"I've ordered my Nexus 6P" (Order & Shipping Discussion)

[nhuth]

I was called into work today on my day off and missed my delivery. FedEx specified "no signature required". I was pissed to see the driver didn't leave it at my apartment, let alone the apartment office. I called FedEx and the CSR told me that it is the "driver's discretion" as to if the package will be left or not. I rushed home just to take the door tag to the FedEx warehouse to claim my delivery. Than I raced home in a little bit of rush hour traffic to get this baby started up.

64GB/Frost

You made the right choice. I packed up the aluminum model to send back today, to keep the frost. The frost is sweet, and I'm not generally a fan of white phones. I think the fact that it has a black face makes all the difference in the world style-wise. For me anyway.

I'm not entirely sure I did make the right choice. I had a really tough time deciding. Will look at it again in daylight, but right now, under house incandescents, the frost has a slightly unpleasant yellow-greenish look that's kind of making me cringe. Is the silver aluminum a warmer or cooler tone? I tend to prefer cooler tones.

I may have to consider ordering the aluminum to see them side by side. I get fussy about color.

If i ordered my phone today. Will it ship before the 21st? What are the chances? I'm leaving my house the day after. :|

Today I received my 64GB Graphite ordered from Huawei on 10/10. It came via UPS and did not require a signature. The phone is fast, sleek and easy to like!

You probably would of been even more pissed if the driver left it and someone stole it. I think they made the right choice

What didn't you like about the aluminum? I'm trying to decide between aluminum and graphite so when either of them come back in stock (128 gb) I can jump.

Not that I didn't like the aluminum, just liked the frost better. They're both fantastic.

I had a heck of a time ordering. I tried for two days, each time it was "in stock" by the time I would checkout it was out. But I did get my order in on the 2nd.

Purchased 64GB Graphite on Nov 2nd
Shipped Nov 6th
Arrived Nov 11th

The box was sitting outside my garage door. No signature required, anyone could have just walked up and taken it.

Must say the anodizing is very easy to come off. Phone was perfect out of the box and one evening of just putting it in and out of my pants pocket by itself it has two small nicks. The case will be here by tomorrow at the latest so not really a concern.

final update (for me, anyway)...

preordered 128GB aluminum on 10/2, due to leave warehouse on 11/5 and arrive between 11/10-11/12; order is still pending.

ordered 128GB frost on 11/4, it arrived last night.

4 hours after i'd set up and activated the frost 6P, i got the "hi there, your order is delayed" email about the aluminum with the $25 credit. new delivery date is 11/20.

might see which one i like better and send the other back but overall, a TERRIBLE preorder experience with google.

Same experience here. But I am enjoying the Nexus 6P. It is a beauty, fast and everything is great about it including the form factor.
. The best phone so far. Migrated from Mercies 6.

Hi All,

Ordering anything from Google is a nightmare.

Nexus 6P 128GB Graphite

Ordered 30/9/15
Original Delivery windows 1st-5th Nov.
Email to state delay for 7th-14th
Order still in pending
Contacted CS and they have stated "Due to a unforeseen manufacturing issue" (cracking camera glass maybe) that my order is delayed still.
Escalated again. No contact so far..

Starting to wish I never bothered. btw Got the case about 1 day after ordering it nearly 3 weeks ago..!!! grrr

Order Chromecast. Google stated it "shipped" after 1 day. Took 14 days to be delivered. They are lying mofo's....

Now cannot re-order like so many have done on here as 128GB is out of stock. Could get 64GB or just bail and get a Moto X Style.. decisions, decissions.

Mine came in via Fedex Overnight yesterday afternoon. I had to head down to the local Verizon agent to get a nano sim since my Note 4's micro sim was the wrong size...and I didn't want to mess up the cut.
Had some issues (very slow app installs) transferring apps from the Note 4 via Google's phone to phone transfer service so I aborted that and just started fresh. No issues from there.
It was pouring rain here yesterday and all though the Fedex driver left the box in a bag, it still got wet. Thankfully, it did not make it into the phone's box.
64GB Graphite
Ordered 10/30 with estimated arrival of 11/18-11/20
Processing 11/7
Shipped 11/9
Received 11/10

Phone got delivered home 10 minutes ago and......................

I'm stuck sitting in the office for another 6 hours. I'll have to make do by staring at the Delivered FedEx screen in the meantime...!

Hello,
Yes I ordered Nexus 6p Nov 9th
-64Gb
-Aluminum
-Via Project Fi cause I got the Fi kit, hope I get good service here in Orlando, FL (currently on T-Mobile not canceling until I know Fi is legit)
-Expected ship date was Dec 7-13
-Status Changed to processing the night of 11/10 after I called "out of curiosity" to Project Fi team about order status. Asked if they could speed things up cause I needed the phone they said no others are waiting and they come first, basically first come, first serve. That was cool with me I totally get that.
-11/11 I get order shipped notice to my surprise around noon! I can't believe it really, totally surprised. I hope others are getting it just as fast too. I will update when I actually can see the expected ship date cause the Fed ex site has no info as of now.

Edit: FedEx site says it will be tomorrow 11/12

 

[texstar420]

Update: I just received the email, my order has shipped! It seems I've quietly been upgraded to overnight shipping at no extra charge.

Did you just say "Galaxy Nexus" holy cow that seems like a millenia ago that I had that phone. Are you running Lollipop on it too? My batteries were dying so fast I couldn't stand it anymore. Talk about a major upgrade!

 

[mltvolfan]

Just got notified by FedEx that my Nexus 6P has been delivered. Can't wait to get home.

I got my 128GB Graphite Nexus 6P the other day. I was unable to open it till today due to some circumstances.

Anyway, **** WARNING **** if anyone ordered the official folio case, DO NOT put your phone inside it. It is currently a flawed design. It goes in but is near impossible to take out. The material used is so inflexible and a lot of people have scratched their phone trying to get it out of the folio case. I happened to get it out after 30 minutes without a scratch but my thumb nail ripped halfway back. Yea, it's -that- much force to get it out.

I currently have the folio RMA'd for a refund. A $60 case shouldn't cause this much problems. Using my Ringke for now until my Spigen comes in.

I ordered the folio as well ... then saw the video about how difficult it is to remove again without damage to phone or case, my folio case is being RMA'd as well, not even going to open the package took look at it.

Fortunately have a Ringke Fusion on the way.

Mostly I'm just really glad to wake up and see the frost phone looks gorgeous to me in daylight again!

That is the same exact case I ordered. I got the crystal view one cause I want to see every bit of that beautiful aluminum 6p.
