Google may still be trying to keep it a secret until Android L (Lollipop?) is done and dusted, but the Motorola-made Nexus 6 is an open book already.
I remember it as it if happened yesterday. The first Motorola Shamu-centric rumor. At the time, no one really knew how to react. On one hand, it was certainly pleasing to hear further confirmation on the continuation of the Nexus program.
Also, we couldn’t be happier vis-à-vis Google’s choice for its new hardware partner, following LG’s retirement. Then again, 5.9 inches felt a little extreme for a product lineup that generally receives only one refresh every 12 months..
Unless this year, we’re looking at two. The 5.9 incher and, say, a more pocketable 5, 5.2 incher. Only as time passed, plausible intel on the so-called Nexus 6 or Nexus X piled up, and nothing, literally nothing of substance emerged in regards to a smaller version.
Then, 9To5Google went on record with the most comprehensive Shamu-related report, leaving the speculation door open to a… Nexus 5 Plus? Nexus 6 mini? But now Android Police crushes our every hope, also adding precious inside information to the N6 pile.
According to AP, since “absolutely nothing credible about a smaller Nexus phone this year” came to their attention, the odds of such a handheld being in the pipeline are a million to one.
Meanwhile, the Nexus 6 gets a 9 out of 10 confidence level, likely sporting a mouth-watering Quad HD display with 496 ppi and gigantic “3,200+” mAh battery. So yeah, a capacity over the 3,200 mark is a possibility.
A near certainty is the “Shamu” will support Motorola’s innovative new turbo charger accessory, thus being capable of lasting around 8 hours of typical use after a minimal 15-minute charging session. And things just keep getting better and better once you add the 13 MP OIS rear camera in the equation, the front-facing stereo speakers and 2014 Moto X-style aluminum frame.
Intriguingly, there’s no mention of the on-board processor or RAM this time around, but hopefully, that doesn’t mean Google is having second thoughts about going for the top-shelf Snapdragon 805 and 3 GB. Oh, and just for the record, both images used to illustrate the Nexus 6 are mere product renders based on gossip and assumptions, not actual live pics starring the device.
