How are sales of the iPhones going at your Canadian carrier by the way?

pretty good. 6S outselling 6S+ by a huuuuuuge margin but that's probably because the prices in Canada are insane. BUT 6S sales at the carrier I'm at are less than 6 but again, our dollar is so bad the phones are like 500-600 bucks on a 2 year term. Notably higher than this same time last year.

 

[Bboy AJ]

I can't believe the timing of this event. It is terrible.

 

[Pachimari]

Hearing that Galaxy S6 Edge has a crap battery, makes me really consider the iPhone 6S (not the plus), and sacrifice IR blaster, heart beat sensor and Samsung Pay.

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

I can't believe the timing of this event. It is terrible.

The timing is going to be terrible for someone. Can't be helped.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Remember, no one is allowed to buy SHIT until I post I got my order in.

I'll let you get a 5x 16gb but I'm gonna grab a black 6p

 

[Maiar_m]

Timing is perfect for me...but I'm in a country where I won't be able to buy anyways.

 

[Mindwipe]

That's because there is no rebranding. It was a CM theme that changed the branding in the Play Store.

And I like Google Play.

They should update the logo though...

(Also please please do something that enables top level navigation between the stores. Getting from app updates to music is horrible.

Who would spend so much for a phone from a no name company?

 

[hitgirl]

I hope they release phones for sale after the even, would rather watch and decide then have to make the decision for which one.

 

[Bots are better than you]

Maybe those who ask for/expect SD card slots on Nexus devices? ;] *joke*

Preorders are supposed to be available today so we'll see.

 

[SimleuqiR]

Let the hate flow.
I need a 32 gig model.

Who's htc

They make Windows Mobile phones.

It's fine. His ass just gonna have to deal in Korea. It was no different for the Apple event for his ass.

 

[Prototype Viktor]

Who's htc

Some broken girl down the street

 

[reKon]

I care about the large top and bottom bezel size, stupid finger print placement, 16 GB base model, and possibly the price, more than the 2 GB of RAM.

 

[Pifje]

They make Windows Mobile phones.

But the question is, what is Windows Mobile, though?

Nexus 5x (prototype) manhandled in a video

Not an Android Police exclusive:

[Frustrated_me]

Both have 2GB RAM, both have a 1080p display, the M7 starts at 32GB storage, the Nexus most definitely has a better camera and battery life, a fingerprint scanner, usb type c, and the snapdragon 808 is significantly better than the 600 in the M7. I'd say that's a pretty great upgrade over the M7.

big upgrade yes

Thanks guys, I think I'm getting excited

I swear to god if Canada is really excluded I'm going to get really upset.

 

[j-wood]

I kind of want to sell my nexus 6 and get the 6p

No fingerprint sensor?

HTC needs to get with 2015.

 

[Reckoner]

The LG G3 (32GB, 330 EUR) and G4 (430 EUR) are garbage, right?

I would personally prefer the Nexus 6, just for the software alone and dual front facing speakers.

If there's no better phones out this year, then I think I will have to go with Samsung, oddly.

What a great way to punish yourself. Didn't you want a phone with a good battery?

it does have one, that's what that thing is on the bottom.

 

[SimleuqiR]

It was?
Well "no body reads" indeed.

 

[Pachimari]

I'm thinking of going with something cheaper, if none of this years flagship phones does anything for me.

What a great way to punish yourself. Didn't you want a phone with a good battery?

Yeah, I want one with a good battery. But then again, this one have a finger print reader, IR blaster, a very nice screen, a unique front design one of the best cameras on the current market. The only cons I can find about it, is the back of the design which makes it a little uncomfortable in the hand, and the bad battery.

 

[Frustrated_me]

it does have one, that's what that thing is on the bottom.

I stand corrected, welcome to 2015 HTC.

I have an HTC ONE M7, beautiful phone with design still holding up really well. Having said that, I think HTC should have continued to pioneer smartphone design as they did with the M7. Too bad they stayed conservative and didn't disrupt the market. The camera has always been awful on my phone.

Uses mediatek and coats $640. Nope.

What a great way to punish yourself. Didn't you want a phone with a good battery?

I'd love to get one, but I fear that it's a bit too big for me. But maybe I just have to use one for a while and adjust to it. I could get a blue Nexus 6 for 389 and a white one for 399.

I'm really desperate. I love my Nexus 5. It's fast as ever, the user experience itself is pretty good, but the battery is annoying and wireless charging is a bit iffy, due to the cheap build quality. Google fucking up the 5X really threw me off a little. All I can do now is hope that 6.0 does affect the battery life in a positive way and that more manufacturers come out with Qi-enabled phones next year (mainly Sony).

And I'm really sorry to annoy everyone here with my hard on for Qi charging, but it's the feature for me. I hate, hate, hate fumbling around with cables and having the plugs everywhere. No Type-C or Quick Charging would change that for me. I realize that not a lot of people use it here, but wireless charging is to me what IR blasters are to other people. It's just awesome.

Whoops.

Google sent out the Nexus 6P press release in Hungarian.

£500 for 64GB. That is a lot.

 

[CronoShot]

$100 increase from 64GB to 128GB is disappointing, but not terrible prices overall.

Google Translate:

Strong camera with excellent image quality in all conditions
The Nexus 12.3-megapixel backside camera is perfect for outdoor photography, but mostly show your skills in an unfavorable light conditions. The larger 1.55μm pixels can be processed more light, so the camera 6P Nexus prepares detailed and sharp images even in low light conditions. In addition, users of 4K video, and high-frame-rate slow-motion footage can use it. Google Camera application allows you to quickly start the camera, the Google Photos app-pal is easily viewed on photos taken. The Nexus 6P 8MP camera's front panel, and Google's innovative technology, HDR + has so szelfikészítésre suitable.

Availability
The Nexus 6P first time in more than 30 countries such as the United States, Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Japan will also be available as from 29 September through the Google Store. In Hungary, the device is expected to be available at the end of the year.

Canada! Rejoice, Pyro.

The device can be connected to the new C-type USB connector (USB Type C) in any direction of the cable, and also includes a quick charger, which can charge the phone for up to seven hours of usage time even after charging 10 minutes.

Also, that sounds faster than Quick Charge 2.0 to me. Am I wrong?

 

[thuway]

Google with pie in the sky pricing. What the hell.

No carriers this year?

 

[ArchAngel]

649€ for 32GB in Europe? WTF????

You can continue to be an asshole though. That's your mo. I shouldn't expect any less from you.

 

[thuway]

The only way I'd get this is if it were sold on contract through ATT. Also I hope the camera sets a benchmark that hump is huge.

[BoboBrazil]

Ya'll know the Nexus camera is gonna be horrible. Don't even be shocked.

This plus the if it's sold on carriers will determine my purchase.
