More than likely, One Plus 5. Can't spend 800 on a phone anymore. The Note 4 was my last time. After the Nexus 6P, 500 is what I'll spend on a phone. When you like stock Android, no reason to get priced gouged by Samsung or Google with the pixel. I can get the same hardware with just about stock Android for 300 less. I don't need to have the update the fastest, I usually wait anyway to see how the updates go.
[Nexus 6P General] angle409:
I will get op5 if it supports global 4g bands. But i doubt it will.
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
Not sure on how or even why this conversation went from a disagreement due to a difference in opinions to personal insults.
[Nexus 6P General] pipnmike:
Pixel 2, Essential, or OnePlus 5. Need Verizon support and whatever has the best battery life
[Nexus 6P General] 91ludesit:
I have the essential phone reservation, but I'm having second thoughts after seeing the leaked camera pictures. I dunno, I've been an Android user since the og Moto Droid, but work is offering to pick up my number and bill since I'm on call every 7 weeks. They only give out iPhones though, so I might just go with the iPhone 8.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
If you get an iPhone make sure to keep an android phone as well. I would get totally bored if I had my iPhone only.
[Nexus 6P General] 91ludesit:
Honestly I used to be a flashaholic. But my 6p isn't even unlocked. As I've gotten older I just want my phone to work. There are things that annoy me to no end about iOS as I carried an iPhone for work at my last job.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
I'm the same way these days. iPhones do work insanely well. Soooooo smooth too
[Nexus 6P General] 91ludesit:
I mean Android is so far ahead in design and features. However it seems like the more Google does the more they break. My 6p was great on release, but lately it's gotten very laggy and prone to constant app crashes. I'll have to commend Google as they sent me a replacement like two months ago even though I was out of warranty, but it didn't really fix much. I'm still very conflicted as I've been a die hard Android user since 2009.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
I don't know if I agree as far as design goes, I think they're about on equal footing (aside from features). My iPhone literally never lags, I don't think I've ever even seen a touch of lag.

iPhone is like a wife, dependable and you know what to expect even though you may be slightly bored. Android is like a mistress, fun and exciting but untamed.
[Nexus 6P General] strafer69:
Don't know yet. I hate this new bezelless craze and 18:9 crap. I REFUSE to give up my front facing speakers. I looked at the Axon 7 and was not impressed. I'll hold on to this phone as long as I can.
[Nexus 6P General] Kaleshwar:
Same here
[Nexus 6P General] matt4321:
Snap! 6P is really good other than the battery issues. I recently replaced my battery so have a new lease of life on it, will keep it til it dies.

There's just nothing that has the wow factor on the market for me at the moment. Most things just look okay-ish, not worth upgrading for
[Nexus 6P General] Kaleshwar:
I got a refurbished unit and I'll tell ya. I've never ran into any problems whatsoever.
[Nexus 6P General] matt4321:
That's the thing, when the device works it's great! After my battery swap I'm like you, haven't run into any issues and average around 5hrs SoT per charge. It's like new.
[Nexus 6P General] armyav8tor:
The 6P has become unusable for me as a daily at this point. I just joined project fi and plan on using the 6P as a second phone just for fun. I never had the battery shut down issue but the 810 is crap. It lags, overheats, drains the battery and can do all those things at once at the most inopportune time. The thing that really broke the camel's back was my experience with Nougat and the DJI Go 4 app. The two just doesn't get along, crashes, freezes, etc. I can't have it constantly crashing on me when I'm flying my Mavic Pro. So at first, the 7+ was going to share duties as my daily with the 6P. But after a month, the 6P is just sitting in the drawer. Android is fun sometimes but at this point, I think I enjoy more having a phone that is fast and reliable. So I got an Apple Watch series 2 to replace the Moto 360 Sport as well. I'll still play with the 6P as my second phone but after the 6P takes its last breath, I'm probably done with Android because there are no fixes to the fragmentation issues. The sad part is, the 6P is a Google product and runs pure Android, yet they still couldn't make it a reliable product, proof to me that Android is flawed. I no longer like being an involuntary alpha/beta tester for Google.
[Nexus 6P General] Kaleshwar:
From your perspective. I understand.
[Nexus 6P General] strafer69:
I am out of warranty and Google will still replace my phone but they want to send me a Frost one instead of the graphite I bought. WTF. They tell me they are out of graphite. I have the Nexus protect but don't want to spend $79 on a phone with no damage other than the battery issues. Just wondering if I should hold out for Google or just file a claim and say screw​ it!
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
I'm kinda getting to the same point honestly. My 6p is more of a toy than a phone at this point. When I want to mess around I use that, but my 7 plus is my daily driver.

I really wish apple would open things up a bit, but at least I know what to expect when I leave the house. No random battery drain, lag or "rogue apps".
[Nexus 6P General] ixon2001:
I got rid of my 6P couple of months ago while it still worth something, now using an iPhone SE 64GB, which i got on sale plus Wife discount before they where replaced with the 32GB & 128GB models as i didn't want to spend over £500 on another flagship.

I thought going from a Quad HD 5.7" screen down to a 4" screen that isn't even 720p would be a problem but actually it not the screen quality & sharpness overall is pretty good & i can type just as good on the SE as i could on the 6P.

I've grown to really like this little SE, it does everything my 6P did even better in some things, plus it's a little powerhouse with the A9 so will handle the next couple of iOS updates no problem.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
It's 750p, plus the UI actually renders double then downscales in order to avoid grain. Search it, it is actually pretty cool how it works.
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
Most people won't be able to discern the difference in PPI but there are a few that can tell the difference. If they look about the same for you, then you'll be considered the former.

For those who can tell the difference, it's definitely noticeable which makes it difficult to go back to lesser PPI.
[Nexus 6P General] ixon2001:
326ppi on a 4" screen is plenty sharp enough, i have decent eyesight and i cant see any pixels on the SE at normal viewing distant.

Also to quote what crixley posted about the screen being 750p that for the 6 & 7, the SE is 1136 x 640 so only 640p

In my previous post i mentioned the SE does a few things better than the 6P which I'll list.

Audio Quality is much better though headphones

Video is superb 4K is stabilised brilliantly even though it doesn't have OIS.

Wifi Calling & Volte as standard on my network.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
1080p vs 1440 is hardly noticeable at all on a phone screen. The s8 ships with 1080 and that is a larger screen than ours.

750p though I would agree, however the screen is much smaller so even then barely.

Missed this when replying to something else, you're completely right about the screen I was thinking of the 6,6s, 7 etc..
[Nexus 6P General] Suhas_JS:
The only phone I would have changed my N6P for was OP5.

But, by the looks of it, I think I'm gonna carry on with my N6P for some more time.

Here are my reasons -

Display - QHD vs FHD - Why downgrade when you've got something better?

Chipset - I'm happy with the SD 810 so SD 835 isn't gonna matter much.

RAM - not sure if that's playing a major role in my day to day usage.

Software - People might argue about the customisation in Oxygen OS but with such a wonderful developer community and newer mods coming out every day it hardly matters. It already feels as though I'm using a Pixel. I'm already on O DP3 and happy with it. Going forward, N6P is sure to get Android P (and possibly Q???)

The only thing that stands out is the camera of OP5. I'm no Wanderlust or a Globetrotter so that can wait.
[Nexus 6P General] ixon2001:
Suhas_JS

The Nexus 6P won't be getting anything official after Android O, it might not even get 8.1 the only way it's going to get P & possibly Q is from the Dev's.
[Nexus 6P General] Suhas_JS:
With Pixel C and Nexus Player still getting updates, I'm optimistic that Google wouldn't abandon N6P easily, which has arguably been their best in the Nexus line up. They've mentioned in their devices timeline that N6P "won't be guaranteed" further updates,but haven't said that they'll stop supporting the device. Having said that, I would still stick with N6P for a good year or so.
[Nexus 6P General] :
I had the 6P for about a year. His battery life was terrible (after N update mostly). I sold it to get an iPhone 6S Plus (ironic yeah).

I'm pretty happy with it (greater battery life and I missed a way to sync between my computer and my phone). The iPhone is much less hot and that's really nice

Anyway the 6P sometimes miss me (the fingerprint in the back and the speakers were just fine compared to the iPhone and Google Assistant is in my opinion much smarter and comprehensive than Siri) but the battery killed it. iOS is ****ing boring compared to Android but it works pretty well (and I can't jailbreak it at the moment... fck). iOS is much better than years before (I got my first Android phone and never saw iOS again since iOS 6) and is more coherent than Android (just the widgets... they looks well compared to Android and everything is clear).

The continuity between it and my iPad pro is awesome too (for messages and calls mostly).

A friend who had a 6P took the HTC 10. He doesn't regret it.

I may come back to Android later, when it'll be more mature.
[Nexus 6P General] tksc23:
I am going to wait and see on Pixel 2.

I am amazed by how many people mentioned OP5 and no one mentioned U11. I know it's a bit more expensive, but you get waterproof, QHD, best camera, best stereo speakers and even closer to pure Android experience. It also doesn't look like an iPhone.
[Nexus 6P General] Suhas_JS:
Just had a look at Honor 9. Seems like a beast with literally the same specs as that of OP5 and costs 3/4 the cost of OP5.
[Nexus 6P General] Arcide:
Like the note 8 will be priced fairly, it will probably be like $900 at release.

My Nexus 6p is one year old, and I'll keep it for one more year.

After that I'll most likely get the HTC U11 or the LG G6, or if something better is released by then.
[Nexus 6P General] josemedina1983:
Yeah the battery life is pretty lame after couple of updates. Google really dropped the ball with this phone it seemed with every update the phone got worse finger sensor works slow battery dies with regular use speakers don't sound as good had to sent my phone to RMA for the bootloop issue. I was lucky that I got a refurbished 64gb instead of 32gb from huawei RMA but it doesn't take the horrible google support and they never listen when people call out battery drain even after a battery swap. I wanted to get a OnePlus5 but it kills my soul that it looks like a iphone 7 I don't know what they were thinking either. I think I might go another year with the 6p or get a onePlus3T or a pixel xl unless google come out with the pixel 2 under 500.
[Nexus 6P General] RojasTKD:
I disagree. Every phone I've ever owned had better battery life than my 6P after just 14 months. My LG G5 that I've had longer than the 6P still had about 94% of it original batter life while my 6p is around 67%. Same with my Axon 7 that is just a few month younger.

2 hours of SOT after 14 month is ridiculous.
[Nexus 6P General] Geezerooo:
True but.......I never said it was a quality battery. Some battery's ultimately last longer than others
[Nexus 6P General] shadowcore:
You wont fimd any. In europe there are none.

Maybr if you live in America, you have better luck.

The best i could find was some mid-range asus phone.

---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 AM ----------

Except its a glorified midrange phone.

Also, you iphone enthusiasts, hows your "dongle".

I hear iPhone users charge their "premium" Bluetooth earpieces via dongle viagra.
[Nexus 6P General] dontbeweakvato:
Either a 2017 pixel, if large enough. Or a note 8 if the eventual lag doesn't scare me away before I even use it. And the note 8 won't be able to change much like the P does. It'll be the same ol device 12 months later. The boringness will also hit me. By the time custom roms are available for it I will probably be on a different phone in 12 to 24 months
[Nexus 6P General] Att.Fan1982:
If the 2017 Pixel XL or XXL(whatever google plans to call it) isn't the BEAST of a phone that it should be then I'll just stick with my current Nexus 6P until next year on Android's 10th year anniversary.
[Nexus 6P General] tropical cactus:
I've had my 6p since November 2016. My battery health is 96% and I've basically been following the don't charge over 80% accubattery recommendation and not letting it drop below 10%. Only thing that isn't good is not having OIS for 4k video recording but I'll be getting a gimbal soon. Not considering a new phone when I'd have to fork out double the price of a decent gimbal to get a u11 or S8. I like the 6p. No random reboots on rooted stock and elemental kernel. Great low light pics too. Leviticus 1.3 system wide and sound has never been better.
[Nexus 6P General] tafo:
I was considering OnePlus one 5 as my next phone, however, when it was released, for me, it was really a big disappointment especially the low quality hyped camera(and the weird thing that many reviewers are raising the camera quality!!) , so far no phone is satisfying, i think ill stick with N6p for another year and will see what will be next.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
Meh it's fine tbh. Next pixel is supposed to be sans headphone jack, as is many future phones. See how much you laugh then.
[Nexus 6P General] shadowcore:
I would be okay If next pixel came with two usbc ports.

Because otherwise, its a regression of technology and capabilities. Like an iPhone..
[Nexus 6P General] tjsynkral:
I'm pretty happy with my 6P (never had a battery problem, but I'm still on 6.0.1 and scared to update to 7 until a solution is found).

I'll upgrade when a phone comes out with my 3 requirements: B66, B71, and it has to have root.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
Or like not hitting puberty, so basing your life around cell phones and making fun of people who own different phones than you ;)
[Nexus 6P General] 7sen:
I think to buy 6p but second hand (used) does it worth it now. Because i have an iphone plus for 2 years Before i was have nexus 5. I love nexus [emoji106]. I need it for custom rom. It's good for me or should i buy other phone
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
I just bought an s7 edge and am keeping my 6p as well, but I'll be honest, the edge performs a million times better, has better battery life and a much nicer screen. The one thing making me keep the 6p is stock Android. Otherwise the build quality is absolute crap.
[Nexus 6P General] 7sen:
Thank you bro [emoji846]
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
No problem at all. I just wanted to be honest with you, a lot of people on here will tell you it's the best thing ever made, but search 6p bent or bent volume button ( which coincidentally just happened to me a couple days ago) and see how many people have had issues.
[Nexus 6P General] Toutatis_:
I had to reply to this because this is wrong in every possible way. Both phones have similar specs and you're talking about the 6P just like it was a 2009 mid-range smartphone.

Why didn't you go with "billion" or even "trillion" times instead? I bought my 6P on 2016/01/01 and it still runs very smoothly and fast. I'm sure many 6P users are in the same situation. You wouldn't notice any major difference with your S7 Edge as far as performance goes, trust me.

Battery life mostly depends on your usage and environment (signal, ROM and kernel, installed apps, Bluetooth, tethering, Wi-Fi or data, brightness and so on). Some people can achieve 6 hours SoT with their 6P, as far as I'm concerned I'm easily getting between 24 and 36 hours of standby time with moderate usage. You'll find 6P users getting bettery battery life than S7 Edge users and vice versa.

Both phones have similar battery capacity (3600 mAh for the S7 edge and 3450 mAh for the 6P) and I assume your 6P's battery is older than your S7 Edge's. Which makes the comparison quite biased in any case.

Yet another statement out of nowhere. Both phones have a Quad HD AMOLED display. Perhaps you say so because of the curved edge screen on the S7 Edge but I think that "much nicer" isn't really appropriate here.

"Absolute crap" build quality? really dude? I'm not even arguing on that one. Anyone with common sense will agree with me: your choice of words is nothing but irrelevant.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
1.) It is wayyy smoother. I use both on a daily basis

2.) Battery life is about double. I would assume due to the sd810. I've flashed about every rom and kernel on this forum. Even brand new there is/was no comparison.

3.) The screen is known to be better. Read any reviews/comparisons if you don't believe me, or better yet put them side by side. You think all amoled screens are created equally and resolution is the important function? LOL Shows your thoughts are useless.

4.)Alright then.... It bends easily, the volume rocker is a piece of flimsy aluminum... It is known to have bad quality control and build quality.

However fanboy away! You're exactly what I talked about above
[Nexus 6P General] Toutatis_:
I stopped reading right here. Have a nice day!
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
"In web browsing we have the Exynos Galaxy S7 edge leading this improvised pack with its 13:32h result, but here the Snapdragon version (10:09h) doesn't have what it takes to claim silver - it's the iPhone6s Plus for a change (11:51h). The Nexus 6P and LG V10 are in their usual unimpressive form and in this test hover around the 8:30 mark."

"The Snapdragon S7 edge is no slouch either when it comes to watching videos and calls it a day after almost 17 hours - yes, impressive, but still 3 hours less. Then again, the iPhone 6s Plus throws in the towel another 3 hours earlier (13:57h). The Nexus 6P (9:59) will need two full charges to match the Exynos S7 edge"

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 PM ----------

It's made out of tin foil I think. It bent in my pocket, which has never happened on any phone I've ever owned. That is what I get for thinking cheap Chinese crap would be worthwhile. I'll keep it to test android versions, but I don't trust taking it out of the house anymore.
[Nexus 6P General] Geezerooo:
Your S7 runs better than your 6p. It happens. I also have a friend who has an S7 that is a piece of utter junk. His battery doesn't last more than half a day and it keeps freezing. So it's basically just opinion at this point. There's bad phones everywhere.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
So all the battery tests from reviews are opinion? Cool
[Nexus 6P General] Geezerooo:
That's not what I said........... Read it again. I said every phone is different.......
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
There still has to be a degree of objectivity otherwise science would be meaningless.

That being said, there is a lot I like about this phone. Battery life and build quality are my main complaints.
[Nexus 6P General] ps000000:
After read many OP 5 review.

I might go for OP 3T 128GB

I saw it take a better low light shot than OP 5.
[Nexus 6P General] AL_IRAQI:
Hmmm, ill wait until my 6P dies and decide
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
You could get a great price on it I'm sure too. They're awesome phones for the price.
[Nexus 6P General] dunjamon:
I'm very much in the same boat. I was pretty much set on the OnePlus 5, but then hearing about some of the issues has put me off a bit. Not sure if the lower res of the OnePlus will be noticeable or not. I think the Pixel 2 will be overpriced, so might come back to the OnePlus 5 later this year after a couple of updates. I've had a Nexus since the Galaxy so might be time for a change.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
It really isn't for the most part. I think the whole QHD vs FHD thing is overblown. With two quality screens you'll hardly notice a difference
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
You cannot say "you won't notice QHD vs FHD". Some people have sharper vision, 20/10 or better, and can easily discriminate between the two. If you cannot appreciate the difference, then you aren't those that can see it.

It's equivalent to a nearsighted person saying that HD and UHD look the same on the TV from a distance. Those who have the vision to appreciate the resolution will very easily be able to tell the difference.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
I said hardly.

I'd love to do a blind test on a few of you that are so sure of yourselves. I bet it'd be hilarious results.
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
Some have a higher density of cones in their retina and are able to distinguish higher levels of resolution. It's not a placebo effect, people can easily discern the difference.

Next time you go to the optometrist, ask to see the 20/10 line at distance and near and then see if you can make them all out. There are a number of those that can make it out clearly. Here's the kicker, 20/10 isn't even the lowest you can go.

[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
We're talking about a small screen at a foot or so distance, and not large letters at a decent distance. Apples and oranges though keep flailing

That 1% of you that notice a very slight difference must have a really rough life
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
You do realize that it's not apples and oranges, right? In fact, it's the exact same thing. It actually explains optics and how we perceive light.
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
Distances vs size do matter, unless you don't know as much about science as you claim.

Being able to discern a 1ft letter at 10 feet is not the same as a .050" letter at 6 inches, though since you're so scientifically apt I'm sure you already know that
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
Distance and size is the same thing. Further objects are viewed as smaller and smaller objects are viewed as further. How do you think illusions, like Ames room works?

When an image hits the eyes, photoreceptor density is what determines the finest resolution, or MAR, you can see.
