge that much. I might as well take my chances with a lit Note 7 if I'm going to step into that price range. The only reason i got this 6P was because of Project Fi. If these prices are going to be much higher, F Google for real.

Just because it's HTC doesn't mean it's worth that much. That ship is one more bad phone tactic away from becoming the next Titanic.
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
You guys had to have seen this.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/09/19/non-blurry-photos-google-pixel-pixel-xl-leak/

Not sure what to think. The similarities to the iPhone and recent Samsung devices is very apparent. Plus, the bezels all the way around are huge for whatever reason. I don't like phones that are white faced like this, so maybe that's why I'm hesitant. But holy hell is it ugly.

Also this.

http://bgr.com/2016/09/20/google-pixel-xl-release-date-price/

The phone can be seen in the new Google Nest commercial. Watch it at that link before it gets taken down.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
It's definitely ugly and incredibly expensive. What a let down!
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
It's not even the way it looks, it's more so that they keep removing features from the damn phone.

First they took away the size of the screen (Nexus 6 to the 6p)

Now they're removing the front facing speakers (6p to Pixel)

Not to mention the lack of wireless charging.
[Nexus 6P General] bradputt:
$649 for the most basic pixel?!!

What is Google smoking????

Omg looks like I'll keep my N6p a little longer.....
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
I had 2 of the 6p's but returned them for hardware issues. I might end up buying a new one from Google when the Pixel is released because I'm pretty sure the hardware revisions have been situated by now.

Do people still have problems with the red/pink screen tint that covered like half the screen? I did on one, then my second device was warped and didn't lay flat.
[Nexus 6P General] Batfink33:
It doesn't even look like the Pixel has a notification LED, that's basic!
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
It's pretty obvious that phones have reached a plateau. Manufacturers tried out the 6" screens but most have shied away or never went that big in the first place. Same goes with the dual front facing speakers, now we're seeing a bottom woofer with top front facing tweeter (high end) working in tandem. The only phone I know of that has small top and bottom bezels and front facing speakers is the Nexus 6.

5.5 or 5.7 is the standard and I'm fine with that.
[Nexus 6P General] Don_Perrignon:
Axon 7.
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
Essentially a "better" version of the Nexus 6, but the size isn't the same.

I should have prefaced my last comment with "For all main stream manufacturers..."

But I get your point.
[Nexus 6P General] TheIgster:
According to spec leaks, the Honour 9 is going to be 6" from Huawei. The top end model will have 6GB or RAM, 256GB of storage space and will come with led light, fingerprint and iris scanners and a 20MP camera. Why would anyone buy a Pixel when this phone sounds awesome?
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
Again just speaking on the major manufacturers - Samsung, LG, Sony (questionable), Motorola, HTC...I think that's it.

The general public haven't heard of Huawei or Axon.
[Nexus 6P General] TheIgster:
Huawei is the second largest manufacturer in the world now. With them coming into NA with the Nexus 6P, the honour 9 will be just as much present as anything by Samsung or LG, when it is released.
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
There are probably stats on this, but isn't it safe to assume that most people who buy smartphones get them directly from carriers either in store or on the carrier's website?

It isn't very common to stumble upon an ad for Huawei/Axon/OnePlus. Even if an everyday person does see the ad, why would they buy that over something that has a well known, long running positive reputation?

Just my opinion, I don't have the facts to back it up, but it makes sense to me. The general public is always attracted to the popular "thing", whatever that may be.
[Nexus 6P General] 12MaNy:
If the base price is $649 for the smaller one...... I'm going back to T-Mobile and getting a V20.

I understand corporations have to make $, but this is greed. Pure and simple. This why I quit buying Samsung phones 2 years ago.
[Nexus 6P General] stevew84:
I'm interested in the Axon 7 to be honest. Or maybe the 6p, not sure. I'm still holding out for the official pricing on the Pixel.
