I've currently got a claimed invite linked to my account. Expires in 14 hours. One - 64 GB Sandstone Black. Not sure how you could make that work as it's already linked to my account :(

I gave out 3 invites in the last 4 days - not a single one was used by the any of the people begging me for it. Go figure...
Unfortunately, mine are all expired now.

I've distributed 7 invites in total, and most had to be given out more than once to avoid having them go to waste. It's amazing how people can beg for invites but not be able to roll when one comes along.

Yeah, I got a nillikin one. No problems with it. May be a bit annoying if you don't have a cover, but I do so it's fine. I have noticed some light scratches though

Same here- one small scratch, which I'm trying desperately to ignore :(

so after some busy days, I finally got a chance to play with my new beast!and what a beast it is..it really is a large phone..makes me wonder just how truly big the Nexus 6 must be..so far I've only had a chance to do the initial set up and install a few important apps..will spend some time this weekend setting it up, adding music etc.

from my very limited usage thus far, I don't think I'll be using it one-handed too often..I think the design of the phone actually makes one-handed use a bit uncomfortable.but then again, I do have smaller hands..I'm loving the display tho!!it's still sharp and the size is awesome!!I watched an old episode of the big bang theory on there and I think I'll be doing a lot more of that in time to come!!

I got mine yesterday, what an awesome phone! When it comes time charging tho, I got the UK charger, I bought a universal adapter from builders, but the phone is charging soooooooo slowly, like 30% in 5 hours... Anything you guys can recommend?

I've never used the official charger. I found an unused Nokia-branded Micro USB charger just before my OPO was delivered and I've been using that. It charges pretty quickly imo. Just go buy a new charger. It's the most common connection type on earth just about.

Yeah, which is why I just use it to connect to my PC.

Nice..I've got a plug with an extension that you can connect up to 4 USB cables on it for charging so the shortness of the cable doesn't really affect me either.. But I don't think I'll be using it when travelling tho.

I'm in the UK - got a 2prong charger with mine. IE, not UK flat-3prong. AFAIK, they never had a UK charger?

Anyway...

Used the official charger this weekend, as I was in a rush and wanted all that 2.1A goodness. It certainly seemed slower than the 1A I'm used to with an old flat prong UK iPhone charger. I was disappointed. When I have more time, I'll do a test with Battery Monitor to see what mAh I get out of the 1A, 2.1A and an older .75A chargers.
