The 6p is hands down the best phone ever made!

Two months into my 64GB graphite 6p, and I'm still extremely impressed with what I consider the best phone ever made. I've read about Bluetooth issues in the car, as well as some microphone problems. Fortunately for me I've experienced neither.

What I have experienced is an original design that only gets criticized by people that haven't actually seen one in person. A fingerprint sensor that in my opinion is perfectly placed, works almost 100% of the time and will only get better as developers accommodate it's functionality into their apps.

An underrated USB-C that fits snug every time without me worrying about which side is up or down. This is something I now cherish and didn't care much about before trying it out. I figured what's an extra second or two, but it's a luxury that I'm glad I have. And that USB-C charges up my battery that consistently gets me through the day with 5 hours SOT, allowing me to do the usual, including the occasional Netflix movie or some Clash of Clans.

Some don't like AMOLED, I do, and I love the display and the size is perfect. Front speakers are now mandatory. They're not quite boomsound quality, and there's a bit more bezel than is like, but I can deal with it. I'd much rather have a bezel that's too tall than to wide, cause it doesn't affect functionality. I don't have big hands, but I can comfortably use it one handed.

The 810 is as quick as there is combined with stock. I've had no abnormal heating issues, and this is the fastest phone I've personally ever owned. Finally the camera, it's awesome. Are there better out there? Yeah, there are. But it's a great camera, albeit with some software issues, but for me, it gets the job done.

Overall, it's a killer phone. Some people seem to have some issues that others don't, and a lot of them can be fixed via future updates. It's greatly exceeded my expectations, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
 
I'm only 2 days into this phone but it's really on another level compared to my previous phones like the LG G4 and HTC One M8.
 
Botta Bing, botta boom.

Woke to a Marshmallow update and a reboot. :) All this before my 1st cup of coffee. Can it really be this good?

Nexus 6P 64gb with a fresh January and friends of Loyd and AC.
 
Just got my nexus 6p after being a note5 head. Gotta say, I'm still digging my note5 a lot more. The build note just feels better imo and it is more comfortable for one handed use than nexus. That fingerprint sensor on nexus though... That thing is amazing. Software is also buttery smooth. Note 5 is a buttery smooth phone, but nexus 6p does make it seem sluggish in comparison.

Overall, i think i need more time with both phones before I can agree with this statement. In the end, it is all preference.
 
Best phone ever.. the only issue I had was Ok google detection problem with that got fixed with 6.0.1

This phone is beautiful
 
Fix the Bluetooth and then I can say it is. Wouldn't connect to my car again this morning.

Man I feel bad for you guys with Bluetooth issues in the car. Is it limited just to your car, or are you having speaker/home audio issues as well? And is there any sort of work around it are you just at Google's mercy to fix via update? I use a separate device for audio so it's a non issue, but I'd really be upset if I was in your shoes. Good luck!
 
I feel what the op is saying. I don't know if it is the best ever but I'm sure it's one of the best design ever for a phone and will be in the conversation at all times. Some nicely design phone have been made by HTC, apple, samsung and other OEM's and this is right in the mix. I must say the back stands out from the rest of the competition giving the phone a unique look overall. Oh and one more, you know you have a nice looking phone when others compliment it all the time.

If people are complimenting you on your phone, gonna assume you have a Frost? I had a Graphite for a while and no one even noticed I had a new phone.
 
Just picked up a gold 64 gb 6P about a week ago running on Project Fi. No issues, device runs great, Fi service is exceptional. Battery life has been better than expected. I would recommend this device to anyone.

I've got the graphite with the microfiber Nexus case and have gotten several compliments, all from iPhone users ... they're all impressed with USB-C/quick charge.
 
I think the 6P is fantastic but the note 5 is still an overall better device in my opinion.

I have the note 5 but at times it lags. Very bad for a premium phone with 4 gig ram. My G4 never lagged with 3 gig ram.

That's funny, my G4 was the laggiest flagship that I had in 2015. Not to mention how hot it got and the unresponsive touchscreen issues.
