6 Things to Know About the December Nexus 6P Update

Nexus 6P Android 8.1 Problems & Fixes

Google's latest Nexus 6P Android 8.1 build is causing problems for some users. 

We're seeing complaints about installation problems, severe battery drain, Bluetooth issues, lag and freezes, and some problems with some first and third-party applications. The list is short, but we expect it to grow as more Nexus 6P users install the firmware.

If you run into trouble you can't rely on Google to fix your problems. The company hasn't confirmed Android 8.1.1 or Android 8.2 and we don't expect either to roll out now that Android Pie is widely available. 

Our list of fixes for the most common Nexus Android Oreo issues is a great place if you start noticing bad battery life, issues with Wi-Fi, problems with Bluetooth, or random reboots.

If you run into issues with your Nexus 6P's apps, try updating them to the latest versions available from Play Store.
