LG Nexus 5 (2015) leak

Up until now, we have only heard about the Nexus 5 (2015) and seen it leak in some renders that were based on its factory schematics. Today though, we finally get to have our first live look at the handset.

The leaked image shows off the rear of the upcoming Nexus handset from LG, which sports a Halo fingerprint sensor, a protruding camera module, a dual-LED flash, and a LaserAF sensor.

Google is reportedly working on two Nexus handsets this year. One of them will be manufactured by LG and sport a 5.2-inch screen, while the second one will be made by Huawei and sport a 5.7-inch screen. They both are reported to feature a fingerprint scanner located on the rear and feature front-facing stereo speakers. Other specs of both devices, however, remain unknown for now.
