Oh, screen literally off, my bad. I know the Nexus 6 has the extra voice processor for that but for some reason j thought people were referring to the phone just being locked. That said, this isn't really a deal breaking feature for probably 98% of the users out there. I love the concept of...

What is with this misconception that the Nexus 6 is the only phone that can do "OK Google" from the lock screen? I'm using the Note 4 right now and can do that as well. Here's a screenshot of the settings page for anyone that doubts me. Posted via the Android Central App

Need isn't the point. The point is that two phones with identical screen resolutions and identical battery sizes offer drastically different battery life. Read my previous posts on this forum - I was as gung-ho Nexus 6 as they come, but I find it very hard to excuse Google for roughly half the...

The battery life issues caused me to cancel my hard fought Play Store order and just stick with the Note 4 for now. I hate Touchwiz and the bloat, but it's liveable after the mass amount of tweaking I've done and the battery is really awesome. That said, I don't know what's worse... The Nexus...

I haven't used the Nexus 6 yet, but for me the 6 Plus was the best battery life I've ever gotten from a smart phone. Literally ever. 2nd place goes to the Note 4 and here are some screen shots for you. Posted via the Android Central App

Don't want to hijack, but I have to comment on this. I tested a 6 Plus for 14 days and it easily had the best battery life I've ever gotten out of a smart phone. Ever. 24-30 hours on battery with 8+ usage hours between charges consistently. Posted via the Android Central App

I'm with T-Mobile right now and they never stock the larger storage space version of phones in stores. If it is a super popular phone they may do it for the first week or two, but even that seems rare. Like with the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus - my local stores only stock the 16GB and you have to order...

I believe the camera hardware is the same as the S5, so whatever score the S5 got should be applied to the Note 4 as well. I think... Posted via the Android Central App

With Lollipop they are handling disk partitioning differently. Bloat on your typical Android phone is installed on the system partition, because the phone is pre-branded to a carrier, as part of the core OS and can't be removed as a result. With the Nexus 6 the phone is open to all carriers and...

Re: T-mobile has them on the floor I would like a screen comparison from a visibility sense between the Note 4 and the Nexus 6. What I mean is, open the same web page in Chrome on both phones and see which one shows more content. The screen size difference should account for a few lines, but in...

No, YOU are a sore spot for every future Nexus owner on this forum. You show up out of nowhere once reviews are posted and all you can do is ignore every single positive comment made in every review and focus on the minority that talk about negatives. People provide proof against the things you...

It is, but the Nexus 6 also has a low power voice processor that is listening at all times for the "OK Goole" hot word, which is why you can use it from the lock screen with the phone off. This review talks about it on this page...

The phone has a voice processor that is used for nothing more than listening for "OK Google" when the phone is off, so yeah, pretty big oversight.

That's the video I was referring to. Thanks for doing what I was too lazy to do and linking it.

I don't think there has ever been a smooth Nexus launch. Outside of that, Google never gave a concrete launch date, T-Mobile simply claimed they would have it on the 12th while nobody else was saying a thing. If anything, I would be more mad at T-Mobile for claiming something before they knew it...
