    isn’t nexus a Google phone?

    it has slightly upgraded specs from the HTC one, but the One came out 2 years previous, with truly innovative features like front-facing speakers so that you could hear the audio clearly and an IR blaster, plus it had self-diagnostics so that you could test a second hand phone before you bought it or troubleshoot yours very easily with the series of diagnostic tasks.

    what’s the innovative part of the 6p?

    ooh, I do like that the Nexus adopted the front-facing speakers and aluminum body from HTC One, that was a smart move.

    not innovative 2 years later after those features were developed, but definitely a smart move by a hopeful company.

    a slightly weaker battery, but 2 years after the HTC One, I would have been interested in the 6P as the logical next step; add 1 GB of RAM, add the new bands, slightly higher ppi.

    I was disappointed when the M8 went backward with PPI, HTC one had 468 in 2013, new huawei phones in 2024 have 402 ppi.

    that’s rough stuff, all the companies are doing it too, skimping out on screens in favor of shitty proprietary software.
