Google recently launched its latest Nexus series of devices in San Francisco. Unlike previous editions, this year, Google launched two Nexus phones instead of one for focusing on consumers with different display size preferences.
Dubbed Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X, both the devices are expected to be launched in India three days before the anticipated launch of Apple's iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus.
Both the LG Nexus 5X and Huawei Nexus 6P will be available for purchase from October 13 onwards, Times of India reports. The report further mentioned the Nexus 5X is expected to be available for Rs 31,900, while the Huawei Nexus 6P will purportedly be available for Rs 39,990. Both the prices mentioned in the report are for the base models, hence devices with more storage capability will be available for little higher than the mentioned price.
On the other hand, Apple has announced the latest iPhones' India launch on October 13.
