Yup I have, hasn't really helped. I did contact Google a few weeks ago and they mentioned factory reset. Seems this also happened to my Nexus 6 a year in or so. I hope they will let me rma it.

I'm about to chat Google today and see if they will replace my 6p. If I get a pixel I would go for a 128gb option but I honestly don't want to pay $938.
I'd like to keep my 6p until the pixel 2 but at this rate I don't think it will do so well battery wise.
I notice a lot of draining where I didn't have before especially when streaming Spotify through blutooth in my car. On marshmallow I would stream for like 30-40 min and by the time I would get to work I'd have 91% or so left.The more and more I use my Nexus 6P, the closer I get to downsizing. These things are just too big for me anymore. I would consider the new Pixel if it was cheaper. I might grab it once it drops in price a little.
Yikes
I just updated my 6p after holding out to let the 7.0 bugs shake out. Hope I don't see the same thing.

On my 6p Android os is always on the top and I don't think that should be the case. Android system yes since it's usually the system apps and such.mine was fine besides that rando charging issue:/
this is typical usage for me on the Pixel
Do you have to be on a contract for that? I currently am using metro, but I suppose since Google offers financing it's not much different. The price tag is just too much to justify the components minus waterproofing. Not that waterproofing is a big deal to me but if you are going to compete with premium on everything including price, then it should factor in.Heh, ordered one, black regular Pixel, 128GB. TMobile has a promo for $325 off given in monthly credits for 24 months. Am pretty sure I'll still get the monthly credits if I sell it later.
Can't get it all registered for the promo yet, but should have it all done tomorrow morning.

It only cost $285 to make the pixel according to an article I read. Also, it seems they built it in nine months too. There were no speculations or rumors about iPhone 7 being waterproof so I'm sure when Google found out they had already built the pixel and they were probably like oh crap!!

It is, but I feel they kind of rushed with the device. With Google it used to go, be together not the same. So now it kind of feels like they are going the opposite direction. If they had a chip as fast as the iPhone processor that would be very nice. Soon I think they are looking to make their own chip.I mean that bill of materials price is similar to other premium phones of the same pricing, so not sure if that's the greatest justification for it being overpriced.

Even after HTC designed the pixel I think they still aren't doing so well. Their profits were still negative and most of that probably has to do with how they didn't do so well with the HTC 10.I see it as Google discovering what Microsoft did with the Surface (once it found out where the Surface line's true audience was): that, left to its own, an OS ecosystem will devolve. You get the race to the bottom in quality and price as well as high-end vendors who are more interested in "differentiation" (read: difference purely for its own sake) than making the best possible product. You don't need to go full-on Apple and refuse to license your OS, but it helps to make your own hardware as a sort of guiding light for everyone else.
And frankly, the Android market is kind of a shambles. Samsung just took a big hit (even beyond the Note 7 fiasco), Chinese OEMs are successful but mostly in their home country, and companies like HTC, LG and Sony are left fighting for table scraps. HTC may revel in being the hidden brand behind the Pixel simply because it wasn't going to sell many phones otherwise.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Google may buy HTC. It also seems they will release a nexus 7 tablet which will also be made by HTC, sometime in December.
Still early to tell, but I get what Google is going after now being a software and data company. Opening up a store in New York, etc. They have to build a brand like Apple did but I really don't think it will be as strong as apple. Most of the people besides us tech enthusiasts here, rarely ever cared about nexus phones. Most people I know didn't even know it was a phone offered from Google.
For Google to reach popularity among the masses like apple, they really have to be more creative in their design. If they ever manufacture their own processing chip and optimize it like apple does, we may be on to something.
That would be something to take advantage of if I didn't already have the T-Mobile network on metro. My plan over there is $55 a month unlimited everything because I set up a family plan and put my mother and sister on it too.
$70 isn't bad for one phone but after additional fees and taxes it will cost a little more.
Do they just cut you check at the end of the finance period for the $300 difference or does it come off your monthly bill?

As was just mentioned, it's a monthly bill credit. That's the only real catch: for obvious reasons
Sorry did not see your post earlier, I looked but it was a quick scan and I missed it. Glad the deal also works for financed phones. I wished Google Fi did something similar, but then again Google Fi is cheaper if you do not need all that data that you get with an "unlimited plan."Roland, I posted about this on Thursday.
Yes, they offer the promo for financed phones.
