Nexus smartphones are always something to look for, like in the past year, when Google was also expected to release two smartphones this year. After the Mobile World Congress, rumors about the Nexus smartphones were on the rise; one of the most notable rumors was that “LG is not going to continue making Nexus smartphones,” which was confirmed by the Korean company representative. He further stated that LG needs to focus on its flagships of the LG G5 series.
Last week, a rumor stated that HTC might be manufacturing one of the two Nexus smartphones released this year. Although it’s not confirmed yet, it looks possible.
5 Expected features of upcoming Nexus Phones
Let’s discuss features we would love to see on the upcoming Nexus phones. The features below are expected based on general public opinion and will most likely be introduced in the Nexus family.
Metal Unibody Design
Nexus smartphones have become the definition of the Android operating system, so iOS and iPhones are now the main competitors of Nexus smartphones in the international market. For the layman as well as power users, Nexus smartphones need to come up with something innovative to stand alongside their main competitors.
Both the next iteration of the iPhone and the Nexus phone are expected to be released in the last quarter of this year; giving Nexus the metal unibody design can be a stand-out point for Nexus.
Android N
The new Nexus smartphones are expected to come with a new operating system. What will the new operating system bring with it? It’s not much known, but it will definitely be better in looks and performance, and it’s something to look out for.
External Memory Slot
Samsung didn’t have an external memory slot in the Galaxy S6. However, the upcoming Samsung smartphone, Galaxy S7, has one. HTC is also said to include the external memory slot in its upcoming flagship, HTC One M10.
Wireless Charging
One of the most notable things that was missing from the Nexus 6P and Nexus 5x was Wireless Charging. It was present in the Nexus 6 and Nexus 5, and since wireless charging is becoming a common feature of this era’s smartphones, we can expect it to be one of the features of upcoming Nexus phones.
Android VR Support
Google has a number of engineers working on an Android OS specially designed for virtual reality devices. You might have seen the Samsung VR handset; we are looking forward to something like that. According to some rumors, the Nexus phone will have built-in support for virtual reality. Some advanced features of VR are already hard-coded into the LG G5.
The features of the upcoming Nexus phones are as follows; you can write to us in the comments about the possible features mentioned above.
