Will my USB cord I used for my Galaxy fit the Nexus?

Any Apps specially designed for the phone?

Nexus uses USB type C, not sure on the galaxy but I think it uses micro USB, so no it won't fit.

Get a couple micro usb to usb c adapters and you can keep using older cords.

Keep us updated on how you like it. I am thinking about switching, got a year left on my lease agreement. Right now I am averaging 6 gig of data a month. That makes Project Fi slightly more expensive that what I am paying if you factor in the price of the Nexus 6p. If I can get it down to 4 gig I will definitely switch.

There is something to say for not being in a contract/lease agreement.

I bought a couple of these like the poster mentioned above. They work great while keeping the provided charger handy for quick charges if needed.

I like Fi a lot as I only use around 1-2 gigs / month due to being home or at work with wifi the majority of the time. Just set your podcasts, apps, etc. to update on wifi only and you'll be good to go.

My wife has it. Hope yours works better than hers. It sucks. She misses calls all the time. Has a lot of trouble making calls. Call quality sucks. We've been dealing with their support for 3 months now and it's no better.

It's weird, because everyone else loves it and says it works great.

We are in a normal coverage area. It also does the same thing when she's around lafayette and other bigger areas.

I'm waiting for the new Nexus phones in October to switch. Let me know how it goes.

Were you able to keep your number?

How long do these take to come in? I ordered Thirsday, on Friday I received the e-mail for my shipping information. Checked this afternoon and it still says label created.

The ability to roam without paying extra is awesome. It actually works abroad. Except my friend said her Fi didn't work in Korea for some reason.
