I have a Pixel 4XL and I'm loving it! The battery life has been just fine for me, although I confess the phone spends a lot of time on my Pixel Stand at home or in the office. I did a battery test one day and got 16 hours out of it before it reached 5%, so that's pretty decent to me. The display...

I have a Pixel 4XL, and the battery life issues the reviews raised concerned me, but I did a test and determined it was fine for my use case, since I had a charge from 7:45 am to 11:45 pm, and my phone was at 5% at that time. That seems more than reasonable to me, since I charge it at night...

Still waiting here in Lynchburg, VA

No OTA Andriod N Developer Preview 5 for my Nexus 6P yet, and it's enrolled in the Android N beta program. It's never taken this long in the past; it's usually released on the same day as the downloadable files. Not a big deal personally, but it's an observation I thought I'd share to see if...

I have a Nexus 6P with 128 GB of storage, and if this rumor holds, the good news is that I won't be tempted to upgrade from it. The only differences I can determine between my current phone and the "HTC Nexus Marlin" are potentially a faster processor and 1 GB more of RAM, a smaller screen...

I'm into my 2nd week with the Nexus 6P over the Note 5, and I continue to be impressed. I received the February 2016 security update OTA nine days after the factory images were released. That's the timeliness I sought for my updates. Also, battery life is absolutely phenomenal! For two...

It has been a week since I made the switch from the Note 5 to the Nexus 6P, and I can add to the timely updates, fast performance and clean UI the additional pluses of better battery life, a great fingerprint scanner, and MUCH faster charging using Google USB Type-C chargers and cables. Given...

Re: Torn between keeping my Note 5 or getting the Nexus 6p...any thoughts from those who've made the I haven't had it long enough to ascertain whether or not these are problem areas. I've successfully paired my Plantronics Bluetooth earpiece and the Bluetooth receiver in my wife's Nissan...

The nano SIM card from Verizon worked just fine in the Nexus 6P. I was up and running on the Verizon network almost immediately. I requested a new nano SIM for the Note 5 from Verizon, and I'll stick it in the phone so a buyer can activate it on the Verizon network. I also paid off the balance...

Re: Torn between keeping my Note 5 or getting the Nexus 6p...any thoughts from those who've made the I just made the switch this week. I was frustrated with the slow pace of updates - my Verizon Note 5 was still on the November security update with the January update already out on the street...

Thanks for the quick reply! If I take out the nano SIM card in my Note 5 to use it with the Nexus 6P, will I have to get a new one from Verizon before I can sell the phone? The conditions say that the device must be ready for activation. Also, I was hoping to use the proceeds from the sale to...

If you don't mind my asking, how did you sell yours? I'm mulling over the possibility of selling my Verizon Note 5 and purchasing the Nexus 6P while it's on sale at $50 off. I was planning to list the Note 5 on eBay.

I'm frustrated with the glacial pace of security updates for my Verizon Galaxy Note 5 - the January 2016 security update is out, but my phone is still on the 11-1-2015 update. In addition, there is no Marshmallow on the horizon. I am tempted to purchase a Nexus 6P and sell the Note 5, but I'm...

Great reviews, pure Android with timely updates, and a big screen - those are the selling points for me when it comes to the Nexus 6P!
