Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
Screen brightness can't be fixed at all unless Motorola or Google is purposely keeping it at where it is but I doubt that. As far as camera yes it could but I doubt enough that it matters if your used to the note 4 or a Sony phone. It will be better then a nexus 5 camera

Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
I actually think the Nexus 6 looks better in some of those pictures. I'm not a big camera guy and just go by what I see and like. The Nexus 6 pictures look more colorful and I like that better. The indoor pictures I have to give the Note 4 the edge, but not by much.
I'm not seeing the big difference enough in those pictures and I think I'll be very satisfied with the camera on the Nexus 6.

Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
Yeah those comparison shots are pretty good. Some are better on the note 4, some are better on the nexus 6. Like someone said, your mileage will vary and quality is subjective. I think it looks sufficient enough for my uses.
Low light shots have always been a crap shoot on smartphones with some exceptions.

Re: It's a typical Nexus phone, full of compromises
Our Google Nexus 6 battery life test is complete, phablet lags behind the Note 4
For the most part.. You are in search of a Unicorn... Big Foot or Lochness.... Something that just doesn't exist.. There is no perfect phone.... You guys with the negativity about the Nexus 6 are just making assumptions.... I have not said once the Nexus 6 is the best phone on the market and is better than this or that.... Because I don't know... My interpretation of the reviews I've read have been mostly positive... Most seem to think it's a really good phone with some tweaks needed here or there...
On paper it packs all the top available hardware (For November 2014).. Build quality is almost unanimous in that it's very very good.... Battery life for the most part is rated as excellent and on par with most comparable devices.... and yet it's still cheaper than most flagships... Just not dramatically cheaper as the past two years.. It's kind of gone back to how it was before the Nexus 4 pricing wise....
Only mistake I think Google made was not having something smaller.. a 5 or 5.2 inch device at say $500... but I guess that is where the Moto X pure edition falls in place... They just made a very giant leap from 4.95 to 5.96 and $350 to $650 that I think it shocked a lot of people.....
and I've never made fun of Touchwiz.. I didn't like it and rooted/removed it from my GS3 but it wasn't horrible... It was okay... Nothing wrong with it at all... Samsung like most OEM's are just trying to tell their devices apart from others.... I didn't use the majority if any of the Samsung added bloat/apps... With a so called pure android experience and sticking to the Google made android eco system I can more seamlessly switch from Samsung to HTC to Nexus to LG vs having to start over in another eco system...

Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
We obviously have note 4 trolls in the nexus 6 forum as I believe the photographs speak for themselves and yes some pics do look better on the note 4 especially the low light photo but many look better on the nexus 6. If anyone is disappointed with these photos then no smart phone on the market is going to please them including the one on the note 4.
Coming from a Note 2, I am very excited about the camera on the nexus 6!

Re: It's a typical Nexus phone, full of compromises
I have question for all of the negative commenters in this thread.
Does any of the following apply to you:
Do you already own a Nexus 6?
Do you work for a Android blog site that has had access to the phone for the past to weeks?
Are you feeble minded to enough to base an opinion, sight unseen, on the either the minority or majority of sites review?
If any of the above criteria applies, then by all means continue to whine and complain about something you cannot change.
However, if none of this is applicable to you, may I suggest that you wait and see for yourself or shut your pie holes as you are basing your complaints on nothing but speculation.

Re: It's a typical Nexus phone, full of compromises
If these tests/reviews were for almost any other phone, say the upcoming S6, it'd get blasted almost universally. It's a Nexus, though, so mediocrity is okay as long as it's straight from Google. Fastest updates? Belongs to the Moto X. Best in class hardware? Nope. They threw some shiny new animations and redesigned core apps/UI elements and called it a day. Then to top it off, they raised the price and made last year's train wreck launch look passable by being worse this year. But as long as its from Google, it's no issue.

Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
Yeah and I am just going to stop replying to them now.. If you go from one post to the next you'll notice it's pretty much the same 3 people pushing their assumptions...
Me personally I don't know.. I've played with the Note 4 and it's a really nice phone.... You either love Touchwiz or you don't... I personally would never use the S pen or multiscreen... the rest of the added functions of Touchwiz are mostly Meh to me and just Gimmicky for the most part... But I also understand how it can be useful for certain people...
As far as the Nexus 6 goes.. I have not really read a review that makes me go "WHOA!!!! Let me think about this." they all seem to be very positive overall and most of the battery test put it on par with the other devices in it's class... Not the best but not the worst either... I can promise you day one I am going to say "Man this sucker is just big." and it will take some time to adjust and get use to it...

Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
I have never seen anyone spend so much time in a phone forum promoting a different phone. The reviewer does a good job pointing out which are better on which phone and why. The pics in brighter light are more washed out on note 4 and the one in low light the note 4 is better. What is interesting is the greater detail in almost every photo on the nexus 6 with 13 Megapixels. As is, I would give the nexus 6 the edge in daylight outdoor shots and the note 4 the edge in indoor shots but anyone trying to make an argument from these photos that the nexus 6 camera would be disappointed is clueless. I have better things to do than argue with obvious trolls.

Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
The other problem with comparing these pictures is you were not there to see the real thing... So you don't know how they truly compare to what was actually there.. and even then you are still talking about taste.. I think the pictures are pretty close for the most part.. I'd probably give the Note 4 a slight edge overall but it's not such a large gap that I would bash the 6's phone as totally unusable and make it a deciding factor...
It's going to hold it's own for what I am going to use it for... Wouldn't use it if someone hired me to photo their wedding or do studio quality family photo's for Christmas cards or major announcements.... But for pictures of my kids playing on the swings, swimming in the pool or doing stupid things with the dogs in the back yard to post to Facebook for Grandma and Grandpa to "Like" and comment on................... It'll do......

Re: It's a typical Nexus phone, full of compromises
I agree with you about the launch, that always seems bad. I don't think the S6 would get blasted like you're referring to. It would be just like it is now, with a lot of people liking the phone and a few who don't. I get a lot of phones, six and counting so far this year ( Note 3, M8 both regular and developer, S5, G3, OnePlus and Iphone 6 Plus). There are always things people don't like.
I remember on the S5 forum, I and a few others talked about how we didn't like the way the S5 lagged. Some people swore up and down that their phone had no lag whatsoever. People just see things differently and have different opinions and that's cool.
I guess I'm just easy to please, because I really like Android Lollipop, it looks like they put a lot into it. After using it on my Nexus 9, this is the first time I've ever thought selling my Ipad, and using an Android device as my primary Tablet. I just wish the LTE model was available now.

Re: It's a typical Nexus phone, full of compromises
If I'm going to pay for a flagship device, I'm not going to be okay with a camera that focuses in half the time as other cameras and lags when it processes HDR photos. I'm not going to be okay with an AMOLED panel that isn't nearly as efficient as others and has a really low brightness. I'm not going to be okay with another lackluster battery when they could do so much better. Is the battery good enough for most? Sure. Is it as good as other devices with similar sized batteries? No.
If others, such as yourselves, don't care about these things because you won't notice them, that's awesome. Just don't pretend they're not there. And also don't pretend this phone is some huge departure from the Nexus 5/Moto X. We've got the same software already and hardware can be tested. So no, I really don't need to use this device to be able to see if these particular things are good or bad.

Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
I am far from a photography buff. I just want to take simple pics that look good. From what I have seen of the pics that have been posted taken by the Nexus 6 I will be more than happy. Will there be some pics that look bad, I am sure there will be. But overall it looks to be great for my purposes. If I wanted pictures with extreme quality I would just buy a camera made for that purpose. This is still a phone.... Or as someone put it... Maybe I am just easy to please.

Re: It's a typical Nexus phone, full of compromises
When it comes to movies and phones, I will read the reviews.
A review is not going to keep me from seeing or not seeing a movie or buying or not buying a phone.
If I want to see a movie or buy a phone, I will.
To each their own.
If we were all the same, it would be a really boring world.

Re: Anybody else disappointed with screen battery life and camera ?
I might have a preference to the note 4 but it's because of the superior camera based off Alnost every review of both phones and samples. Your obviously slanted to the nexus 6.... I would of gotten the nexus 6 if the camera was better since I like the bigger screen
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
Lol.... I don't trust computer world and almost every other review says the nexus 6 camera is OK.... Even the verge praises the note 4 more and even did an whole article about the pics with a note 4 and it disproves the "comparison" I'm not trolling Im just taking review pics from multiple sources and saying it's an OK camera....

Thus proving the point of there is no pleasing some people.... Keep searching for that Unicorn or Lochness......
You'll have a rebuttal to anything anyone says that isn't on point for your opinion and assumptions on a device you have zero hands on experience with... I've continually said I don't know when it comes to the Nexus 6... I've played with a Note 4 and Note 3 and they are great devices... You guys who are negative on it are hand picking negative remarks from hand picked reviews and preaching them as the law of the land.... I'm taking the nick picking and comparing it to the rave reviews and figuring it's somewhere in the middle...
