Google Nexus 6 Preorder Info & Reviews

[infinity12402]

There's like 20 reviews out, and out of those ars and anand have had the only really negative thing to say. Maybe there were about 2 or 3 other mixed reviews. Every other review has been mostly or all positive. Idk why everyone is flipping out. Considering they haven't even tried the phone for themselves.

I ordered my N6 Midnight Blue 64 from Moto's site on Nov 6, and it gave me an est delivery date of Nov 19, and they charged my card on Nov 7 (not just pending, but an actual charge). I haven't received a shipping notice yet. Has anybody else who ordered from Moto received a shipping notice?

"There’s also a performance advantage to this clean install of Android. Whereas the Note 4 (running Samsung’s heavily modified Android) would sometimes freeze and stutter, the Nexus 6 felt silky and fast. Of course, the hardware doesn’t hurt: With a quad-core, 2.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and 3GB of RAM inside, the Nexus 6 is one of the quickest phones I’ve ever used."

Because using reviews is much better ordering it and if not liking it returning it. It's a hassle for some people specially people living in the middle of no where which requires you to go to a ups store or buying all the packaging and doing it yourself and paying a fee to get ups pick it up unless your happening to get a package lol .

Ok. And again. There's only been 2 slightly negative reviews. And you could still go to a store and try it.

The reviews on software I am fine with. Hardware like screen brightness and color accuracy and the camera is where I have the issue but initially was going to pass on it might reconsider and get one because I want the software now lol. Camera is better then the nexus 5 for sure and I'm fine with that right now and screen brightness and color I could live with specially since I have with the Samsung Galaxy s2, s3 and s4

Geez.. some people must be mountain men and live in an area that wouldn't even get good enough cell service to justify owning a smart phone to start with..... I've lived kind of out in the sticks before but I had to come into town and civilization daily to work and do my grocery shopping.... Most online retailers will send you a return shipping label and just keep the original shipping box and you maybe spend $2 - 3 on some good packaging tape to close it back up and attach the new label..... then you just drop it off at a UPS or FedEx store and walk out....

Those are different then the warehouse they deliver packages. The ups store or a FedEx store is different. They generally sell packaging , mail boxes and paying for shipping or receive packages as well. FedEx stores I guess the same.

Checked the Play Store for the device, it nows reads:

"This device is not for sale at this time".

Hmm, I just looked and still says 'We are out of inventory. Please check back soon.'? I clicked on all 4 combinations of color/storage.

The white 64GB version was showing as "not for sale" for a while - perhaps 30 minutes. During that period the whole Play Store was screwy. I was trying to check my order status but the My Orders page would not load. The store still seems a bit wonky but functioning better. Something was up.

I noticed that too. The pages did not want to load.

Holy mixed reviews batman

I have watched and read a lot of reviews. And everyone is different, it's the best. It's the worse. It's not worth it. It's Ect. Don't think I have seen so many different reviews before. Anyone else?

 

[realbanana]

What's with all the mixed reviews

I'm kinda shocked that there seem to be so many mixed reviews. Anyone else?

 

[UJ95x]

i wonder if this is related to the transition to ART?

Doubt it. My guess is the issue is encryption slowing down the NAND on the N6. Will also be an issue on any phones and tablets that don't have an ARM-v8A CPU (Only the Nexus 9 has one ATM) if encryption is turned on.

I agree, this phone is more polarizing than any other.

Re: What's with all the mixed reviews

I agree... and AC's seemed to be one of the more negative reviews.

Re: What's with all the mixed reviews

It's kind of surprising that different people could have different thoughts. They need to reconnect to the hive mind.
