Had a live chat with Jose and the outcome is they need to see a photo of the pink tinge.
Not sure how good a photo will show it as it's not very evident but if the phone was is in your hand you would see it.

if you move the phone around the screen turns all sorts of colours

I don't think the Samsung's screen do this.

Pre-order cancelled.

A couple of pics of the white:

I do like the white, although it's a bit slippy so will be going with a skin of some sort I think.

Just return it and buy it again.

I have the white, got it today. SIM doesn't work though. I need a nano after coming from the n4. Tried to cut it myself but must have damaged it.

Does anyone know where I could get a screen protector that is actually in stock? Losing my mind over this and I've just cancelled a mobilefun order because they apparently had stock during the order and now they magically don't for another 2 weeks.

Do you really need one?

I haven't been particularly careful with my Nexus 6 (over 6 months old) and it's doesn't have a single mark on the screen.

Just nervous with mine as part of my job involves working in a machine shop. Suffice to say we've got bits of metal flying around all over the place and I'd like that layer of protection just incase. Having said that though I only had one hairline scratch on my Note4 (pre-temp glass) and zero on my Oppo Find 5 before that.

Looks like manufacturers can't even get temperered glass right just yet...

Ringke screen protector

Or they sell a case with screen protector here
Both in stock.
The smoke black case is available for prime delivery if you have it.

Screen protectors suck balls. Just get a pouch for when you need it. Mine goes in one when I walk the dog or go out

So I fully charged the phone at 2pm yesterday and this morning at 6am the battery was down to 5%. I was using the phone to install apps and general internet browsing using Wi-Fi. No Mobile data as the SIM in it isn't working. I am very confused why I ran out of battery overnight when it wasn't doing anything. I thought Doze was meant to kick in?

Any ideas?

PlanetGong · 12 Nov 2015 at 08:27

Got mine on Tuesday coming from a N4 and have to say loving it so far, it's just so responsive. Haven't rooted yet which I would normally have done by now. Only thing I'm missing is adaway, and I've noticed Tasker doesn't seem to be fully working.

Battery stats? Probably something keeping it awake.

Liquid_Entity · 12 Nov 2015 at 09:24

Screenshot this morning. I didn't expect the drop to happen overnight when I wasn't using it.

Which stores are carrying functional demo phones? A fake phone isn't going to do anything to sway me away from iOS.

Bump

bigredmachine · 12 Nov 2015 at 10:17

It is very annoying when stores are not carrying functional demo phones. CPW are a prime example of this for the 6P!

android-fan · 12 Nov 2015 at 10:21

Have done a stock check on the CPW website? One local store (Preston) was showing stock yesterday.

kona786 · 12 Nov 2015 at 10:46

Got wood?

Scottland · 12 Nov 2015 at 11:15

They look quite cool, but don't they stick on - so not as easy to remove?
