The much-anticipated successor to the Nexus 4 has made another
appearance on the Internet. The latest leaked image comes courtesy
Spigen, a case-maker that has posted an image of the expected Nexus 5,
revealing the rear panel.
Spigen has
posted the image to its Google+ feed and notes, "Where will you be when
the revolution begins?" accompanied by the #nexus5, #android and #google
hashtags that suggests that case-maker wants more people to talk about
the upcoming Nexus smartphone.
The leaked image shows the rear
camera with large sensor accompanied by an LED flash. The rear panel's
design appears to be identical to that of the Nexus 7 (2013) tablet. The
image has a tagline which said, "Nexus 5 Revolution be ready."
Unfortunately, the case-maker has not revealed any details about the
availability of the alleged Nexus 5.
Earlier this month, the
rumoured Nexus 5's battery, pricing and storage details were leaked. The report claimed that the 16GB Nexus 5 model will supposedly be
priced at $299 (Rs. 18,500 approximately), while the 32GB Nexus 5 might
be expected to be priced at $399 (Rs. 24,500 approximately).
Additionally
the report claimed that the next Nexus smartphone would come in two
different battery sizes for 16GB and 32GB storage models. As per the
report, the 16GB is said to include a 2300mAh battery while the 32GB
model is expected to pack a 3000mAh battery.
We had already
reported that the rumoured Nexus 5 will come with 16GB and 32GB storage
onboard, as the company has shifted to larger inbuilt storage on the
device.
Rumoured specifications of the Nexus 5 include a 4.95-inch full-HD (1080p) IPS LCD display,
Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor clocked at 2.3GHz, 2GB of
RAM, 8-megapixel rear camera with OIS and a 1.3-megapixel front-facing
camera. The alleged Nexus 4 successor has also been expected to include a
host of sensors like ambient light, proximity, pressure as well as
accelerometer, compass, notification LED and gyroscope.
Prior to
this, a report suggested the successor to the Nexus 4 would be unveiled later this month,
while it would start shipping in the last week of this month.
