The 5.7-inch display of the Nexus 6P is a better fit for watching HD movies in a 16:9 aspect ratio when compared to the old Nexus 5. It's a shame, because Google has a fantastic keyboard by default, with finger swiping enabled on the frontend and a smarter autocorrect system in the backend. My messages go to the original messenger and no one else. Group messaging with a number of iPhone users is also a problem (this one problem isn't necessarily Google's fault). It's better, but can't really top Apple's iMessages way of doing things.Īs I explained in my Nexus 5X review, text messages are isolated on my Nexus 6P when using the Messenger app, and Hangouts confuses people by integrating my work email or my Google Voice number.
Google, of course, still packs in Hangouts, which was redesigned over the summer for both iOS and then Android. It does, however, offer a clean and simple SMS app called Messenger (different from Facebook's identically named Messenger app). Nothing ties them together, and the Nexus 6P software doesn't fix this. I've never been a big fan of messaging on Android, because so many of my contacts use different apps. I haven't witnessed any battery improvements thanks to the improved Doze mode, but again the software is yet to be optimised so hopefully it will be more noticeable come the find build in a few weeks.

Some apps don't work just yet, so be prepared to want to revert back to Android Marshmallow if you'll miss them too much. It's in beta and work perfectly, as smooth and as feature packed as has been running on my 6P. Of course, this is still an unfinished build of Android Nougat. There's a handy recently used apps row at the very top to take away some of the pain. Prepare your brain, since it now has you scroll up and down (no longer left to right). The last thing I'll touch on before getting into specific apps is the all-encompassing app drawer.
The Google Play Store acts as your portal to downloading everything else, from Facebook and Instagram to LastPass and Pandora.

Inside is Play Music, Play Movies & TV and Play Games. Pinned to the home screen are Google's camera, SMS Messenger and Play multimedia apps in a folder. It's filled with your favorite Google apps out-of-the-box instead: Gmail, Google Maps, Contacts, Drive, Calendar, Photos, Hangouts, YouTube, Photos and so on.
