Snapdragon 808 will be the processor of choice for the LG Nexus 5 2015

While we’ve got a pretty good idea of what the new Nexus smartphone coming from LG looks like, the specifications of the device are still hotly contested. The latest rumours courtesy of Weibo alleges that the Snapdragon 808 will be the processor of choice for the LG Nexus 5 2015, no real surprise considering that it was the same processor LG used in its own flagship, the LG G4. Some may balk at the idea that the processor isn’t the latest and greatest, but using a slightly older processor that can hold its own will likely keep costs down for the overall device – and we all know that’s what we want to hear.

That’s not all that today’s report uncovers – the LG Nexus 5 2015 will also have a 5.2-inch Quad HD display, 3GB RAM and a 13MP rear camera. The 3GB RAM is likely to worry some performance junkies, but it’s been proven before that even the Nexus 6 with only 3GB RAM can still stick it to the latest from Samsung with 4GB RAM when multitasking. Of course, all of this is unconfirmed, but we can definitely see these specs happening.
