[quote=evolusd]I’m eyeing the Nexus 6P to replace my HTC One M9. I’m a big fan of stereo speakers on the front as I watch lots of vids sans headphones.[/quote]
The 6P is ok, not bad, it’s just old. It’s one of the phones i use for testing.it’s wifi/bluetooth works ok. It’s one of Huawei’s first main phones.
Whatever you do, do NOT get the Nexus 5X, it’s a really really shitty phone when it comes to connectivity. When you try to discover WIFI devices or Bluetooth devices, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t. It’s especially bad if there are lots of devices nearby. You might see nothing, and then if you search and scan again, you see them again.
The Nexus 5 (discontinued) is actually a very reliable phone. Unfortunately, it’s discontinued and it will no longer support any O/S past Marshmallow.
Google is suppose to be coming up with a new set of phones soon running N. I haven’t seen them myself. Most new phones come out during the october-november timeframe, right in time for the holiday sales, along with most other electronic devices. So unless you are in a rush, I would wait until around that time.
