Google is reportedly preparing to launch its next Nexus handset on October 14th
The Google Nexus 5 has already been at the centre of a number of leaks.
Last month, a Google employee was caught using the phone in a video to promote the launch of Android KitKat.
That was shortly followed by an FCC filing that confirmed the existence of the Nexus 5. The filing also revealed that the handset will feature Qi wireless charging, LTE support, NFC and Bluetooth 4.0.
Previous reports have suggested that the phone will come with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor. While the FCC filing did not explicitly confirm that, it did strongly suggest that it will use that processor.
The documents also confirmed that the Nexus 5 will come with a 4.96-inch display and be 131.9mm long by 68.2mm wide. No depth was mentioned.
The phone is widely expected to be the first official outing of Android’s next version, KitKat.
It has been suspected for sometime that LG will be the company behind the next Nexus 5. Its LG G2 handset scored highly in reviews.
Though it is impossible to confirm, an October unveiling does make sense. It would be just over one year on from the launch of the Nexus 4.
Expect to see invitations go out during the first week of October if there is any truth behind the rumour.
