Mine just went pending! :D Nov 2 -3 with two day shipping.

Alright guys. I have hit rock bottom. I spent 30 minutes last night sewing extensions into my jeans pocket to make room for this phone. In case you are wondering, my mom taught me how to sew with her sewing machine when I was younger. Not perfect but I am pretty happy how it came out. My pockets were always too short anyways since I keep my wallet in my front left pocket rather than a back pocket.

Similar to http://bethsco.com/2013/05/making-pants-pockets-longer-the-easy-way.html in method. The fabric is hard to tell but it is basically some of that soft eyeglass wipe style fabric which is durable enough but also should be plenty soft

 

Edit: if anyone else wants to do something like this your local tailor or even drycleaners can do it for like $15 a pocket at most. I just had the fabric and easy access to a sewing machine (at $15 it isn't worth it to hand stitch)

That's awesome and very creative. I can't stand a phone in my pocket so I'll sick with a holder (fanny pack if you will, lol). It's kinda big but it works.

That's freaking awesome!  :tu:

 

My Nov 2-3 64GB Aluminium is still Preordered.  However, I did finally get my Project Fi invite.  So that SIM card is ordered and on its way.

Remember that joining Project Fi disables Google Voice capability -- I believe permanently -- on that Google account.

 

Just FYI...

Joining AT&T disabled my Google Voice capability. :(

It disabled your Google Voice integration capability.  And that is a sad loss.  I do not know how Sprint pulled off the coup of Google Voice integration that remains exclusive to this day.  It is an excellent feature.

 

However, you still could use Google Voice -- you just would have to sign up for a new Google Voice number.  I realize that is not convenient now.  It could have been convenient, though, a few years ago when you changed your phone number anyway.  Your new Google Voice number could have been your permanent number.

So someone broke the embargo on the Nexus 6P. The video is currently private but someone did capture it and created gifs of the video itself showing off the device! The graphite is really freakin nice! All the colors are good I guess you really can't go wrong!

Any change today as my second order just went to pending for with a ship date of Nov 2nd over night. Plus a I am slighly jelly that the Grapite is getting all these nice close up shots (which are fantastic). You would think they would seed all three color to different reviewers!

Just curious, where are you seeing it show the ship date?  Do you mean shipping estimate?  Mine's standard shipping, which I believe is 2-5 days.  Did you purchase expedited shipping for your 6P?

I know this won't have WiFi-calling for Sprint, but I'm curious if they have fixed the no calls on WiFi connected to B41 network issue yet?  AFAIK, plagues the Moto X Pure and the Nexii still, right?

 

My coworker just bought hers yesterday on a whim.  Must be nice to have that kind of money, Jerry!

Does anyone know if the sim card from the Nexus 6 will work in the 6P, or do we need another sim card?

We've discussed this multiple times.

 

You need the sim card that is similar in the Moto X Pure Edition. 019962040146 is the product ID.

Thanks. After chatting with Sprint Int'l and digging through the thread my Nexus 6 sim card is the right one. I thought I was going to have to order another one.

This most certainly is NOT the correct answer.

 

You need a 4FF Nano CSIM V5.

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
