Huawei Nexus 6P

When is it coming to SA. I'm still undecided between the Note 5, S6 Edge +, Huwaii and now the Nexus. My upgrade is due mid November
 
Probably a month or 2 before the local importers start bringing them in.

The 6P will probably be in line with the Note 5, S6 Edge, etc in terms of price sadly.

It will never be available on your contract and will require a cash purchase
 
Ars Technica:

"This year, we see a gap widening between Nexus devices and every other Android phone. If you're buying an Android device and want the fastest updates, the longest update support time, the best security program, zero crapware, the best software design, a cohesive app ecosystem, and the latest features from Google, you need to buy a Nexus. Every other Android phone pales in comparison to the Nexus 5X and 6P. Before, buying a Nexus meant you had to deal with a bad camera or poor battery life, but the Nexus 5X and 6P are the first Android devices built with few to no compromises....

In some ways these devices feel like a combination of the best ideas from the Android ecosystem. You get Motorola's ambient display and always-on voice commands, LG's laser auto focus, and Google's software design, security, and fast updates. This year's crop of Nexus phones are devices that stand alone atop the Android ecosystem, with a combination of features you won't find anywhere else."

This thing looks so good.
 
It looks really good , actually Iv decided I want to go back to either Nexus or a Moto . I used the nexus 6 last year and loved it , this year I have the Mate 7 which has been great and I was going to take a Note 5 for my work line ,but in the end I think iv decided to give the Note a skip , Iv read a lot about the bad Ram management on the S6 line and it seems it has carried over to the Note line now as well , actually saw it myself first hand over the weekend at both a Samsung store and Vodacom .Nope, I think I am going back to stock (or close to stock) android with either the Nexus 6P or the Moto X .

As things stand currently though it looks as though the Nexus 6P is going to be a fair bit more than the Moto X , so I might opt for the Moto then which has also got some very good reviews all round . Will have to see what Orange offer the 6P at first though otherwise ill chat to my brother in the USA and see how they are priced over there .

You can now pre-order the 6P from Cellucity. Presumably Vodacom will stock it at at the very least.

No pricing on that pre-order hey. Just checked the site now, can only enter your details to be notified later.
 
I tried to order from here. American Credit cards only.

I was implying that Huawei SA needs to catch a wake up, they're riding the 'popular' wave at the moment so why not show some love and release a few 6P's...
