Best overall Android phone! In Depth Review. Update 6/17/16
By Justin
First and foremost, what is a Nexus Device and why should I choose it amongst the many top tier phones out there? A Nexus is an Android phone designed by Google, with its most notable feature being stock android and fast software updates directly from Google. I'll go into further details in the review. I've used the Nexus 6P for over a month and here are my pros and cons (in no particular order).
Pros:
Battery Life:
This is one of the biggest advantages of the Nexus 6P; as it lasts longer than other flagship android phones. The Nexus 6P can easily manage a heavy day of use or a moderate day of use with extra battery life left over. When being compared to similar spec flagship phones such as the S6 Edge, G4, and the V10; this is is a significant improvement. In my personal use; I can manage to get 5 hours of screen on time with moderate use (playing games, using Reddit, and browsing social media) with the brightness set at 75% while using mostly wifi and occasionally switching to LTE. The 6P has its own quick charging, going from 0 to 100% in just an hour and 20 minutes. Your results may vary, but many other reviewers have given the Nexus 6P praise for its great battery life.
Performance:
Another main advantage of owning a Nexus phone is its stock software. This means no unnecessary apps, bloatware, or other preinstalled programs that bog down performance. However, this could be a slight con to those who enjoy the extra features manufacturers do include such as multi-window or clearing all background apps with the push of a button. In addition to stock software, Nexus phones are first to receive updates directly from Google themselves. This means frequent and up to date software. Paired with the latest Snapdragon 810 (2.0), Adreno 430, and 3GB of LPDDR4 ram; the Nexus 6P has buttery smooth performance. Animations, load times, gaming, and multitasking are all superb. What good is a phone if the software isn't optimized well to run on its hardware?
Display:
Given the fact that the Nexus 6P does use the latest generation Samsung AMOLED panel with a 1440p resolution, it's no surprise that the display on the Nexus 6P is simply stunning. Having AMOLED technology on the display means that it has the ability to turn off individual pixels, giving black colors an ink-like look. In addition, colors are vibrant and saturated. If you prefer a more balanced and neutral look, SRGB mode can be turned on (via developer options). Maximum brightness is a little weak in direct sunlight, especially when compared to phones such as the S6 Edge. Overall the 6P has one of the best smartphones displays to date.
Speakers:
Because the 6P has dual front facing speakers; audio is directly facing you and is and free from being blocked by a finger or hand when the phone is being held. From a non- audiophile's perspective; the 6P has a speaker that is loud and clear. When paired with the gorgeous 1440p display; the 6P makes a great device for media consumption.
Build Quality:
The design of the phone is purely subjective; so I'll touch down on the build quality itself. The anodized aluminum combined with a nearly all metal chassis makes the phone feel premium and sturdy. With that being said; it’s also easy to scratch; so a phone skin or case is recommended. It won't bend when being put in your pocket and I have yet to see and bending on my own 6P. The very bottom portion of the phone is plastic (but feels just like aluminum); this allows NFC and other waves to pass through. The 6P feels just as premium as other flagship phones.
Camera: Without getting too technical, the camera on the Nexus 6P is definitely up there for top smartphone cameras, but does lack Optical Image Stabilization. This isn’t much of an issue unless you’ll be taking a lot of 4K video (where micro stutters are noticeable). Dynamic Laser Autofocus is fast and pictures are taken relatively fast (unless when taken in HDR+ mode), where the processing takes longer than other phones. In addition, there are no manual controls that can be found in the Samsung and LG phones, and the Camera software can be slightly laggy at times. The 6P does shine in low light performance; where enabling HDR+ makes a huge difference and goes head to head or sometimes even better than similar flagship phones. Pictures are a little saturated (not as much as the S6/Note), detailed, and sharp. Overall the camera is fantastic and can trade blows with flagship phones but falls behind when it comes to 4K video.
Nexus Imprint/fingerprint sensor:
This is a new feature implemented into the Nexus phones, and it’s amazing. It is rare for the fingerprint sensor to fail to read my fingerprint. It goes head to head with Apple’s own Touch ID in terms of accuracy and is (barely) the fastest in terms of unlocking speeds. An advantage it has over the iPhone and other phones is that the phone can be directly unlocked via fingerprint without turning the screen on beforehand. In other words, the fingerprint sensor is always on and doesn't require the phone to be woken up beforehand.
Cons:
No Wireless Charging:
Unlike most flagship android phones and the previous Nexus; the Nexus 6P does not support wireless charging. This is due to the aluminum design. However, NFC is supported. In my opinion, the reversible USB Type-C that supports rapid charging makes up for it (it's reversible on both ends).
No Micro SD expansion:
Pretty self-explanatory. The Nexus series hasn't had the option for expandable storage for a while now but it is something to note. However, the 128GB version of this phone is around the same price of the base models of other flagship phones.
Camera Lacks OIS (Optical Image Stabilization):
Overall, the Nexus 6P is hands down, the best Android phone of 2015. It has an excellent battery, smooth performance, frequent software updates, sharp display, dual front-facing speakers, and a good camera (especially in low light). In addition (at least for those buying in the U.S), it comes unlocked at a significantly lower price than its competitors. I would give this phone a 9 out of 10.
Update 6/12/16:
My Nexus 6P has been running great without any issues. Updates directly from Google have been quick as expected and they've updated the Camera application. The User Interface is cleaner and the Camera App itself is faster than before. The biggest change is the 1080P video being much smoother when faced with shaky movement. I would still recommend purchasing the Nexus 6P.
