- Lisa Gade reviews the Google Nexus 6P Android smartphone, made by Huawei.
** Read our written review here: www.mobiletechr...
This is Google’s higher end and larger of two models released in 2015 (the smaller and less expensive model is the Nexus 5X reviewed here: www.mobiletechr... ). The Nexus 6P has an attractive unibody anodized aluminum casing and a slim design. It’s a big phone with a 5.7” QHD 2560 x 1440 AMOLED display. It has the top of the line 2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 ocata-core CPU with Adreno 430 graphics, 3 gigs of DDR4 RAM and your choice of 32, 64 or 128 gigs storage.
The phone is unlocked for use on most carriers and in the US it supports AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint and Verizon with LTE 4G, among others. It has a 12.3MP rear camera with large pixel sites for better low light photos and a front 8MP camera. It has the usual dual band WiFi 802.11ac, Bluetooth, NFC and GPS. Other goodies include front facing stereo speakers, pure Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow with the promise of quick OS updates and an ample 3450 mAh battery with quick charging. The price starts at $499.
You are a such good reviewer!! don´t miss a single one of your vids! best regards from colombia!!
+Elias Martinez Hello Columbia!!
+MobileTechReview It's Colombia, MTR. I love your reviews, and have bought phones and now an XPS 15 after watching your reviews. Thank you so much.
bhusahn She did that on purpose! Lol. Surely you're aware of the Miss Universe fiasco.
+Yanano Bere If that's the case, jaja.
oh yeah and doze is a bunch of fucking bullshit too it does absolutely fuckall
Finally! Nice review as always Lisa.
not a hideous selfie Lisa!!!! you look great lol we waited for a long time for this review but thank you. I say that because I went ahead and got it and glad my favorite reviewer approves too!!
The review was worth the wait :) thanks Lisa!
I wanted to see your review so bad that I endured 360P
#subbedforlife
Yes!! I've been waiting for your review
god i love this lady
my favorite tech reviewer besides mkbhd
Did you notice an imbalance with the speakers? Sound being louder in the top speaker than the bottom?
I've been using my Nexus 6p for a couple weeks now and I love it.
Another great review Lisa. My go to channel!
I've been using my new Nexus 6P for about a month. it's pretty solid. after the 6.0.1 update some battery gains and even snappier.
Great camera, low light performance. I'm a night person, so that works out very well! I've never taken so many pictures before.
Was going for this one but the burn in issues still haunting the amoled displays turned me 180degrees to the Moto X Pure Edition. Love it :)
Reminds me of my HTC Max...large screen, battery performance, speaker, fingerprint, etc. The fast charge is sweet on Nexus.
Still using mine today! Still a great phone even in 2018! 😉
After watching plenty of flagship phone reviews, most reviewers don't test/ give any information about Call quality - the most important feature of a good phone. I took me 4 years (through iPhone 4s,5,5s, Samsung s4, alpha, lg g pro, g2, g flex2 , BlackBerry z30) to finally find a phone that call quality satisfies my need (I'm a non-native English-speaking ): Moto X 2014 ( I didn't like Chinese brand Lenovo at first).
Love your reviews, I hope you spend sometime to test, compare and rate Call quality feature in future phone reviews. Best,
Excellent review as always, Lisa! I definitely know what phone I'm getting this Christmas, in order to replace my HTC.
Thanks for this, Lisa!
Lisa, can you do a review of the Pixel C? Also, I would really like to see a comparison of the Apple/Microsoft/Google ecosystems and how each interacts with the respective phone, tablet and computer. I would like to see how each cloud service compares when it comes to appointments, docs, reminders, notes, photos, music, etc. Maybe even do a cross platform comparison like using Google cloud on iPhone....and some mix of the same for MS, iCloud.
Great review Lisa, and considering I'm commenting from my Nexus 6p, I have to agree it!
Mines arriving tomorrow. I'm so excited
so how's the phone
Omar Psybient Great everything I expected and more.
+Hazen Grass just ordered the phone. I get it tomorrow. I have s 5z for two days but am not satisfied.
+Omar Psybient (Str0be) Well there's a P in its name for a reason
+Hazen Grass premium. wonder what the X means in 5x lol
Really loving my nexus 6p. The visor makes it stand out from other phones and it looks very cool!
Better late than never. Even though I've had the 6P for quite a while now, I was compelled to see what you thought of the phone, Lisa! Great review, as always. Merry Christmas! :) btw, I hope you get to keep the phone. haha.
Personal taste is not out for debate. For me, the 6P's design is absolutely fantastic. It's different from the other devices and that's what makes it special.
thanks for the review
I really love your channel. You inspire me.
Great review, as always, many thanks!
Loving the Nexus 6p. Good review.
Great review. Received this phone two days ago and love it. Want it for my daily driver on Verizon. However, after two days I will be returning the phone. The deal breaker was the fact I can't get visual voicemail with Verizon. 😔
Watching it because I love your reviews. But I couldn't wait and I purchase and love my frost white 6p.
Awesome review Lisa! I've been waiting for this. Awesome phone with great features and competitive price. Can you do a review of BLU Life One X please. Thanks!
I love every single video you do but, in my opinion you should make every video 10-12mns long ( I know some gadgets are worth more mns of info). I have the n6 and seriously considering upgrading to the new n6p. keep the good work! :)
Finally haha. I have the 64 gb Frosty :). It's fast, fluid, good display, long battery life, the speakers are fantastic, great camera, and very very fast fingerprint sensor. Couldn't be happier
Still one of the best reviews appreciate your reviews so much, occasionally you contradict yourself, but no one is perfect, LOL, also appreciate your email responses to your viewers.
Nice looking phone although I still have not decided about that glass strip at the back fir the camera.
Thank you so much for mentioning the call quality... very few reviewers do that. I work in a loud environment so that matter very much. I even went to AT&T to hear for myself, but oddly, they said that their phones weren't set up to demo incoming calls. WEIRD.
Love your videos very clear and detailed
Great video lisa keep up the good work!! You have helped me decide that i should get a nexus 6p +1 sub
Lisa, what do you think about the controversy regarding the phone being so easy to bend and break from the point where the battery joins the motherboard? there has been a lot of fuss going on about that on youtube, a video got very famous and a lot of people has confirmed it. Did you notice any durability issues with yours? Do you consider that kind of thing a deal breaker?
Can you please comment on the whiteness on display? Do you see any pink hue / yellow tint? How is the level of brightness when compared to iPhones?
At 11:50, the yellow figure in the background appears red on the phone's display. How is the display and camera of this phone in terms of colour accuracy?
Great review as always. Im rocking with the 128 GB version. Absolutely an amazing phone. This is a win!!!
+Eric Thomas that's your problem not mine. And stop trolling go back to your mama basement. You been reported
Hi Lisa,
Can you clarify something? What's the difference between Amoled/ Super Amoled? Is there in fact any difference at all?
I almost got this device, sadly t mobile didn't offer it. I got the LG V10 instead. I'm really looking forward to what the next iPhone will be like.
How do you like your V10 so far?
+Samuel James over all one of the most underrated Android devices of the year. it's quite excellent. if you can deal with the size it's a win.
hey Lisa, nexus 6p's display seem to have a warmer display. Whites look slightly yellowish instead of bright whites . Is this a feature of amoled displays? Your response will be much appreciated.:)
Hi lisa, if i could ask you one thing.Could you tell in every phone review if it is compatible with european carriers? Everytime you say about american ones, and most ppl appreciate that but many of us are buying those phones from America co we need to be sure if it is compatible.Thanks :3
Nice review of this beautiful phone it's a shame that i cant have it in venezuela earning 11$ /m
hi Lisa.. any plans to review xperia z5 compact? thanks!
Hello Lisa. Question for you. Has Google made the carriers responsible for the updates to the Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X when you use a carrier SIMS card? The reason I ask this is because many of us bought a Nexus 6 from Google or Motorola unlocked and Google has apparently made the carriers responsible by SIMS card for our updates. As of today, my unlocked Nexus 6 is still waiting on a Marshmallow update from AT&T because that is who my service provider is. I just don't see the Nexus series being a benefit if I am still relying on the carriers for an update when Google use to update the phone directly with no carrier interference.
James, unlocked phones especially the Nexus have Android software on which the carriers have no control. All updates are received from Google directly.
+Venkat P I thought the same thing owning a Galaxy nexus device in the past. Apparently, my Motorola Nexus 6 bought from Motorola unlocked seems to be controlled by AT&T and their update system with me inserting my SIMS card. Not only have I had this issue, but majority of everyone who bought the Motorola Nexus 6 from Google and Motorola unlocked. The updates have been sent by Google but have been controlled by the carriers with user and their SIM cards.
Does Huawei make periscopes? Because I think their design team has had a mishap.
I really enjoy this channel 😀
+MobileTechReview What is your daily driver? Do you currently use this phone?
Not sure if this or Motorola X Pure 2015?
+gio132050 6P has a better display, better camera for stills (worse video), better battery life, Pure Android, No Lag. However the Moto X Pure has Moto Assist (Which can be a good or bad thing depending on the user), It is not stock, will not get support as long as a nexus, HOWEVER is cheaper and has micro SD expansion + customization
and you get a higher amount of storage due to Android marshmallow on the Moto X Pure
+Karim Sabar The Moto X style is stock with a few Moto apps.
If you have the extra money get the 6P.
+Hunter Miller the Moto X is close to stock, but it still isn't updated with Android updates like a Nexus is.
A Nexus will get updates faster and will keep getting future updates for a while after Motorola stops updating the Moto X.
Is it a tiny bit bent? Kinda looked like it
What wallpaper are you using?
Please review the Acer Predator 15 skylake gaming laptop. Thank you!
You should do top 5 laptops of this year
This or should I wait for new nexus phone next year with sd820
Could you please do a 2015 laptop favorites?
god I love your reviews
can i use the hotspot with this phone cus i cant make it work
im not sure about the nexus 6p battery plz let me know a bit more coz I'm POWER USER and i want a power house .. every review i watched is rating battery as B+ .
htc needs to make a Nexus One 2016 edition
Great review :)
Do you recommend this phone??
could you review the Lenovo Ideapad Miix 700 2 in 1 tablet and then compare it to the Surface Pro 4
Would this be such a great phone if you had to pay non-US prices? In the UK it is the equivalent of $750 (>50% more than US) for the 64GB version and to be honest only the Lumia 850XL & iphone 6s Plus are more expensive at the moment. So "no" for me. Once the other flagships have Marshmallow & the latest processors then this will look very over priced in my region. The S7 or HTC One, both due early April will be worth the wait especially as both will have a fingerprint reader on the front (much better). For US buyers it is very good value so I cannot really knock it at that price point.
As always an excellent review, thanks.
I wish they had manufactured the 5x with as good build. Mine is already creaking, terrible for a phone less than a month old.
Is there any way to get this phone on a carrier where it's on an installment plan with early upgrade program (i.e. TMobile JUMP on demand)? To my knowledge , it is not. This phone would TOTALLY be my 1st choice BUT not if I have to buy it outright and can't trade up before it's paid off. Thanks to any who can help.
does the 5x support all Netgear routers????????
as I have the nexus 4 and Netgear WiFi sucks with it👎
what phone do you use
Does anyone know if this phone works on the prepaid carriers such as Boost Mobile, or Metro Pcs?
Excellent review as always, Lisa!
Personally I'm not convinced it's Samsung latest panel. Looking at this phone, the Priv, and Galaxy Note 5 side by side, the Note 5's display is just so much more white, bright, and vibrant. I'd almost say the 6P has the Note 4 display, and the Priv a 2013/Nexus 6 panel.
The Galaxy/Note use Super AMOLED. Super AMOLED while nearly identical, is usually brighter and allows for better light/color transmission through the pannel. This phone is using just standard AMOLED. So it won't pop as much with vibrance. It's hard to track down if it's a Samsung screen to be certain. But then again, most manufacturer's apart from Samsung have the ability to supply AMOLED screens.
Scootaloo Actually if not mistaken, it has been confirmed that Samsung makes and supplies the panels for the 6P. It has also been linked to those from last year's Nexus 6 however I don't believe it was ever officially confirmed.
Also there was a news story a few weeks back that basically said Samsung has something like 94% of the profit from OLED production and sales.
+Matthew Benson Yeah, I can believe that. Technologically they are way ahead with AMOLED tech compared to any competitors. LG basically admitted to it to this past week by announcing that they're going to invest billions of dollars into AMOLED development to try and close the gap. I think most manufacturer's have realized that AMOLED screens are the future. They just have much more potential compared to LCD which has been basically perfected as far as it can go.
And even Apple announced a new development facility for AMOLED displays. Samsung is rumored to be in talks with Apple now too. Apple has hinted that they would like to see AMOLED screens on the near future.
Insiders are saying that Apple may be pushing for the iPhone 8 to release with the AMOLED displays. It won't release on the 7 series however due to a lack of production capacity. Samsung wouldn't have the production capacity for another full year yet supposedly at the earliest.
Samsung isn't likely to limit production capacity on the Galaxy line to support a competitor after all. LOL!
Scootaloo Apple announced a facility? I think Samsung and LG have announced new facilities. Apple doesn't actually have the capacity to manufacture display panels.
Matthew Benson No. Lol! They announced an 80,000 square foot facility for research and development of AMOLED and other technologies. Then they could give these designs to companies like Samsung to use to produce screens or other Technologies for their iPhones. Or basically what they already do with there processors.
Could you do a nexus 6p vs Samsung Galaxy s6 please?
I want one
Huawei is today the worlds biggest telecom manufacturer.. Phones, transmitters, recievers, network electronics they make it all. They make phones and tablets for several other known brands.
Is the video really 360p. Other videos are playing in HD on my iPad Mini
+Electro TH-cam video processing time....
+Techi Sage got it..thank you
yeeeeaaaaahhhhh a new vid 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😝😝😝😝🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
What phone you using atm Lisa?
+Stewart Craig Nexus 6P, iPhone 6s Plus and the Lumia 950.
+MobileTechReview how do you do for use three phones???
Definitely seems like a nice phone. And since it's sporting Samsung's gorgeous AMOLED 5.7” QHD 2560 x 1440 display, that alone makes the phone more attractive. I was using my friend's new iPhone 6s Plus this past weekend and was quite surprised at how the colors really didn't have that nice colorful bright look that the Galaxy phones have. The screen was plenty sharp. (It's full HD after all.) But once you get used to Samsung's AMOLED display, going to the LCD just seems like a bit of a downgrade. (But still nice)
But you can see why Apple is now seriously looking into replacing the 2 year old panel on the 6s Plus with AMOLED tech by the time the iPhone 8 launches. (Supposedly they are now in negotiations with LG and Samsung for supplying the displays.) So obviously don't expect the iPhone 7 to have AMOLED displays. It will likely reuse the same display that last years 6/6 Plus and this year's 6s/6s Plus are using.
Although there is a rumor that Apple could bump the smaller of the two 7's to 1080P to match the 7 Plus version.
Now if the Snapdragon 810 CPU and Adreno 430 graphics running native Android on the 6P aren't already enticing enough, the screen may push you over the edge for those who have never really looked at the AMOLED displays on the Galaxy line up.
I don't believe Apple will release a display as saturated as these phones. If the go with AMOLED display, it would probably look similar to the current iPhones default color profile with deeper blacks.
Matthew Gonzales The only problem is that it wouldn't make sence for them to want to do that, since the majority of people prefer the brighter colors that AMOLED affords.
+mobil techreview
Do you mind reviewing the ZTE Axon Pro
how on earth is everyone getting 5 hours SoT ....CNT get more than 3.5!
no yellow tint issues?
+Mohd Anwar hey Lisa, nexus 6's display seem to have a warmer display. Whites look slightly yellowish instead of bright whites . Is this a feature of amoled displays? Your response will be much appreciated.:)
She hates Apple yet when ever she reviews a phone she always compares it to iPhone, when she reviews a tablet she always compares it to iPad...curious.
+devildog1775907 LOL I don't have Apple. I use a MacBook Pro by choice for my work machine. But the iPhone and iPad are popular products that everyone has seen in person, so it's a good point of comparison.
Simply comparing devices to competitors doesn't mean they are given so racial treatment. Lisa has the most unbiased reviews I've seen on TH-cam.
+MobileTechReview Smh I really don't understand people I know Lisa how you feel. I love Mac book pro and ipads for tablets best. But as for phones rite now I've been using The Samsung s6 eagle plus for the past few months and just got the LG V10. So happy I do love the nexus 6p as well
LOL, you're unmasking yourself dude as the race-conscious one. Lisa is awesome. Wake up.
like the review but I disagree with the photo quality vs note 5. I prefer more of the nexus 6p pictures. both phones are great for sure
can it run crisis doe
Is it still worth it to get the Nexus 5, or should I save up for the Nexus 5x?
+Aye Alex I'd go with the 5x.
Ok thanks :)
+Aye Alex do NOT get the Nexus 5. It has a serious design flaw (the power button gets stuck and the phone freezes). I've had it for two years now and I love it but it's driving me nuts. It's a really common thing if you just google it
Ashkan Ahmadi Thanks for the info.
+Aye Alex that thing about the power boton is true. I love my Nexus 5, i'm a fan of Nexus devices, if you can offord it, well that camera is lovely, i'd defetively go for the 5x. 👌
FINALLY
I like her accent, plz help, where is she from?
just FYI, its not Super Amoled Display, just a regular Amoled Display.
+Roach Meister It's the Super AMOLED, they can't call it "Super" since Samsung holds the name for the technology.
Too much of shake on the video..!! what happened?
ITT people butthurt that the new Nexus is actually a great phone
You have a lot of water retention in your hands. Should get it checked.
''NEED GUIDANCE'' Hello, I'm buying a macbook. Its purpose is only for school use. I really need help on wether I should buy the macbook 12' or macbook air. MobileTechReview, please respond if possible!! (Others are allowed to answer aswell)
you can get more capable machines for less money than a MacBook, they really aren't worth the money.
8 day's to go and i will buy this phone! haha , can't wait.
Watching this on a Nexus 6P :D
Like it
no offense but the colors are granite and frost white don't take it to heart but you're like the only person I've watch that didn't know that
+James Cloud I don't buy into marketing names for white, black, gray, red. I mean really those names like frost, bisque, lemon drop-- oye!
+MobileTechReview lmao frost...
+MobileTechReview i think the rose gold for the iphones fall into that category too. it's more like a pale pink
whats the P for? i can think of many words that fit the letter P but surely they arent it. so whats the P for?
Performance? I think the bigger question is what does the X in 5X stand for.
+Paul Naama Phablet? Premium. Pretty? No actual idea, wish I could tell you but I don't think Google has ever said.
Penis
