Conflicted as to which one to get. Had a white Nexus 5. Currently have the black OPO.


Thinking of going the black/blue color for the Nexus 6.
 
I'm not sure but probably white because I dislike blue. Thankfully it's Black in front and I'll likely use a Spigen case. Thin and light it's just right for a little protection.
 
I'm most likely going to throw a case on mine, so the colour won't matter much to me. But I'll probably get a blue one.

No love for white I see.

As boring as it can be always buying the same color, I do miss black.

Blue is my least favorite color... so I'm going WAAAAY out of my comfort zone and selecting white.

But as you so aptly put it, with a case it won't matter that much.

The good news for me is the front appears to be black no matter which color one buys, so I'll recover from the trauma of white...Ha..Ha... :eek:
 
I must admit my s3 has served me very well but the n6 will be my next phone if I can get over its size. Something tells me once I use it for a week you would not be able to get it out of my hands. Blue all the way.

The HTC ONE MAX is very similar in overall dimensions to the NEXUS 6:

Google Nexus 6 vs HTC One max - Phone specs comparison

You should be able to find a SPRINT/VERIZON/BestBuy store that has a demo model for comparison before the NEXUS 6 is available.

One item of note:
The HTC ONE MAX is 1oz+ heavier than the NEXUS 6,& believe me,it will make a difference in overall feel/etc....
My OPPO N1 is virtually the same weight as the HTC ONE MAX & while I usually don't mind the extra heft,there are times I wish it were a bit lighter.

Trust me,once you've used a phone w/this screen size,there's virtually no looking back........................ ;)

Thanks for the tip.
 
I use the one max and I find it, umm, interesting that 1 ounce will break a sweat on people. No disrespect to anyone but we are talking about an ounce?

I was waiting/expecting for this exact comment from someone.

Whether it's the actual feel-in-hand of the extra 1oz. or the effect of it otherwise (in a handbag/purse/pants pocket), a seemingly negligible 1 extra ounce may Break A Sweat,virtually or otherwise,for some.

In my experience,which is definitely out of the mainstream/norm,work requires that I carry a work phone/2-way radio & associated work-related keys.
Add a wallet & 6oz+ phone to the equation & you're looking at any means to shed an ounce or two anywhere you can.

True it is rather interesting.

Along this same kind of thinking ie: ergonomics... while I respect buyers and their preferences, I must admit I'm particularly miffed at low egregious writers / reviewers have been towards Nexus.

When calling the Nexus 6... GIANT, MASSIVE, or other descriptive terms in the same article they also talk about the iPhone 6 + without using such terms, thereby making the iPhone sound very manageable unlike the overly huge Nexus. It's been very obvious in many articles that these people are heavily favoring and pandering to Apple.

While nothing new, in this particular product launch cycle they're really going to great lengths to dampen any enthusiasm for Android. I'm certainly not promoting one over the other, but rather I only look for fair unbiased reporting so as to not make one appear grossly inferior as these reports do.
