Squabbling over a few hundred bucks.

I would take graphite if I got one

 

[Vyse The Legend]

So which color looks like the best in your opinion? Graphite look sweet.

Black is the only correct answer. The rest are ugly as shit.

For me, if the 5X is only 2gb in all variants, then it is a complete no-go. The battery size is already a major compromise, so I'm not willing to make a second one.

If the 6P comes in at $500 starting, then I'll definitely consider it. Otherwise, not so much.

 

[Bboy AJ]

Which OEM is that

Keyboard autocorrecting Sony to Don't is brilliant.

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

All of you agree that Graphite looks fantastic; you all have great taste confirmed.

 

[Admodieus]

Can't wait for graphite to sell out instantly on pre-order day, and then I have to make a choice between one of those other colors and waiting for stock to replenish

That's because it hides the ugly ass camera bar

 

[Baroquemantic]

So which color looks like the best in your opinion? Graphite look sweet.

Graphite all day, urry day. Anything dark will always be my number one choice. Though I have no problem getting something more colorful as long as the front is black.

 

[Bboy AJ]

White is my choice because of that gloss black bar. It pops. But most importantly

better than notably worse battery /samsung

funny how its noticeably worse in the placebo effect reviews but in the ones where they measure its the same or better.

it's almost as if they expect it to be worse because the mAh is smaller.

I'll take people's actual real world impressions over stupid benchmarks any time.

Artem confirmed that the 6P has a 3,450mAh battery. I'm starting to reconsider my 5X purchase...

LG Nexus is a joke unless it's under $300 with those specs.

 

[The Faceless Master]

Stock android also has bloated google apps and services.

If it has minimal google apps installed than I take it back, but normally that's not the case.

i've been saying that forever but people act like just because Google made it, it isn't bloat.

 

[Jzero]

That's because it isn't. Bloatware is shit no one wants. Google apps are usually useful and if they're not you can either delete them or disable them.

The only app I consider bloatware is their email app.

Perfect for me.

Get a chrome case and then it turns into

Well I use basically all google apps, so I certainly don't consider it bloat.

There's a ton of Google shit I don't use but I am forced to keep on my phone. How is that not bloat?

 

[Quasar]

There's a ton of Google shit I don't use but I am forced to keep on my phone. How is that not bloat?

Well I consider bloat stuff above and beyond OS function defaults. So basically third party junk. I would not consider say Powershell on Windows bloat, even if I didn't use it.

If you think Google apps are bloat you've obviously never had real bloat.

And just because you don't use it doesn't mean a fuckload of people don't use it either.

 

[Jazzy Network]

I've had real bloat. If it sits there unused, its bloat.

I'm planning to buy an Android tablet for my mother, is there a Nexus tablet coming? If none, what is better Nexus 7 or Nexus 9?

All this talk of GApps being bloat...look into the true face of evil.

So far everything about it sounds like a 2015 flagship other than the question mark of ram.

Don't like the size

6P is starting to grow on me as well.
Leaked pics: damn that hump on the back is ugly what were they thinking?

Me currently: man that black bar gives the phone such a unique look.

There's no hump at all? I think this angle is playing tricks on me. Either way these higher quality pics make the phone look even better.

Gotdamn this phone looks good.

 

[brotkasten]

The P is looking better, but it's still not really interesting. Maybe it's the first Nexus with consistently good battery life, who knows.

Nexus 6 has good battery life on M3.

People claim the same about the Nexus 5. Lets wait and see what the final version brings.

Nexus 7 is stil going strong ✌

There's still a hump, but yeah, much less than we thought. It has also grown on me. Although I don't know which of the three colors I would choose. All look very good to me.

Black!

 

[DagsJT]

6P is too large for me,especially coming from a Z3 Compact. I don't play games or watch videos so huge phones aren't great for me.

The 6P does look great though, but I'm probably getting a 5X.

Who's leaking all this stuff anyway? They're going to get fired as fuck if they get caught.

I wish we received zero leaks but this stuff is usually controlled. It always ruins the surprise.

The marketing team at google! Most of these leaks are controlled to create hype. But we love it!

How big are the chances for the small P being within the 400-450 range?

 

[brotkasten]

I think you'll have to put more than 450 on he table for a small P.

Not to mention that the Euro price is going to be higher anyway.

Well some of it seems to be coming from training materials. But these days even apple has massive leaks.

I hope not. Motorola screwed us with the Style and the Play price, both 100€ more than the direct conversion. I would understand an increase of ~50€, but more than that it's too much.

Everything about 6P looks great EXCEPT 810

fuck

The 810 was blown out of proportion. While it may get hot on some phones, both the Z5 and the OPT have it without getting the heat problems.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

The 810 was blown out of proportion. While it may get hot on some phones, both the Z5 and the OPT have it without getting the heat problems.

That is accomplished by keeping it heavily throttled so it never gets hot to begin with

 

[Knight77]

The N6P looks really interesting but its really too big for me. Now I've got a Moto X 2015 (not the new Style or Play) and its really on the limit for me: I want to be able to use the phone with one hand and be able to keep it in my pocket without many problems.
The N5 doesn't look a worth upgrade from my Moto X, in particular by the point of view of the materials, so I got really interested about the Nextbit Robin

A part the specs that looks good and quite updated the things that catch my attentions are the design, the aluminum body, the attention they are giving to the camera, the fingerprint reader on the side,the stereo front speaker, the fact that they guarantee updates in decent time (they're already working on Android M) and last but not least the 100Gb on cloud and how the phone use it.

Comes already with unlocked bootloader and you're free to flash any rom you want, in case of troubles you won't lose your warranty.

Price? 349$ + VAT & Shipping.

Not bad at all.

I already own one of those. No bueno.
