Leaked: Google Nexus 5X, 6P’s to Launch in India by October
Google is expected to unveil the much-awaited Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P in India by the end of October to cash in on the festive season demand. The team answered nearly all questions regarding the new smartphones, the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P.
Hiroshi Lockheimer and David Burke, the spokesperson that talked to Reddit, discussed topics related to the security, encryption and designed of the new Nexus phones. Meanwhile, wireless charging adds z (thickness).
They started with handsets names, the “X” in Nexus5X represents the core of NeXus brand and the “P” in Nexus 6p means Premium.
What are your thoughts on the missing Qi charging technology on the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P?
About the design, they explained the new mobiles will have camera bumps rather than flat backs for two main reasons: they wanted to create a comfortable phone and they wanted it to have a battery that also lasts longer by supporting USB Type-C.
These phones come packed with a lot of features, but fans might be surprised and disappointed to learn that Google’s newest phones won’t come with wireless charging.
NOTE: Terms USB Type-C and USB-C are used interchangeably in this article – and will likely be used interchangeably in the future all over the web, as well. “So, ease of plugging in + fast charging + optimizing for thinness made us double down on Type-C instead of wireless!”
Google announced the launch of the flagship devices from its popular Nexus range in the U.S. yesterday. It was a challenge to have an attractive silhouette and a powerful camera in the same device, but the company managed to do it. The Nexus 6P contains a powerful 1.55 um pixel sensor, LED-flash, LDAF and NFC coils. Google has one here on the Google Store for $13.
