With a 32GB 6P available from Orange for R7500, no ways 128GB second hand is worth R2500 more IMO. They are out of stock, but still.

With a 32GB 6P available from Orange for R7500, no ways 128GB second hand is worth R2500 more IMO. They are out of stock, but still.
Any recent prices for a 64GB version? Lately it seems Orange only stocks the 32GB.
I sold my crapPhone 6s and ordered a 6p.
A bit concerned I am late for the party with the new Nexus out in a month or two but I couldn't wait and got a good price for my iPhone.
From what I can see is that the new Nexus 2016 won't feature that many hardware changes, mainly just a bump up to the snapdragon 820 and just software which the 6p will get anyway.
Also really like the front firing speakers of the 6p (new one wont have) and generally like the spec and look of the 6p.
Finally the price of the new Nexus will be R10k + whereas I paid R6900.
Anyway, thats my justificationShould be here next week.
Where did you pay R6900? Currently in the market for one myself. Cheers

Me too. Have an option for a second hand one at R4,500, but would prefer a new one for a little more.

It was from Orange but I eventually cancelled due to delay after delay.
Ah that sucks, did you get one somewhere else?

No unfortunately not. Got a p9 lite instead.
They have stock at R7300. Worth it. Upgraded to Android N, another level of awesomeness.
Just ordered mine! 32gb graphite black 
Which cases, screen protectors are you guys rocking, also where you got it?
Any other tips for a 6 year samsung user going to stock android?
Cheers

You will never go back to Samsung rubbish again.
Nillkin or nilkin cases are e best, only available on AliExpress .
Depending on your location I have a glass screen protector and a no name case if you want it. I bought bulk haha
Thanks. I've been looking at Takealot, but non of the cables on there say if they have overcharge protection. It seems that some cheap cables can allow a device to pull too much current leading to hardware damage. I have found one on wootware though that looks like it will do the trick.

Do you guys think the 6P's price will drop after the new pixel's launch?
Would you buy a 6P over a one plus 3? They are very similar but the OP3 beats the 6P in a few areas. At this stage I'm leaning towards the 6P as it's just much easier to get hold of in SA without paying absurd amounts of money.

Don't over think it. Use an app called ampere to check it while it's charging if you are being so pedantic about it.
Decision depends if you want dual sim or not.
I'm not really too bothered by the dual sim TBH.
Awesome. I'm in Cape Town, price on the case and screen protector?
