Nexus 6 speculation

[Oohara]

Here is a render I don't think anyone has posted yet. Also, here is a video where someone used the render to compare it to other devices. The comparison seems a little off to me, though, because it looks just slightly bigger than the G3 while the earlier real photo of them side by side made the Moto look much larger.

The top bezel looks a lot bigger on this one, not quite as nice.

On a side note, what the hell is that blackberry at 2:06, Lol.

Is the n6 rumored to have capacitive buttons?

Oh wtf I missed the video completely. Man, the Nexus 6 doesn't look at all huge next to the Note 3 and iP6+ then! That is quite an amazing amount of screen real estate for that footprint. I think I better restrain myself from pouncing on the Note 4 at least for a while...

And yeah the Blackberry Passport lol.......I'd like to see someone try and put that tank in their pants pocket

Omg what is wrong with her arm!?!?

Screw the Note and the S Pen.. Guess I'll go with the Nexus and thumb.

I don't know, but it is looks horrifically painful.

 

[lighthouse_man]

Actually the arm looks photoshoped. You can see the troubling selection twice above her head. It's probably a stock image that they used and slapped that arm on.

Come on guys, having an over-flexible joint like that isn't uncommon at all especially with women. It's called hypermobility. It just looks extreme in that photo because of the angle.

Nexus 6 Shamu video thoughts by MKBHD

YouTube: video

I really like this video reviews. He seems to mimic the thoughts of almost everyone here.....5.9" is too big!

 

[mattopotamus]

well it showed up at the FCC. model number XT1254. I know the Droid Turbo is suppose to be the verizon version of the nexus 6, so this may be the turbo but is probably a good look at what the n6 will be.

I know this photo leaked a week ago, but the FCC filing is new.

Pardon my ignorance, though how much larger will a 6inch display be then a 5.5 or 5.7 one? How is a screen actually measured? Does it mean it will be .5 inches taller than a 5.5?

Thanks.

the leaked dimensions have it being shorter than the iphone6+ and only a little wider. So .5" larger in screen size with a smaller form factor.

The screen is measured using the length of the diagonal, just as it is in a laptop or TV screen.

TK Tech News says the FCC device is the Motorola Atrix 2014, which is the AT&T variant of the Droid Turbo.

This is such a shame. Ah well, I'll keep my N5 and wait for manufacturers to see sense and start making phone-sized phones again.

Better get used to it man, hopefully they stop at some point lol

The Droid Turbo manual just leaked.

The display is 5.2 inch Ultra HD. It sure would be nice if there was a Nexus based on that.

Is it possible that the extra .7" in screen size comes from the area where the capacitive buttons are?

No. That is the Droid Turbo, not the Moto S/Shamu. I just posted it because I thought it was relevant to the discussion. The Moto S will have a larger profile all the way around.

Her arm is bent just like iPhone! wtf

I was thinking the extra screen size would be dedicated to the buttons on the nexus 6. If hats the case the phone shouldn't be that bad as far as screen size and should be a killer when watching media.

The current Nexus has a 4.95" screen and that includes the onscreen buttons. The rumored Nexus X is a full inch larger. That's just a huge jump in size.

TK Tech News has a source who claims that there is going to be a Nexus version of the Droid Turbo. The source claims to have pictures and documentation to back up the claim.

So, maybe the 5.2" Nexus isn't dead yet.

What is the battery size for this Droid Turbo ? To power that QHD Display I hope it's at least 3,000mAH if not higher. Anything less, and I will pass.
