In line with our reports from earlier this week, the latest rumour about the yet-to-be-announced Nexus 5 says the much-anticipated smartphone is expected to be launched on October 30.

The new information comes by way of Android SaS, revealing the exact launch date. Previous rumours had already revealed the shipping details of the Nexus 5.

Additionally, the infamous phone tipster @evleaks has leaked an image revealing the Asus Nexus 10 tablet's product page, with not many details about the device. However, the tipster's tweet reads, "Getting closer".

With the Nexus 5 now rumoured to launch at the end of the month, the "Getting closer" tweet could indicate the Asus-manufactured Nexus 10 tablet will launch alongside the next Nexus smartphone.

The Nexus 10 tablet rumours comes amidst a volley of next-generation Nexus smartphone rumours which now has become one of the most anticipated devices of the year.

The rumoured Nexus 5 is expected to come with a 5-inch display (precisely 4.97-inch) with full-HD resolution, boasting of a 442ppi pixel density.
