Got update this afternoon. So pattern is developing... I get it on the 10th of the month.

This is the biggest issue I have with the phone too. The buttons are placed where a person would normally hold the phone. Compare that with the Iphone 6S, the buttons are placed much higher and away from where fingers hold the phone. A big design mistake.

Big problem with this phone (and I like it too): I think it was a mistake locating the volume and power buttons where they are. That spot on the side of the phone is where my thumb would tend to be (or fingers if held it on my left hand). I imagine this is the same for most people. Bad mistake...

Re: Android 6.0.1 Rolling Out Starting Today I have this same build and I'm on Verizon. Are there different builds depending on your carrier? Just curious.

I setup my 6P without a SIM. It took me a week to transfer all files from previous phone (a Blackberry!), download all the apps I would need, and setup the phone. It was like moving from one house to another. I won't be doing it for a awhile.

Re: Android 6.0.1 Rolling Out Starting Today The Update just installed on mine. I see no problems so far. Minutes later, I got notification that a dozen apps needed updates including Facebook, Google Maps, FB Messenger, NFL Mobile, Google Camera, Firefox browsser, Uber, ColorNote.

Re: Confused on Locked vs Unlocked bootloader I'm getting my 6.0.1 update tight now as I type. So much for waiting.....

My 6P is updating as I type. That's what I call service! Let's see that with a Verizon branded phone, ha!

I think they delayed you intentionally cause you were a pain in the arse to them. Look at me, I ordered 10/30. They said it will ship 11/20. Now it will be here tomorrow.

128GB Graphite Ordered 10/30 Original arrival window: 11/18 - 11/20 New arrival window: 11/06/2015 Tomorrow! Got the email today that it's on its way!!! [Note the original ship date]

At around 10:30 PM Eastern tonite, I just happen to check the G Store and noticed that they were able to accept orders for certain 6Ps. So I placed an order for a black 128GB unit. Says delivery is Nov. 20.

I just happen to check the Google store and lo & behold they were accepting orders for a black 128GB one. SO I placed my order. Delivery says by Nov 20 though.

Hello. I'm going to be a new Android user for the 1st time. I'm coming from BlackBerry whose OS, BB10 has become absolutely useless. Therefore I have a Nexus 6P on order. But what exactly is Google hangout? Is it a chatting app? Is it a universal inbox for all manners of communication including...

The problem I have with the Blackberry Slider is that: it is still tied to a carrier -- delays any Android updates it is not carrier independent --- I can't take the phone with me if I want to move from Verizon to AT&T and it is still running Lollipop 5.1.1 -- when will it update to 6.0?

Does anyone know of any waterproof casing for this phone? Yes, I've seen the "sandwich bag" type cases and they work, but does anyone know of a semi hardshell case like the lifeproof type?
