Nexus 6 2015 Specs, Rumors & Release Date: Details of 5.7-Inch Nexus Device from Huawei Leaked

New details about the upcoming Nexus device that Huawei is making for Google have leaked online.

As mentioned in the various leaks, the handset being developed by the tech firm will sport high-end features.

It has already been previously reported that Google's next-generation Nexus devices will be coming from two different companies. The Nexus 6, as mentioned earlier, will be made by Huawei while the second variant, dubbed as the Nexus 5 2015, will come from South Korean tech giant LG.

According to a new leak by Twitter tipster Onleaks, Huawei's device will come with a 5.7-inch screen. Based on rumors, it appears this will be the big Nexus variant since LG's handset will feature a 5.2-inch display, NDTV reported.

Aside from this, the source also mentioned that the Huawei Nexus smartphone will have a USB Type-C port and speakers on its front side. Given that the device will have a massive display, the Huawei Nexus will also have a bigger body than LG's with dimensions of 159.4x78.3x6.6mm. The Nexus 5 2015 on the other hand is expected to come with measurements of 146.9x72.9x8.8mm, PC Advisor has learned.

Aside from these general specs, various sources also reported the Huawei will equip its Nexus 6 with high-end features such as a fingerprint scanner. However, unlike current devices that feature an integrated biometric-based reader on their home buttons or on the front side, the security scanner of the Nexus 6 will be located on its rear casing.

In addition, the device is expected to have Force Touch technology support. As explained in other reports, this feature was first unveiled by Apple through the Apple Watch. It provides users with a variety of control options by detecting the levels of pressure applied by their fingers on a device's screen.

It is not yet confirmed if these features will also be spotted on the LG Nexus 5 2015.

In terms of its processor, the Nexus 6 from Huawei will reportedly come with either a Snapdragon 810 or Snapdragon 820 processor from Qualcomm. LG's Nexus 5 2015, on the other said, might feature a Snapdragon 620 chipset.

Currently, there are no official release dates yet for the two Nexus devices from Huawei and LG. However, many sources believe these new models will debut sometime during the fourth quarter of this year.

However, since Google, Huawei and LG have not yet released their own statements regarding the devices, the reported details about their specs are still based on rumors and speculations.
