Here are the leaked specs for the new LG 'Nexus 5'

According to a new report, one of Google's upcoming Nexus phones will be built by LG, and we now have a spec sheet to go with it.
The device is rumored to have a 5.2-inch display at 1080p resolution, be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 and 3GB RAM, and will most likely be the "sub-flagship" Nexus phone built this year. Other rumors have pointed to Chinese OEM Huawei as the maker of the true Nexus flagship.

Qualcomm's 808 has two powerful A57 processing cores and four lower powered A53 cores and includes an Adreno 418 GPU, which is almost identical to the well-known Adreno 420 seen in last year's flagship devices.

Furthermore, the device is rumored to have a USB Type-C port, a 2700mAh battery and dual cameras 12.3MP/5MP.

Despite not including the crazy high-end specs we've come to expect from Nexus reference devices, the new LG Nexus will likely be priced to win.

"Not including crazy high end specs"??????..........this is simply run-O-the-mill

Crazy high end would be the following:
1. Any OS other than the bogged down, insecure P.O.S. that's Android (clearly my opinion) ANDROID IS CRAP, though Cyanogen is nicely crafted in favour of complete control to the consumer.
2. 6GB RAM minimum
3. 2.5GHz Quad
4. MINIMUM 5MP camera front facing
5. REMOVABLE and REPLACEABLE 3000mAH battery MINIMUM
6. Removable MicroSDxx
7. Dust-proof IPS 2K screen


Anything other than these just isn't "High-spec"...perhaps maybe "High-ish"

Are you so uptight and high strung that you missed the word despite? The author is acknowledging that the phone has modest specs.
