LG G4 Pro Is Best Pick To Become Google Nexus 2015 On Release Date: 4 Reasons Why

LG G4 Pro release on Oct. 1

If the rumors are correct that Google has scheduled the Nexus 2015 release date in September then it's only a matter of weeks before the device will finally reveal itself. But the problem is the details about the device remain uncertain - like who is the anointed maker.

From the names being floated around since the Nexus rumors have started swirling LG is emerging as among the most solid contender. The company has the Nexus pedigree and is no doubt fully able to deliver on the hardware requirements laid out by Google for its flagship.

LG making the next Nexus, according to reports, will essentially resurrect the Nexus 5 that firm had assembled in 2013. It is said that LG's fresh take on the vanilla Android flagship will produce a device that in numerous stories is known for now as the Nexus 5 2015. This same kit, reports said, will be reimagined from an upcoming handset that goes by the name LG G4 Pro.

And here are the reasons why this soon-to-arrive LG smartphone is the best Nexus 2015 candidate so far:

Premium Nexus phone long wanted

Popular and beloved the Google signature phone is, the previous models fell short of expectations - build- and specs-wise. Thought to be the best was the Nexus 6 last year but even that wasn't too impressive.

The LG G4 Pro could rewrite the Nexus history, that is if the reports are correct that with the G4 Pro its maker is rolling out a super premium phone that can slug it out to the best of them. Apple's iPhone 6S Plus and Samsung's Galaxy Note 5 easily come to mind as LG reportedly plans to unbox its second 5.8-inch flagship at around the same time the phablet kings will debut. That would between October and November.

Sustaining the revered Nexus tradition

Not only that LG will make the Nexus 2015 premium but the maker back in charge of the project seems to resonate with many in the Android crowd. It is hardly surprising as LG was responsible for two of the Nexus models best remembered by fans - the Nexus 4 and 5.

In fact, the LG Nexus 5 has achieved an iconic status that many are expecting and clamoring even that Google just tap LG to remake the device with expected component upgrades. For sure, Android fans wouldn't mind having a Nexus 5 2015 that is built around the high-specced LG G4 Pro.

Premium and powerful

Lastly, the Nexus 2015 patterned after the G4 Pro will not only be premium it surely is brimming with power. Firing up the device, according to reports, is Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 820, which is being touted as the ultimate beast of a processor. The 820 is reported to be the same chip that recently scored 85,000 in an AnTuTu benchmark testing.

The score is the highest recorded so far and the 820 is only expected to flex its full muscle potential as the chip is likely tapped on up to 4GB of RAM.

The speculated earliest release date for the LG G4 Pro is late September 2015, which points to two possibilities for the Google Nexus 2015. Either native Android phone will touchdown shortly after its LG sibling or the twins will rock the smartphone scene at the same time with Android M on board.
