The upcoming HTC built Nexus devices, codenamed Sailfish and Marlin, have been leaked previously with their rumoured spec lists looking fairly decent, but as rumours there’s nothing certain till they’re announced. Overnight, Evan Blass, better know through his Twitter handle, @evleaks has leaked the build.prop from a ROM he says comes from a Sailfish device.
Evan asked the internet before sending out this leak what someone would do with a full ROM dump and then we next saw a tweet with the build.prop attached. The build.prop is found on all Android devices, and contains build information including properties and settings. The tweet with the image attached:

Now, if you don’t want to go through it, the build.prop refers to ‘board.platform=msm8996’ otherwise known as the Snapdragon 820 – which unfortunately rules out the phone using the recently released Snapdragon 821 upgrade that some Nexus fans have been hoping for.
Also mentioned is ‘frpro.sf.lcd_density=420’ which is just under the Pixel Density of 440 that the 1920×1080 @ 5″ that previous leaks have shown that Sailfish is expected to launch with, instead more aligning with a 5.24″ display at the FullHD resolution.
Now, if you want to have a look through the text without looking at the JPG, then here’s the OCR converted text:

We’ll see more on Sailfish and Marlin in the coming months when Google officially announces the phones alongside the official launch of Nougat.
