Lack of new info on Nexus devices

[Zendroid1]

This last week has been pretty quiet in terms of leaks and new info. I honestly thought Google would try to generate more buzz as the release nears. This lack of new info is making it hard to stay excited about the phone haha

I fully expected a pic of a Google employee texting on a new nexus to be leaked. Google seems to leak one of these every year.

Maybe they are taking some time off until the new iPhone hype dies down?

Google isn't going to say anything at all until the announcement, so the "buzz" from an official standpoint will start at the end of the month.

No, we have been getting new info. Check my thread: http://forums.androidcentral.com/ne...ly-see-op-rumors-leaks-compilation-5x-6p.html

I'd wait until it was actually official. I can't care enough until then.

Don't we pretty much know everything there is to know already?

Other than getting camera photo samples I can't think of anything else that we don't already know.

But yeah, we need camera samples pics. Pronto!

the most important thing for me is battery, and I've seen no definitive size.

and a lot of rumors have been inconsistent (memory, type of USB-C, MP, etc) and price

I thought all the most recent rumours and leaks were in agreement that it it's 2700mAh? Or are there alternative leaks that I'm not aware of?

Ah yes, I forgot about the 2GB vs 3GB rumours.

What do you mean by MP? Megapixels? All the leaks I've seen are in agreement that it's the Sony IMX278 sensor at F1.8 with OIS & laser focus.

Battery: AP was consistent about the 5X having a 2700 mAh battery. It's likely they're correct about the 3500 mAh for the 6P to.

Price: Well, AA was indeed correct about the Sept. 29 announcement, so their source is reliable. Kind of indirect consistency at work here.
Exclusive: LG Nexus 5X coming September 29 for around $400

I hope we get to see the "in the wild" shot soon. You know the one Google releases but denies releasing it where some guy in the Bay Area is holding it all proudly for all to see?

that's for the LG, haven't heard anything consistent about the Hauwei version

that battery rumor was back in may (Hauwei) and I haven't heard much recent rumors from reliable sources discuss battery. I'd be pleasantly shocked if it's 3600

 

[Ry]

Will these have USB-C with USB 2.x or USB 3.x?

 

[Cakefish]

Likely 3.0. If Gigaset can do it, so can Google (LG/Huawei).

 

[bunique4life05]

I don't think much more news can be said about the Nexus 5x. However the Nexus 6P leaks have not given me good idea of what device will be like. I really want the 6P but I hope I am not disappointed in when it is
announced.

 

[Ry]

OnePlus didn't do it.

 

[Cakefish]

OnePlus didn't do it.

Yeah but OnePlus is OnePlus.

 

[Kaido]

Google/LG have more resources and had a bit more time. OnePlus seems to have just rushed it out after Google and Apple made a big deal about it.

 

[Cakefish]

Exactly. The lack of NFC and that home button hardware fault, combined with the poor handling of the launch suggests that OnePlus still has yet to 'mature' as a OEM, so to speak. Third time lucky, hopefully. I do wish them well. Competition is good.

not to mention quick charge which for me sealed the deal ... yeah, definitely rooting for them though!
