(Part 2) Top products from r/Nexus6P

I'm using the Spigen Rugged Armor (http://amzn.com/B016CBFBVI) and it really is a nice case. I haven't put it to the test yet but after putting the 6P into it I do know I felt a lot more comfortable with where I lay the device and so on. That said the rhino shield bundle setup Evolutive Labs is coming out with looks like a for sure winner. I even placed an order for their full bundle but it's going to be January sometime before it's even suppose to be out. So till then I'll gladly sport Spigen's case. I might even pick up their screen protector. They have a tempered glass one out now (http://amzn.com/B016CBF5VO)

Defenitely the Verus case!

I think it just looks amazing. Ports are clear, had nog headphones or chargers wich didn't fit. The inner case feels really solid, so it will protect your 6P pretty good. Also on the back side it has a horizontal pattern which give it a metal-ish look. It looks and feels great. I chose the blue version which give your phone a unique look.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Nexus!

I have the 64GB Frost in a Google Live Case. I also have the Verus case (found here: http://www.amazon.com/Nexus-Verus-Shield-Satin-Silver/dp/B015GHQHZ8/ ) and I love them both. I like the Live Case a bit more because of the personalized photo, but the Verus case is very nice for a good price.

What carrier did you end up going with?

If you have any questions or issues, please don't hesitate to ask!

1. Bought it a few days ago, received today.
   
   
2. I bought it from Amazon here
   
   
3. I used the tools that came with it, plus an exacto knife, playing cards, and a hairdryer.
   
   
4. The only minor issue is that I bent the plastic piece at the bottom pulling it off while the glue was still pretty tight. I wish I had taken a little more time and been more careful. It would have been easier if I had a chisel exacto knife instead of a standard - with a standard exacto knife, I had to push down at an angle to get the blade flat to the edge, and it took a while to figure out just how far to push down. Also, I kept accidentally turning on the phone, which didn't seem to cause a problem, but freaked me out.
   
   
5. So far, battery life looks to be about 4 hours of SOT from 1, which seems good. In hindsight, the battery manufacturer recommended leaving the phone off and charging for 12 hours, so maybe I should have done that.
   
   
6. NA.
   
   
7. Other tips - Take your time and it's not that bad. Watch a video until you have a fairly good idea where the display cable is under the battery, so you can stay away from it while getting the battery out.
   
   
8. Not sure if it has a temperature monitor, but probably not.
   
   
9. The replacement cable matches the narrow photo in the OP link, although I thought looked just like the one in my phone. It fit fine but not perfectly, so there was a little tiny bit of slack when I put the phone together.

• Orzly are based in the UK and sell on Amazon (next day delivery with prime). I have one of these on my fathers Nexus 9 and would definitely recommend them, good fit and the oleophobic coating resists fingerprints well - http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B016ONT0RK
  
  
  
• Intelliarmour are getting a lot of good feedback. They they don't have any stockists in the UK so you have to wait/pay for delivery but that being said - they're currently doing a 2 pack for 12.95USD & when coupled with their "intelli6p" coupon, means you can get 4 (2x2packs) for around £13 (gbp) delivered to the UK - http://www.intelliarmor.com/intelliglass-nexus-6p-the-smarter-real-glass-screen-protector.html
  
  
• Spigen also do a TGSP but they don't provide an edge-to-edge version - I actually cancelled my pre-order as they changed the design without letting anyone know. I really wouldn't recommend this due to the fact that this will probably begin lifting off of the screen easily, and the fact that parts of the screen are still susceptible to damage - www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B016CBF5VO/
  
  
• Ringke - I've never used their TGSP's but their cases are great so I don't see why their other products would be any different - http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B006MMHBNY/
  
  
• Casebase - I have also never used these, but have heard good things on XDA - http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B016Y6RPR4/
  
  Hope this helps!

I used to use the unicorn beetle pro. The screen protector is a cheap piece of plastic which didn't sit flat on the screen and scratched easily. I actually just ripped the plastic off and used tempered glass. It is quite durable. It is a bit thicker than most cases and should provide ample protection. As for taking it off an on, it's a bit annoying, but should only take like 10-20 seconds. I'm not sure if it's from me putting my case on and taking it off, but I did notice some of the paint chipping away on the edges where the case would rub up against when putting on or taking off the case. I liked the case overall, but I use one of these https://www.amazon.com/WizGear-Universal-Swift-Snap-Technology-Smartphones/dp/B00PGJWYJ0
I had the metal plate between the case and the phone. The case was a bit too thick, which made the magnetic mount a bit useless. I ended up switching to the Unicorn Beetle Slim and don't look back. The magnetic car mount works perfectly, and I still feel comfortable with the level of protection it provides.

I currently use a soft clear case and I like it. My general preference is to use something that hides the device as little as possible. I used to go completely naked when I was younger but now I'm older and have kids, I'd rather be safe than sorry. In fact, I've already dropped the 6P once and bumped it against hard surfaces a dozen of times and thanks to the case, it's not damaged at all.

I don't know if that's necessary the BEST look for the Gold 6P, but I did try the frost Adopted case I got for my wife's Frost 6P and it did not look nearly as good on the Gold as it does on the Frost. IMHO, the frost Adopted case makes the Gold too muted and washed out.

Update:

I ended up buying the YISHDA Battery off amazon (as recommended bu u/PoetmasterGrunthos) and just finished installing it following this Ifixit guide. Currently the phone says it's fast charging with 1 hr 40 min until full.

I did not buy or need replacement back parts and used a hair dryer to loosen the adhesive. I was very liberal with the hair dryers use around the back glass and continued applying heat while slowly pulling it off. When re-applying the bottom plastic cover due to the way my phone is dented a little I put curved edges in first and then pressed the center down to get everything to fit.I managed to bend back the other small (but noticeable to me) dent near the volume button's with a combination of pressing down on it and gentle hammering.

I would have included pictures however the 6P is my camera. Overall I can't say it feels like a new phone yet, however it certainly seems like it's charging to it's full capacity. I will update again sometime in the future with longer term results of this battery's life, but for the moment I am happy and can say the procedure is not too difficult.

I've loved the Spigen Glas.tR SLIM screen protector. https://www.amazon.com/Protector-Tempered-Glass-Cutout-Proximity-Easy-Install/dp/B016CBF5VO It has a bevel on the edge and is case friendly, and has all if the cutouts. Absolutely love this, no complaints, especially at that price.

Check out either the Spigen Rugged Armor or the Unicorn Beetle Pro. The first one is more of a slim/sleek option and the second is more akin to an Otterbox. I own both and I prefer the Unicorn mostly because I'm clumsy and it'll protect from drops. It's a fair amount thicker than the Rugged Armor however. As for glass screen protectors, check out the Spigen Glass Screen protector. It's a perfect fit and I've had my screen saved once by it. Smooth to the touch as it should be.

The micro USB to USB C adapter might not be up to spec. Here are some that should be safe to use. Usually someone in the reviews will mention if they're safe to use or not. I'd recommend getting at least a USB A to C cable for normal use though. Good luck!

I have a Spigen TGSP that I love. My buddy has the Intellliarmor and it's very nice too. Both are very fingerprint resistant, easy to apply, and both have been able to handle all the cases we've tried - Spigen Rugged Armor, Diztronic TPU, Spigen bumper case, and the official Adopted case.

I always use Pleson . Always had great installations and results.

Nexus 6P Screen Protector [Cutout for Proximity Sensor], PLESON® Huawei Nexus 6P Tempered Glass Screen Protector 2015, 2.5D Ultra Clear 9H Bubble Free Screen Protector for Nexus 6P - Lifetime Warranty https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017EE2L7O/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_aFbDxbET1WAE0

I have the spigen rugged armor. Its very nice and it has survived falls from my lap. I also have a glass screen protector which is (in Jeremy clarksons voice) explosion proof!! Both of which have held up nicely

• I haven't had any bending problems without using a case (Other than unentionally jumping onto my bed right onto the phone. It bent back easily)
  
  
• Fenix for Twitter, Relay for Reddit, and if you end up using Google Now launcher, Awesome icons to fix the instagram icon. I don't use any battery saving apps, i've never tried them though so im not sure if they work or not. The screen takes up most of the battery, so i'd reccomend not using it above 90% brightness, which is really bright.
  
  
• DBrand / Slickwraps skin (which i guess wouldnt be practical if your using a case. I use a Rhinoshield bumper to protect the phone and also show off my skin). I use the Samsung Level Link so that i dont have any headphones wires coming out of my phone when i listen to music. I haven't found a need to buy any more chargers (other than a car charger that can quick charge my phone) for the 6P. I keep the C-C charger next to my bed, and carry around the very short A-C cable along with my Small portable battery
  
  EDIT: forgot to mention my Moto 360 as an accessory!

Nexus 6P Battery Case, ZeroLemon Google Huawei Nexus 6P High Capacity 8500mah Rugged Battery Case - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DXTIN6W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_rw7Ixb542SFGK



Zerolemon 8,500mah case. Just announced, but already sold out. I was able to snag one though. I had a 10,000mah zerolemon case for my note 4 and never had a problem with it. Hoping this one is just as good.

Sounds like 64GB is the safer option - you never know what you'll start accumulating.

However, just to toss this out there: I have a 32GB, and keep a small music library (for poweramp) plus movies and other videos on a USB-C OTG flash drive. I just plug it in and access it via ES File Explorer. Swap out music, play a movie right from the drive, etc.

I have a separate OTG drive that I use for TWRP backups. I mount the USB storage in TWRP, do a backup, un-mount, done.

If that sounds like an option for you, these are the drives I bought: http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Digital-64GB-Traveler-DTDUO3C/dp/B010HWCFDA

I have this one with a Rhinoshield and it fits great. I am very happy with the combo.

I would recommend getting a Tempered Glass Screen Protector. I have this Spigen one and it's been great.

I'm still undecided on a case. I tried the Microfiber one from the Google store and it doesn't work well with a glass screen protector and the buttons were kinda mushy so I sent it back. I may just go naked with the screen protector since I have Nexus Protect.

Also, I'm a Dad of almost 2 year old twins so I can relate to your lack of free time.

Do it yourself if you're at all handy, it's pretty easy, all you need is hair dryer or heat gun, some guitar picks, a credit card and a flat blade precision knife (exacto) or similar.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B078B5P1LD/
worked great for me right up until my performance cores separated and my 6p went into cold storage as an emergency backup.

For a car mount I've been using this iOttie mount (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JRGOKQ8). It sticks well to my dash even though my dash is plastic and textured. If you have a large case on your phone like an otterbox it may not fit, but I have a small case and it works great. I've had the mount longer than I've had the 6P.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015P62LU0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

Just ordered that case, hasn't came in yet so can't give you a review. Based on the Amazon reviews, as long as the cutouts are good, it's a great case

I ordered this, since I just want the phone to be fully protected. It has all you're asking for, and reviews for this case for other models of phones say it's better than OtterBox.

This one by NXET has been reviewed by Benson and supports rapid charging when using the right wall wart. I like it so far, if my opinion means anything (not that it should). :)

I've been doing some research as well. It seems like the favorite entry level is the Viewmaster by Mattel. If you want something more higher end, go for the Freefly VR

Myself and a friend both got them (6P). Both of us had hairline scratches within 2 weeks. We also found the phones were slightly bent (lower right corner) and were shipped replacements for them. I put a glass screen protector on as soon as I opened the new one and so did he.

I don't exactly baby my phone but HE does. He's the guy that keeps his phone naked and gets to sell it two or three years later as "like new" and even he scratched the glass (and a bigger scratch than me!) and in less than two weeks. I'm not saying the glass is bad/poor quality. I'm just saying that it happens sometimes. a speck of dust in your pocket with some carbon in it will do it. Nothing wrong with a little insurance just in case.

I'm using the iOttie Easy One Touch 2. I've used it on the OPO as well. I like being able to position my phone as a HUD of sorts.

The Rhinoshield bumper, it's so effective and resistant, it's have a nice feeling in the hand and let show to the world the design of the 6P

The $382.45 is fulfilled by Amazon, so if there are any issues with the device its easy to return

edit: Note its the 32GB Graphite model

edit2: Check this out http://www.androidheadlines.com/2016/05/deal-refurbished-google-nexus-6p-starting-349-5616.html

I just received this Poetic Revolution case from amazon.

It makes the 6p a ton heavier and appears to add some shock proofing ( I haven't and won't be testing that out).

Another positive is its integrated kick stand.

Also it has a built-in screen protector, that I removed easily in order to use my already installed tempered glass screen protector.

I've only had it 1 day but I'm liking it so far.

Very careful with my devices, so I just went for the good ol' TPU bumper like I did on my M8. Friend of mine uses the Spigen. It's a couple dollars more than the Pleson TPU (I got the Pleson for $3 at the time) and the cut-out on the back for the print sensor is a little off but not that big of a deal.

3. See link it includes tools, in addition to that I used a craft knife (to get underneath the bottom and camera panels) a card (to remove glue under battery) and a hair dryer
   
   
4. Battery ribbon was slightly longer, as mentioned in Amazon reviews u can kind of just fold it
   
   
5. Great, 105% accubattery after a couple days use. Charging is slower though.
   
   
6. N/a
   
   
7. If you use a hair dryer heat it for a really long time (couple mins) I'm pretty sure it's not as effective as a heat gun as the glue wasn't always melting well if I didn't heat it for a while. And as others have mentioned when removing the glue from under the battery, becareful of the black ribbon (see YouTube videos) you can potentially rip it.
   
   
8. No
   
   
9. Thin cable

Kingston is the best option. Don't worry about the "write speed is slow" reviews. 6P has USB 2.0 speed to begin with.

I've been using those cheap air vent holders you can get for something like $3 on aliexpress, it fits all phones and most cars (you need a pretty weird air vent for it to not fit), but recently I found a holder that goes in the CD slot, something like this:

https://www.amazon.com/Mountek-nGroove-Universal-Phones-Devices/dp/B004G1L52Q

I think I might give this a try because 6P is quite a heavy phone and I'm beginning to see some wear on my air vent.

>So you don't use a case?

I was using the adopted case, but i don't know how the case you are using compares, so trying it without the case could show if there is a difference there?

>Are phone CPUs inconsistent like regular computers? Ie some same model can tolerate more over clock and some might even get too hot regularly, bad thermal paste job or whatever. Just worried I got a kind of punky one maybe.

I don't know any specifics, but I would think they would be similar because they have similar manufacturing processes, but they should all be able to run at the rated clock speed? If you are overclocking yours that could cause the rebooting problems...

And as far as thermal paste goes, in the ifixit teardown, it looks like they just put a glob down, so yours is probably fine. Especially if your whole phone is getting hot, that means the heat is getting from the cpu to the case
https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus+6P+Teardown/51660#s112876

>Btw do you mean your screen was constantly on?

Yes, the screen was on the whole time. And I was using a magnetic vent mount http://amzn.com/B00PGJWYJ0

Not the same style, but I've been using the RhinoSheild for a little while, and it's been doing well for me. It's a bumper case, so you still get the metal texture from the exposed back. I had a clear case before, but the plastic feel is what drove me away from it.

Im using this one and i love it!

I didn't and wish I had... Had it in the same pocket as my keys and now has a small scratch on the screen... Went on amazon and bought a spigen glass cover for 9.99... Love it so far and can't notice the scratch underneath anymore.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016CBF5VO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I use this one from Pleson and it's great! Bouncy rubber sides, not too thick.

If you combine it with their tempered glass screen protector, you get 20% off on both.

I ended up getting Mattel's View-Master to hold me over till a nicer one comes out. It is a solid made device that just fits the P6 w/o a case. There is no headphone cutout or straps but it is so cheap I wouldn't feel bad about drilling into it. I wrote a small review on it if you want more info.

Edit: Sorry i forgot to mention it does have a QR code and is supported by the cardboard app.

The Kingston drive that /u/outbound linked to above is cheaper still, and more versatile, so seems like the best wayto go.

Edit: Or Sandisk has one that is cheaper still.

I've used this case for my Nexus 5x and now my Nexus 6P. I love it and haven't had any issues myself.

Nope, these prices are from 3rd party sellers. Check here instead: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015YCRZ1K/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

They have changed its status from "Out of Stock" to "Usually ships within 1 to 2 months." like a few minutes ago.

Rhino Shield and I love it. https://smile.amazon.com/RhinoShield-CrashGuard-Absorption-Durability-Protection/dp/B01BBYN8HU

The magnetic mounts are the way to go. I use this variant in two cars and they work great in both for both my 6p and my wife's 5x:

WizGear Universal Air Vent Magnetic Car Mount Holder with Fast Swift-Snap Technology for Smartphones and Mini Tablets, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PGJWYJ0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_WxK6yb9DGRW5D

I've got a couple of Kingston OTG flash drives; they work great.

These Anker USB-C to Micro adapters are reviewed by Benson and work great for $8:

https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Adapter-Converts-Resistor-ChromeBook/dp/B01AHKYIRS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1467205125&sr=8-1&keywords=anker+usb+c+adapter

Check out the View-Master. It fits the Nexus 6P perfectly (without a case - doesn't fit it with a case!).

I would say go ahead and get a glass screen protector for sure. Gorilla glass 4 is easier to scratch than gorilla glass 3, but gorilla glass 4 it less prone to shatter, so I guess you take the good with the bad.

As for a case I just use a small thin one, I like it but it's really up to preference.
Link to case: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017NE0PD2/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_0L.4wbTSW7YDG

Amazon also has them in stock if you think they can reach him faster. http://www.amazon.com/Huawei-Nexus-6P-Graphite-smartphone/dp/B015YCRZ06/ref=sr_1_8?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1453671335&sr=1-8&keywords=nexus+6p

I've used this one for a few different phones now. Just tested my new 6p on the way in to work this morning and it works perfectly. My old phones were too fat to fit but the thinness of this phone actually works with this holder.

Without inside information it's impossible whether the factory is actually producing phones still, but they are still available new in all finishes from Huawei, so the supply of them is certainly still there.

I bought one of these a month or so ago:
NXET® Type-C Dock, Omni Case Compatible Sync & Charge Dock Charger Rapid Fast Charging Cradle for USB Type C Smaprtphone OnePlus Two 2, Google Nexus 5X/6P, Microsoft Lumia 950/950XL, Nokia N1 Tablet https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017K46T1M/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_zsQ-wb8K3FZKT

.
I like it. It's a bit cumbersome when trying to remove the phone from the dock with one hand but that's really not too big of a deal to me. It DOES NOT support rapid charge but is feasible seeing as how it's next to my bed and I don't need rapid charge over night.

I have the Supershieldz protector, but I don't love it. It fits fine, but it has this weird effect in direct sunlight that makes it looks like it has a million tiny cracks in it.

Haha the HA2 are expensive though, right now I'm looking for something around the 150 to 200 price range.

why not go for these

Agreed. This pair of six-foot cables for $8 have worked flawlessly for me.

Thanks for the explanation. I ordered this one. I'm guessing that the orange piece on the side is for the button.

All branded screen protectors are repackaged screen protectors from the same few vendors. Pick one with the right shape and good reviews and you're good to go.

I personally have this one: http://amzn.com/B017EE2L7O

but you'll notice that this one seems to be from the same vendor because of the same shape: http://amzn.com/B019O5MN4W

Try the Anker powerline branded ones they are the gold standard and family priced as well black or red.

I wouldn't ever charge a Type-C phone with an A-C cable because most A-C cable manufacturers still aren't USB-C compliant.

I hate to be that guy, but this is why OEMs tell you to charge with the cable that came with the phone. If you really need extra cables, you could always pick some up off Amazon. I'd go with Anker's PowerLine brand.

I've been using these, they work great and are dirt cheap. Sorry for .ca link

I have used the iOttie OneTouch 2 for just over a year with a few different phones and have never had any problems. It fits my 6P snugly with its case and also accommodates my wife's iPhone. It loads in very quickly and the only time I have had it fall out is once when the audio cable was pulled.

If you don't want all the bulk but still want protection I would rock a rhino guard crash guard. It's like a heavy duty bumper. I use one with a tempered glass screen protector and a dbrand skin. It's so nice to not make this phone all bulky. https://www.amazon.com/RhinoShield-CrashGuard-Protection-Durability-Lightweight/dp/B01BBYN8HU

I just ordered a Verus and a Supcase. I'll let you know which I prefer once I get them, though I think I will prefer the Supcase.

maybe this?

Another option for those having dust/lint issues is port covers, whether they be additional accessories, such as PortPlugs, or use of cases that have built-in covers, such as the Ringke Fusion or POETIC Revolution.

Just some ideas to think about for those wondering.

I have two questions, I can't seem to find any information, is a new Nexus phone going to be released this year? If so should I just wait to purchase a 6P then? Next question, I have Verizon and I'd rather not have their software on my phone, I'm assuming that the version I linked below should work with them?

I grabbed a Spigen screen protector to go with my Spigen Rugged Armor Case:

I use NXET doc.

I would go for this https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B017K46T1M/ref=pd_aw_sim_sbs_107_3?ie=UTF8&dpID=410tdJHk5LL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL100_SR100%2C100_&refRID=F8KKNZR2BPBE17W9E3AS

They claim correct USB C compatibility and the weight does not rest on the port.

I've been looking into this...

I bought two Anker two-packs of adaptors to put on my existing micro-USB cables ( https://amzn.com/B01AHKYIRS ). I find that when I plug into the USB-C-to-USB-C cable that came with the phone it says "charging rapidly" when I use the adaptors on a Micro-USB cable on another fast-charger adaptor it just says "charging" and when I plug into my Mac to charge while I'm at work it says "charging slowly" and it's not a lie. It takes all day to charge the phone that way so I gave up on it.

I also have a DBrand skin on my Nexus, so I use a bumper case to see the skin.

I personally use:

Nexus 6P Battery Case, ZeroLemon Google Huawei Nexus 6P High Capacity 8500mah Rugged Battery Case - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DXTIN6W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_tKgIxbS0HN4P9

Released today.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DXTIN6W

Which means nothing, it's not a regulated term, or even a generally specific term. "Quick Charge 2.0" for instance is a Qualcomm technology, and something the 6P doesn't support anyway, but that gives you direct info on the capabilities which are 5V/2.4A, 9V/1.5A, 12V/1.2A.

The Amazon page and the ZeroLemon page for the case lists Input but notably not Output amperage specifications.

It also obviously depends what wall plug you have it attached to. If the wall plug only outputs 1.5A then that's the maximum the device will get.

Does that mount interfere with the volume and/or power buttons? I'm using the Mountek nGroove, which works well, but I have to be careful where I close the grips, and that's annoying.

I use this and have had no issues:

Question for you.

I literally just replaced mine today and I'm having trouble getting the phone to boot up. When I installed it, the phone indicated it at 38% charge, but then it dropped and turned off. I was able to turn it back on but it did the same shut down shortly after.

I put it on the charger and now I've tried several times to reboot it with no success yet. What happens is it will go through the google log0 and the android animation, then the phone will vibrate once, make a chime, flash the android logo and then go to black. I've caught a brief glimpse of the homescreen a few times before it completely shut down, so I know something is working.

I've read that sometimes a phone won't accept a new battery right away and needs some time before it gets working properly, but I'm nervous that there's an issue. Have you experienced this at all or heard about it? Should I just keep it on the charger and be patient or should I do a factory reset?

Here's a link to the replacement I bought:

huh. I'm having exactly the same problem. Started a few weeks ago after I used an A-C adapter. Won't charge from any native USB-C source. I need to call Google one of these days, I haven't bothered yet.

N6P.
I've got a weird issue.
I bought this micro->C adapter and this portable battery at the same time. Plugged in the C-C cord, charged my phone perfectly. I plug in the micro->C adaptor on a micro cord, charges fine. I plugged into my factory charger...nothing. This elicited a nice "wtf?" moment. But I was going out of town, so I used the micro cord and the adapter, worked fine during the trip.

Got home. Factory charger still isn't working. I flip the C-C cord around, and the charging icon quickly flips between lightning bolt and nothing. Another "WTF?" moment.
Well, maybe the cord went bad or something. Grab this charger and a new C-C cord. New charger and new cord doesn't charge at all. New cord on factory charger doesn't charge at all. Old cord on new charger doesn't charge at all.

Take it out to the car. 2.4A type C, no charging at all.

3 different USB-A chargers charge it fine with the micro-C adapter on several different A-micro cords, including the new Anker charger. The factory A-C cord does work fine.

What
The
Fuck
?

Did the micro->C adapter break something? And if so, why does the phone still charge fine when using it? Anything that would be rapid charging (>2.1A) fails completely. Anything not rapid charging works fine. RMA time?

Very nice, but no loop for a chain so very easy to lose.
