Can't decide on color. Feedback requested! - Nexus 6P General

Just wanted to father some feedback from those who have the devise. What color did you get? Do you like it? Do you wish you went with a different color?
Im also curious about fingerprints and discoloration.
Thanks all! I'm ordering tomorrow morning and just having a tough time making a decision.

Grabbed the frost white model and I couldn't be happier. The white is classy, clean, and the metallic rim/finishes look amazing. I've seen other colors in person and this looked the most impressive.

I ordered graphite and I love every second of it. The phone is slippery and you do notice some fingerprints, but I ended up just getting a case for it.
It all comes down to personal preference really. They all feel the same, just the color is different. I used to have a Dinc2 which was white, but I wasn't a fan. My N5 was black and I loved it so I got the same for this phone.

No, but to be honest it was only out of a case for the first 4 days.. I'm probably not the best to comment on discoloration. Sorry!

Graphite is fingerprint magnet. Aluminum is classy but boring. White feels cheap, especially when looking at the wrapping around the sides. If you go naked or plan to install skings get aluminum, if you will use a transparent case then get the white.

I agree with all that except when using a skin. I think graphite looks best with skins, especially darker ones. The edges and fingerprint scanner blend in easier with graphite. I think graphite is boss, it was the one I kept after seeing all 3 in person.

You are right. I left out the graphite because as I said, it gets lots of fingerprints and scratches are more visible but yes if you plan to put case and stuff graphite is great too. All colors are great lol, cannot go wrong with either.

I wanted graphite and was disappointed that I couldn't buy it when I had the money. But, went ahead and ordered the aluminum one and couldn't be happier. I just put a black/slate speck candyshell and it looks great
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I have graphite.
I like it. If I did it again, I'd buy the aluminum.

Get the Aluminum color it is HOT!!!!!

I'd buy graphite all over again. Fingerprints aren't bad at all, I don't use a case and the phone looks hot.
Id be cautious of white. Many white phones don't age we'll and get that yellowing. Aluminum looks solid but not my thing.

I have the aluminum color now but I ordered the white one and will decide what color I like better. Pictures don't cut it for me, I have to see them in person.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I had a graphite myself, and wife has frost. Graphite was more slippery for sure. Ended up swapping that for frost as well.
That said, graphite looked great.

I've had all three in our house. I had the black but returned and ordered the aluminum. The black one had little chips in it when I first received it. Initially, they didn't bother me but after a couple days I kept staring at them cuz it was bright white underneath. Otherwise it looked great. My wife's frost also looks nice but the chamfered edges are extra shiny and the tiny scratches are noticeable after a while. I use the aluminum one now. The microscratches aren't as noticeable on the edges. And the tiny chips aren't as noticeable either (make no mistake though, they are there lol). If the graphite didn't have the chips that would've been the one I stuck with, but as it is, the aluminum keeps my ocd tendencies at bay.

For me its Aluminum, but the other colors are nice as well. Also, there are cases in many colors to make anyone happy!
Go to your local pub for a few drinks might help your decision!

I ordered it based on the reviews.. I hope it's as good as the reviews say.
I already posted about this case

Nice! I couldn't tell if it was a bumper type case or not from the pics. But that's exactly what i was looking for. (Keeps heat down)
Just ordered it yesterday. Hope it's good.
Also ordered 1 for myself, saw this from the other thread. I am however using Spigen Spg but since it doesn't fully cover the sides, I got this one. Basing on the screenshots, this is the right case for me.
Ill agree. I'm also using this case. Love it. It also fits in the Pdair vertical leather belt holster (found on Amazon) perfectly while in the boxwave. Added protection and great way to carry on your belt/pants.

Not a bumper. It's got a frosted back.

i just recieved the generic version of this case from ebay for 8 bux same style and everything. i have the white with clear backing. the white is kind of has a matte finish thats tpu and does get dirty pretty fast. the clear part is some type of hard plastic. ill take some snaps shots after work.
edit:
going over the case fully i have noticed the cut out for the top mic is a little out of place and the cut out for the usb is too small to fit the usb carger. also the clear back part picked up scratches way too easy.
works with the aluminum metal back cover.

I bought the same case. As to your screen shield, I've wondered if that brand is any good. Care to share your thoughts on the screen shield?

I always use antiglare screen protectors but this one is a bit on the thicker side. It went on very easy and no bubbles whatsoever but I can add the worst screen protector without bubbles. Having the white surrounding area is new for me. Looks good but for the price I would wait for that Glass coming out from SGP.
Just bought this. Heard it was the damn same as the yoobao. Plus all the good reviews. Can't beat it for 12 bucks

I ordered the Boxwave version in white with a frosted back on Amazon, I can't wait to get it! Anybody had any issues so far with the white plastic getting dirty? Almost bought black for that reason (since the white back would still show through the clear), but I love the all-white look on some of the images I've seen.

Leather flip case

Has anyone found one of these for the dna? Something like this for the dna would be awesome...

I'd suggest searching for J Butterfly cases, since the DNA specifically doesn't have that much stuff out for it. A search on rakuten for "htc j butterfly case" brings up two that are a bit expensive (about $45 base) but stylish.
Hope that helps!
To bring this old topic back up. I have found a leather flip case for the DNA. Nillkin makes it. They come in 3 different colors: black, red, and gray.
Enjoy!

Yes exactly that. More than willing to pay more though. Nobody makes them that's the issue.

If not leather maybe like a political prisoner?
Its a decently nice case for the price. Fits very well. Not slopply put together. It looks like it would be sued but doesn't have the same feel. I say its well worth the $15. I do wish they would make nicer more expensive cases but its not an iPhone so I'm not getting my hopes up.

Observations thus far from owner
I just got the grey one in the mail yesterday and truly, I'm rather undwhelmed. Here are some observations from the past 12+ hours.
1. Case does NOT feel like leather at all as posted previously. Kinda cheap honestly.
2. The cover does not secure itself at all. It kinda just flaps in the wind and slides all over the place. The cover itself seems to be a bit big for the phone itself. Holding the cover tightly to the phone screen leaves 1/8 inch or so hanging off the side. If I set the phone down with the screen up and nothing on top of it, the cover just flaps open. This could be potentially be self-adjusting with use and having the case "break-in" but I have seen other flip covers that did not require this break-in period.
3. The case makes the buttons (power, volume +/-) more difficult to press. The case has proper cut-outs but the cut-outs could have been a bit larger to allow for easier access to the buttons. I really have to get my fingertip into the cut-out to operate the buttons.
I understand that the overall cost of the case was pretty low and people will state that "you get what you pay for" but I had previously purchased the Nillikin slim case in brown and I think I will be going back to that one. The slim case was a measly 8 bucks or so and doesn't have the flip cover, but the overall construction, feel and function of that one seems far superior.
/end $0.02
How about some pictures?
everybody should Email Poetic and beg for a slim line leather flip case.

CruzerLite A2 Case

http://amzn.com/B00AB7VT8Y
Green Androidified A2 Case for HTC Droid DNA
by CruzerLite
I don't normally promote accessories I buy, but I'm going to start so it hopefully answers other's questions. So I bought this case earlier in the week since i work in a dirty and hazardous (to phones) area. I have to keep my phone on me but i always run the risk of dropping it or crushing it. I can't stand using a large bulky case such at the Defender series even though they are robust and perfect for where i work. I like to keep my phone in my pocket so a slim case is perfect. I tried using a skin but i still wanted that extra guard from a rubber case. This case is very tight. Could have been because i have a carbon skin on my phone already but i definitely liked how it fit on the phone. I also had to be very careful cause the corners took the screen protector off. It didn't have raised buttons on the case which was a downfall as it would make it a bit more functional for the average user. However, most DNA users will ether have the USB cover broken off or will use a wireless charger. My wireless charger worked perfect with this case as well.
If you want a case similar to this then go for it. i have no complaints

Is it any easier to press the volume, lock buttons than without the case since it outlines where they are?
I find it easier to find the buttons cause of the ouline of the case. But no easier to push them, about the same effort.
sent from my rooted DNA
I also have this case and I would agree with your assessment. The volume buttons are about the same to press, a little easier to find due to the cutout. The power button is still hard to hit and probably a little harder, I would have liked raised buttons.
I am a repeat customer of Cruzerlite for a reason. Quality and value, and this case is no different than their other products. It is very sleek and slides in and out of my pocket with ease. It does not attract pocket lint either. The back is clear and you can see the notification led through the case. I also like how Andy is on the back instead of some cheezy argyle pattern. Also it does not leave marks like the Verizon tpu case does, which I also own. My only niggle is I wish the cut out for the volume and power buttons were not cut out, as I feel like it does make it easier to push the buttons as they are really flush. The vzw case doesnt have the volume cut outs but its not a deal breaker by any means. At least the holes are big enough to smash your thumb through.

I'm a big Jacksonville Jaguars fan (yeah I know they forever suck) and the teal cruzerlite case looked pretty sick on my Rezound. I got a demo unit for DNA in green and I really hope they seal in the volume rocker port like the vzw tpu case its much better because how flush the buttons are. Also the power button sealed in would be nice. I would buy several cases if they did a revision until then I am sticking with the blue tpu from vzw.

whats the color of your phone, if its black i am waiting for the pictures, site only has pictures from a white phone ....
You might have to probably wait another month to get the cases though, they ship only after feb 7 due to Chinese new year.
Looking for bumper or slim case also. I like the metal look.
I would be a little scared that the metal may wear or damage the plastic underneath. I have only had the phone for 2 days. Anyone have issues with damage or chipped edges on these phones?
Other then that loving the phone so far.
These types of cases usually have foam or rubber on the inside to prevent such issues.

I have to say I was worried about the same thing and have had this phone without a case since it came out. I have never dropped it, never carry keys in the same pocket or anything in there and take meticulous care of this phone. I now have three places that chrome trim is chipped without ever doing anything to it, so as I see it, it can't get worse with adding a case

Buttons being flush on sides others may not like but personally perfect for me. Easy to feel/find in dark but not as accidentally pressed by my father fingers. Latch is on top side, works far better than anticipated really. Lovin' the blue on black. Also, bottom is cut out so charger size issues should be alleviated.

These skins look fantastic and D-Brand has a great track record for this sort of thing.
Go ahead and mess around with the different configurations then post a screenshot.
And post real pictures once you receive your Nexus 6 and brand it! (assuming you plan on using a skin)
I just don't like the selection. They need to create more ...
I want matte dark red
Slickwraps have more options
I like the black carbon, red accents I'm excited for this! Now if they could hurry up with the Nexus 9 skins.

Same here,
I want the back with no cutouts but i dont know how the material will look where the nexus logo is, or the M logo.
If you order it with the cutout you can buy the accent(for the cutout and camera lens) but that way you are gonna have some edge around the cutout.
I want to have the black leather to match my moto 360, but i dont want the sticker unstick where the M logo is.
If the glue is strong it should be okay.
Those samples with the accents look pretty sharp. I'm probably going to use a case for a little while, so I'm going to hold off on the skins for now.

I'm curious how they account for the dimple if you don't get the cutout.

I am thinking the same. As a person who can't stand huge and obnoxious branding, I will get the one which has no cut outs. But, like h0bnail said, the dimple makes me want to see it IRL first.

Same here,
I want the back with no cutouts but i dont know how the material will look where the nexus logo is, or the M logo.
If you order it with the cutout you can buy the accent(for the cutout and camera lens) but that way you are gonna have some edge around the cutout.

I've never had a skin from them peel. I removed one of their skins to put a different color skin on and it was a lot of work to remove and it left 0 residue so you should be fine.
As far as the dimple you can get a separate piece to go in it for $2. I may get a white N6, get the black CF Dbrand skin with a cutout, and in the cut out have a red accent in the Motorola dot.

That's exactly what in doing with the blue Nexus (except I'm putting s matte black accent on the camera and red carbon on the moto logo). I ordered mine a few days ago, their skins are awesome.
How does the matte finish skin feel?
Does their titanium skin feel metallic?
Wasted a good 30min going through different configs lol.
I'm going with a two-tone blue back with white accent for the M logo and camera. Matte white for the front.
Thanks OP.
Man I have never even heard of them!!! I will most likely be buying myself a set in the coming weeks. Im thinking black steel on the back with white accents.. and an orange front. xD
EDIT: Scratch the front skin.. the nexus 6 looks to be almost completely glass on the front unlike a samsung phone... so it would prob get in the way of a screen protector lol

I don't know what you mean by "metallic feel". I can tell you it looks and feels stylish. Obviously, it's vinyl, not metal, so it's not cold or anything, but it's really cool. It's a bit on the slippery side, but not as much as real metal.
Here it is applied on my white Nexus 5:
Dbrand posted a foto of the black carbon skin on a nexus 6.

By metallic I meant does it feel cold and kind of slippery. I figured since they advertised it as such, it would maybe have a thing layer of aluminium or something. After Googling, I found some nice pictures. That's good to know though.
Thanks!
I just ordered a Black Titanium skin, will be sure to post pictures/video once i get it.
Ordered a black titanium and mahogany, all my previous phones had carbon fiber look, looking for a fresh new look, also looking to buy a bamboo vinyl to cut it myself, they have one but i dont like it because the texture look is crowded. I'm trying to find one to match a closer look to moto x bamboo.
Dbrand posted a picture on their facebook page of an unreleased skin. I really want it since it looks really nice and grippy. I've emailed them about it but haven't gotten a response yet. Hopefully they'll start selling it soon.
