As above for some reason the gold is £414 from £449

Super Hot!!! Google has nailed it with this phone. Superb screen, good speakers, excellent camera and stock android without any bloatware. Security updates every month, fantastic customer service..and the list goes on. I have had a few nexus phones and they were great as well especially Nexus 5. But recently they were missing the premium feel untill this one. Really happy with this phone. Any discounts on this phone are worth it.

Good to hear it. Not quite the same though are they? Large phablet design, front facing speakers, AMOLED display (if that floats your boat), stock Android with fast updates, more premium build quality.
The G4 is a great phone for £225 but I don't think the two are interchangeable, and someone after a Nexus 6P wouldn't necessarily get on with the G4 - though it's good that you like it.

Why does it need to be gold and why so expensive? I would rather see google work on accessible phones with real world specs and cheap prices rather than tech fantasy , Nobody needs a phone to do so much .

They also make the Nexus 5X, which has lower specs and is cheaper.
Personally I want the specs in the 6X and I am willing to pay this price for it - it is only the enormous size and bending issues that put me off.

Some people just have the money, they have so much they can spend it on jewel encrusted mobile phones if they want and they do exist. There's Porsche designed mobile phones which cost tens of thousands.
There's people that will have gold plated or jewel encrusted hypercars, just because they have too much money. That's humans for you. This isn't that expensive in relation to the ones in that article sadly.

There are hundreds of companies doing that (if you look at Chinese imports on Bangood etc) and a fair few on the UK market. Pile 'em high, sell 'em cheap is a business model which works for some companies, but not usually companies wanting to portray a high-end image.
If you're a company looking to show off your latest OS then the best way to do it is on the latest hardware.
They also make the nexus 5X of course, which is the lower level alternative.
MotoG of course was released when Google owned Motorola, you could argue that that was an accessible phone inspired largely by Google, so they have been there, done that.
As for Gold - because apple do I guess.
As for real world specs - erm, they aren't alien (but I get what you mean)
The 6P is a fantastic phone, just a bit too big, shame the 5X didn't have the same internal specs - but then it wouldn't be cheaper.

I agree, bring back the nexus 4 pricing, i.e. a couple of hundred max.

really it's getting a bit stupid do people even know why they are buying these things anymore or do people just enjoy wasting money on sh*te just to say they have it?

Hot. I can't think of a phone better than this for this price.

Didn`t Nexus phones used to price-conscious while highly spec`d ? I KNOW the 6P is a marvellous device, but Google are taking the purse now :disappointed:

Yes, the 4 & 5 (not 5X) were both under £300 for the top model.

My personal opinion is LG G4 much better than this one.
