Hmm, o que é que havemos de fazer para resolver os problemas de aquecimento e fraca performance de bateria destes smartphone de 500€?

Ah, já sei, vamos fazer com que os utilizadores utilizem este ecrã de 6" com um quarto da resolução nativa!



Simplesmente ridículo.

Existe algum acordo entre eles, só pode...no Batman tambem não diziam que se jogasses numa resolucao inferior nao tinhas tantos problemas?

The Nexus 6 Gets a Huge Price Cut in the UK

Want to upgrade your smartphone and missed the recent price cuts? Well, it may be for the best. Motorola did slash its prices a while ago, making its Moto X up for grabs at £229 for the 16GB version and £269 for the 32GB version. Nexus 6 also saw a slight £80 cut, bringing it down to £399 for the 32GB version and £469 for the 64GB version. But I know it was still too steep, so I don’t think it drew a lot of attention.
The recent price cuts comes from the Google Store, where the Nexus 6 has now hit an all-time low price. You can grab it for £304 for the 32GB model and £379 for the 64 GB model. Now that’s a huge price drop from the previous £479 and £549 price tags it previously had.
The only problem here is that we don’t know if the price cut is temporary or permanent. The safe bet is that if you have the money now, it’s time to clear out your account and buy it before it jumps back to its original price. In my opinion, the flashgrip is really worth it for what it has to offer and with a price tag such as the one above, you will definitely be making a smart investment.
Thank you Endgadget for providing us with this information

Take A Look At The Motorola Nexus 6 With A Fingerprint Sensor

With Google partnering up with Motorola for last year’s Nexus 6 launch, we saw a device that was quite different from previous Nexus smartphone launches. Firstly, the device came with a heftier price tag, which led several loyal Nexus fans to question whether Google itself had given in and was trying to become a part of the flagship race. Well, that’s all in the past, and speaking of the past today we’ve managed to get our hands on several Nexus 6 prototype images that show the device with a fingerprint sensor.

Here’s A Nexus 6 Prototype With A Fingerprint Sensor For Your Pleasure

Prior to its launch, we saw several quarters speak up about a fingerprint sensor on the Nexus 6. But owing to supplier issues, the plan was scrapped and we saw a device without a fingerprint sensor on board, which makes the Nexus 6 somewhat handicapped when competing with current Android flagships. After all, specifications play a very important role in the Android world, and nearly every top tier Android smartphone has a fingerprint sensor as well.





But looking at the pace things are changing, Google itself is evolving with Android M now expected to introduce several critical new features into the mix. Google’s latest Android will be coming with native fingerprint sensor support on board, something which should further boost more and more smartphone manufacturers to introduce the much popular feature in their devices. And since this year’s Nexus also appears to be coming with a fingerprint sensor, we’d say that the item was on the software giant’s mind for quite a while.




Nexus devices have always been popular with die hard Android fans owing to the pure version of Android they carry, which provides the best experience to some. And while the Nexus 6 might become a thing of the past soon, its interesting to take a look at what may have been nevertheless. Thoughts? Let us know what you think in the comments section below and stay tuned for more.

Unlocked Nexus 6 Is As Cheap As Nexus 5 Was On Launch; New Nexus Incoming?

Previously, we reported that the upcoming Nexus from LG would be named Nexus 5X, and was expected to sport a dual-camera setup, coupled with a Snapdragon 808. However, looks like the upcoming device could be announced very soon because Nexus 6, the 5.9 inch Snapdragon 805 powerhouse has its price tag reduced from absolutely ridiculous, to absolutely affordable if you take the price/performance ratio in to account.

Nexus 6 32GB Will Only Set You Back For $349, The 64GB Model Will Be The Better Purchase For Consumers

We came across Amazon and saw that the 32GB storage model of Nexus 6 costs just $349.99. In short, you will end up saving $300, and what is even more exciting about this is that it comes unlocked. One of the primary reasons why Nexus 6 became extremely unpopular amongst the masses was because Google switched from rolling out a very affordable and capable Nexus 5, to an exorbitantly priced Nexus 6.
After the priced slash, the phablet sized powerhouse is now as affordable as the base storage model of what Nexus 5 was at launch, but we have a feeling that it is a bit too late to make these adjustments now. However, consumers who feel that 32GB is far too low of a storage count to be present on a smartphone that features a Snapdragon 805 can always opt to purchase the 64GB model, which only costs $399.99; $50 higher than the base model, and every bit as powerful.



Supplementing the Snapdragon 805 SoC, is 3GB of RAM, along with a very crisp resolution, gargantuan form factor and best of all; you will receive timely updates for Google’s next update, which at this point, is going to be Android Marshmallow. Since Nexus 6 is sporting Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chipset, the smartphone will be compatible with the company’s Quick Charge 2.0 feature, which is able to charge mobile devices’ batteries from 0-60 percent in just 15 minutes.
There is also a 13MP Sony IMX214 rear camera sensor present, which is extremely capable seeing as how Nexus 6 is a previous generation smartphone. After the price slash, do you think Nexus 6 is going to be worthy purchase, or has Google executed this strategy a bit too late? Let us know your thoughts as we wait for the imminent arrival of Nexus 5X.

Amazon.com has a great deal on Motorola-made Nexus 6

Drops 32GB version to US $200, 64GB to US $260
Amazon.com currently sell Google's previous flagship Motorola-made Nexus 6 smartphone for a rather incredible US $200 for the 32GB and US $260 for the 64GB version.

While it was selling for US $370 just a few months ago, Amazon.com has launched a rather impressive Black Friday deal, offering the unlocked Google Nexus 6 for US $200 for the 32GB version and US $260 for the 64GB version. Spotted by Androidpolice.com, the offer will probably last until the stock is depleted.
While it might not be as hot as the Huawei-made Nexus 6P, the Motorola-made Nexus 6 is still a decent device with its 6-inch QHD AMOLED screen, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 805 SoC and a metal frame around a curved body. On the other hand, Nexus 6 has a few more things to offer compared to the Nexus 6P as its 13-megapixel camera has OIS and it is also water resistant.
The deal is limited to Amazon.com and there is no similar deal on any of the European Amazon sites, at least not so far but if you are in the States, you might want to check it out.

Google has quietly stopped selling the Nexus 6

Google has chosen to quietly discontinue the Motorola Nexus 6, which launched at the end of 2014 but failed to really live up to expectations both in terms of sales and acclaim. From this point forward, Google’s first oversized Nexus won’t be available to buy directly through the Play Store, leaving you with this year’s Nexus 5x and Nexus 6p.
If you want last year’s Nexus, you may still be able to find it at certain retailers, though once stock runs out, that will be it as Google isn’t going to continue manufacturing the handset.

The Nexus 6 was an interesting device for Google, prior to its release the Nexus line was seen as the best bang for buck Android brand, with stock Android straight from Google being a highlight feature. However, the Nexus 6 was the first step away from that, with a 5.7-inch handset, which launched at a much higher price point compared to the previous Nexus smartphones.
Since then, Google has backtracked slightly, bringing back LG and the Nexus 5 for 2015, though it has also kept the Nexus 6 around to serve the phablet market as well.

Nexus 6 Is Going For The Same Price As OnePlus X – Check Out The Deal Right Here

Nexus 6 might be a whole generation old, but if it’s highly expensive price tag was the same as it is today, it would have been branded as a commercial failure. While it did end up as a failure, its current discounted price is definitely something that you should look into.

Nexus 6 Costs Just $249.99 For The 32GB Model – Check Out The Deal Right Here

On Amazon, there are always numerous deals that go unchecked, but we managed to see a Nexus 6 32GB model go for the price of $249.99, which is the same price that a OnePlus X is being sold for. In addition, the behemoth sized handset also features a 64GB on-board storage model, and it is being sold for $299.99; just $50 more compared to the 32GB model. According to the details present on the website, there is absolutely no contract involved, and the color scheme is going to be midnight blue.
As for the specifications, they are quite impressive, particularly now that the price of the handset has been reduced by more than 50 percent from its original $649.99, which we should remind you, was for the 32GB model. Nexus 6 comes with a Snapdragon 805 SoC, which is running a quad-core Krait 450 processor at a speed of 2.7GHz. In addition, Nexus 6 also features 3GB of RAM, and a QHD display being rendered on its massive 5.96 inch screen size. Thanks to featuring a pure Android skin, you can expect the best overall experience from a Nexus smartphone, and this one is definitely not going to be any exception.

There is a 3,220mAh battery present underneath the hood, and we expect that with continuous software updates, battery life will improve. There is also a 13MP rear camera sensor, which has the capability to record 4K videos at a steady 30FPS. Furthermore, there is also an option to record slow-mo videos, if you are into that kind of thing. For a $249.99 smartphone, we can say that Nexus 6 is definitely a great deal if you want high-end specs that also go easy on your wallet. Since Nexus mobile devices are void of expandable storage slots, we highly recommend that you place your investment in the 64GB model, since most consumers cannot get around to using 32GB of storage.
We have placed the links below, so tell us what you thought about this great deal on Amazon.

• Motorola Nexus 6 32GB
• Motorola Nexus 6 64GB

Motorola admits that the Nexus 6 was too big

Back in 2014, Google made a huge change to its Nexus smartphone release lineup with the Motorola-built Nexus 6. The device had a massive 6-inch screen and aimed to capture the high-end market, which was a step away from the cheaper, sensibly sized Nexus devices released in previous years. Now after some time has passed, Motorola has admitted that mistakes were made with the phone.
Speaking with TechRadar, Adrienne Hayes, Chief Marketing Officer at Motorola said: “You learn as you go. It was right about this time period that we were jumping screen sizes so quickly. I think it was one of those where we were like ‘is it screen size going to continue to go up?’ I think, unfortunately, that was one of the products that was going to be the example of no, it’s not. So now we know.”

However, while Motorola did build the Nexus 6 back in 2014, some of the blame lies with Google as they wanted the larger screen size. Motorola could have built the device to be the same size of the Moto X, which had a 4.7-inch display and had a very similar design all around compared to the Nexus 6 2014.
That said, while the Nexus 6 didn’t sell too well, Motorola would be open to collaborating on the Nexus project again at some point in the future: “I don’t know whether we’ll do another Nexus device, but we would be happy to. It was a good experience.”
