There's actually a class action lawsuit related to this issue [1]. I first read about it here [2]. I've got a Nexus 6P too and it's great except for the battery and shutdown issues. Mine will shut down at like 20% or so so it's very usable, but it's often at night when I most need to use my phone (calls, rides, etc).

The 5x too. It may well be the same design flaw as the 6p. https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37117345 https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37117345 Despite the comments there about software it is most likely about heat and a component which is affected over time. I've had a 5x just go dead. Bought a Pixel, it died after a week (probably unrelated to this fault). The replacement is fine though and the phone is great overall and the camera is fantastic.

I really cannot understand why consumers persist in buying smartphones with non-removable batteries. All of these battery degradation problems are reduced to minor annoyances if you can buy a replacement battery for ~$35.
