      Thank you for the feedback, Boblushr. We are pleased to hear that you are overall pleased with your 6P. When it comes to the phone heating up, here are some recommendations for reducing excessive phone heat. Choose appropriate brightness and volume settings. When adjusting screen brightness, remember that if your screen is too bright a lot of power will be consumed, it may bother your eyes, and the back of your phone will get hot. Try adjusting the brightness to an average level and also allowing the phone to automatically adjust the screen brightness.

      Setup instructions: Go to Settings > Display > Brightness level. Adjust the brightness slider to the middle and select Adaptive brightness. Also, in the drop-down notification panel menu at the top there is also a slider that controls screen brightness.

      When adjusting the volume level, remember that if the volume is too high your phone will consume power quickly and the bottom on the back will get hot. Try setting the volume to an average level or lower and don't keep your phone at a high volume level for a long time.

      2. Choose the appropriate power saving strategy.

      Go to Settings > Battery > Menu > Battery saver and enable battery saver mode to reduce heat and improve performance.

      3. Turn off GPS when not in use.

      Turning off GPS: When you are not using GPS, turn it off. Many third-party apps send requests for your location information. If there is no GPS signal when you are inside, frequently activating GPS clearly increases phone power usage. Go to Settings > Location and turn off GPS.

      4. Reduce the number of apps used at the same time: The Android system supports running multiple apps at the same time. When multiple apps are running at the same time, phone power usage and heat increase. Please reduce the number of running apps and close apps that aren't needed.

      Conveniently clean up apps running in the background: To close apps running in the background, touch and hold the bottom right icon in the virtual navigation bar to show recently used apps. Swipe your finger left or right to stop apps that do not need to run in the background.

      To determine if any app is consuming a lot of power, check the list of apps ranked by power consumption in Settings > Battery and look at the apps that are consuming comparatively more power. If some apps you don't normally use are consuming comparatively more power, try stopping the apps from running or uninstalling them. (DM) HuaweiCustomerCare

    TBH, most people have the blinded assumption that Samsung makes the best phone. The Nexus series has done me well in reliability. Always improving and no forced obsolescence like I would get out of carrier issued phones. Looking forward to buying the Pixel XL as well.

    So I had to return my Note 7 (sigh) and decide to go the pure android way and got this. I wasn't really looking for a phone that can replace my Note 7 because nothing, at least for me, can compare to that but I was still looking for a solid phone with great features. This was my result and I love it.

      Thanks for the great feedback, WaffleKnight. We're happy to hear that you are loving your 6P. As you mentioned, the 6P is pure android. With Nexus devices, you always get the freshest, fastest, most satisfying Android™ OS available. First in line for software updates and designed from the inside out with an Android-centric point of view, Nexus is the ultimate Android experience. (DM) HuaweiCustomerCare

    Great phone, well made, great specs, looks great. The only issue I have is the battery, which runs out pretty quick. Charging on the other hand, is very rapid. I'm happy with the phone and am looking to buy the new one coming out in late 2016.

      Thank you for providing is with your feedback, LouisMiami04. We are happy to hear that you are overall happy with the 6P. The Nexus 6P uses a 3450 mAh large-capacity battery that should provides you with a long battery life. If your phone battery power drains easily, this may be because the screen brightness is set too high, the network environment is unstable, or the CPU is overloaded for games, HD video shooting, HD video playback, file downloads, or other scenarios. This is a normal phenomenon because your phone prioritizes by giving you a smooth user experience instead of reducing power consumption. To extend your phone battery life, you are advised to close background applications from time to time or take other measures to reduce power consumption, such as lowering the screen brightness or enabling automatic screen brightness adjustment.

    I was hesitant to leave my iPhone, but once I learned the Android OS, there was no stopping me. Except, to watch a movie or TV show on this amazing screen. Is large, but not bulky (depending on your case). And, it does not spontaneously combust!

    The Huawei Nexus 6P is a terrific buy , worth much more than Best Buy charges. I am writing this review on my 6P now and the keyboard is so easy to use since the screen is wider than most smartphones. A very good investment and a keeper.

      Hello AntiAnonymous, we are thrilled to hear that your Huawei Nexus 6P device is working to your liking. The keyboard features SwiftKey, once a paid app, now free for the Nexus 6P via the Google Play Store. Your Nexus is quicker and more secure with a fingerprint sensor. Placed on the back of your device to compliment the way you naturally hold it, one touch will turn on your phone and unlock your apps for smooth, easy access. Instead of a password, only your unique fingerprint can access your email and photos, and purchases. We appreciate your review and thanks for choosing Huawei! (NS) HuaweiCustomerCare

    Pretty much te best phone I've ever owned. Was a little large at first, but don't even notice it now. Only downside is the voicemail notification on Verizon.... not the standard notification, it sends you a weird text when you get a VM. Other than that, it's amazing

    Worst Phone Experience Ever

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Do not buy this phone! It has since been discovered it is a product with two known defects that will render it useless. Huawei accepts no responsibility for it, Google Project Fi sends you to Huawei, and Best Buy refuses to get involved. We spent $1600 on three phones, to only a few months later have devices stuck in endless boot loops and battery shutdowns. If this was a car it would have been recalled, but in the age of planned obsolescence it apparently is better business to not care about your customers and hope for the next sucker. Never again will I buy a Huawei product, and I'll be taking my electronics purchases elsewhere than Best Buy.
