It's just the (to me any way) stupid amount of money that they want for one then that stands in my way. Maybe the old Nexus 5 concept was too cheap for it to last.Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.

+1 when my iPhone broke the cheapest solution was a second hand nexus 6p. That will keep me going to the iPhone 8 arrives.Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostIt's just the (to me any way) stupid amount of money that they want for one then that stands in my way.

Nexus 5 was where the cheap model started to fall apart. N4 was amazing value for the spec, N5 was good but not really worth upgrading for from the N4.Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostIt's just the (to me any way) stupid amount of money that they want for one then that stands in my way.

N6 was a step change away from that model though. And I'm now having more issues with my N6P than any other phone - drops from 15% battery to 0% in seconds (known issue) and yesterday it spent 90 minutes rebooting constantly.
With the S8 delayed and the OnePlus 3T not being in stock for the 128gb model I might just go back to the OnePlus 2 and wait.First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. But Gandhi never had to deal with HMRC

Motorola makes the Moto android phones which are cheap, and made the Nexus 6. As the Nexus 6 is a phablet but the Moto phones aren't they probably wanted to ensure there was a market for their own cheaper Moto phones that didn't overlap.Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostIt's just the (to me any way) stupid amount of money that they want for one then that stands in my way.

As Google partners with a different manufacturer with each handset release once you have started to go down that avenue of more expensive handsets you are going to continue if it is successful.
Having had a Moto G for a few months I found the bloatware on that far less annoying than when I had a Samsung. My only issue was the Moto phone was under powered."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
