If it was $100-$150 it might be worthwhile, but even then you’re buying something that’s going to lose 100% of its official support in just a couple of months. For one thing, we’ve seen it for less ( 2 years ago in fact). The Nexus 6 is still a great phone, but it’s really hard to recommend it for this price. That means that Nexus 6 users will be left more vulnerable to attacks and any bugs that do pop up won’t be fixed. Worse yet, security patches are set to cease this November. Google’s final update to the Nexus 6 was Android 7.1.1, and even that had its fair share of issues. First and foremost, software support is quickly drying up. However, there’s something to be known when even considering a phone this old. The front-facing speakers, huge screen, and solid performance continue to today, and there are no signs that any of those are going to give out.
For that age, it’s still running quite well for those who are still using it. Google’s Nexus 6 is approaching three years old. However, today’s Amazon Gold Box deal that cuts the price to $230 isn’t the best idea. The “shamu” that it was, it turned out to be a pretty spectacular phone, and one that is still in use in my family. Of Google’s various Nexus phones, one of my favorites was 2014’s Nexus 6.
