After Huawei Nexus 2015 with 5.7-inch has been leaked in some live photos on the internet, now it seems to be LG Nexus 5’s turn. And thanks to the leak, we will also know more about about its specs.   

Recently, there is some information about LG Nexus 5 (2015 version) shown on Weibo. Accordingly, the next LG Nexus smartphone released this year will sport a 5.2-inch QHD (1440 x 2560) screen with 565 ppi. The size is obviously smaller than the Huawei Nexus, but not bad at all in terms of specification since 2K resolution is the top feature at the moment. Besides, Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 hexa-core 1.8GHz chip together with 3GB RAM will be the main processor powering the whole phone. Until here, we have a feeling that the LG Nexus 5 (2015) specs are quite similar to the flagship LG G4 launched in the H1 of 2015.

Moreover, the rear camera of LG Nexus 5 is capable of 13MP, using Sony IMX 278 sensor without OIS support. On the front surface, there is a selfie-centric snapper with 5 megapixels (1944 x 2592) with f/2.0 and a few days ago, a Google staff used it to take a selfie. Interesting?

It is also said that the LG Nexus 5 selfie cam will be able to capture beautiful pictures even in the low light condition. Furthermore, it is said that the smartphone will be equipped with LG’s unique “Laser Auto Focus”function, which LG promises will help capture images “literally” faster than a blink of an eye. If so, that’s awesome!

On the other hand, it is also noted that other LG Nexus 5 (2015) specs will include a fingerprint sensor and the newest Android Marshmallow OS. 

About the LG Nexus 5 (2015) launch, the anticipated date is in October, yet again, either Google or LG has not confirmed anything. So, we should wait a bit more. Hopefully, September will see more interesting details about 2 Nexus devices of Google.

Well, with such great specs, how much do you think that LG Nexus 5 (2015) price in Malaysia will be?
