Nexus 5 is the upcoming successor to Google's super-hit smartphone Nexus 4. It is being developed in cooperation with Korean tech giant LG which also co-manufactured the Nexus 4 for Google. Although, the smartphone has not been announced officially by the two manufacturers, a lot of specs have been leaked on the internet and give a glimpse of what, potentially, could be actual Nexus 5 features.

The smartphone is expected to come pre-loaded with Android OS v4.4 (KitKat). Some images leaked suggest an improved Android UI and brand new wallpaper as well. It is rumored that the phone will come with a True HD IPS touchscreen that's 5.0-inch in size and offers a pixel density of 441 for breathtaking clarity. It is not clear how thin the device will be, but considering previous Nexus releases, we can expect a sleek and stylish handset with a trademark glossy glass back cover.

Nexus 5 is also rumored to be equipped with a Quad-core processor having a clock rate of 2.3GHz. It will be housed on the latest Snapdragon 800 SoC. The chip will provide a 3GB built-in RAM while an Adreno 330 GPU is expected to power the phone's graphics acceleration. Other specs likely to be offered on the Nexus 5 are Wi-Fi, 4G support, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0, Nano SIM card slot, USB Slim Port, HTML5 browser, 8MP primary HD camera, front cam, GPS and a built-in non-removable battery.
