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

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!

Just in my Murano.

My Plantronics Wireless EarBuds (BackBeat Go 2) and UE Roll both works flawlessly.
 
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.

I don't think the 6P is sluggish, but I am torn between the phones. I am leaning towards the Note 5. I think they are both fantastic phones and I don't blame anyone for liking one over the other. They provide different experiences. The Note 5 I just think will make a better phone for me. I haven't physically tried either, so it may not go as expected.
 
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.

Or that easy!
 
I love my 6P, really nothing negative to say about this device. So far it's been awesome!! Love it
 
I've never had a better experience with am Android phone. Had the note 5 great phone but after 2 months it started stuttering and became sluggish. So annoying when your trying to type a text message and the keyboard lags the whole time. Got to be to much for me. Purchase the nexus 6p and never looked back. Honestly the best phone ive ever had.

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.

Well, I'll be ordering mine on Thursday when I get my paycheck. I'm looking forward to it!

Just an FYI, I'll be getting the 64GB graphite version.
 
I'd love to buy one, but....damn I hate being poor.

Waiting to order mine. Can't decide which color. Curious about the gold.

dude go with the gold, it's sick ... really doesn't matter if you use a case, and I typically dislike gold, but the contrast with the black visor and chamfered edges is stunning.

I have the graphite, I just like that stealth look, and use the Nexus microfiber case. If I had the option at the time I might've gone gold though. All the colors look amazing. I don't know why, but for some reason the frost is the nicest white I've seen on a phone. The aluminum is kinda boring IMO and reminds me too much of an iPhone.

Either way, good luck and let us know what you decide!
 
Well, the 6P, I think, is really the end result of Google's efforts to make a phone that best expresses their vision of Android. It was the first time they sat down and said, "We want this phone to be the best." The Nexus 4 and 5 had enough shortcomings to come up a little short... and I honestly think that the Nexus 6 was really supposed to be the Moto S... but Google had some issues getting the right OEM partner on time, so they went and poached it from Motorola, who wasn't exactly in a position to say no.

So they went to Huawei, an OEM that already had a reputation of being able to build an excellent phone (albeit with questionable software) and said "You make this phone for us, let us handle the software, and it'll be something really special." And the end result is the very first Nexus device that really concedes nothing to the competition.... it doesn't have a junk camera (like the Nexus 4), a battery waaaaay too small for the hardware (5) nor a size that is off-putting to the general phone-buying public (the Nexus 6).

So is it the best Android phone, ever? After having it for a month and putting it through its paces, It gets my vote.

64GB Graphite Nexus 6P owner here... I find the phone a little slippery and have put a case on it for now. Ordered a dbrand carbon fiber skin though. Will put that on when it arrives and ditch the case. After applying the skin, the only things visible are the chamfered edges and the fingerprint sensor, so colour would not be that big an issue for me. Though people also like rocking the phone naked, and that would obviously be a major influencer in deciding which colour to get.

The global Xperia Z5 is hands down the best phone made to date. It's camera is better than the 6p is almost all situations, its waterproof, has a 2 day battery life and a better screen. It can be made to look and behave almost exactly like stock Android with a little bit of tweaking

I'd argue to two day battery life depends on a ton of factors, so that's certainly not universal. Waterproof is a great feature though, and there's no doubt the Z5 is a solid device. Unfortunately in the US Sony really dropped the ball. The version they're bringing here doesn't have a fingerprint sensor, which after the 6p is a must have feature. I've never tried the camera, but I've read from multiple reviews that it's somewhat lackluster. That might be compared to the S6/G4 though, which are a notch above the 6p. Tell you the truth though, after 2015 I can't even tell the difference in photo quality among all the high end devices. They all look amazing IMO.

I really think it's too the point where the quality of the picture is much more to do with the person taking the shot than the phone. That's why there really isn't a real consensus as to which phone takes the best pictures... Reviews are all over the place. S6/Note 5, V10, 6S+, 6P, etc.. All are ranked best.
