How many folks own the 32gb 6p? I have the 64gb myself I think it's the perfect amount of storage.

64 todo lo dia

for picture backup, Google photos does automatic backup and unlimited storage (they'll compress down to 16 MB if picture size is large).

Also worth checking out are OneDrive and Flickr for backup. Flickr has 1TB and One Drive has like 5GB of storage capacity. The latter reduced from 15GB a little while back.

Google Photos is unlimited capacity as long as you upload images that are not full size (the images still look great, they're just not the original size you took with your phone)

64 was necessary. I usually sit right around 40-45 MB used so no way I could do 32. 64 is the sweet spot for me in phones that don't have removable storage

Same here. I like having all my music on my device. 

 

[don ramon]

i just found out about clipboard actions, which is basically adds a bunch of functions to the clipboard (search, share, etc)

Just got my email, says it should be shipped out on April 1st. Another free year of Netflix code as well

 

[AZwildcats]

I have 64 now but 32 would be fine with me. Anything that's not 16 is fine for me

 

[af1nike]

Pixel C worth a cop at 375?

 

[yeah]

Testing this bad boy

V10 owners, keep your eyes on XDA.

Pixel C worth a cop at 375?

From the reviews, not really

 

[AZwildcats]

Pixel C never made sense to me. I don't know who the intended audience was for it

 

[sreggie101]

Long time, no talk, fellow Droiders.

Still on my S5 Active, and still love it. As discussed before, the lack of expandable memory in the 6 had me skip right on past. I see that expandable memory has returned with the S7. Nice.

Question: will there be an Active 7? You'd think so. Will it have expandable memory?

Next, I was wondering i you guys have any suggestions for online pic storage. I have a Photobucket account, but is there something that appears as an app on my phone but is actually online storage and stores pics as soon as the camera takes the pic or as soon as a pic is downloaded? Like Dropbox, but you only 2 GB free right off the bat with Dropbox.

S5? you get repped cuz that is dedication.

and i also recommend google photos. its an excellent online photo solution, and only will get stronger as google updates it. its my go to photo app.

from what i read its not so much the hardware, but the software isn't ideal for that kind of application. essentially android is more of a phone software, and struggles to translate well on a tablet. now having said that, imo, that really goes for all big tablets android or apple. i think microsoft had the right idea in putting a full desktop OS on a tablet, and aiming to make it entirely tablet friendly with metro (...it sucked tho), where the ios and android is more on the opposite end of the spectrum.

i think a software that kind of finds that middle ground...whatever that looks like, would really strengthen the value of a tablet.


on the other hand, laptops are becoming exceedingly thin, and more energy and power efficient. word to those new macbooks dropping summer 16. throw in multiple usb type c ports and i'd have little reason to justify a tablet in general. (i.e. those thin macbooks vs an ipad pro or a surface)

 

[iamdef]

Pixel C should have been Chrome OS imo. Making it the mobile variety kinda makes sense, giving it more capabilities but that's only because Chrome is so crippled by not being open to android apps and only chrome extensions basically. I enjoy the simplicity of my wife's CB but man it is pitiful

 

[stork]

are there rumors of a 7P this year? I'm thinking about getting a 6P near future, but I don't to buy something that's out dated in 6 months.

HTC are making the Nexus device(s) for the next three years

 

[AZwildcats]

That's a shame, I thought Huawei did a great job with the 6p. Hopefully the HTC Nexus is on point, I will be looking to come back to android sometime later this year.

 

[hoosier bad boy 11]

I don't understand how htc got nexus the 6p was so good with nexus.

 

[mastamind89]

Damn, really want a Nexus. Not saying HTC is a deal breaker....but damn

 

[ohokalright]

*looks at nexus 9 fiasco *

lol, oh google.

need to stop playing and put xiaomi on da map like they did huawei.

nexus redmi 3 and redmi note 3 pro :x

I went with the 128. Kept having buyers remorse with the 32 and 64 before even buying it. Just remember never having any space on my s5 and wanted to avoid that.

 

[rillo561]

Meh, it's all rumors at this point with the new Nexus phones.

 

[leroythegreat38]

Can anybody recommend me a good bluetooth keyboard for the 2nd generation Nexus 7?

 

[stork]

not exactly what I asked

i take it there's nothing confirmed.

I just found out about this LTE+ thing, which is annoying because I have a note 4 on sprint

phone is terrific, minus sprints weak *** network, most likely switch to verizon at the end of the year.

I like to rock the same phone for ~2-3 years before upgrading.
