Any opinion on this vs whats known about the new Nexus devices coming September 29th? I was waiting for them to be officially announced before I buy a new phone but this is tempting...

That's an AWESOME price for what is still one of the best phones out there performance-wise.
Anyone own a Moto x 2014 before they bought the Nexus 6. Is the battery life and camera much better? I suspect them to me about the same as my Moto X.
That is a great price. I have the 64G Nexus 6 and it's fantastic. I read that the 2015 Nexus will have a little more than 5" screen. The 6" screen of the Nexus 6 is a great feature and it will be hard for me to settle for a smaller screen in the future. My old SGS III screen looks tiny.
If you just bought this phone like I did within the past 7 days from amazon they will credit the difference because of the price drop -)..... Oh yes you have to contact them it does not happen automatically..
Was waiting for the Moto XPE but decided to jump on this deal today. Best Buy did a price match so I'm already enjoying it.
Bought a 32gb white version this morning. I couldn't let this phone slide for that price. What's crazy is... just a few days ago I also bought a 64gb Moto x Pure. I guess it's gonna be a Moto month for me?
bestbuy also updated their pricing..
Hard to pass up, have a best buy gift card. No one knows how it compares to moto x 2014? Is it a step up?
This was too good of a deal for me to pass up as well. I've been going strong with my N5 for a while, and was probably going to keep it if Google released the 6.0 image with T-Mobile WiFi Calling, but I had to jump on this.
I was waiting for a few more details to be more concrete about the new Nexii phones, but so it goes. This is a steal of a price, and I've wanted to try out the bigger screen anyway. Everyone I see with either a Note, N6, iPhone 6 Plus, etc etc all say the same thing...once they got used to it, they can't imagine going back to a smaller screen. Good call for those of you who went to Best Buy and did the price match with them. I thought about checking it out, but was hoping I could skirt a bit of the Illinois sales tax through Amazon.
Looking forward to getting my N6, should have it on Tuesday I would think. Amazon shipping says Sunday, but I highly doubt it'll actually get here then.
I know these phones will work on Verizon but does anyone know if Verizon will actually activate it if the IMEI is not on their white list? Would swapping in the SIM out of my current Verizon HTC M8 work?
Thanks
Bill
I got this phone like a month ago at the first level of price drops
Lol, oh well. If your thinking about it do it. Great phone.
If you want one but "its too big", no its not. Buy one.
Too good of a deal to pass up, had to get another one as a backup.
This is the quandary I am in as well...I just sold my one plus one and an lg g3. I'm using an s5 for now but really hate all the crap it took to root and the limited development. I loved the one plus it had active develoment but missed the wireless charging from my s5 and nexus 5 before that. I think this may just be the right phone, wireless charging active development only thing missing is no fingerprint scanner and no SD expansion. There really is no perfect phone right now...

And I maybe the only one but I do love the IR blasters in Samsung and LG phones they are so convenient. If I could put stock android on my s5 it would be the perfect phone.
---------- Post added at 07:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 PM ----------
And I don't necessarily want to wait for the two new models as I like that the development is going strong on the N6. I got the N5 right when it came out and it took a while before good roms started rolling.

To the person wondering if the nexus 6 is a step up from the moto x 2014, I had both and the nexus is by far a huge step up in performance, battery life, and overall, everything. I am glad I did it.
I'm about to buy my wife one as well since the price is so low. What a deal!
Nick
Good to know. Thank you! You get at least a couple hours more battery than moto x 2014 right?

Should I sell My S8+ for the 8GB Ram Version of The Oneplus 5.... Pros and Cons?
I'm returning my S8+ that I have via JOD and getting the OP5 8GB model.
Pros.... you might get some of your money back even after buying it. The S8+ dropped in value recently its already down 120 or 150 dollars at my local carriers in my town. If you are thinking about selling it, then sell it. Its only going to go down. Samsung devices dont retain value that well. They sorta drop to the 200 dollar range and stay there forever. You can already get an S7 Edge for 240 dollars..... So..... i hope that alone speaks enough to you. OnePlus devices retain value very nicely. The oneplus one is still 220 dollars in most places. the 2 is like 240 the X is probably 200 somewhere i dont think many people care about that one. and the 3 is still in the mid 300 dollar range. Like 330-350. The 3t is still almost 400 dollars on places like swappa. Keep seeing 385 as the average number.
If you want my opinion rather than just some statements then I would say yes absolutely sell it now. The 835 is very underutilized on the S8+ anyway and most samsung phones are bloated messes. What even is bixby....?
Yeah, i'm concidering that also

I wouldn't.
I still have the oneplus 3, and I still wouldn't upgrade. The only this you're getting is an upgrade CPU and software support.
I'm in the same boat. With the price hike its no longer clear if this a good buy. Specially since the oneplus 5 comes with no IP rating and a 1080p screen. In Canada the oneplus 5 is going to be 680 dollars delivered. The S8 can be found for 700. The pixel XL which has a better camera and older chip is being sold for 600 here . So I cant really consider the oneplus 5 a no brainier.

What are you talking about dude? Galaxy S8 is $1035 CAD without tax, and with tax its $1169.55 (HST 13%). Pixel XL is $949.00 (sale price right now; regular $1049.00) CAD without tax, and with tax its $1072.37.
Lol, where did you get S8 to be $700 and Pixel XL $600 CAD? Tell me please. And I am asking outright price . Please post correct information.
Also, S8 can't be rooted. So much useless bloatware. Especially bixby button.
OP5 is better, op. If you can get the money back you spent on S8 or if its a bit low, then go for it.

Why the heck would you want a OP5? A 1080 screen, no OIS and from the reviews so far an avarage camera, no SD card slot, no waterproofing etc. It's a mid range avarage and fairly ugly phone.

I also forgot the S8 has an HDR display. YouTube HDR looks stunning on it.
Less bezel is more, which is why I'd personally stick to the S8. Really hoped OP5 would go in a similar direction.
Hello guys, I am overall happy with my G3, but I want a newer phone. I read som good reviews about this phone.
I also read about some customers that had issue with Your device is corrupt etc. <-- What is this all about and is there a fix for this?
I will root and put custom rom on this phone. My Lg g3 has gotten a little bit hot sometimes when working hard or charging wireless. How is this phone, anny heat issues?
Is there any other issues I should read about before I buy?
Thanks,
regards Morten
I upgraded from lg g3 to g6 and love it!
Unlocking boitloader and rooting was easy.
Sooo much better than g3.

Hey, I see you're Norwegian, so you're probably going to buy the h870 model. Just keep in mind that only the h870, us997 and h872 models can be bootloader unlockable.
i dont know if you gonna update your G3 for G6 because your are on the budget, but if you dont have limitations is rather better buying V35 or V30S (even V30), the reason is: more features, OLED display and so on...
G6 is good dont get me wrong, i have it and love it, but if i know today, i rather put more 150 and go by V30 just because the camera and hifi DAC, is a major updates from G6 to V30.
Trust me, when you go for V series you never want to go back to G series, since V is more complete, have a lot of better features for people who like to have them is a must go and i am sure you will enjoy it more.
If on a budget...go for G6....huge improvement over G3.
If not on a budget then don't buy V30 or V35...wait for V40.

Even thinking this way, remember LG phones price drop so quickly so, when V40 came out V30 will be under 450 if not under 400, and this is some value for money phone, not like V40 because that will be at 799/699 at the launch and people dont need to wait for a little improvement phone and overpay for a minimum upgraded phone.
Here is easy, if they like G6 and can grab it for good money then is a go, if the difference between G6 and V30 is little then go for V30.
V40 is at least a month or two away, for what? a bump from SD835 to SD845, little better display, little better camera?! At the time they release them isnt worth that much money.
I think people buy LG phones because price is good, and of course is on a budget side...if people arent on the budget and have money to spend is easy to see what they gonna buy: shamesh*t, crapple or one of the more advanced phones out (NEX S, Find X)...but that is people who like to overpay for something who dont have the value they are paying for.
* im not saying bad or good from anything, is just my opinion and my thoughts.
Hello guys, thanks for all your answears. yes I am on budget. I can afford to buy new flagship, but I think its waste of money. And new phones doesnt have much android development support either. Lg G6 is cheap on used marked, and I have been happy with my G3 for the years I have had it.
I have also been looking on Xiaomi mi mix 2 that has 6 gb ram compared to 4 gb ram same price used. Seems like a decent phone also. But its missing wireless charging.
My G3 never had good Wireless charging. There was allot of heat made when charging, so If I used it at the same time it would crash/get to hot sometimes. So I stopped using it. Is it still the same with G6? If it is, I do not care to much about wireless charging.
Yes I am from Norway. Is H870 the norweigan model or european model? For me it is a must to open bootloader.

OK so the N5X is 3 years old now... any new phones out or coming out that are similar in price (budget-mid price range), and will have similar custom ROM support?
Just curious, as my N5X is still going strong, but there seems to be a roadblock on getting Android Pie to be fully functional in the few attempts I see (encryption?)
I've been keeping an eye on the new Nokia #.1 devices, and other similar specc'd phones.
Thanks.

I replaced my Nexus 5x with an Essential PH-1 on Prime day. This is the first non Nexus device I ever owned but it's very much a spiritual successor to the Nexus lineup. I am waiting for it to go back on sale again so I can pick one up for my mom.
I would consider something like the OnePlus/Oppo if it were available on Sprint but unfortunately my device selection is limited being on this provider.

Those are still pretty spendy at $400+. I'm looking for the $300 or less range, same as the 5X was. I really can't see spending that much for a phone, as I'm not quite as hooked into it as some seem to be, I just need a nice reliable device I can customize easily like the 5X.
Nokia 7+ or Xiaomi Mi A2. Both Android One.
Nokia 7.1 (processor isn’t very good though), Nokia 7.1 Plus (awesome if launches globally near China price) or Nokia 8.1 (TBA).

I did... a little quirky, kept locking up, other little issues. I don't think Pie will be viable for the N5X in the long run.
Right now I'm running latest Oreo stock but rooted with Magisk and Franco kernel.

you can try the Xiaomi Mi 8 SE or The Pocophone F1 the Poco has a flagship specs with snapdragon 845 but its camera is not pretty good because Xiaomi just nerf the Poco's camera in the stock camera so you have to install a google camera. Mi 8 SE has snapdragon 710 which is quite rare and according to some people, it's a Snapdragon 845 with a weaker GPU.

Xiaomi Mi 8 SE not available in US as of now unless you want it shipped from China.
Pocophone is an option, but a little expensive for my tastes ($345 for 64GB model) and not available with US warranty (yet).

From everything I found, at that price point, the Pocophone is the best one, anything cheaper is way worse and not many things a little bit more expensive like at $400 or $500 are still not as good as it is. You don't really have to worry about warranty if you buy on Amazon though, if Xiaomi don't give you warranty, Amazon will as well as the resellers so don't worry about that. Bellow that 300 bucks, you may also get some other Xiaomi phones with good specs but most of them are using snapdragon 6xx which is not quite good.
Essential phone is truly the lowest price replacement of good quality.
I wouldn't recommend that pocophone for anyone in America because it doesn't work on Verizon or Sprint.
The pixel phones are all decent, but they have major hardware issues and look ugly.
LG makes the best looking and some of the most feature rich phones, but can't ever update software. (V30 is just an awesome phone form factor tho)
If I had to recommend a few replacements these would be it:
Galaxy s8 or newer Samsung flagships (TouchWiz is better than stock Android in 2018 amazingly)
Essential phone
LG v30*
Oneplus 6t (No other OnePlus phones though because the rest are beat by Galaxy s8/s9 and the essential phone at every price point)
*For v30 you must be a regular headphone jack user. That quad dac is amazing. Makes a $10 pair of headphones sound like $150, and regular car speakers sound like a full on audio upgrade. Being an LG there is next to no software support and no dev support, but the audio almost makes up for it.

Other option to consider however....
Downgrade to upgrade.
The 5x sucks you'll be happier with a Galaxy note 4, note 3, or a Nexus 6 as they are all faster and better phones in 2018 due to having 3gb of ram.
Plus they have great dev support and in the note devices extended batteries that can last a long time. Going from a Nexus 5x to any flagship with 3gb or more of ram in the last 5 years is really a massive upgrade. That 1gb of ram is the difference between usable and unusable.

Thanks for all that, Nascar. Lot's to consider, but the 'downgrade to upgrade' is a valid point. I was eyeing some refurb Galaxy s# phones, maybe I'll go for that.
I have bought a OnePlus 6 with the discount from Black Friday (and that will be valid until Christmas, I think). It is exactly the same price as the Nexus 5x 32gb originally.: $429,00. In this sense I think it is a proper successor. It is a little big, though.
And I disagree with the post above. The S8 is a great phone, but it is worse than the OnePlus 6 in most aspects but the camera.
Sorry if this one has been asked and answered before but I have a friend who wants to trade my note 9 which is the 512 GB variant for a oneplus 6t plus cash it's the 8GB ram and 128 GB of storage. I've always been a fan of oneplus but never actually owned one so I was wondering if anyone else have made that switch and if so what's your impressions. The reason I've never owned one been that they didn't have Verizon support but with the 6t they do. So any advice will be very appreciated
I would trade if you know you can trade for the 7 or if you want better camera

Get the 6T plus the cash and cash out for a 7pro, check the site(oneplus or carrier)if there's still a trade in rebate program(or sell it for the right price) on the 6t's you might be able to be qualified and can send it for a rebate towards the 7 and then use the cash to cover the remaining balance

One plus is doing good things ; and I live galaxy's but for me its the battery(loverall life) and display(opgestures), camera, dual sim fast charge ect. and the fact that these phones are still relatively new so lots of people assume I have an iPhone when asking for chargers or just showing some one something and they're baffled. what really took me over all. Moto "CHOP" was an idea I loved from moto, so in the 6t you can use the slider and dedicate it to a flashlight/ etc. just many great tweaks on custom an stock OS that I can't find on any other major vendor flagship devices. The community is greatly developing in the 6/6t/7/7pro etc.

The note 9 you have has the same amount of ram minus the amount of extra movie/porn/4Knonsense (350GB) extra space the 6t doesnt. Still 128gb is very sutible for a work or school dedicated daily phone.
They both have snapdragon 845s but the 7pro has the 855(BETTER). And the 8gb ram is the mcleren version for 6t and the note 9 has same but the 6t has to be mclearen, it can be tricked by unlocking and flashing the op1/2 imgs and changing build prop to display 8gb as ram instead of 6 but its probably unlikely that the seller/trader would be trying to do that bs to you, just a thought that I would do if I needed to tax on the device.

The only thing I dislike about the one plus over Samsung is the SAR values are alwayse outrageously differentiated between the company's and that Samsung uses better equipment with their software on the motherboard suck as resistors and such because the difference in radiation emotion rate from your phone usage is quite weird as its the same prosessors and chipsets, just a lot more feedback in thoes values
Get at least the 7T or 7 Pro, you won't regret it. I would just sell your Note 9 on Swappa, you'll get more money for it.

Okay thank you all I will check the 7 pro or wait for the 7T
Best value for money imho is the OnePlus 7 non pro. Approx 440$ on eBay with 8gb 256gb storage. The 7T is $600, I don't believe the 7T $150 better than the regular 7.
