Usually, there will be a new Google Nexus smartphone if there is going to be an update to the Android OS. It is not yet known what the new number will be, if it will be a new Nexus 9, Nexus 7 or Nexus 6, but most people suspect that it will be a Nexus 5 2015.
It seems that the new device could come out with Android M. Android M, which is the latest version of Android, was released at the Google I/O Developers Conference in 2015. It is expected that the Android M will come out in the third quarter.
The next-gen Nexus 5 looks like a slim Nexus 7 tablet in terms of design and form factor.
According to PC Advisor, the new Nexus smartphone is going to be another Nexus 5, made by Chinese mobile manufacturer Huawei. It means that the tech giant Google is going back to its mid-range price business model, featuring high-end specifications.
Being made by a Chinese mobile manufacturer, the Nexus 5 made by Huawei will be the first dual-SIM Nexus smart phone. Whether or not this would be the Nexus 5, Nexus 5S, or Nexus 5 2nd Gen is anyone's guess. Google has reused names before with the Nexus 7.
The Nexus 4 was launched back in 2012 and was the first to use Jelly Bean Android operating system. The Nexus 5 was launched in 2013 and was the first to use KitKat. The Nexus 6 was launched in fall of 2014 and was the first to run Lollipop. The new Nexus device will be the first smartphone to run Android M.
According to a new report, the Huawei device will have a 5.7-inch display and a Snapdragon 810 CPU. It is expected that the Google Nexus 5 2015 will be released in October or November. The new Nexus handset is expected to come with an affordable price tag. According to a GeekSnack report, the upcoming device may be priced under $500.
