Recently, it has been reported that casings that Oppomart has been putting up on its end confirms and gives away what one of the two rumored versions of the Nexus 5 2015 will likely sport.

That was, of course, the LG version of the Nexus 5 2015 that shows off the fingerprint sensor and the bulgy camera at the back. The protective armor seems to be made for the ones looking at rugged casings as well as the front-facing dual speakers.

Speaking of the front, the latest word is that the front-facing camera seems to be pretty impressive as well. A Google employee apparently showed it off via Google Plus, blurring himself to protect his identity.

The front-facing camera will be 5-megapixel and expectedly be used for taking "selfies" and maybe doing some video conference calls done through applications like Skype.

Other than that, everything seems pretty much dependent on the rumors coming out left and right. As far as the LG Nexus 5 2015 version is concerned, the device will feature a 5.2-inch full HD OLED display and rely on a Snapdragon 620 processor. It will give potential owners a choice between 32 GB and 64 GB of internal storage and will be banking on a 2,700 mAh battery.

Although it remains to be confirmed, the LG Nexus 5 2015 could be coming with Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box. Other features include the fingerprint sensor and a USB Type-C port that can be found at the lower part of the phone.

Recall that word has it that there will be two versions of the Nexus 5 2015. The one mentioned above is the LG version. Huawei will reportedly come out with the other version, one that sports a bigger 5.7-inch and will reportedly be a higher-end device.

According to speculations, the LG Nexus 5 2015 could very well come out in October.
