With Samsung's Galaxy S 4 revealed and Google I/O just a few months away, the rumor mill has shifted its focus to what the next Nexus device might bring. An anonymous source has leaked what he claims is a photo of a Nexus prototype to Android and Me.
According to the leak, Google plans to release its next Nexus handset in October of this year, about a year after LG's Nexus 4 hit the scene. The manufacturer of the next Nexus handset is not known, but the source claims that Google is evaluating a number of prototypes from various manufacturers, including LG, which has apparently labeled its Nexus project "Megalodon." The handset is purported to have a 5.2-inch OLED display with 1080p resolution, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 800 processor, 3GB of RAM, and up to 64GB of internal storage, not to mention a 16-megapixel rear-facing camera. Some rumors also point to the camera lens being manufactured by Nikon.
The specifications list essentially maps out what we'd hope to see in smartphones coming out later this year. And as with any rumor, it should be taken with several grains of salt.
