Anybody successfully use semble with the 6P. I tried it today and no go. I suspect it's because Google pay is set to always on. But I see no way to turn I totally off.

I think I'll be getting the mobile from Google Play direct, seems like PBTech are only going to have the graphite 32GB model, I have heard though that they are getting a shipment of 500 units, so hopefully there are a few 64GB ones in there, I would really prefer the Aluminium 64GB one though.

I can't select the 64GB option on the side bar in the Google Play store, there also seems to be no reports about this, so frustrating!

@lNomNoml The play store is broken for the two new Nexus phones. On the 6P there is a "Join Waitlist" button at the bottom of the options panel so I'm assuming they're out of stock for now. It's been like that for a week or so.

It might be worth checking out AliExpress who are having a sale shortly to see if you can find a cheap case you might like.

Quick question, is there any Folio/folding cases which don't have that little flap bit. To me it makes me look like a ladies purse...

Edit: I found This which IMO looks pretty sweet. However the material looks very thin.

So being someone who doesn't like cases, (indeed, I hate them), I have taken the plunge and purchased the adopted case for the 6P. Found here https://store.google.com/product/adopted_case_n6p

h
opefully I won't be using it too often, mostly for doing outdoors and such, but I couldn't stand the constant fear and feel like it is a good investment while I am getting used to the size etc.

hopefully the fabric back keeps it interesting and it isn't too thick overall!

I was looking at that, $60 though....

I guess its like an insurance policy so to speak so $60 isn't much.

Edit: Well cant even add any of the cases to cart.

That's exactly my theory on it. while expensive, it is money well spent and not fugly!

I take it you don't like the cases from Spigen?

Maybe this is a dumb question but can you enable/disable the high speed video (240fps I believe) or is it always enabled? Anyone know any good apps for playing back the video in slow-mo? Been through a few on the app store but most seem too crap and can't for sure work out if it is at 240fps or 30fps.

Can anyone recommend a quality car cradle which will fit a 6P? current one I have only just fits my S5 so won't be big enough.

I don't use a cradle, but instead use the Logitech +drive system. It's great, and I've been using it with various phones for years.

I have a 6P with a Nexus case, and the magnetic plate just wedges really nicely between the case and the phone on the inside -- no need to stick the plate onto the phone or the case.

+1 for the +drive, is an awesome solution that does not seem to get the praise it deserves

I use one on my Smart Ultra, guy at works has one on his iphone 6+, is more than capable of holding big phones
