one reason why i should go 6p? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

for 2 years ive been a oneplus guy and i love it , but recently its been falling apart (replaced mic , screen , camera) and it just isnt what it was! Willi get the same experience with this?

XDA Development! Happy Flashing!! Oops 2 reasons

It's a good phone. And it doesn't require rooting to be a good phone. It's good right out of the box.

well it doesnt require rooting , but i want that available , i want unocked (carrier) , unlocked (boot loader) fully customizable , no bloat from carrier or manufacturer , usually only buy these kinds of phones , i know the nexus 6p is and same with the pure and 1+1 always has been , when did they release the 6 p in the states? i shouldnt have any problem with straight talk ? its ported to att

You might consider OnePlus Three (Coming soon).

Nope bought a 6p ill know in a couple days whether its the real deal or not

I have got a OPO and you will definitely get a better experience with 6p..Also the reason for getting 6p, You wasted enough time to post on xda to ask for reason instead of thinking one yourself

Oh i get great ideas through xda , helps making a decision

It's still one of the best phones out there. I tried the Samsung Galaxy s7, LG G5, and others. I still keep coming back to my good old 6P.

First time I don't feel like getting a new phone...

I usually switch phones every 4 months but since I got my nexus 4 I do not feel like getting rid of the nexus 4. Anybody else feels the same out there?

I do too. Except for the limited battery capacity, the phone feels great. You get to do what you like with it, no oem restrictions and always the first to get software updates.
I too am that type of person but I'm really enjoying the nexus!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Me too! I plan on getting a new one in 2-3 years but only if there'll be another amazing Nexus available
Pretty much this. I'll probably just stick with whatever the latest Nexus is.
Unfortunately I don't feel the same way. This HTC One is calling me and I must get it.

Anything special about it? I read it has many production flaws + software will be two versions behind within 2 months when klp comes out. Still great phone though!

I was drooling over the HTC One when I first heard of it. But then I thought "Mine is better cuz it's cheaper, *****es".
(I still secretly love the HTC One tho. Please don't tell it to myself or I'll regret buying the N4)

i do... abit for the Z
The Nexus 4 is the perfect phone for me, no doubt about it.
However, being the tech geek that I am there is no doubt in my mind I will grab the Nexus 5 about 6 months after it's released (I don't want to deal with launch-day drama and hardware issues which always seem to plague the initial Nexus releases)
I can say, however, that I will only be buying Nexus phones from now on since they have finally stepped up to the plate with decent hardware and specs. The Gnex was a massive disappointment to me, I sold it within four months of owning it.
Same for me. I had the one x for the last year but it has started giving me trouble by not recognizing the Sim card was in the slot.
I was torn between the nexus 4. HTC one and the galaxy s4.
After much deliberation I went with the nexus 4 and I'm so glad I did.
I owned the nexus one before so I am already accustomed to the nexus experience.
I honestly didn't expect the 4 to be so much better than the one x. Snappier. Better gaming performance and longer battery life.
I'm so glad I switched

Good luck with HTC. I just sold my HTC OneX+ after 4 months only. Just can't stand anything except stock Android.
Same here, N4 is perfect for my needs.

I've upgraded from a BB Curve 3G, So as you could imaging this phone is one hell of a upgrade, So I won't be looking for a new phone anytime soon. Well happy with my Nexus 4

[Q] Why did you upgrade to the LG G2?

Why did you upgrade to the LG G2?
Battery, Bigger Screen without going too big with the phone, LTE (not that i need it yet), and just because i got it at a good price, was deciding between Nexus 5 or G2 so i went with the G2. Came from a Nexus 4.
EDIT: Oh yeah better speaker than the N4 (and the N5 I think), build quality is good too.
Note 3 was too big and I never used the pen.
No nexus 5 on Verizon hoping to get kitkat soon

My beloved Droid DNA had a cracked screen. I couldn't justify the cost of repairing it vs getting the G2.
Wanted something new after using my Galaxy S1 (Now my trusty backup phone) for 3 years. Do I need to say more?
G2 seemed like the obvious choice. Waited a bit for the N5 but I'm glad I got the G2, as the 16GB version of N5 costs the same as my 32GB G2 here in Norway.
My Gnex started to slow down and I wanted something stable. The G2 beat out the Moto X by passing the 'how will the device be 2 years from now' test and the Nexus 5 by me being a Verizon customer. So far, I'm extremely happy with my purchase and am looking forward to rooting soon!
Lots of the same reasons above, no Nexus on VZW, GNex showing it's age, ease of rooting.
Really like this device now that I've had it a bit.
The Nexus 5 wasn't coming to Verizon and I couldn't stand my Galaxy Nexus battery life anymore.
I just switched from Verizon to T-Mobile so have access to both the G2 and Nexus 5. In that regard, G2's battery life vs N5's crappy juice won out.
Not to mention that T-Mobile only carries that 16GB version of the N5 for some stupid reason.
After spending a 8 months with a Spectrum 2 and no Dev. support, I was going crazy with Rom withdrawal.

How do you like it as compared to your DNA? That battery apparently just went on my DNA and I was looking into this phone.

I had a Galaxy S3 that was affected with the sudden death glitch. It was the specs that caught my attention, but ultimately it was playing with the demo at an AT&T store that won it for me. Got a good deal on it too. $115 after taxes.

Firstly because of sound player. 192/24. Secondly camera quality especially 60fps. Then 5.2 screen also was important thing.
I just got mine for free plus 30 for activation. Should get here tomorrow. Haven't even used one yet.

Galaxy S5 or LG G3... Help me decide

Hi all.. I've had my nexus 4 for quite some time now and loved it..but it's time to upgrade.
Before I got the N4 I was always upgrading to the newest phone but this one stuck with me. A bit too long lol.
I am debating between the s5 and g3.. Will be on t mobile.
Have any of you switched from the n4 to either? Opinions?
Thanks

Had chance to test both of them,.. Lg G3 i would choose,.. Regardless if u r planning to use original rom or custom rom. It feels more confident than Samsung, and another thing, spare parts are around 30% cheaper, at least in my country.

I just bought my first Android device coming from a long line of Windows phones. I've handled my friends Galaxy S4s and saw the S5 in store. I ended up purchasing the G3. I gotta say its a slick device.

They took a little to get used to, but they don't bother me. I kinda like how the sides are smooth.
MAY i recommend oppo find 7a if you crave more battery life OR the find7 if you want high performance and more sharp screen on expense of less battery life ? in either case its removable so no worries , its a solid build which kicks lg g3's ass

USA T-Mobile LG G4 owners thread! Vote if you have one! POLL

Just want to see how many people here on XDA have a USA T-Mobile LG G4 H811!

Do you think Development will crawl on this phone like on S6 Edge?

I really want this device But I am a huge flashaholic hence why I have a nexus 6 now and gave my note 4 to wife. But do think there will be enough interest here? I was looking at the T-Mobile s6 edge forum and there is 1 rom lol. Just hoping this phone will get some more mainstream developers. What do you think? Will that stop you from buying this phone? All interest is seems to be in note 5 camp now.

You already answered your own question. If you want development you have to go with the masses which is the nexus 6.
