Stefan, 18 September, 2015

Google sent out invites for an Android Marshmallow themed event in San Francisco on September 29. The occasion will all but certainly mark the debut Android 6.0, as well as new Google hardware.

We are likely to see a duo of new Nexus smartphones made by LG and Huawei. The devices are expected to debut as Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P respectively.

The LG-made Nexus 5X has already leaked on a number of occasions. Its rumored specs include Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 SoC, 2GB of RAM, 5.2” 1080p display, 12.3MP main camera, and a fingerprint sensor.

Nexus 6P on the other hand, is rumored to pack Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chipset, 3GB of RAM, and 5.7” QHD display. The Handset will be Huawei’s first Nexus device.

An updated Chromecast is also expected to make an appearance at the event. An image of the device leaked out earlier today.
