Succeeding the Nexus 4 and the first generation Nexus 5 with its plastic framework bodies and mediocre cameras, LG's Nexus 5 (2015), also dubbed the Nexus 5X, will be launching with Android 6.0 Marshmallow on board.

With a 5.2-inch 1080 display, a hexa-core Snapdragon 808 chipset and an Adreno 418 GPU, it will be supported by 3GB of RAM and 16GB and 32GB internal storage options. The LG Nexus 5 (2015) will sport a 12.3MP rear camera with a 5MP front snapper, and feature a USB Type C port, as well as a 2,700mAh battery.

Based on leaked renders showing the back portion of the handset, the LG Nexus 5 will come with a circle-shaped fingerprint scanner below a slightly protruding main camera set in a black-and-white two-tone color combination on a build slimmer than its predecessor's.

The Huawei Nexus 6 on the other hand is said to feature a 5.7-inch QHD display over a Snapdragon 810 SoC and 3GB of RAM.

Sporting a heavy-duty 21MP rear camera with a large lens, dual-LED flash, and laser autofocus, the smartphone will be packed with Android 6.0 Marshmallow when it arrives in the market, and power up via a 3,500mAh battery.

Based on leaked images, the handset reveals a plain front offset by a metallic and multi-layered rear panel.

Both devices are expected to feature Android Pay and the new Google Wallet when they launch near the end of the month.
