Not sure why you guys are having problems. My 6P is still blazing fast and flawless in every way. Truly fantastic device.

I can't speak to those users issues. Considering my device is perfect in every way I'm forced to assume pebkac problems, op. Bad cases, software, etc, leading their phones into oblivion. Live as Sundar intends and you will be rewarded.

forums poster duTrieux sits in a cluttered literary office, books and loosely collated drafts cover his desk. he holds up a musty tome of ancient text, opens it to a dog eared page and points to some incomprehensible, archaic phrase "see look at this, this is the 1700s version of the modern day colloquialism "gently caress me hard with a broomstick." it's fascinating, to watch language evolve. it's living, breathing, just like Mr. Fluffelboots, here. Isn't that right? Boots?"

Why do you need a spare phone? my Nexus 6P lasts all day, from the time I wake up, until the time I go to bed. It doesn't lag or bug and works perfectly. It's in perfect condition despite never using a case and living an active lifestyle. I have no need for a spare.
