I hope they make one. Spigen does have a thin fit case that has the matte texture for the 6P

The Ringke slim was my favourite on my Note 3. Best feeling next to raw without a case.

Ordered a graphite 6P. Hoping the frost comes back in stock so I can cancel the graphite and order a frost before they ship out on Nov. 12th...

Ringke Slim Armour for the Nexus 5 is the best case in terms of look and feel.

Hoping that they make something similar for this.

This one is nice. Hopefully a Ringke slim version will have edges for top and bottom like this Spigen case.

I don't think those cables are compatible.

Did anyone receive their 50 Google play credit?

mikroft, cancel your order and buy the one monkeywrench posted or even the one ghostrider posted. i have the adopted slim case, its not worth the $25.

im personally waiting for a UAG case to come out. loved that case on my s6. it looks rugged and doesn't add too much bulk.

I am sure for charging those cables should be fine. I always a USB hub charger for all of my other devices anyways and they have no issues (other than 1+1 which only charge up to 97% till I set the phone to air plane mode).

lol if you looked into it, they aren't following Type C 1.1 specifications. In particular their using wrong resistors which can lead to damage on the Type A side. I would advise not plugging them into a laptop since it's a bit more valuable. Chargers/hubs not a big deal I guess.

Anyone can confirm CA with Nexus 6P works on Roger network?

These are the specs for the North American model..

GSM/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900MHz
UMTS/WCDMA: B1/2/4/5/8
CDMA: BC0/1/10
LTE (FDD): B2/3/4/5/7/12/13/17/25/26/29/30
LTE (TDD): B41
CA DL: B2-B2, B2-B4, B2-B5, B2-B12, B2-B13, B2-B17, B2-B29, B4-B4, B4-B5, B4-B13, B4-B17, B4-B29, B41-B41


Rogers apparently runs CA on B4-12 which isnt listed as one but the Nexus 5X supports B4-12... which is weird.. lol
Anyone who has the Nexus 6P and on Rogers can confirm it works not? When you look at the signal bar, does it say LTE+ or LTEA?

I asked google support and got two answers. One yes (email) and one no (live chat). We'll see what happens in the next few days but I doubt they're going to give the credit.

@the poster last page who recommended the Ringke slim for the 5x, I almost bought it but reviews show that it leaves scratches on the matte surface.

To follow up, the rep told me even though the $50 preorder bonus was advertised on the Canadian 5x and 6p website, in the fine print it says USA only lol. Also jealous of their nexus protect.

Otherwise i'm pleased with my 5x. Only time it lags is with snapchat but that's with almost every android phone. I had a china Ulefone Betouch2 which performs just as well if not better, but I couldn't get over the phablet size.
