nexus 6 price drop

There is a difference to note on buying a Nexus 6 phone direct from Google vs any other retailer, even if it's unlocked. If you purchase direct through Google the phone warranty is intact if you root, and support is provided directly from Google, not Motorola, for the Nexus 6. I verified this twice with 2 different technicians. However, if you purchase the Nexus 6 from any other retailer (Motorola, Amazon, BestBuy, etc) and you root, you will void the warranty. I verified this with Google and Motorola twice. The nice thing about the Nexus 6p beside the added specs and features is that it's only sold through Google so you know it will support root. I have Verizon with unlimited data, so the purchase of a Nexus 6 or 6p requires root to unlock the tethering. I will try out Project Fi first, but if it doesn't work for my needs, I will want to root so I can unlock tethering. So with Google's price of $549 for N6 64gb or N6P 64gb for the same price of $549 + better specs and a $50 Google play gift card on preorders, the N6p is the better deal. That's an apples to apples comparison. Buying from Amazon vs Google is an apple to oranges comparison. BTW, I did buy the unlocked 64gb N6 from Amazon, but it's still unopened and I have 30 days to return. I'm taking a gamble that in a few weeks Google will drop the N6 price to match Amazon, then I return it to Amazon and get from Google. But that N6p is looking nice too....
 
32Gb on Ebay right now for $300 and free shipping. I'll take the wireless charging over 2.0 usb c.
 
I bought a 64gb N6 for £250on eBay two weeks ago. Second hand, but in excellent condition. A real bargain.

For the last few days I have gone back to my Moto X and it's made me realize how inconvenient such a large phone can be. Plus I've cracked two Orzly glass protectors when I started walking with the 6 in my back pocket. I thought for sure I'd keep the 6 for 2 years or more, but now I'm already pretty sure I want the 5X if I switch to Project Fi.
 
Just grabbed a new n6 for 299 32 gb model I love it so far I think it was a bargain I was close to getting the 5x but I'm happy with my choice.
