Speaking of which, is that the best manual camera app then? I think you're right, once you have manual controls, there's no going back
There's a post on reddit in the 6p section about this.
2 best ones seem to be:
Manual Camera

ProShot

I've got both if you want any feedback
Are they better then the stock camera app in auto mode ? I'm not really a manual camera type of user
Using the supplied charger it charges stupidly quick. It seems to be around 1%/minute, maybe more depending on what you're at when you plug it in.
No, only really useful if you want manual controls.
Stock camera with touch to focus and HDR+ should be fine for most people, white balance settings would be nice though!
The only thing that really gets stored on my phone are photos/video (more so photos) taken with the camera, I don't watch media on my phone, don't play games and I'm not much of a music person either so storage is really a non-issue for me.
On my nexus 5 16GB, I have over 400 photos/videos and still have about 5GB left.

Argh! Not sure whether to get this, the moto x style or a galaxy s6. The 6P seems very similar spec wise to the galaxy, but prefer vanilla Android. The moto is cheaper but lacking things like fingerprint sensor. So the 6P seems to tick all the boxes.
I'm like Nexus above. Just the photo's and video's I take really. They backup instantly to both Google Photo's and OneDrive, so if I ever start to run low, I simply delete old video.
I agree with this. I have a 16gb Nexus 5 and I have plenty of space. I use Google photos which frees up plenty of storage. The 32gb version of the N6P is more than enough. Can't see the point in watching movies on tiny screen so I'll never have to worry about storing them. All I'll need to store are music and apps.
So I now have/ordered : a case, 2 types of screen protector, USB C cables, a USB C OTG cable and some headphones. But I haven't even ordered the phone yet :-/ It's not helping that the G4 I ordered for my girlfriend has arrived and it's a crackling bit of kit, it makes my old Note 3 feel ancient.
My 6P will be replacing a HTC One M7 which I have absolutely loved using (sad considering it's only a phone
). I was a little worried about the size of the 6P until I received the Orzly flex case. Yes, it is big, but not as big as I thought it would have been - if that makes sense? Obviously, I'm basing this on the size of the case, as I'm still waiting for Mr Parcelforce to deliver today.....
All of them can be without root.
adb shell wm density DPI
Reboot
Done
Was running 400 on my Note 4 and have just tried a few with the 6P. 420 seems about right for the screen.
560 is the default for the 6P by the way.
Finally made my mind up and ordered 32gb graphite last night from Google and it was dispatched this morning. Is it next day delivery or am I gonna be waiting a couple of days? Burn In was concerning me as I use TomTom Go on my phone all the time, but I paid the extra for Google so I can just (hopefully) get it replaced if it gets bad.
Right, more issues with CPW. I ordered from GPS last night as they had it back in stock, so called up CPW today to cancel my order, to then be told am I sure as it will be in store tomorrow for collection...Now i've cancelled my GPS order going to get it in writing that it will be in store tomorrow other wise another complaint!
I got mine on monday. 32GB aluminium and man i can tell you this is a wonderful device.
Isn't too big i think, just the right size for me. Loving having an AMOLED panel finally!!!! Coming from a One M8 and the battery, camera and display blow it out of the water
