Google Nexus 6 Shipping updates thread

Re: How many got to order and which day?

I see it now. So it will get to Memphis at 10:30ish tonight. That will be cutting it close. I only live 3 hours from Memphis so maybe. But I really doubt it. I am thinking Thursday. That is cool. One day won't hurt.

Hard to say.... It's coded International priority and those get packaged differently than stuff going economy so anything priority will be the first thing unloaded and processed... and those guys in Memphis do a heck of a job sorting and getting things turned out... I work at the DFW airport and it will get flipped to a flight to Dallas.. They have one that leaves at around 1 am so it's hard to say... If you live in Mississippi and just 3 hours up the road your package probably gets loaded on a truck being so close.. which can cause all sorts of other issues but could also get it there quicker... Depends on that traffic on 55 (or 78.. I don't know where in Mississippi you live.. I was born in Jackson and lived in Memphis for 4 years so I am familiar with the area a little)

I showed my son (who is almost 6) my new phone and he exclaimed, "that's not a phone!". Although he immediately proceeded to ask me if he could have my old one.

My 11 year old daughter said she wanted one after just seeing the case.. she put her iPhone 4S up next to the case and that was very comical...

Still no update on my Fedex Delivery Manager page! This is so agonizing watching this thread.

Back to F5!

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Got an email at about 4AM that my order from 11/5 on the Play Store shipped. No tracking info available yet, but since Kentucky isn't far from me and I got two day shipping, I'm hoping I might luck out and receive it tomorrow.

Placed my order the same day and got a notification that it shipped around 4 too. Looks like things are starting to break our way.

When did you order and from who?

 

[radyoactive]

Ordered from Moto the first day but I was later in the day and received an 11/26 delivery date. I'm just hoping Moto ships sooner than the dates they provided as they did when I ordered a couple of different 1st Gen Motomaker X's.

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Just chatted with Google to see if there was an issue with my payment and, according the agent, everything is in order and my order should ship by week's end. When I inquired as to why orders placed a week later than mine would already ship, she said: "We have a large amount of preorders and are trying to fill them as quickly as possible and sometimes they get out of order." Well, that makes me feel confident.

Anyone else order on 10.29 and not have the device ship yet or have the pending charge on their credit card disappear?

I realize this is petty and I'll get it soon enough but I've been looking forward to this device for awhile and would really like it before I leave for the holiday next week.

Same here. Mine shipped on Monday and I just got an email late last night with a tracking number saying that it shipped. Delivery for me has been updated to 11/24, but the tracking information says "N/A" for a delivery date.

Re: How many got to order and which day?

If anyone has any questions or concerns about the Nexus 6 then don't be afraid to ask since I already have it in my hands =).

Not sure if your a "pocket" person or not, but I saw this article yesterday and it's def a bummer for me:
http://www.droid-life.com/2014/11/17/nexus-6-ambient-display-pocket-dial/

I only carry my phone in my pocket and never have (never will) use a PIN/pattern unlock for any phone I have. Just wondered if you've seen any issues so far with this.

Re: How many got to order and which day?

I started a thread on battery life. Would you keep track of how yours is performing and post it there?

That is awesome... I never use any kind of screen lock at all either.. Nothing to hide or protect... If someone steals your phone and it's locked to where they can't access it they probably just destroy it.... or try and sell it to someone not smart enough to know any better...

I usually carry my phone in my back pocket opposite my wallet.... so could be interesting with the AMOLED and active display..... thanks for sharing...

That is awesome that they can turn it around that quickly and get it to Dallas. I would think you stand a decent chance of getting yours tomorrow. Hope you do!!! And I worry that they will send mine to Jackson via truck. That would mean Thursday for sure. But that is okay. I will check to see if there are any flights to Jackson later that night. And you are right, it would be I-55. I have a brother who lives in McKinney so I have been to the Dallas area quite abit. Love it there.

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Hopefully it's actually shipping from Kentucky....... Motorola originally said Texas and just seems like they never got them out of China to their Texas warehouse... but I doubt Play Orders would drop ship directly from China... but maybe.....

Good luck...

Yeah, I dunno. I just assume it's from Kentucky, given Google evidently has some kind of device warehouse there (that's where my Nexus Player came from). Also, I *think* I saw someone, either here or over at XDA, say that their Play Store order was coming from Kentucky.

You should have it Thursday morning.

Good play orders usually ship from a UPS Warehouse in Louisville... Motorola orders for the US usually ship from a distribution warehouse in Texas.. But Motorola said they never got stock from China to Texas so they just started shipping direct because they were behind. Maybe the play orders shipped from Hong Kong last week and just got received into the UPS warehouse yesterday and are starting to ship out.... That would be my guess....

So my mission to destroy my F5 button isn't being wasted! There is hope that mine could ship sooner!
