It really all depends on what carrier your Nexus 6P is with. Different carriers release the update at different times (even though they should all be relatively very close in a time range). You should get it in the next coming weeks. It shouldn't be too long for you to get it. If you do want to get it now or earlier, I have heard that you can sign up for the Developer Preview now, get that installed on your 6P, then you should get the OTA update for the real Nougat in a day or so. That's what I have heard, I don't know if it's 100% correct. Hope this helps!
Google releases the update, not carriers.
If you sign up for the Developer preview, right now, you will get a notice for the official Nougat release, not the preview.
If you dont want to sign up for the preview, you can simply sideload the official OTA right now, I have posted a link previously in this thread.
Your friends 5x already got their update, because Google has already released factory images for it. That is not the case for the 6P as of yet.
