14 DAY TRIAL // The new Nexus smartphones are back in the news. While most of the internal specifications of the phones have made their way online via various leaks, there are still a few details that need some settling.
And hopefully, the two new tweets coming out of @OnLeaks will clarify them. So far we’ve been telling you that the Huawei Nexus will be the higher-end affair, but as it appears at the moment, the LG-made Nexus 5 (2015) will be pretty premium as well.
According to the current information, the Huawei Nexus is expected to arrive with a metal body and a 5.7-inch display, something that we already knew. However, the leakster is providing us with the measurements of the phone, which are 159.4 x 78.3 x 6.6/8.5 mm. Furthermore, we’re told the device will boast front-facing speakers, a fingerprint sensor, and will take advantage of a USB Type-C.
As for the LG Nexus 5 (2015), the handset is expected to be a little chunkier, with dimensions situated along these lines: 146.9 x 72.9 x 8/9.8mm. The phone might make a debut with a 5.2-inch display, metal body, and the same front-facing speakers, fingerprint sensor on the back, and USB Type-C.
Both Nexus models poised to boast a metal build this year
While there’s no mention of processors and resolution here, previous leaks would have us believe the Nexus 5 would boast a full HD display with 1080p (1920 x 1080 pixel resolution), and a yet-to-be-announced Snapdragon 620 (MSM8976) processor under the hood in combination with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage.
The device should also make use of a 13MP main snapper with IMX278 RGBW sensor, a 6-element f/1.8 aperture lens, OIS, laser autofocus and dual-tone LED flash.
The Huawei Nexus, on the other hand, will offer QHD (2560 x 1440 pixels) resolution and the services of the Snapdragon 810 processor (although the Snapdragon 820 was rumored at some point). The phone should also take advantage of the services of a 21MP camera with IMX230 sensor plus Rezence/WiPower wireless charging.
So, are you excited to see the new Nexus phones make an appearance?
