It’s just about difficult to get the Nexus 6 and not make a remark on its size. Pressing a 6 inch presentation, its one of the biggest cell phone screens available, and in the no so distant past would have been viewed as a little tablet instead of a take-all around telephone. How times change.

While there’s no denying its enormous, it doesn’t feel as absurd in the hand as maybe it once would have. Extra large screen cell phones, for example, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and all the more as of late the Apple iPhone 6 Plus have just helped bond the wide screen drift as digging in for the long haul.

The Nexus 6 is Google’s exertion, however does it demonstrate that anything they can do, it can improve… or simply greater?

Outline and construct

The Nexus 6 itself is made by Motorola, which places it in great hands if the latest Moto X is anything to pass by. Truth be told, it looks to some extent like its stablemate, with the same bended back board and indented M logo that gives the ideal spot to your finger to rest in when you hold it.

We enjoyed the outline on the Moto X and we like it here in its greater configuration as well. It’s an entirely plastic configuration, yet feels well-constructed and solid, accessible in a decision of blue or white. It doesn’t have the premium outline of the iPhone 6 Plus then, however numerous will think that its delicately adjusted back board and level edges less demanding to hold, especially at this size.

Discussing the iPhone 6 Plus, there’s truly very little in the middle of it and the Nexus 6 regarding physical size, regardless of the iPhone’s screen being 0.5in littler. The Nexus 6 is positively more extensive, yet stature astute there’s scarcely anything in it. In case you’re content with the extent of the wide screen iPhone, you’ll have no protests here.

Yes, you may well end up utilizing two hands to content – just the greatest hands will have the capacity to extend from one side of the screen to the next agreeably, however then that is very nearly a given with a gadget this size. In case you’re truly uncertain, we’d pop into a shop that stocks it for a test run before you make the plunge.

There are not very many physical controls on the Nexus 6, put something aside for the furrowed force catch and volume rocker on the right hand side. The 3.5mm earphone jack is set in the center along the highest point of the handset, with the nano SIM card opening beside it.

There’s no microSD card space here however, which is a disgrace – you’ll have to pick admirably somewhere around 32GB and 64GB when you purchase it to guarantee it fulfills your capacity needs.

Handling and memory

In the engine, the Nexus 6 packs a standout amongst the most capable chipsets as of now accessible in cellular telephones, involving Qualcomm’s 2.7GHz Snapdragon 805 quad-center processor, the Adreno 420 GPU and 3GB of RAM (the new HTC One M9 and Samsung Galaxy S5 may very well pip the Nexus on paper).

It absolutely appears to do its part, and the Nexus 6 feels snappy and responsive when zooming around menus, multitasking or playing amusements. Indeed with truly realistic concentrated applications, for example, Gameloft’s Asphalt 8: Airborne, we don’t experience the ill effects of falters or long load times anytime – its smooth and steady all through.

Battery

Such an extra large screen needs an OK estimated battery to power it, and luckily the Nexus 6 packs a 3220mAh force pack to do simply that. Besides, it packs Qualcomm’s QuickCharge 2.0, importance you can get up to six hours of charge from a drained battery in only 15 minutes.

This isn’t the first occasion when we’ve seen this gimmick, yet its among the first times we’ve seen the charger needed to make utilization of it included in the crate as standard. Remote charging is additionally accessible utilizing Qi-good extras, however you’ll need to purchase these independently on the off chance that you need to take advantage.

The cell’s execution is a great one as well. Our battery once-over test, running a 720p feature with wi-fi on at half splendor, saw it enduring around 10 hours – coordinating any semblance of the iPhone 6 Plus – and in consistent regular utilization we figured out how to receive around a day’s use in return.

Display and Screen

Thus to that screen. At 5.96in, its simply shouting to be utilized for viewing movies, with a Quad HD 1440 x 2560 determination and 493ppi putting it straight up there with the screens of the best telephones available, on paper in any event. Being used, it can’t exactly match up to the Galaxy Note 4 or iPhone 6 Plus’ feature execution, regardless of its determination advantage over the last. Anyway it provides for it a decent go.

Watch a full HD cut and the screen looks bounty sufficiently sharp with both content and pictures. It’s not until its contrasted and Apple’s handset that you perceive a portion of the better subtle elements are a bit delicate in correlation. Scene scenes don’t have the same profundity to them and compositions, in the same way as the hide on Paddington Bear, aren’t exactly too figured it out.

The Nexus 6’s shading palette positively has a hotter tone to it than the iPhone as well, yet which you lean toward will be down to individual decision. We’d say the iPhone most likely simply pips it concerning total offset, however there’s no questioning the wealthier, more energetic tone makes an outwardly noteworthy picture that is punchy and captivating instead of enormously unnatural.

Regarding the matter of difference, its a blended sack. The Nexus 6’s whites are on the velvety side, even in menus and website pages, significance they don’t pop as much when in dull scenes – however blacks do dive deep and are adequately definite to boot.

We viewed several motion pictures on its screen and it didn’t feel odd to do as such – the 6in screen is to some degree a sweetspot for extraordinary versatile film marathons, and implied we didn’t even feel the need to cast it to our TV once we returned home.

Android Operating System 

Beside its expansive screen, one of the greatest ideas of the Nexus 6 is its consideration of Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the case. As a Google gadget, it is obviously vanilla Android with no changes, increments or skins, and effectively the most pleasant approach to appreciate Android on any gadget.

This is the first occasion when we’ve seen it on a telephone, tailing its presentation on the Nexus 9 tablet, and its not an inconsequential update – especially in the way it looks, additionally in execution stakes. Android is working harder than any time in recent memory to inspire, and we like it.

It feels like a comparable move to the one iOS took when taking the skeuomorphic switch from iOS 6 to iOS 7 – symbols are less difficult, hues are bolder and the general appearance of it is compliment, stripped back and object free.

Organizers now show up as round circles, there are inconspicuous new movements for opening and shutting menus and the three principle delicate keys for route have been given a geometrical makeover as well.

Late applications now show up in a rolodex-style realistic called ‘Overview’, providing for you greater sneak peaks of the applications and screens open than before (you’ll perceive a hefty portion of Google’s own applications have each been doled out a shading to make their tabs recognizable in the line-up), and the application plate now sits on another white foundation, looking through to your home screen and giving the inclination that your applications and methods are just layered on top of each other, as opposed to new screen after new screen.

Warnings now show up on, and are noteworthy through, the lock-screen (however this is totally customization on an application by-application premise) and there’s additionally another ‘Priority Mode’, which is Google’s own ‘Do Not Disturb’ setting.

You can set it for a certain measure of time, from minutes to days to inconclusively, and when initiated it will permit just individuals and applications on your “Need” rundown to trouble you with warnings, calls or messages. It can be flipped on and off by pressing the volume rocker.

At long last, client records have been added to Android Lollipop, which albeit to some degree more valuable on a tablet than a telephone, implies you can have a few separate clients with totally individual homescreens and application choices, on one gadget. This may demonstrate valuable when giving over your telephone to the children for playing amusements, for instance.

Doubtlessly, the unadulterated Android experience has constantly surpassed that of any maker changed offering, and this close by the Lollipop redesign serves as a major offering point for the Nexus 6.

Audio System / Sound

In the matter of music, Google’s all-tolerant nature means there’s more extensive document similarity than on an iPhone, with FLAC playback up to 24-bit/96kHz upheld. Indeed along these lines, its music abilities miss the mark regarding that on the iPhone 6, failing to possess the level of elements and timing that we love on its opponent.

There’s drive to its character, however the association isn’t as tight and notes don’t convey the same level of profundity and element nuance. Its likewise clear that its presentation isn’t as exact as the iPhone’s, with driving edges of the notes in the piano introduction somewhat delicate and adjusted, losing a touch of their effect simultaneously.

Camera

The Nexus 6 packs a 13MP cam, which has seen a few upgrades to the one included on the Moto X, having a superior sensor, optical picture adjustment and a more extensive f/2.0 gap. Nonetheless, in spite of it being an enormous change on the poor cam of the Nexus 5, its execution still disappoints when contrasted and the best at this level.

On a splendid day, it will deliver sharp, clean and generally decently adjusted shots with a lot of point of interest, yet detract it from its safe place and there are a couple of niggles. The self-adjust can take eventually, especially in dubious or low lighting.

Include HDR in with the general mish-mash and it deteriorates, with a few seconds required for centering and preparing – something the iPhone 6 Plus does pretty much right away. Its shading palette is like that of its films, and inclines towards the warm side, with brilliant hues maybe more dynamic than is sensible.

In low light, there’s more commotion there than we’d need as well, yet include the glimmer to battle it and the outcomes can be excessively brilliant, failing to possess the gentler, more characteristic impact something like the iPhone’s True Tone blaze has.

For feature, the Nexus 6 incorporates 4K shooting at 30fps close by its 1080p mode, yet likewise to its stripped back stills cam, the feature side of things is additionally kept moderately straightforward. There’s no slo-mo or hyperlapse peculiarities, for example, you’ll discover on its rivals, however there are dependably applications you can download on the off chance that its a peculiarity you’ll truly miss.

And after that there’s the matter of cost. For so long the Nexus extent has spoken to premium telephones at a reasonable cost. Not long from now, its maybe somewhat less along these lines, yet only in light of the fact that it isn’t £200 doesn’t mean it isn’t sensibly evaluated in its market.

The 32GB form is accessible SIM free for £499, with the 64GB costing simply £50 more at £549. Contrast that with the Samsung Note 4 32GB at £599 and the iPhone 6 Plus 64GB (there is no 32GB choice) at £700, and it doesn’t appear to be so terrible when its all said and done.
