[Belloni]

Is there an adblock for non root?

Anyone?

 

[Cosimo]

Ha.. Looking back on the orders that I had at Google. Remember the cheaper Nexus days?

Those were the days, especially with all the random order acceptance and delivery. "I ordered before you so how come....." Oh such fun.

Aye... sort of...

Forgot to add: got rammed for customs charges and some extra DHL magic charges at the time. Amusingly though, as I had it delivered to work, the DHL/customs invoice ended up getting hoovered up by our finance team! Took about 10 weeks after delivery to sort it and pay it myself, as the damn thing had been coded, scanned, authorised and everything.

6p scratch and bend test http://youtu.be/tTIaUH6PIvo

That is shocking.

 

[robj20]

That is shocking.

Which but, scratch is fine, bending seems a bit easy though.

 

[Nexus18]

Scratching is fine but the cracking along the screen because of said crack is very worrying

Dreading the drop tests, can't see the glass withstanding the shock at all.

The bending is very worrying too, it seems incredibly weak to every other phone even the iphone 6.

Wondering if google/huawei might fix/improve this area with future batches?

 

[dessimpson]

If mine doesn't come on the dates stated (3-5 nov) I'll probably just cancel it and get something different.

 

[Amraam]

Wow, now I'm worried. Mine is still on pending so have time to change my mind. I have mobile insurance and will buy a case so should be fine, but really worried about it bending in jeans pockets...

 

[robj20]

Not fit for purpose if you can have it in your pocket without it bending.

 

[AshD93]

Thing is you don't know how extreme he was with the bending. There was no comparable measure just his opinion. Though yes, the scratch and then crack is bad.

 

[robj20]

Why is the scratch bad? Is it 7 it scratches at that's quartz. So keys wont make a dent.

 

[Rimsy]

Looking at the pressure "wobble" on his hands when he bends it suggests he's applying quite a lot of force to get it to bend like that. Still not good but hard to guage if its going to be a real issue or not

 

[reflux]

My graphite seems ok, suggest Reflux washes his mitts

I suggest you hush

It's deffo a fingerprint magnet, YouTube says so

Have a look at his other videos. This is not his first bend test

 

[sb89]

Surely the crack in the glass would make the phone structurally weaker? If that is the case, then he should bend it without a crack in the glass.

 

[Kimi]

Was just about to click buy on a 64gb 6P until i saw that video. Not sure now

 

[Captain Fizz]

The glass itself raised whilst bending before it really bent/cracked properly.
So would only make a very little difference.

Wishing Nexus protect was available but generally not too concerned about the bending thing, I have plenty of friends with an I phone 6 and none of them have had any problems.

Does seem annoying that as nexus protect isn't available at launch in the UK, early nexus adopters are precluded from it :-/
