Thoughts on Nexus 6p?

Hello,

 

Just ordered the nexus 6p through project fi, will be replacing iphone 6+ and AT&T. Iphone 6+ got the touch disease, so it's worthless. And I figure the nexus 6p would be a nice small upgrade from the iphone 6+. Plus never used androit phone before. But I'm starting to wonder if it wasn't the best idea. Since Linus never did a review of it, and some people aren't so positive about it.

 

Thoughts?

its a pretty good phone IMO, not the best ever made but its still a solid device and it has its perks like stock android

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

I love my Nexus 6p :)

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. 
It matters that you don't just give up.”

-Stephen Hawking

Be aware. The Nexus line is dead and I dont know how Google will move forward with support for it considering that the device is already outdated. If you want pure Android your options are the Pixel or buying the Nexus.
