Google has taken the wraps off the Nexus 6, a six-inch smartphone (phablet) that is essentially an enlargedMoto X. It runs Android 5.0, which is now officially called Lollipop. It will be available to pre-order from October 29, and will appear in stores/on your doorstep in the first week ofNovember. Pricing starts at $650 off-contract — or about twice what the Nexus 5 cost.Google says the Nexus 6 — which is made by Motorola —has a
*Quad HD (2560×1440) display
*dual front-facing speakers
*13-megapixel rear camera
* Turbo Charger tech (get six hours of use from a 15-minute charge).
*Snapdragon 805 SoCclocked at 2.7GHz, 32 or 64GB of storage,
*a large 3,220 mAh battery. Dimensions-wise
*the Nexus 6 is large: 160 mm long, 83 mm long, and 10 mm thick.
*It weighs 184 grams(6.49 ounces). It is significantly larger than both the LG G3 or Galaxy Note 4.Curiously
*despite no mention of it in the official Google blog post, the Nexus 6 also comes with Qi wireless charging built-in
*802.11ac 2×2 WiFi is provided by a Broadcom chip. There’s 3GB of RAM. The device supports a lot of cellular bands (LTE,GSM, etc.) but we’ll have more on that laterin a separate story.Sadly, it seems there’s no smaller version of the Nexus 6 — it seems you’ll have to accept a phablet form factor, or simply go home empty handed.
