Ordered my 32GB Midnight Blue on Dec. 1st and then was given a "leaves the warehouse by 12/17/14". I was curious if it would ship early because when I bought my N5 on 11/15/13 it stated it would leave the warehouse on 11/26 however I received it at my home on 11/20. My question is for those out there that might have also purchased their N6 on 12/01 in the Play Store, do you show the same release date of 12/17/14 as I do? I chatted with a G rep and they couldn't tell me much, so I'm just afraid I will not receive my phone. I was hoping to get it sooner than stated.

Edit: Well here it is...12/15 and still nothing from the Play Store....still shows "Leaves warehouse by 12/17" ooouuuugh!

Is the native Android experience not what you were looking for? The reason that I want an N6 is so I don't have to find a ROM to get rid of the manufacturer fud.

Are you on 5.01 yet? Could be you need to update.

Yes, as soon as I pulled the phone out of the box and connected to WiFi, I got the update.

Edit: Of note, I just took my N5 and restored to stock using WUG's Toolkit (giving it to my wife) and as soon as it was complete I also got the 5.0.1 update.

Man I've been watching your posts and have been hoping you would get yours, I know my wait was killing me. I even had to go to UPS to pick it up cuz they wouldn't change delivery to my work and I didn't want it left at my front door with nobody home. Now that I have mine, I really feel bad for you, phone is amazing and you shouldn't have to wait this long to receive it. I hope you get it soon....you're gonna love it!!

My phone arrived this morning, a nice early Xmas present. :)

How long did people leave it on charge before using it?
About three minutes. ;)

Seriously, with the turbo charger, it was reporting full in less than an hour.

Try to put it down long enough to spend some time with your family. I know it's hard. :D

Can anyone who's experienced the T-Mobile monthly equipment charge tell me if there is an extra tax addon or service charge or anything that would be applied on a monthly basis in addition to the quoted device amount? Thanks!
I ordered a blue 32GB Nexus 6 for my wife online from T-Mobile. Had to pay shipping and sales tax but no other fees or service charges. Opted to make 24 interest-free payments of $27.08 which will be added right into the monthly bill. Placed the order on the 22nd and it should get here Monday by UPS standard ground.

I've always ordered Nexus stuff from Google until now. Went through T-Mobile this time because they had it in stock, the phone is identical to one from Google, I could finance it interest-free, T-Mobile will add WiFi calling to it sometime next month and I've been with T-Mobile for 17 years.
