Now that the rumoured launch date of Google Nexus 5 is almost here (1 November), a North American telecom company reportedly listed the upcoming LG phone on its website for pre-registration, revealing its key features.
Canadian network carrier, Wind Mobile on Monday opened the phone registration page on its Facebook site and also went on to disclose certain specifications of the Google Nexus 5.
The page showed an image of the LG smartphone with a tag-line reading - "Google Nexus 5. The smart, new phone made to capture the moments that matter".
The screen shot of Wind Mobile website taken by the technology website Mobile Syrup has revealed that the Google Nexus 5 will indeed sport a 4.95-inch full HD (1920x1080p) display with 445 ppi (pixels per inch). It is said to boast of Corning Gorilla Glass 3 screen shield as well.
The spec-list also confirmed that the LG's forthcoming phone will run on the new Android v4.4 Kit Kat OS out-of-the-box. Other features include 2.3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 series quad-core processor, 2GB RAM, 16GB/32GB storage, 8.0-megapixel main camera with OIS (Optical Image Stabilizations), and 1.3-megapixel snapper on the front. The connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth v4.0 and NFC (Android Beam).
The leaked specification is pretty similar to rumoured features which were doing the rounds earlier. The only detail that is now awaited is the official announcement from Google and LG, which most probably might happen by the weekend.
Just hours after the report went viral, Wind Mobile pulled down the page from the company website. Couple of weeks ago, Nexus 5 co-developer, Google too made a blunder by posting the phone's price. It reportedly revealed that the 16GB model would cost $349 (₹21,520).
Beside Nexus 5 and v4.4 Kit Kat OS unveiling, American search engine giant is also expected to unveil the Nexus 10 (2013 Edition) and Nexus 4 LTE smartphone model as well.
