The Nexus 6 is getting Android 7.1.1 in early January, Google says

The final version of Android 7.1.1 Nougat started going out to supported Nexus devices in the first part of this month. Well, to all of the still supported Nexuses except one – the Motorola Nexus 6. This was hardly surprising for owners of the 6-inch behemoth, since it was late to the Android 7.0 party too, receiving the update a few weeks after the other devices. And history is now repeating itself.
If you own a Nexus 6, you may even have considered the lack of any official word from Google on the Android 7.1.1 update situation as an indication of the fact that the company has quietly dropped support for the phone released in 2014.
Thankfully that"s not the case. It turns out that a bug was the culprit for the update"s delay, and it"s still on its way to the Nexus 6. The oldest supported Nexus device is due to receive its taste of Android 7.1.1 Nougat in early January. Here"s the full statement sent by Google to Android Police:
Unfortunately, we found a last min..

Google confirms that it"s launching two flagship Android Wear smartwatches in early 2017

Two reports from a few months ago claimed that Google was working on two high-end smartwatches of its own, which were supposed to debut alongside the Android Wear 2.0 release this year. But then the new version of the company"s wearable OS got delayed until 2017, and so we assumed the launch of the watches was postponed for that reason.
It turns out that"s exactly what happened. Today Jeff Chang, Google"s product manager of Android Wear, has confirmed that the company is developing two flagship smartwatches which will be on the market in the first quarter of next year (so before March 31).
These will be the first devices to launch running Android Wear 2.0, but then throughout 2017 we"ll reportedly see more watches powered by the new OS version, from other partners. Some of those may even present their wearables at CES in January, while others will wait for Baselworld in March.
Google"s watches will not be Pixel-branded as you may have expected, instead they ..

Nexus 6P owners are experiencing early shutdowns and there is still no fix

A number of Nexus 6P owners have been experiencing an issue that was introduced to the handset with the major update to Android 7.0 Nougat. As reported by many owners on both Reddit and Google’s own Product Forums, the Nexus 6P has been subject to shutting down without warning with as much as 60% battery remaining in a few cases.
The handset would not power back on until the device is plugged back into its charger which is a serious issue. We depend on our mobile devices now more than ever before. In the event of an emergency, its hard to rely on a smartphone that sees unpredictable shut-down episodes. The only way for these to carry their devices reliably is by carrying a charger around or carrying a power bank.
A post on Reddit has come up as a result of Google’s low priority on the issue tracker, encouraging those experiencing the issue to let their voices be heard.
So if you find yourself with a Nexus 6P and you are having the same issue, head over to the product forums and post..
