Reasonable considering it's a 6” phone
Also depends on the size of your hands? As the sides of the phone are tapered it feels a lot thinner than it actually is which definitely helps with one handed use

Impossible.
But I'm used to it now. For the guys who are waiting in anticipation, I want to stress that the camera is very good in low light with HDR. IMHO.

Interested to know your thoughts...
An excellent comparative review as per usual, Andy!
What do you and other owners of the Nexus 6 think of the antenna sensitivity compared to the Galaxy Note 4, Nexus 5, HTC One M7 and M8, Moto X 213 and 2014 and other phones? I'd be most interested in reception on EE. It seems that 'Phone info' can be obtained by dialling *#*#4636#*#* to open the 'Testing' menu, and then the 'Phone information' submenu. The Network Mode can also be set to 'LTE only' for those who wish to use the phone as a data-only device.
shaank remarked that the Nexus 5 has poorer reception than the HTC One M7 in the same flat on the same network ( http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=26975115 ). However, I saw a Reddit thread ( http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/2byp97/why_does_no_one_anywhere_test_actual_phone/ ) linking to a FierceWireless / Signals Research report stating that the Moto X 2013 received a stronger signal than the Samsung Galaxy S4, Samsung Galaxy Note II, LG G2 and HTC One. Other users have also praised the signal strength of the Moto X 2013 ( http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1pt0pn/i_get_poor_signal_strength_at_work_if_i_am/ ) and the new Huawei Ascend Mate7 ( http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/2q2unk/i_own_the_huawei_ascend_mate_7_ama/cn3f1uk ).

I've tried many phones so I can help you out a bit.
The Note 4 has fairly lousy reception: it's not as horrific as that of the Note 3 but it is significantly worse than the Moto X (2013), which is the best Android phone I have tested for reception thus far.
The HTC One (original) and M8 both have fairly good reception. Definitely above average.
The Xperia Z3 has some of the best reception out of any phone I have tested, it looses just to the Moto X (2013) which is slightly better.
The Moto X (2014) is slightly worse than the 2013 Moto X but not a lot.
The Nexus 5 has average reception.

I've got 3 here and went with the red to start with, dead easy to fit. Mine is slightly 1mm out on the bottom but not fussed.
Well worth it and makes the phone so much more gripper!
