And wi-fi. Google is mapping public no-PW-req wi-fi hotspots for seamless switching. For me, I have good wi-fi available 90%+ of the time. Fi is no contract service, so you can take your Nexus phone elsewhere at any time if you're not happy.
Got a tip for us?

Who has Discover? Is the Google Store compatible with the 5% cash back promo for fall shopping? I'm trying to decide which credit card is best to use for the 6P.
Whichever one doesn't get declined. I had that issue twice ordering. Thanks, Chase.
Phew!
Got a tip from someone on reddit that the shipping times were getting longer and I put in my order yesterday. Only bought the 32gb aluminum which they seem to have the most of but still...
Estimated Delivery is Nov 18-20th. Kind of long but I'm actually ok with that because it gives me time to see real reviews and impressions from the first wave of users with enough time to cancel my order if needed. I've already returned 2 phones (Moto X 2014 and Moto X pure) in my quest to finally find a replacement for my busted Nexus 5 (still running so well but the glass is shattered).
Hopefully the Nexus 6p lives up to the hype!
That's crazy, ordered mine two days ago with a Nov 10-12th ship date. I'm somewhat surprised this devices just "sell out"
6P sold out in UK. Torn whether to keep my iPhone 6s+ or wait anything up to two months for a 6P lol
Pulled the trigger on a Graphite 32GB 6P a good few days back... fully clouded, so the 64/128 thing doesn't bother me.
Cheap silicone/polycarbonate case turned up a few days back, which is canny big... made me think it's _too_ big, but then I found my old Nexus One case and realised it's all relative! Really looking forward to getting my fingerprints on this beast now.

THey'll be up on swappa the first week anyhow. The n6 was up the first week for about $50 less than list price, plus no tax. It baffles me why these people don't just return their phones, but oh well.
Thats my position as well. I am interested in the 6P but want to get some feedback here from people that will be getting the phone.
Just posted the same thing over in the Z5 compact thread--I'm genuinely worried about 6P performance considering the 810 seems to be a dumpster fire (pun intended
) anywhere it's used, and the fact that so many OEMs seemed to have steered clear of it altogether.Just posted the same thing over in the Z5 compact thread--I'm genuinely worried about 6P performance considering the 810 seems to be a dumpster fire (pun intended
You know when manufactures start to highlight copper heat pipes and liquid cooling solutions in phones then their is a huge problem with heat build up.
And this is exactly what Sony And Microsoft have gloated about with their latest 810 powered devices...
A phone or tablet should just have a heat sink or shield and that's it, end of, if you have to then resort to elaborate cooling solutions, your either making a laptop hybrid like the Surface range or your chip is way way way too hot and will just waste it's efficiency.
Well in Microsoft's defense the 950XL is supposed to run universal apps through continuum as a full PC so might need that extra cooling. It will also let you run the external desktop and the phone concurrently, which will probably cause some heat buildup as well.
I'm actually surprised the 950XL didn't use an Atom CPU.
Interesting. Read through it and it was a bit silly, his iPhone lens was smudged. But the Nexus seems great in low light.
And the 5X and 6P have the exact same camera.
Damn it. The Nexus 6P is totally sold out in the UK and I was looking forward to ordering one. But I couldn't order it when it was first made available because I wasn't sure at the time whether I would have the money available.
The same thing happened when I bought my Nexus 4. Took a month or two to be able to order one which was a real pain. Hopefully it won't take that long.
