Whilst the name may not be decided yet, Paul Obrien from Modaco is posting that he has had the rumour of a Nexus phone from LG confirmed by a source he trusts ‘101%’ not many details apart from some basic specs so far. He does make note that there ‘The device is based on the Optimus G but doesn’t look the same’, there will be no microSD card slot and the battery will be non-removeable -long press on power button to reboot from now on I guess.

Information on the device they have had confirmed so far :

  • Quad Core Snapdragon S4 processor
  • 2GB RAM
  • 1280×768 True-HD IPS screen
  • On screen soft keys
  • 8 Megapixel Camera
  • No microSD slot
  • 8GB and 16GB versions only (at least initially)
  • Non-removable battery
  • Wireless charging built in

The launch date is said to be mid-November, Paul expects more details to come in so it may be an idea to check out the source link. Bearing in mind that LG actually tend to make pretty nice hardware but have historically had some issues with their software, is anyone up for an LG Nexus?
