Disclaimer, I am not used to do hardware reviews, let’s try!
My Nexus 5 burnt…I woke up and the USB cable was literally burning…so fired phone but still working, unable to charge it. Decide it to sell it since I was tired of the phone a bit…
I had high hopes on the Nexus 6, but I do not feel for spending 600€ in a mobile phone…and is not what I have expected either. I got a great disappointment when I saw the price, what I loved about the last nexus I had 4 & 5, was having a last generation device for a reasonable price.
Started the research and after much discussion with myself, endless hours of video reviews I decided to buy the Huawei Honor 6, bought it for 299€ on amazon.es.
Keeping this short, honestly this is the real “Nexus 6”. Just that is called Honor…. Now its 2 weeks since I use it and love it 😉
