Test of autonomy battery Google Nexus 6 – MovilZona.es

Nexus 6 is the first of all Android smartphones panorama that comes standard with the 5.0 version Lollipop, and we were really curious to know what it would be their performance and autonomy Battery. First to know how much asking for your hardware and then find out if your OS helps that we lose not power the first exchange.

And guys have been GSMArena who have made test of battery life testing the terminal under three conditions of very specific use: calls, web browsing and uninterrupted video playback. And regardless of the results to get the Nexus 6 separately, one conclusion we can already draw: its battery of 3,220 mAh gives to endure a day but there is much work to be done

Call <. / h3>

The first section is the call, getting a brand that could be considered as discrete, if we consider that one of its direct competitors, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (which has a battery of the same size), exceeds those 25 hours and three minutes with three extra half hour. However, when compared to the LG G3, it is less than 50 minutes.

The web browsing is important because it is not only the use with QHD screen Nexus 6 what’s spent, but the use of Wifi or data that we use to load everything. Here Brand Nexus 6 runs in just over 10 hours and again, lost again in comparison with other similar models. For example, regarding the Galaxy Note 4 three hours apart. And that the ‘phablet’ Korean has a slightly smaller screen: 5.7 versus 6 device manufactured by Motorola

Video playback

Here are becoming astronomical distances with Nexus 6 goes quite far of autonomy offered by other devices in the same segment. Specifically, although not want to get heavy with the Galaxy Note 4, the Motorola device has less than seven hours of playback: 10 versus 17. One difference is explained not only by the hardware Nexus 6 or 0.3-inch screen that separates them. Sure has something to do Android 5.0 Lollipop , that the same is not optimized everything it should and needs some tweaks to perform better. Would not you think

HTC is already correcting problems in the hardware of the Nexus 9 – MovilZona.es

The Nexus 9, and takes a few weeks on the market and, as you probably know, one of the points that have been criticized is that of its construction, the overall finish of the tablet that Is not Everything how robust we wished of a device to hit the market with the guarantee of Mountain View.

And since most obvious example of this finish are buttons for volume and power / off , as you can see in the picture below, did not maintain a minimally acceptable consistency. Both components seem to protrude very little and the largest with which we go up or down the sound seems to be sunk on one side than the other.

And luckily the user complaints have reached the ears of their repsonsable and HTC has listened carefully. So much so, that some units with production date in November already have that problem solved, and also to see the same picture, the tablet underneath. In this latest batch, buttons protrude more and have a more consistent than those that were manufactured in October appearance.

The question is simple you will become, how do I know, before you buy, if I go to send a device manufactured in October or November? Well the bad news is there is no way as it will depend on where to have gone faulty or remittances rather poorly finished. Although there is a track that we can continue if we are given access to the serial number of the tablet ranging us to send: If you ‘serial number’ HT4A is was manufactured in October and HT4B in November .

By the way, this button is not all they have managed. Surely you know that in these first units, some buyers Nexus 9 reported that there light leakage around the edges of the screen (as you can see in the picture above), giving a terrible feeling especially when the screen is completely black. Now, it seems that has been attenuated enough to not be as obvious, but still exists.

So wait and see what are reporting new buyers of these Nexus November 9. Would you happened to you

Once we have SuperUser privileges, so just have to have an application like Lightflow or similar, to enable the functionality of the LED, which apparently common da preppy to the device. The Christopher Columbus in this case has been JMUT XDA-Developers, who find nothing went head over to the forums to expose their discovery. Of course the LED notification has functionality to cover all that is usual in notifications, can choose the color from red, blue and green , which really gives a nice touch to our Nexus device 6.

Disable the encrypted data on your Nexus 6 for higher performance

After the news a few months in cases of “surveillance” of the NSA, Google decided to take action and adopt the policy of enable data encryption by default in Android 5.0 Lollipop . The thing is that according to a study by AnandTech, constantly sending encrypted data and processes makes our Nexus 6 render much worse , it has to ensure each data commands and thus work Background of the device is significantly higher. So our friend bbedward XDA-Developers has discovered that encryption is performed by an assembly in the famous FSTAB , and known to all Linux users. Thus, the developer has created a modified FSTAB and can be installed flashing, thus allowing a package, the Nexus 6 not send data and execute processes in encrypted form, which saves considerable energy . To install this modification, you must have unlocked bootloader and have a backup made as the process will erase all existing data . It is best if you already have a full backup, leave your device while manufactured by a Full Wipe and then install, this package to modify the FSTAB. Finally we leave you with a link to XDA-Developers where you can get the package plus all the necessary support. We hope that you give all the performance you deserve your Nexus 6, albeit at the cost of reduced security.

Google Nexus unveiled on October 6, the new smartphone from its family of mobile devices. The terminal, which for its size fits more into the category of “phablets” you can buy in Spain from 649 euros. Whenever a high-end smartphone hits the market, specialists in repair manuals iFixit gut the terminal to determine what their insides. The Nexus 6 has been no exception to the tradition, so iFixit has disassembled .

The Nexus 6, although marketed under the Google brand is manufactured by Motorola, which saves some internal similarities with the Moto X (second generation), one of the powerful Motorola phones.

The first cover should be removed

iFixit notes that to reach internal components, specialists must remove two layers. The first is the back cover, which is attached with clips, so that need special tools .

The second layer must remove the technical

When you move this casing is exposed metallic layer that protects the components of the smartphone. This is covered by screws , which although may seem a headache, avoid technicians deal with adhesive.

Performance Nexus 6 and 9 to 80% lower because encryption – Computer Today

It seems that rarely an added benefit to an operating system with the best intentions in the world has caused many difficulties and problems in this case where users Nexus Nexus 6 and 9 observed a loss of yield important without knowing why.

Lollipop Android 5.0 introduced the encryption memory (also known as Full Disk Encryption or FDE) enabled by default, and for the first time, for all its users. A measure that came to be protective and to add an extra layer of security is doing that users get 80% less performance of internta device memory, regarding the unencrypted version.

AnandTech rushed to perform some tests because they were among the first to access the Nexus 6 when it went on sale in the Google Play, and extracted interesting conclusions of its technical tests that were subjected to the terminals.

If you look at the first of the graphs that show the outlook is bleak. In this first we can see that a Nexus 6 with encryption enabled sheds figures of 6.18 MB / s at random read, while the same Nexus 6 without encryption does at a rate of 16.64 Mb / s.

Going further, A Google Nexus 5 with Android 5.0 Lollipop offers a bit more than twice the speed of reading the Nexus 6 : 12.66 MB / s. This is explained by that terminals which are updated from an earlier version to Android 5.0 can disable encryption , so its performance is not at all bitter.
