Next Nexus smartphone can be made only by Google – Digital Look

According to a report in The Information, Google CEO Sundar Pichai and other senior executives of the company wish to have more control over the production of the Nexus line of smartphones. The company’s intention is that they are the “iPhones with Android” and give advantage to the operating system in the premium sector of the smartphone market.

The Nexus smartphones are traditionally developed by Google in partnership with other manufacturers such as LG, Lenovo and Huawei. The next line of devices, however, can be developed only by Google, similar to the tablet Pixel C.

This approach would allow the company to have more control over the final outcome of the devices. Because Android is also developed by Google, future Nexus devices could have the same synergy of operating phone-system that iPhones have with iOS.

Generating Revenue

Another company of concern has to do with your ability to insert your operating system on top of the line smartphone market. Currently, this segment is still relatively dominated by Apple, with few manufacturers – one of which is Samsung with its Galaxy line. – Achieving compete

In addition, the company’s need to develop Android in order that it suits the thousands of different devices makes it difficult for Google to focus its software to the top of the line segment. If he had full control over the Nexus devices, the company could develop more functionality specific to them, in order to attract more consumers.

Currently, iOS generates more ad revenue for Google than Android itself . The company is concerned that in the future, Apple can create ways to divert that Google’s revenue, which would remove a source of considerable income for the company.

Review – LG Nexus 5X – PCGuia

With the arrival of the new Nexus, Google decided to create two models from different manufacturers, LG is the manufacturer chosen for the new Nexus 5X (the 6P is made by Huawei). This model, which offers the best price / quality ratio, comes equipped with a touchscreen of 5.2 inches, capable of reproducing images with 1920 x 1080 pixels, equivalent to a 423 dots per inch density.

Using an all-plastic chassis (in reality are polycarbonates injected into the mold), this resembles the previous Nexus models produced by LG, with only two elements that stand out: a circle created to act as a fingerprint sensor and above this, the image sensor placed prominently. This, being gone, you can generate with some ease streaks on the lens. The sensor has a resolution of 12.3 MP and distinguished by wide aperture of f / 2.0, the use of an autofocus system effective infrared (LG technology) and the possibility of video capture in both 4K (the 30fps) and slow motion (the 120fps). The Nexus LG sins, however, the software used, which is the basics of Google, overly simple and accusing the lack of features and access to manual modes.

Internally this Nexus 5X uses the Qualcomm processor Snapdragon 808 eight-core 1.8GHz (same as LG G4), 2 GB of RAM and 16 or 32GB of storage space, which unfortunately can not be expanded, as there is no space for MicroSD cards.

the battery used is 2700 mAh and can not be replaced, but this is not a problem, since the self obtained in the tests was surprisingly high. This has the particularity to use the new connection USB Type C, which enables faster loading, but on the other hand requires that you have to walk with the transformer always with you when traveling; furthermore prevents the use of current laptop batteries.

In terms of performance, it is at the expected level, not only by the use of fast processor as the presence of the latest version of Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.

Comparison: Galaxy Note 5 vs Nexus 6 – Tudocelular.com

The Nexus 6 was the first unit of the line Nexus that was created by Google, in partnership with the Motorola for its manufacture. It is basically a mixture of Moto Maxx and Moto X second generation, with plenty of firepower to continue as a great device by the end of 2015 I decided to take it from the drawer and put side by side with the Galaxy Note 5, which it is the most powerful Samsung for the same year. Which is the best?



design

At this point the two devices are very different, with the Galaxy Note 5 betting on metal on the sides and glass in the back with the same screen curvature of the Edge line of appliances. But the Nexus 6 also bet in metal on the sides, but put a fixed plastic on the back, which can be hard and firm, although not glass or metal. The footprint by far is more comfortable in Note 5, which is less than the Nexus 6. Seriously, the Nexus 6 is too large, passes far from acceptable to stay comfortable in the hand. To end the comfort, the Nexus 6 is too thin and slides easily, something that does not happen as easily in Note 5

Seller:. Galaxy Note 5, to have a more comfortable grip and be more beautiful without the exaggeration of the size of the Nexus 6.

Hardware

We have different generations of different processors in this comparison. The Nexus 6 comes equipped with a Snapdragon 805, four cores running at 2.7 GHz, accompanied by 3GB of RAM, Adreno 420 GPU and 32GB of internal memory, or 64 GB in a more expensive model. Already Note 5 uses the Exynos 7420 which runs eight cores, four of them at 1.5 GHz and another four at 2.1 GHz, accompanied by the same amount of RAM and internal storage memory, but with a GPU Mali-T760MP8 for graphics. In everyday life, opening some very popular apps, Facebook opened at the same time on both sides, a result that was repeated on Twitter and also on Instagram. Testing games, opened the Real Racing 3 on both devices, which opened and carried the first track on the Galaxy Note. 5 – at this point, the Note 5 opened well ahead, with a very big difference between the two phones

Winner: Galaxy Note 5, but with a narrow margin (won only in games, not apps)

Camera

The Motorola. He never puts the best sensors in their devices, at least until the end of 2015. the Nexus 6 is not ugly, but its 13-megapixel camera with f / 2.0 achieves good results for pictures in good light conditions and also to night shots. The problem is that the Note 5 comes with 3 extra megapixels, clearer lens (f / 1.9) and superior results in all scenarios, in addition to having more functions in the native app for camera, as manual controls for focus, white balance and ISO

Winner:.. Galaxy Note 5

Conclusion

The Galaxy Note 5 won all comparisons in this article, but the difference was only great on camera, since performance Nexus 6 apps opened almost simultaneously. It is not possible to assess the cost-effectiveness of the Nexus 6, as he was not, and will not be released in Brazil. The only clear advantage of Nexus 6 above Note 5 is that it first receive all updates of Android, even before than any other manufacturer that uses the mobile operating system from Google. The Note 5 shows the S Pen (see the review of this smartphone for more details on its functions) body with better finish, better camera and more extra features on Android, in addition to a battery with better autonomy. If you can buy both devices, there outside the Nexus 6 ends up costing (on average) half of what it costs Note 5.

At this point, where both are on the market, the Nexus 6 is winner and extras Note 5 are not worth half of what it costs the Nexus 6 alone. In Brazil, for lack of official sales of the Nexus 6, Galaxy Note 5 is the winner.
