Have now had 6p for about ten days, got to say I am bitterly disappointed in battery life and think I will be sending it back. I do a job where I can spend a long time away from a power socket and endurance is key for me. I really thought the 3450mah battery would be good enough, but looks like the SD810 is the power hog that had been mentioned before. Will go back to the note 4 and probably wait for the SD820 devices now.

Even that is tough, I use my Nexus 6p way more then my iPhone 6s since I don't need a tablet as much.
Battery life I would say there about the same with a slight edge too the 6p. The 6p also charges crazy fast which is really nice. Honestly I think the future might just be super fast charging with similar battery life.

In my experience having good signal 99% of the time is what makes a battery last.

You scratched it and want Google to give you a new one for free ? Are you an only child by any chance ?
i'm number 3 of 6.
i had to get my nexus 5 out (shudders at how tiny it feels) to get a blurry picture of what i mean.
it's not a scratch but looks, when in hand and can properly see it, like the finish on the aluminum was smudged. it's the mark next to the volume button

strange one, was only joking about, just rma it then, they should send u a new one first if it was from the play store
Damn, loving this device. Starting to think I'd like the Frost though! I have 4 more days to return this one... I've never just changed a phone for the sake of it before, temped!
I have bought 3 Nexus 4's, 2 Nexus 5's a Nexus 7, and 2x Nexus 7 2013's - so hopefully they won't mind

Decided to kill a bit of time at Heathrow today by trying out some nice over ear headphones at Dixon's and have got to say I do find the volume lacking a bit. Had to crank the volume up to max on all of them to get things sounded how I wanted and still was left lacking somewhat. Guess it was quite noisy being an airport and all but even the sennheiser momentum 2's were a bit quiet..
Anyone else find them a bit quiet or has 20 years of playing the drums suddenly taken its toll on me?

how do i go about backing everything up exactly as is? i just want to click one button back up, then another and it's restored on the replacement? is this possible without root? android restoring feature isn't enough. doesn't bring back things like notification tones i've put on the device, and too many apps don't copy the data such as textra which takes an age and a half to put back.
Well since my M8 is slowly dying by the day (now can't connect to wifi at all) I bit the bullet late yesterday and went for a 64 GB graphite. Have a guy in the UK that I'm delivering it to and he'll forward it on since Google don't ship to where I am.
Are they still having stock issues or is it a case of when they say 18-20 November delivery they will actually manage it?

The copy from another device ought to work (the option when setting up a new phone).

Just got my advance replacement in my hand and setting up.
Original 6p has a PINK hue on right hand side of screen head-on.
Unboxed the replacement and it is considerable lighter ? I've given both to a work mate and he thinks the new one is much lighter in weight?? What is going on?
New phone is updating all the apps and Google update, but I think the screen had a pinkish hue on the right side now
Very concerned the new phone is a lot lighter anyone been in this situation??

No apps installed yet. Some can be quite heavy.

Weigh them to see if your going crazy.
The power button has been known to be a little rattley for some people
