I've got a Nexus 6P here, lets get some questions going!

[royalblue365]

Are there any front camera gesture shots like they are on LG(make a fist to capture the picture)?

 

[Sifu]

I guess I will ask a simple one. I'm an owner of last year's Nexus 6. Currently loving that phone. Is there enough of a difference in the 6P to warrant an upgrade? I'm not a big camera person... mostly just taking quick shots here and there... nothing serious. I mostly care about smooth performance as I crunch through apps and games, and good sound quality. I feel I am getting that with the current 6, but wanted to know what the 6P brings to improve performance, if anything noticeable at all.
Thanks.

How is the screen? How much would you rate the screen compared to other flagship like S6 and G4 and Moto X

Hey can you please post the wallpapers when you get a chance? @Russell Holly thanks

On the whole, my impression of the photos is that in good conditions (nice light, daylight) the clarity and detail can't match the Note 5 / S6 but indoors and in low light it is much more noise free. Is that an accurate summation (if a bit oversimplified)

I have a Oneplus one, should i get this or the 32gb nexus 6 from last year for $350? What's the biggest advantages of the 6p over the 6? Thanks!

Sifu -- I'll be curious to see how he responds to your question for with the price dropping on the N6, I am tempted to get the lower priced N6.

How are you finding cellular/data signal reception inside large buildings?

How is the voice call quality?

If you've used headphones with music, how was it?

Any general quirks so far that you've been disappointed with?

Really interested in how quickly it will charge with a Type-c Cable plugged into an aftermarket Qualcomm Quickcharge charger such as the Anker models sold on amazon. Actually an article explaining googles "FAST" charging vs the Qualcom Quickcharge 2.0/3.0 would be appreciated including charge time differences with aftermarket chargers vs Google supplied chargers.

I recommend using an app such as AMPERE to measure the current in mA using both chargers. It will give us a quick example of power draw while charging. (as an example, my NEXUS 5 using an Anker 40W desk charger - non quickcharge- will initially draw about 800mA then taper down during the charging cycle. More complete testing over longer periods of time with multiple chargers and cables including car chargers (quickcharge 2.0 please) will give us consumers an idea of how our current chargers will work with the new NEXUS 6P or if we are beholden to the Google Store to buy extra chargers if we want "Fast" charging

Does the graphite model have the shiny diamond cut edges like the lighter colors? There haven't been very good angles in available pictures of it thus far.

yes, they're smooth and shiny

How would you compare the screen to a Note 5 since we are hearing its the same panel?

6P is thinner and has a much nicer camera.

Nicer than the G4, not quite as nice as the S6 (nothing is, though).

Have you used Android pay yet? If so, how does it work in conjunction with the Nexus 6P's fingerprint scanner?

You may not be privy to this info. Any idea of when Google plans to start shipping beyond the info on Play Store account pages? Hoping for earlier shipping.

Buy this, or wait on Samsung s7?

What's a Samsung S7?

Any advice for car mounts that would work especially well given the phone's size and button layout? Bonus points for ones that work with the CD tray.

Can you take some selfies so we can see the front camera quality? I have a new baby that loves taking pictures with my old lg g2

And can you take a picture of the notification light so we can see brightness and location? (I think it has one!)

Hey Russell, I bought mine from Huawei's website instead of the Google play store because they were out of the 64gb black one do you know if I will be able to get their protection plan? Also what about that $50 credit?
