Google Nexus 5: What to Expect!

2013-10-07
hey what is up guys I'm Kay PhD here and earlier this year with the Google Play edition devices there's a little bit of worry that we might not see a new Nexus every year but this is 2013 and we know by now that just about everything new is going to leak before it's announced and this new Nexus is no exception so without any further ado this is everything we know about the next Nexus so first of all the rumor mill really got going when an Android 4.4 promo video from Google one up and had a one or two second clip in it of a Google employee holding an unannounced device that said Nexus on it so we all pretty much assume that that's the next Nexus right there he's got an early copy and essentially that's where a lot of our initial impressions of what it's going to look like came from since then though we've gotten way more leaks from FCC submissions and leaked service manuals and actual photos of the device itself that give us a much better idea of what to expect when the actual device is released so we basically already know what it's going to look like at this point so here is a pretty accurate render I would say of what to expect when the announcement finally rolls around when we see that Nexus 5 for the first time you can pretty much assume that that's what it's gonna look like has a larger display and the LED notification light on the front larger camera aperture on the back then that black finished similar to the current Nexus 7 it's a very simple clean pretty much understated device now I have the Nexus 4 here which is also in its day a very clean simple understated device because it's a nexus it has no front buttons on the front but on the back it at least had a little bit of shine a little bit of glitz or something to significantly distinguish it from other devices out there but from what we've seen of this new Nexus it looks actually be even more of a clean simple understated device now two things will this actually be called Nexus 5 and will this actually be called Android 4.4 KitKat well about the KitKat thing you can pretty much be guaranteed that yes it's going to be called KitKat some people still don't believe it but if you've read more into the Android 4.4 story you'll realize that the partnership with KitKat came essentially at like the last second it was a very last second for fun sort of deal so earlier League's versions of Android still show some key lime pie elements and some naming schemes from key lime pie and even a debug icon from key lime pie but they've probably going to change all these things to match up with the KitKat mantra as far as the Nexus 5 name goes it's kind of hard to say because on one hand they could say it's the Nexus 5 but then the next Nexus will be the Nexus 6 and then the Nexus 7 which is a new tablet so naturally based on that a lot of people said it's just gonna be called the Nexus 4 2013 or the new Nexus 4 that makes sense but honestly the only thing that's actually confirmed right now is the model number which is the LG G 820 and that confirms two things number one it will be made by LG again and number two it'll be a natural step up from the model number from the LG g2 which was the LG D 802 but for the purposes of this video and for the purpose of the rumors we're just gonna call it the Nexus 5 so if this new device is based on the LG g2 should we expect it to have high-end specs like the LG g2 that's a question that's interesting because well first of all the Nexus line started off as being known for high-end specs the Nexus 1 was the first device to have a 1 gigahertz processor which at the time was nuts but right now as of more recently the Nexus 4 comes out and goes with a more mid high end range spec sheet but a much more competitive price so we've actually gotten the leaked specs of the new Nexus and we can confirm just about everything here so it's gonna have a 5-inch 1080p display that's gonna have that Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor clocked at 2.3 gigahertz it'll have 2 gigabytes of RAM and an 8 megapixel back facing camera with optical image stabilization it will also have a seal of 2300 milliamp hour battery if you were looking for a removable battery or removable storage Nexus is not for you and we're also looking at connectivity on LTE bands in the United States and it'll all come in a package that's just eight point six millimeters thick these are all pretty high to mid to high specs I mean they're not note three future proof sort of specs on a phone but they're also pretty decent specs and I would expect to see a phone based off of the six to $700 LG g2 and the Google Play Store as competitive as Google can get I wouldn't be surprised to see a 16 or a 32 gigabyte version of the Nexus 5 sell for four and nine off contract in the Playstore as far as carriers in the United States since the Playstore tends to be a very United States centric thing I would expect all the major ones but don't cross your fingers for a verizon Nexus 5 just don't it's probably not gonna happen and even if it does happen again Verizon's likely going to find a way to screw it up like it does with all its other promising devices on its network so I'm actually already in the process of fully switching over to AT&T in order to just use AT&T as my main line right now either way all the information about Nexus 5 will be finally unveiled and released officially this month it's October along with the whole bunch of other awesome protect this month but all of the rumors will finally cease and the false things will be dispelled when the google event actually happens I have a feeling that's not going to be the biggest surprise at the event the more exciting things that we don't already know much about like the Asus Bilt Nexus 10 or maybe some Google glass or some Google Chrome news might be more exciting but either way follow me on Twitter for more of the Nexus 5 coverage as it unrolls and if we get more stuff I'll be sure to share it with you if we've to get more leaked stuff that we don't already know I'll be tweeting that out but either way that's been it thank you for watching and I will talk to you guys in the next video
