If recent reports are to be believed, the Nexus 6 smartphone might be a
marked departure from Google's usual Nexus line-up, as the Mountain View
giant is said to be preparing the next smartphone on the lines of LG's
yet-to-be-announced G3.
The latest information about the upcoming Nexus smartphone comes courtesy Gizmodo, who cites an insider that claims that Google's rumoured Nexus 6 smartphone is being manufactured by LG, which has been the OEM partner for Nexus smartphones for two consecutive years (Nexus 4 and Nexus 5) now.
Further, the insider notes that this year's Nexus smartphone will be a 'lightweight' version of LG's next flagship smartphone, believed to be dubbed G3. However, the insider does not reveal any details about the alleged Nexus 6.
According to the report, LG might debut the rumoured G3 in June. It's worth pointing out that, Sundar Pichai, Senior Vice President at Google in charge of Android, Chrome and Google Apps recently indicated that Nexus fans would only see the alleged Nexus 6 in the second half of this year. Pichai was quoted saying, "I can assure you it will not be released in the first half of the year."
The Google Nexus 5, made by LG, is Google's most recent Nexus device, and was released in November 2013 with Android 4.4 KitKat OS.
Notably, the alleged LG G3 flagship has been making rounds on the Internet and has been rumoured to sport a 1440x2560 pixels QHD (Quad HD) display, however, there is no word on screen size yet.
Further, the alleged LG G3 is said to pack an octa-core chipset, believed to be codenamed LG Odin, which is being developed by the company itself. In addition, the rumoured LG G3 is expected to pack a 16-megapixel rear camera.
An earlier report suggested that Google has been working on a smartwatch of its own, expected to be revealed within the first half of this year. Popular phone tipster @evleaks had claimed that Google's rumoured smartwatch has been manufactured by LG and it would debut at Google's I/O event in June.
