    Former Blackberry User with Nexus 6P - several questions

    Folio Case with sleep mode function causes phone too long to wake up

    I just bought a leather folio case that has a sleep mode function. I am finding the lag too long when I open the cover to use the phone. Without the case there is no discernible lag from off or sleep mode to on. Is there an option to disable the sleep mode function? I have set the sleep time...
