So much for a pure android experience from Google.. All nexus and pixel devices have problems.. If you want pure android then the best way is to go NOKIA!!!

    boot loop is no related to google or to any other manufacture if u want to blame some one is qualcomm for the faulty parts they are the ones responsible for overheating issues and this related issue sd808 and sd810 ... they preform ok similar to an 800 processor on a phone save for bootloop.
    I say similar because even playing on a 2k screen gaming is ok in a level close to adreno 330 but emulators related the 2k taxes a lot for example on adbz or naruto game let alone gow

      No different to Apple then. I guess the only thing to do is stop accepting updates after a while.

        Bebe Recharge your phone might not bootloop but it overheats when shooting 4k so we come down to SD810 yet again.

          VoloKin Project, 25 Jul 2017The main reason behind those bootloops are the poor SD808 a... moreXperia Z5 has SD810, the same SoC as the Nexus 6P, yet I haven't heard any boot loop problems from that device. Your point is?

            Well, what to say then? That in a way it's better, but in the other it's worst.

                    My Nexus 5 was starting to randomly shut down and not restart. Guess Nexus phones are good for 2-3 years then they really become obsolete. It's like goodle purposely made the phone unworkable.

                          The same developer also created the fix for Nexus 5X and it is working fine.

                            Is there any fix to enable VoLTE on it too?

                                  Quite similar to the LG G4 Ilapo fix, it disables the big cores to prevent the bootloop, but the device will go slower in intense apps - games.

                                    Huawei quality is just like this, drop the phone and battery flexyble broke. Btw this is 2nd times nexus not provide solution, 1st app optimizing every boot after lollipop update.

                                        Bootloop the nightmare scenario of all mobilephones, once a company starts putting out devices with these issues I stop buy from them.
