Frequently Asked Questions

What were the key Nexus smartphones released between 2013 and 2015?

Based on our coverage, the key models were the LG-made Google Nexus 5 (released November 2013), the Motorola Nexus 6 (leaked in 2014), and the two 2015 models: the LG Nexus 5X and the Huawei Nexus 6P (both announced September 29, 2015).

Did Google ever plan to replace the Nexus line with Android Silver?

No. According to a 2014 report citing Dave Burke, head of Android engineering and the Nexus program, Google was still invested in the Nexus program. He stated that software needs hardware to operate, and the next Android version would debut on a new Nexus device, clarifying that Android Silver would not replace Nexus.

What was a major advantage of the Nexus 6P over the previous Nexus 6?

The Huawei Nexus 6P featured significant upgrades over the Motorola Nexus 6, including a thinner and lighter all-metal body, a higher pixel density screen (518 ppi), a newer processor, a USB Type-C port, the Nexus Imprint fingerprint sensor, and a larger battery. While its rear camera had a lower megapixel count (12MP vs 13MP), it used larger pixels for potentially better image quality.
