5.5-inch HTC Nexus phone codenamed Marlin has its specs leaked

30 June, 2016
This leak follows the one from last week detailing the smaller upcoming Nexus device codenamed Sailfish.

Sort by:

Smaller version with dual sim. Smooth premium feel handset. Yes please.

    Sebstin, 30 Jun 2016Hope there will be a mini version of it with killer specs (... moreAgree, a 4.7-5" would be terrific with smooth glass to metal edge like to A9. That's still the best feel in hand handset.

        5.5" is too small as I already feel like my Nexus 6's display could be bigger.

          Oh no. I really hope they bring out a 5 - 5.2" version. I hate holding those large phones. I tried it twice, ended up selling them. Can't hold them properly, more chance of falling, especially during winter. Dumb decision from Google again if they do that.
          I still can't believe they came out with a 6" phone a few years ago lol and didn't produce a smaller one.

              AnonD-196068, 30 Jun 2016True but why choose the name of a competitors O\S for the ... moreMaybe it's because he went on holiday and saw one? I don't know. Coincidence or just giving a little bit of cross-OS respect. Sailfish OS has been picking up steam lately. Maybe Google are planning on buying the OS or even a dual boot? I highly doubt it's anything serious, just a name.

                              Sorry if I misunderstanding something but why would anyone code name a phone Sailfish, a Linux based alternative to Android, for a stock Android device? I should imagine Google would not be too impressed with HTC.

                                    So another G4/S7/HTC10/etc copy, with the same soc, same camera, same storage, same fingerpint, etc.

                                    I can't believe people are dense enough to buy into this.

                                      I hope its slim for that bigger battery!

                                        wow storage options... Obviously it will not have micro sd card, cuz no 64 gb option. It would have been perfect for me :( google is going in a wrong way. Also battery could be a little bit bigger.
