Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “LG Nexus Rumors!”.
All right, so google has had a habit of every year, picking a top of the line manufacturer in the smartphone industry to work with them to help produce the once per year flagship nexus model for the latest version of android, and this month. Slash next month is the time frame for the next nexus to be released, so we’ve been sort of compiling the rumors about who will be making the next one? Would it be samsung? Would it be htc again perhaps asus or motorola or lg? Well, yeah, a ton of details are emerging that are suggesting that the next nexus will be made by lg in the form of a pure vanilla, android version of the lg optimus g. So a little bit about the optimus g, it’s a pretty good. Looking phone, i’m not gon na lie, it has some nice hardware on the outside. It’S a relatively clean, looking device, some pretty relatively square edges.
It has capacitive home back and multitasking buttons on the front, but of course those would disappear in favor of a larger screen, and if it’s a nexus, it should have those on-screen buttons like the previous nexus. Did people don’t really notice this, but lg has actually consistently put really good hardware in the devices it’s just kind of held back by their so-so software. People like touchwiz and people like sense, ui and motorola’s skin, but lg’s skin has been clunky and a little bit unintuitive for a while, not exactly the greatest skin out there. So that’s held back their devices so combining that excellent lg hardware, at least internally, with some amazing stock android, which is naturally great software – that should produce a pretty sweet nexus inside the new lg nexus is rumored to have the beast: the qualcomm snapdragon s4 pro, which Is pretty much hands down the best mobile chip out there right now and it also packs 2 gigabytes of ram a 4.7 inch 1280 by 768 ips display, which should be pretty bright in sunlight, an 8 megapixel camera and possibly maxing out at 16 or 32 gigs Of internal storage sealed battery, so no external sd card support, also nfc support is included and wireless charging out the box is on the spec list. This is on a lot of rumored spec lists, so this is sort of a back of the head thing for me, but it’s possible and on top of all this great hardware, the lg nexus would be running android 4.2, which is on the rumored spec list. Now android 4.1 is jelly bean, so 4.2 is key, lime pie.
Maybe, and what would they call? It would be the uh. It’S not the galaxy nexus 2, because galaxy is a samsung thing, but lg optimus g nexus sounds a little too much. Maybe lg optimus nexus or just just optimus nexus. That’S it there. It is right there boom patented, so curling all these ideas together and with a little bit of photoshop ability bam. That’S what it could look like, not bad huh, not bad at all, either way the rumors are pegging a late october announcement and a mid-november actual launch.
So we won’t have to wait that long to see all the stuff in action anyway. I’M excited to see the first snapdragon s4 pro phones in the first place, give a thumbs up on this video if you’re excited to see just whatever google has up their sleeves to release next, this doesn’t count out any of the rumors of multiple nexus devices. We already have i’ve done a video on my wish list for the next nexus. So if you want to check out that video bam there, it is, and that should be just clickable if you’re on youtube desktop.
That’S an annotation, it’s not on mobile. Yet i should rant about that either way, i’m excited for the next nexus and the future of android, and i hope you guys are too thanks for watching this video, and i will talk to you guys in the next one. You .
