Surprised there's no thread for these. Looking very tempting. 5 years of support which is great for those who keep our phones long-term. Do like my Pixel 4a but do find it a little underpowered and battery life isn't brilliant. Probably will be the regular 6 its bit more affordable. Estimated pricing is €649 the Pro is a little pricey for me at €899. Hopefully they do a good launch offer like the Pixel 5. Possibility it won't be on the Irish Google store for launch though, only the UK site has info up. Should be able to get it up north I guess or Argos may have it.

Just received mine :)
Will unbox and set up during lunch
My OnePlus does 30w charging but over the official OnePlus charger only. On anything else that does 30w+ the phone will only charge at 15w. It makes a huge difference, I'd definitely buy the Google charger if it's the only one that supports 30w charging. Is it though?
Had to change my payment type over to my BoI Visa, for it to work.
Do Google payments not play well with MasterCard?
Now my delivery date is not until Friday, but at least they took the damn payment this time!
Was really hoping Vodafone would have the Pro for sale by today.
I used my N26 Mastercard to pay and had no issue. Google and all payments seems to be very temperamental looking at the thread.
Pre-ordered on release day and still waiting for dispatch. Payment went through successfully.
Really hoping the phone arrives by Thursday but maybe wishful thinking at this stage!
My case just came
I received the Spiegen one for the 6 Yesterday. Looks solid. Needed for young kids.
Yeah I’ve the belroy leather one on the way to. Anyone got a screen protector yet? I should really just buy into the invictus gorilla glass and not bother but usually do and have on previous phones
My delivery was scheduled for October 28th-29th, and I see looking at the order page now, it's slipped 30th Nov-1st Dec.
That sucks my pro is still showing 28th/29th october, it moved into 26th/27th but back out again over the weekend... ill be annoyed if it slipped now as i ordered as soon as the website was actually taking orders last week... ill know by end of the day as it should ship this evening if its going to make thursday
Moved a little for me as well, now Oct 29th/Nov 1st. Few days don't make too much difference really.
Hope that isn't going to be the same for everyone. I only ordered on the 21st and my order still hasn't shown up on my banking app and hasn't shipped according to the store. Still says I will receive it by 28th/29th though but hopefully it isn't going to move out. It will ship today I suppose if it is going to be here Thursday.
Funny enough, the case hasn't arrived yet, hopefully tomorrow
I ordered a case today. When i ordered it showed delivery between 29th and 1st of November. Now its says 1st December. Very few cases out there at the moment.
Nice. Are you happy with the look of the black? That's the colour I ordered but had been regretting it a bit after having a better look at the other options for the 6.
Is your status "We'll email you when your delivery is on its way"?
I had money taken yesterday, been at this status since. Looking back at my Pixel 5, it arrived overnight when it did finally ship. Should be this week anyway.
Status just says ordered... they charged for the case/charger and phone sunday and shipped the case sunday - i got an email saying part of my order had shipped... to meet thursday id expect the phone/charger to ship this afternoon
Its alright, was my least preferred option but the only one with 256 GB
Mine arrived anyway.
My light rain case has been pushed to next week, looking forward to being back here Monday to say I've dropped and smashed my new phone over the weekend
Might be worth picking up a cheap case for a tenner from Amazon in the meantime, be in your house by Thursday probably
I actually just did there, got a cheapo TPU case from Amazon. Delivery set for Friday but hopefully it arrives earlier
Coming from an s10e the regular 6 feels huge and alot heavier, thankfully won't be using a case but it will be like a brick for anyone that is.
Any charger that supports 30 watt PD should work fine. I think the OnePlus phones use proprietary tech for fast changing. The Anker Nano 2 is another option.

I've the black 6 ordered since the 19th and just got this message on my order
Your delivery was delayed. We're working to get it to you soon and will email you when it's on its way.
It was saying delivery 26/27 th
Exact same here. 6 Sorta Seafoam
D'oh. I ordered the black 6 on 21st and no sign of shipping yet either. Hopefully you won't be waiting much longer. I know a day or two don't really matter in the big scheme of things, but days can seem like weeks when you are waiting for new tech to arrive, especially when you see others receiving theirs!
Is that the standard or pro? I haven't had any notification of a change to mine (standard) - still showing 28 Oct - 1 Nov
Standard
