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

[stuzer]

I'm probably going to order myself a 128GB 6p in the next day or so. Hoping I get it quickly. I'm planning to sell my Note 3. I know the phone itself is bigger than my Note 3 in some ways but does anyone feel like it's unmanageable? I honestly love my Note 3 screen but I sometimes miss being able to one hand my phone and thought about moving back to something smaller but the 5x is underpowered by comparison. I wish they made a version of the 5x with the specs of the 6p. That would have been BA. This is gonna be my first nexus so I'm super stoked. I've been fighting against Samsung and Verizon for root etc. for a few years now and brief interlude with an iPhone and then my original android fight with Motorola and Verizon for root years ago.

What do people recommend for the color? I'm probably going to use a case because I'm a dad and just that paranoid but just in case...pun intended of course

Just took delivery of my 6P 128GB Aluminum. I was floored at how small it feels. It is so light. Construction is top notch. Just finishing up the 6.01 update after getting all my apps set back up. My S6 Edge just got to the point where it would burn through 5-10% of battery per hour just sitting there on my desk. Heaven forbid I should actually use it. I'll reset it and see how it goes. It will become a backup phone should something happen to this beautiful 6P. Can't wait to actually use the phone more than watch it install apps.

Anyone else go to order today and not getting the free overnight shipping? It says "Free overnight shipping until December 22" Does that mean until midniight on the 21st or through the 22nd? Why still advertise it if its gone?

Just talked to Google. The promotion ended at 11am. Its a "known issue" and they are trying to get it taken down.

Did they end up giving it to you when you called?

I'm likewise impressed. It feels premium with the aluminum back on my 64gb. Will have to get used to these buttons coming from an s5, but it was nice when I transferred my apps over to be able to delete all those sammy and vzw apps that I couldn't in the past.

They did not.

Wife ordered the 64gb Aluminum from Best Buy for me. I have a Note 4 I got when they released, but I am going to go ahead and keep it. I dropped the phone in the sink about 5 months after having it and took it to a shop and shockingly, it had no water damage. The strip did turn from white to pink though, so I doubt anyone would take the phone as a trade in nor could I sell it. Note 4 hasn’t giving me one problem though.

I should have the phone tomorrow, but if it requires a signature, no one will be home to sign for it. #firstworldproblems

It's on the UPS for delivery. Hopefully I get it in time to run to AT&T and activiate it today before they close.

Undoubtedly Priority Shipment!

I just ordered my phone I got the 6p 32GB Aluminum with the quartz case. It should be here by next weekend. I debated getting the 64 but then I looked at my current phone which is a 32gb and ive had it for a year and still have 18 gb. Now with my current phone I dont have any extra apps, but I figure without all the bloat some of it will equal out but I do plan on adding some banking and other apps (no more than say 8-10) apps this time around. I dont keep music on my phone and I dont keep a lot of pictures, so 32gb will be good enough

Now I just got to go to sprint and order the sim, supposedly with sprint you have to order a special sim

Just jumping in to confirm how useless the Huawei Official Store - Buy No Contract Smartphones support team is. I only ordered through them for the use of Affirm and knew it was going to be a pain in the ****. I was on chat for 30 minutes all for them to give me the run around and tell me that once it ships, it'll take 5-7 days. I repeatedly had to remind them that my question is actually about when they expect the phone to actually ship.I don't care about what the shipping speed is, just want to know an actual ship date. If the phones in stock, why would it take so long? Turns out they don't know when to expect it to ship but it'll be 5-7 days once it leaves. Ordered last Wednesday. The wait continues.

We hang together here, Nexus 6People. It's a good force to be with. We hope SOON!

If you get tired of waiting, there's a way to order from Google and still use Affirm

Just ordered 64GB Gold today on 1/5/16!! I've been waiting for the gold to be released!!! I can't wait!

 

[guinnkevinr]

Thanks for the tip. I've canceled my order with Huawei and ordered the Gold version from Google! Should be here tomorrow. I was on the phone with Huawei today and they said it might not ship until the 11th. Almost two weeks after it was ordered. No thanks.

I did pay for overnight shipping. Confirmation says 1/6-1/7. I'm figuring I ordered early enough to get it shipped out same day. Fingers crossed. Did you do free ship?
