I agree. At first the size had me questioning my N6 purchase. I also consume lots of media on my phone. I even purchased a Spigen case with a kickstand to help view media. The large screen and the awesome speakers has been a joy to use. It provides a more engulfing media experience. Suddenly I began questioning the size less and less each day. The positives have outweighed the negatives. I have yet to root but still get great battery life. It is going to be tough to go back to a smaller screen after the experience I am getting now.

Samsung Galaxy S II with CM12 (Android 5.0.2 right now) here.
It's 4 years old, the batterylife is over 24h (not a heavy user) and runs very smoothly.
No idea why everyone is buying new phones that quickly...

This is some great insight. Thanks, man!

[demondincredible]

I totally agree. I haven't touched my tablet since I brought the nexus 6 this past November

I love the fact it's big as I watch a lot of media and play games.

[BruceWayne-vbdb]

Good video. I like how you explain things and show video of what you're talking about.

[brandonwoohoo]

Bought it for that very reason, that it was too big. I replaced my Nexus 5 and 7 with one device.

I've had the N6 for about two months now, and so far i'm really liking it.  the size was a problem at first but it grew on me(now i have a problem finding the case i want for the price i want).  as far as the volume buttons i like where they were placed, really love the power button having that grid feel to it...and i haven't had any problems with the volume while talking on it(could that be from the franco kernel?) and i did find out the hidden led light in the top speaker (suppose to work only if rooted) actually does work when the phone is dead and u plug it in, it turns on a solid green light.

Awesome video as usual man! I feel the Nexus 6 is a bit too big for me...need to be able to one hand it comfortably...looking forward to more videos!

[johndavis]

I just got one this week and so far it is amazing. I came from a Galaxy S3 so the size increase is quite shocking, but I wouldn't take any other phone out right now in its place..

More and more great videos from you, Armando! I Thanks for thoughts!

[omix]

Good and honest review, Armando. I have the Nexus 6 and I love it.

[CosmicPotato]

Still rocking the N5. No other phones have really wowed me so far and made me want to get it. I'll probably just wait until Q3-4 and see what phones come with the Snapdragon 820. Honestly, the processing power and such up until now just seems very incremental. I'd rather save up for something that really feels like a full next gen upgrade.

Will never go back to anything smaller.  At first I had doubts (even coming from a 5.5 screen) but after a few days anything smaller just felt wrong.  Now after having it for two months I don't want to go back to the One Plus One or 2013 Moto X.

Likes:
1. Screen
2. Smooth and fast
3. Pure Android
4. Build quality is great. I also like the nice design touch of having almost everything centered: front speakers, headphone jack, rear camera, Moto dimple, Nexus logo, rear microphone, micro-USB port. Now they just have to center the front camera, and then the power/volume buttons like LG does to complete the look.
5. Front-facing speakers! Previously had iPhone 3G, Galaxy S2 and Nexus 5. Front-facing speakers are awesome and I can't see ever going back.

Dislikes:
1. Having same issues as you are with button placement. Not always, but enough to be slightly annoying.
2. Slippery back. I wish it was Moto Maker customizable. Would've liked to see leather backing for this phone.
3. Why are calls so quiet even on full volume? I thought I was holding my phone upside-down at first.

Not sure yet:
1. Not sure if I prefer curved or flat back yet.
2. Size. It no longer feels huge, but it's still not perfect feeling as my Nexus 5 felt a couple months in.
3. Battery life. It's a significant improvement over the Nexus 5, but it's not as great as I wished it would be. I almost went Note 4 or Xperia Z3 b/c of battery. So far, it gets me through most days without worry.

I still use a Nexus 5 and I'm still loving it in every way :3 especially with lollipop :3

[greatestNothin]

"I like that it has wireless charging, it's not a deal breaker" to "I wake up in the morning and unplug." Lol, you don't plug in once you realize the greatness of wireless charging.

I have a very large hand and I can use it one handed, not very easily, but I can.  My back jeans pocket works when out walking, I use Bluetooth with a headset working out, and coat/jacket pockets hold it fine.  My previous car mount (fit my S4) also works for the 6.  So I enjoy it.  Put Nova Launcher on it so double tap (with Greenify) to cut off.  BUT everybody should try a demo of it in store to see how it works for them.  Front speakers are great.Did put a Spigen thin fit case (?) that keeps the fingerprints off the back and has great grip.

Thanks for your words, i think im going for it in 2016
