Verizon Nexus 6 coming March 12th with Android 5.1 and Advanced Calling / VoLTE support baked in
Despite early rumors pegging today as the launch of the Nexus 6 on Verizon, the phone still hasn’t become available. But, if you read our post yesterday, this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise. After stores just recently began receiving promo materials (scheduled to go up on March 11th), the launch date was pushed back to March 12th.
So what about that Feb 26th launch date? Well, if you needed any further proof that it’s what Verizon originally had in mind for the release date, they seem have auto-posted a Nexus 6 demo video onto their YouTube page. We’re not sure how long it’ll be up, but hopefully this will tide you over until the phone actually launches in a few more weeks.
When the Nexus 6 does finally launch on Verizon, our sources tell us it will arrive with Android 5.1 which will support “Enhanced 4G LTE Mode” (Advanced Calling / VoLTE) in the device’s “Cellular network” settings. Maybe this is why the phone was delayed so many months after GSM models.
