Just switched to Nexus 6p from Galaxy 4. The price compared to other newer phones win me over. I'm constantly on my phone in some fashion, so it's nice to have a stylish, reliable phone. I love the camera, apps and battery life but absolutely HATE that is not compatible with my fitbit. With the fitness craze, I certainly hope with the frequent system updates this is resolved. Love the
fingerprint security and phone screen resolution. Just a week with the phone and no regrets.

Does anyone know if they have figured out the exposure settings when using the nexus 6p camera in manual mode. Sounds like all other manual settings work except +/- exposure settings. Thx

I bought Nexus 6P yesterday (21/03) in India from Flipkart and as soon as I unboxed and switched it ON, I was able to recognize the yellow tint display.
The yellow tint is so prominent that you simply can’t ignore it and have to ask for a Return.
Also, the display will show pink, green and blue hues as soon as you reach a viewing angle of >145°
By the way, I own a Samsung Galaxy S2 and an LG G Flex which are AMOLED AND POLED respectively.
When I compare the colors especially whites with these displays, Nexus 6P looks yellow as if it was not at all designed to show whites.
I have read the reviews about this issue and sad to say that even after 4 months of launch, the problem still persists in these phone's displays.
I would simply advice everyone to go with Moto X Style which is a much better option over 6P.
I have asked for a refund and would go with Moto X Style.
Everything else about 6P is amazing which doesn’t matter when the main part of the phone sucks!!

I like the phone so far but I use a lot the video & camera, my concern is I can't take pictures while making a video like the Samsung note III, (my prior phone) I have heard the Google camera will be updating for this option, as well as that option already exist in the phone.....if is there already, someone knows how to get to it?

But tha fact that I got scaratched on my screen wothout really uaing it (not even once brougjt it at work) then it is really some problem form the phone itself. I don't know why it hapended I don't even have any idea. I also wonder if they're going to chamge it for me.

AnonD-484085, 04 Jan 2016Hi there, I am contemplating on getting the Nexus 6P, howev... moreNexus 6P has the best battery life of all the phones i have used till now, this includes, Iphone6, S6 edge and Note Edge. At the end of the day (6 am to 12am) the phone still have more than 10% reminaing. I use my phone a lot, with emails, whatsapp and twitter. The phone gives you a screen on time of 5+ hours. I simply can say there is no better phone comparing the 3000 mAh, nexus 6P has 3450 mAh.

I was between the 6p and the Note5. In the end I went with the Note mainly due to the ram. I mean I get it that Google wanted a SD cpu to keep community happy to built roms easier, and I wouldn't mind the lower performance in comparison with the Exynos SoC, but why have "only" 3GB of ram? I came from the S3 that I was using for 3.5 years (since launch) and the main reason I changed it was the only 1gb of ram, from that I understood that more than raw cpu power what matters most, if you plan to keep your device, is the amount of ram.

Hi there, I am contemplating on getting the Nexus 6P, however I am unsure on the battery life as that is my main concern. I am currently using a Samsung Galaxy Note 3, and was looking at iPhone 6S Plus or the Nexus 6P. Battery life would definitely be better on the iPhone 6S Plus compared to the Nexus 6P, but I was wondering if anyone can advise me on the battery life capability for the Nexus 6P? For instance, light usage of Whats App, Facebook, Twitter and leaving the phone idle while at work, how long roughly can the battery lasts? Anyone? Of course the answer to stress-free battery headache is the iPhone 6S Plus, but I do not think the price justifies the value of it. Ridiculously expensive.

... moreI have to disagree with your comment about battery and heating issue.
1st. The phone battery is not exceptional but its definitely mediocre. Ive been using this for a month now and I can say that the battery is good(for me, who is a mid to heavy user). One good thing about this is that, it has a fast charging capability. And in my rvery day routine, as I wake up in the morning, I plug it in, then after having bf, taken a bath and getting dressed up,my phone is fully charged and that's only about 60 to 90mins.
As for the heating issue, its true that it gets warm most of the time, but know that warm and hot are 2 different words. I've been using smartphones and I think it's just expected for one to get warm when being used for a long time. .

Second Nexus 6P problem is the heating issues which the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chipset is responsible for when playing extreme high end games.
The Nexus 6P large 5.7 inch display is an AMOLED capacitive touchscreen but not a Super AMOLED which is found on the Samsung. Comparison wise the Super AMOLED consumes less power which can save the battery juice a lot and more importantly it have better viewing angles than a standard AMOLED, but sadly its ain’t any with Nexus 6P.

And finally the last Huawei Nexus 6P problem is that if you account the radiation factor it is also one of the highest radiation level smartphone. To be exact the Nexus 6P SAR Value is 1.23 W/Kg under simultaneous transmission of all radio frequencies.
