I have no issues with the battery at that size (if this is true). The S6 has a smaller battery at 2500 and is a 2015 flagship. Granted it's battery life sucks but it's pushing a quad HD screen. This nexus with a 1080p screen, Marshmallow (with doze), very little crapware apps, and no touchwiz should blow away the S6 battery life.

I expect a device like this to easily get 4-5 hours SoT.

If that spec about the battery is true, it's on par with the M8. I thought that battery was fine for most people's needs.

Solid specs imo.

Sure, would have liked a larger battery, but if the screen being 1080p is true, then that's actually a little sigh of relief. the battery should be better than the S6 considering the S6 has a smaller batter on a higher-res screen. So if I get better battery than my current S6, then I'm happy.

Happy with the Snapdragon 808. Had no real issues when I used the LG G4. Very capable chipset. Here's hoping the camera is great.

On the list of slightly more mundane aspects we have storage - the phone will come in 16 and 32GB models only.

The internal storage is the only spec I'm bummed out about. I thought for sure we were going to get a 64 GB option given the gradual increase in storage from year after year.

Nexus 4: 8GB, 16GB
Nexus 5: 16GB, 32GB
Nexus 6: 32GB, 64GB

New Nexus 5: 16GB, 32GB
New Nexus 6: 32GB, 64GB

"Speaking of power, the LG-made Nexus will indeed have a type C USB port, but we don't know if it's just a reworked USB2.0 configuration or an actual USB3 device."

What? So it could just be a reworked USB2 and not the new USB3?!

If that's the specs Im Passing.. Not cutting edge enough for me..

I'll grab a cheap moto nexus 6 instead or keep my current n5

Look at the OnePlus 2. "USB C", but it's just the new cable/connector and no upgrade in speed/quickcharge.

So there is a chance this isn't going to be the new fast charging connector. I hope that's not true.

Thing with me is the charging. I think it's messed up in the port where my micro USB goes into for it to charge. Have to force the cord to stay and any other cords simply just don't connect anymore. I'm stuck with that. If I didn't have this problem, I would be easily staying with my Nexus 5 for now. I wonder if I can get this fixed.?!

It does have front stereo speakers, OIS, laser autofocus, fingerprint reader, USB Type-C, and wireless charging.

Those are all the innovations of the old and new. What else more did it need?

 

[AllenRulz]

Nexus 5 (2013)
Snapdragon 800, 2gb RAM, 2300mAh Battery.

Nexus 5 (2015)
Snapdragon 808, 3gb RAM, 2700mAh Battery.

Let's just say that's what it is for the new LG Nexus. Is that really a HUGE upgrade from my current Nexus 5? Point I made before awhile back is price and battery. I pray it's not like $500+ and was definitely hoping for a much bigger battery. I don't want to feel like I have to wait another year or pick up something else (which I don't want anything that isn't pure Google nexus)

I really want the snapdragon 820 but I guess I can just upgrade my current Nexus 5(2013) to Nexus 5(2015) and then get one in 2016 lol.

32gb is not acceptable in 2015 to be the largest capacity available. I hope the rumors are false, because otherwise I can't even consider it. I struggle to keep my 32gb Moto x from being full, and I'm not going through this again.

After seeing these specs I'm having trouble justifying it over the OP2

OP2:
3300mAh battery
SD810
1080p screen
64GB internal storage
4GB RAM
13mp Camera with OIS
Fingerprint Scanner
USB Type-C
Similar stock Google experience

What's the problem with it?

You must not know about all the overheating issues with this chip. 810 is a curse.

I do...

I also know it's been fixed with an update. It still remains a superior chip to the 808

Even if it is throttled down a bit to prevent overheating, the better GPU is more than enough incentive for me.

Yep, and everything is throttled. Your phone, PC, car, lightbulbs... all to ensure that they don't burn out too quickly.
