Rumour: LG Nexus 5 2015 won’t be based off the LG G4

The rumoured LG Nexus 5 2015 is getting its fair share of news lately, and the latest one deals with the expected design of the device. While previous Nexus devices made by LG have been wholly or loosely based on equivalent LG devices – LG Optimus G became the LG Nexus 4, the LG G2 became the LG Nexus 5 – it’s expected that the Nexus 5 2015 is going to be built from the ground up as a new device and won’t be based on this year’s LG G4 at all.

This is the same strategy that Google and Motorola took with the Nexus 6, with mixed success – the device itself was breathtaking, but its premium price tag and size was just a little too much for some to swallow. Only time will tell whether this all-new Nexus 5 2015 (name is only indicative at this point) is going to be like the Nexus 6 or more of a budget offering that people are clearly a fan of.
