Better but I wonder why my battery tanks when I'm not on WiFi. Is it the modem?

Has there been an official release date announced for the Pixel C?
I want to know if it would be a good alternative to the iPad Air 2 as I have zero interest in the productivity stuff they are promoting for it.

Finally got my first ever Nexus OTA update
Last time I try waiting and just go back to flashing
Huh went from MDA89D to MDB08L and not MDB08M
is MDB08M a carrier specific one or something?

Playing around with the Apple Music beta.
Is alright design wise. Wish it was more material though. And though I doubt it will happen, wish it had googlecast supports.
Noticing some streaming bugs around beats1. Every so often it just stops.
Also, I cannot access my purchased music. Hopefully thats something that gets fixed.
Anyway I'm glad to see this. Hopefully Apple does this with other media they sell.

Why are people ordering the 6p just recently receiving their phones fast? I've been waiting since the 23rd of last month... I ordered through Huawei's store...
Do customers from google play store get top priority?
Wow...
This is unbelievable. I think I'm done with Nexus and google as a whole.

"Qualcomm already unveiled Sense ID, its ultrasonic fingerprint authentication tech, earlier this year. But today we got to see it in action on a few prototypes. Unlike capacitive fingerprint reading, which is what everyone is using on smartphones these days, Sense ID won't be affected by debris or sweat on your fingers. And the ultrasonic sensors can also be embedded in metal, glass and other surfaces, which means they can be placed just about anywhere on your phone, even right on the side. Sense ID appeared to work just as fast as Apple's latest Touch ID implementation, and a bit of dirt on a Qualcomm reps fingers didn't slow it down at all."
This is much better than the bullshit readers on the back that everyone is in love with right now.

Doesn't look that bad to me.
Gaf, help me please. I'm able to get a free phone through work to replace my galaxy S6 and 6P would be a no brainer if it was available but its not! options im considering are
iPhone 6s/6s+
Nexus 5X
Xperia Z5/Z5c
Note 5/S6 Edge+
i was not even thinking about an iPhone but after trying out the 6s+ i was impressed. Was blazing fast, even compared to my s6 and just typing on that screen was amazing, does apple use some different tech to make the screen feel different? My only concern is moving back to iOS since i use google services quite a bit, especially play music
Nexus 5X could be a bit of a step down from the S6 and have not heard great things about the Z5. Which leaves the Note 5/S6 Edge+....

I'd definitely get the iPhone out of those phones, especially if your work is paying for the phone.
The 5X is a nice phone but it can't compete with any of those devices if cost doesn't matter and it'd be a downgrade on everything except the OS from your S6. I'd pretty much avoid Samsung's crap because you'll be lucky to get 1-2 software updates and if you do they'll take forever not to mention that TouchWiz bloat. Don't know much about the Xperia, but given Sony's past quality control issues with their phones I'd just avoid them entirely, especially when they mentioned not long ago they'd pull the plug on their phones if they continued to not sell well.

That's a hardware issue not an OS issue so it really isn't fair to be blaming"Buggy o'l Android".

Gonna be a beast. Hope to see the S7 with it soon. I'm gonna return the 6P I got today. Great phone, but I just don't need the upgrade right now from my OPO.

Looks like a mild annoyance at most. Although the annoyance is going to be multiplied by the wait for the patch.

Damn nice phone eh? Love the build quality in it and the OS was pretty smooth in the little time I used it. Hope they get Huawei again next year.

Yes! It's so good. On top of that this my first phablet so it's a huge upgrade and I love it so far. I didn't think I could adjust but I'm impressed. It's so beautiful. Now just waiting for my apps to install

This Nexus 6P is so much nicer than the Nexus 6. It feels great. Although, because of the curve, the 6 is easier to type one handed. The 6P feels unstable. 6P is like an iPhone 5S. That's what it feels like.
Man, the Nexus 6 is just a fascinating phone. It's a big ass phone that doesn't gaf about being big. There's no elegance or refinement to it. It's a big phone and that's it.

My replacement 6P arrives sometime today. I can't wait to use that beauty again. I swear if Google ships a phone with problems...

Nope. I wish mine did that actually, who the fuck watches video in vertical mode.
If auto rotate is turned off YouTube will go horizontal when I click full screen and rotate if I flip it upside down (but never go into vertical unless I exit full screen).
I hate auto rotate so it's nice being able to watch videos in landscape without flipping that switch.

HTC heard you all like the Nexus 6P so much.
Initial impression ... fast! We'll see how it works out long term.makes everything better man. For once it's a major android update with no real downside.
Of course I just jinxed it, I'm expecting another post from you about how it bricked your tablet/ruined its battery life

Amazing. HTC finally did it. They made a phone without the stupid HTC bar at the bottom. Except now it's at the top taking up all that space.

It's like with the Android silver rumours, the demise of the Nexus line with an actual Google phone always seems to come around but never seems to materialise.
This is a great article about how bad Apple have become with design in terms of user interaction, I think it goes perfectly with what I said a few weeks back about 3D touch with the overcomplicating of iOS.

So... While I'm in love with this phone... I believe I might have a bad lemon or maybe I'm not giving it time...
My battery life seems to just die. It was showing me on 98% that I have 2 hrs of time left to use it. I think that's super outrageous?

Sure sounds like a wakelock, is the phone warm/hot? Does the battery view shows any apps with high drain?
I had a drain on my old N5 with the wlan search from the location services, check/disable that option, if that is the problems' root.
Two different tempered glass screen protectors, running my thumb along it, and my wife's laser sharp vision confirms it: my nexus 6P's lower right corner of the screen is slanted upwards and raised up. This admittedly makes me feel a little bummed out but it's still a 4.5/5 phone, minus the gigantic size for my tiny hands.
