The Nexus 5 is finally official and will soon be ready for purchase following Google’s announcement of its new flagship phone. Here’s what we know about the phone, price, and release schedule.
Made in partnership with LG, the Nexus 5 has a 4.95-inch screen with 1080p HD resolution. There’s also a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, which has become a standard of the high-end Android phones released in the past few months. There’s also 2GB of RAM to ensure that the phone can keep pace with others. The Nexus 5 has a new lens that automatically adds HDR+ mode that snaps several images at multiple lights and then combines them to create the best shot. The 8-megapixel camera also has optical image stabilization.
Like all Nexus devices before it, the Nexus 5 is meant to serve as a showcase of stock Android software. The phone runs Android 4.4 KitKat, which as we alluded to earlier, has new features to fight fragmentation, support more sensors, and control TV sets. It also also supports increased NFC capabilities, new printing options over Wi-Fi, full-screen mode, and more.
