Google Nexus 6P

I've used S6 edge. Phone is typical samsung, toned down touchwiz and great camera. But the phone looks really ugly with case on. Especially from the front. Do look into it

i never put a case on any phone. if it is slippery, i'll put a dbrand skin on it.
The only thing i am worried about Samsung flagships is that they are late to get the latest android update. S6 edge+ will get marshmallow after s7 launch and i am not even sure if it'll get Android N. Indian variant has Exynos which means that i can't even find good ROMs for it.

My friend has the rugged case on it and though it protects the phone, its spectacularly ugly from the front

any of your friends has a Nexus 6p? Are their any hardware issues with the phone? It is hard to judge a phone through Youtube reviews because build quality issues only show up after 5-6 months.

No 6P yet. But 6P did have back screen breaking problem.

Nexus 6P is serving me well too, period. Haven't faced any issues. No bending. No spontaneous visor glass breaking. No uneven screen issues.

The spontaneous visor glass breaking occurs only at places where atmospheric temperature is very low. The sudden drop in temperature (e.g. taking phone out from the pocket and keeping it on a table) is what makes the glass break. This risk is minimized if you use a case, which prevent the glass coming in contact with the table. And this only happens if the temperature drop is significant. This was happening on Nexus 4 too.

[Nishant]

I never use phones without a case.

@MonsterBallsofDoom I am on the same boat as you. I am confused between Nexus 6P and S7/S7 Edge. Excellent low light camera from S7/S7 Edge is making me favour Samsung. I take lot of pictures from phone camera and having an excellent camera in a phone will be better than frequent OS updates.

If camera is the priority, Nexii shouldn't even be considered as an option.
