**** The Official Google Nexus 6P Thread ****

After playing with my 6P for a few hours I can safely say it's the best Android phone I've had.
It's mega fast at everything, feels lovely in the hand, has a gorgeous screen, and the speakers aren't bad either.
My Note 4 feels cheap in the hand compared to the 6P.
 
Ordered a 32GB graphite, hooray. Hopefully it'll be here before the weekend. Will be interesting to see how it compares to my 5X.

Anyone know which delivery service they use? Trying to work out where I'll have to go to get it.

I better be getting some ££ back if mine is delayed too... Though no email to say as such yet, so here's hoping.

Ordered last night and it's being sent via Parcelforce.
 
Finally done what I should have done ages ago - Cancelled with CPW and ordered through Google.

Anyone tried a OTG cable yet on their Nexus 6P? Tempted to buy a few cables from the One Plus shop.
 
Mine turned up just before 11 this morning, 32GB Aluminium... all restored from the N5. Blagged 40 quid back from CPW after my own order shenanigans (couple of healthy phone calls after promises made in-store and over phone).

Lordy, it's damn nice. Super-fast. Canny size, compared to N5 and dwarfs workmate's iPhone 5S, but by jingo is it a lovely but of kit!
 
So, what's a good camera app replacement that shoots RAW / DNG? I tried FV-5 but it doesn't seem to work properly with the 6P (couldn't focus or meter correctly).
 
This thing chargers crazy fast too, I think it took me 40mins to get from 30% -> 100%. It was charging at 2% a min or more at the start and only took like 7mins too reach 50%.

Battery life has been amazing too, I went on a long train journey where signal is horrible most of the time, used it loads of navigation/music, downloaded my phone Spotify playlist which is 5GB, played a bit of games, went on the web. At midnight it was sat at 30%.

Honestly still wish it was smaller, it was a straggle too use this 1 handed in bed for night time browsing and in generally it just feels a tad too big, maybe 5.5" with smaller bezels would be ideal for me.
 
Ahhhh stilling waiting on the 64GB versions to ship!!!

Given all the stories about delays etc., asked Google live chat today about them. He just said that all looks good with the order.

I asked about shipping early as well...he said it's possible, but I wouldn't count on it :p

64gb Aluminum ordered. Due for delivery 3-5 november.

I wouldn't count on an individual google rep. knowing much about if orders will be delayed or now, I would guess the info they are seeing will likely be not much more than the fact that your order still says pending
 
Got my 6P from Google today. Ordered it the day after the announcement and got a delivery date of early November, so I'm pleased that it turned up a week early :)

Now the long slog of downloading all my apps onto it!

And I hadn't bargained for the fact that the SIM from my Nexus 5 wouldn't fit so I'm going to have to get it trimmed down.

I was slightly concerned that coming from the Nexus 5, the 6P would be like a giant phone, but I'm pleasantly surprised at how manageable it is. Aside from a small area in the top left of the screen, I can pretty much reach wherever I need to when holding it in my right hand and using my thumb to press.

Agreed, but it's something at least. At least they don't already have the information that delays are happening for orders due to be shipped by Monday.
