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

Ah ok then. I'll look into a battery case or something I guess. Cheers though

Anyone having crashing issues with Google Photos? It was completely fine until the last update or so and now it just crashes the moment I view a photo through it. Going to try cleaning the app cache in a bit.

 

[KnightStalker]

Well I'm enjoying my 6p quite a lot, but i think I made a mistake in trying the N preview, i dont want to lose anything, can you root N or any other way of backing up things to go back to stock. Also is it worth sticking with N if there's a new update soon.

 

[V_R]

The next update is rumoured to be around the 18th which is Google I/O.

 

[unwashed potato!]

Android Pay surely will be released. I can now sign up my cards to android pay, however they all get say they aren't in the android pay scheme just yet.

 

[Fallen god]

I'm heading to Google I/O thinking to stick N on my phone again and just taking a 2nd phone incase anything goes wrong.

Does anyone know the cheapest place to buy one of these?

I'd wait for Google store to do its next offer, £70 off last time, and good warranty support

Members market? One is on there now for £310.

I've just bought one of these. Dropped my G4 and now wifi and Bluetooth don't work on it. I was going to wait til the HTC 10 came down in price but breaking my G4 forced my hand. Should have my new phone on Tuesday

Picked up a brand new one for £280 last week on the HUKD for sale forums (silver, which is the one I wanted).

I really like the phone, I'm very well used to android phones (have had many over the past few years)...but the typical androidesk annoyances are still there. The odd 3 day lags appear, ocassional force close etc etc

My mum now has my old Nexus 5X and boy does the 6p put it to shame. You soon get used to the size (I don't think it's as clumsy as my old Nexus 6 which I hated with a passion), but the screen is simply amazing!! so long as you don't go outside when it's sunny (so thats about 2 days a year in the UK).

Google are still up and down, but more up than down these days. They have made some much needed improvements to their app offerings. Just need to re-focus on certain key areas I think and they will be pretty much perfect.

Hopefully Android 8 will meet my level of expectation, almost with 7 but they are still testing the waters with certain apps. Once they get the bugs ironed out and bring it in tighter with the ecosystem I'll have been totally won over.

3 day lag? Google up and down ?

 

[AndyCr15]

Android 8?

 

[this_is_gav]

Yeah, I don't get any lag either, keeping the phone on for weeks.

I've had the phone reboot a couple of times (only noticed as it mentioned me needing to enter my pin due to restarting), but that's the only stability or lag issue. I suppose it can lag a bit when updating multiple apps, but I think that's the only time.

I should have perhaps said "as new", not "brand new", although it's absolute pristine

only you could take a generally positive thread and turn it into something it isn't (although class A is quite an achievement)

Like I said, I'm a big android/nexus fan so I don't see what the issue is

 

[glenimp617]

Android 8?

assume there will be an android 8 in 2017?

 

[glenimp617]

Relevant.

I live and die by that saying

 

[AndyCr15]

Tbh you just kinda threw me with 'Android 8' not 'Android 8.0', which is my bad. Although, it doesn't really work like that, a new version every year. Well, it does, but they aren't always a new number. It could be 7.1 for example. It would be Android O though.

ah no worries

I have to say, all things considered, nexus 6p is the best phone I've owned (and man I've had a lot of phones)
