Authentic Leaks Compilation for the 5X and 6P

Re: Rumors & Leaks Dump for the Nexus 2015 Smartphones

Exclusive: LG Nexus 5X coming September 29 for around $400

tl;dr
Nexus 5 2015 will cost $50 more than its previous version, so starting at 400 most likely.
Both Nexus will be available for order on announcement day, the 29th.
White/black/light blue colors for Nexus 5 w/ plastic back.
Hmmm... Nexus 5 launched at £299 here in UK for 16GB model and £349 for the 32GB model (which was the one I went for). So, we can expect £349 for the 16GB and £399 for the 32GB this time around I suppose. Considering that the LG G4, Samsung Galaxy S6 and Moto X Style are all cheaper than that, I can't help but be a little disappointed.

Are those the official names of the phones, the 5X and 6Y? I don't get how that makes sense?

According to an exclusive source of Android Authority, Nexus 5X might be the official name for the new Nexus 5. They are pretty confident about it.

I just thought 6Y would be fitting if that were the case, lol.

5 comes before 6
X comes before Y
5, 6
X, Y

Oh, and then there's Alphabet Inc...

I kinda got the impression from the article that they were more confident about the price and release date then they were the name. love your rationale for the 6Y ... I spent 15 minutes looking around online for some article mentioning it, lol

5X and 6Y....Nexus 5X and Nexus 6Y? The X and Y add to name just not seem like Google's fun and create edesign language. They maybe trying reinvent the Nexus line have more utilitarian image. I could simply just be reading into it.
 
Re: Rumors & Leaks Compilation for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6Y

Nexus 6y sounds like a joke, as in why would any they make such a device and why would anyone by it.

Nexus 6x must be the name and next year nexus 6x2, it sounds strong, sexy and hints at the future possibility of the legendary 7 " nexus tablone, the nexus 7x.

Nexus must choose a naming dynamic that is consistent, logical, appealing, and predictable.

Not like the madness that is htc.

They had the one x, then one xl, then just htc one, then htc one m8, retroactively naming the previous model the one m7, one m9, and now htc o2.

Yet even that is better than the terrible naming system of Nokia.

The fact that no nexus phone can ever be called nexus 7 was an existential crisis that I wasn't sure Google could surmount. Yet with nexus 6x they have jumped over their pit of doom with class and grace and ensured a bright future for the nexus phablet.

they can call it the pink bunny for all I care, but I do wonder why almost every OEM is so boring with their names.

I like the direction Moto went with Pure, Style, Play and Force.
 
Re: Rumors & Leaks Compilation for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6


Great! 5.5 was too minor of a difference from 5.2 and now the screen-to-body ratio will be noticeably better.

Nexus 6 at 5.5 inches ~ 66.8% (between Oppo R7 and 6 Plus).
Nexus 5x ~ 69.6%
Nexus 6 at 5.7 inches ~ 71.7% (same as Galaxy S6 Edge).

While the screensize might have been for a prototype, I think the $649, they converted it wrongly to $645, price tag for the 32GB model will remain.

$649 for 32GB and $699 for 64GB
 
Re: Rumors & Leaks Compilation for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6

$649 for 32 gb is a tough sell, considering the Moto X Pure is $449 for that, with an SD slot and likely better camera. But the Nexus will have the fastest updates, wireless charging, fingerprint scanner, etc.
 
Re: Rumors & Leaks Compilation for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6

5.7 would be more acceptable if it is over 600.
 
Re: Rumors & Leaks Compilation for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6

649 for 32 when pure is 399 and nexus 6 is on sale at amazon for 350, I bought the nexus 6 for 649 when it came out, Will not pay that again for a smaller screen. We are being duped into thinking its better because its newer. Kinda like the Isheeple.
 
Re: Rumors & Leaks Compilation for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6

Agreed. Anyone who's waiting for the new Nexus 6 should just pick up the old 32 or 64GB Nexus 6 form Amazon instead. There doesn't seem to be significant improvement. Ask yourself, how important are the fingerprint sensor and type-c? Other than those two features, it's basically the same as the old Nexus 6.

You can save nearly $300 and still get 32GB more storage.

Or, just get the new Moto X.

Re: Rumors & Leaks Compilation for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6

Re: Rumors & Leaks Compilation for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6

Here is the pricing per a leak in my head:

N5 16gb - $399
N5 32gb - $449

N6 32gb - $549
N6 64gb - $599
