Google Nexus 6 by Motorola (Was "Nexus X talk leaked?")

yeah it also says it has sprint ID and Direct connect.  which worries me, I don't want any carrier customization.

 

I guess we won't know for sure until people have them actually activated, however I am betting that every carrier will get auto-provisioned via play store a number of additional default carrier applications (which can then be full uninstalled).

 

This 'feature' has been mentioned in several lollipop reviews.

Did you get it? it says key lime pie instead of lollipop.

 

Yep, I do know shit from Shinola -- and Key Lime Pie from Lollipop.

So while I received tracking for my Note Edge, I still have not gotten anything for the Nexus 6. Anticipation is a bitch.

Does Best Buy have stock in stores; that is the question.

Doesn't look like it. No Sprint store around got a note edge or nexus 6 but bestbuy seems to have the note edge in stock for sprint at every best buy.

Does anyone remember how long it was before a Nexus 5 was available I n stores? I ask to better prepare for the wait.

according to this article there was a delay with the Nexus 5.

 

I guess it depends on where one buys it (direct from Google, Motorola or by carrier), and where one is located at). I ordered the N6 on Sunday and it will be delivered tomorrow. (The Note Edge was also ordered and its coming today) Both through Sprint.

 

YMMV

So after reading the bad reviews on the Nexus 6 I got a iPhone 6 Plus.

 

A few things to note:

 

Pros:

  • TouchID is awesome
  • The display is awesome
  • The battery life is awesome
  • The build quality is awesome
  • It's ability to shift between bands and pick up LTE is awesome

 

Cons:

  • Notifications suck.
  • The vibrate motor is loud as hell.

 

I am tempted to return the 6 Plus to the Sprint store and get a nexus 6.  Will the Nexus 6 be unlocked from Sprint to work on T-mobile?  Anyone know?

priced dropped to $249.99 on sprint's website for 2 year contract. $648.00 off contract. i called in and got the difference refunded.

 

Very nice.  Now actually a buck less than GPS and free shipping.  Ahh decisions - keep iPhone 6 or sell it along with my old N5 and G2 to purchase a N6.  Hmmm

That's good because T-Mobile was selling both models so for the same 32/64gb model you can get with them. Sprint was charging 50 more just for the 32gb, not a good! But good news is  I may just pick up the 32 hehe now! Really want a white one though .

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
