Google Nexus fans, who didn't buy Nexus 6 just for its 6-inch screen, have a good reason to be happy. The upcoming Nexus 5 (2015) is expected to have a display with 1440 x 2560 pixels, which means it will have a better display than the Nexus 6. According to some reports, it is expected to have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, Android 6.0 Marshmallow, 3 GB RAM, 13 MP Sony IMX278 sensor with an OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) camera, 2 MP secondary snapper, and non-removable 2,300 mAh battery under the hoods.

A report by Gizmo China has claimed that the device will come with 64 GB internal memory, 4 GB RAM, 13 MP main camera, 4 MP front snapper, 3,180 mAh battery, NFC, Bluetooth 4.2 and USB Type-C connector. It is also expected to have a fingerprint sensor and Android Pay.

Interestingly, the render of Nexus 5 (2015) leaked by Steve Hammerstoffer aka @onleaks shows a large protruding camera with an LED flash and a fingerprint scanner on the back. 

However, nothing is confirmed as we are yet to hear from Google officially.

Prospective buyers of Nexus 5 (2015) can expect it to come with an affordable price. While the 32GB version of Nexus 6 was priced at $649, the 64GB version costs $699. The pricing had invited criticism from consumers. Now, Geeksnack has claimed that the new device will be priced under $500.

According to Korean website Post (via GforGames), Google is expected to release Nexus 5 (2015) on 29 September.
