Internet giant Google's newly-launched Nexus smartphones will start selling in India between October 10-14, two days before the latest iPhones go on sale in the country.
According to sources, the new Nexus smartphones -- Huawei Nexus 6P and LG Nexus 5X -- priced in the US at $499 (Rs32,450) and $379 (Rs24,650) will be launched on October 13.
Google, which launched the phones on September 29 in San Francisco, said that the new devices would come with Type-C USB, fingerprint sensor, large 1.55 micron pixels camera sensor and will run the latest Android operating system Marshmallow.
The Nexus 6P, which has a 5.7 inch screen running at 1,440 pixels resolution along with 518 pixels per inch support, comes with a 12.3 megapixel rear camera with a f/2.0 aperture and laser auto-focus.
The LG Nexus 5X, on the other hand, comes with a 64-bit Snapdragon 808 processor with a 2 GB RAM unit. The 5X has a 1,080 pixels display protected by Gorilla Glass 3 and a new 12 megapixel rear camera with 4K resolution video support. It will draw power from a 2,700 mAH battery.
