Well it's official folks. The Nexus from Motorola and Google has finally been announced. There really isn't much too surprising with it other than the price.
As far as specs go, the Nexus 6 has a 5.96-inch Quad HD (2560 x 1440) display at 493 ppi, a 2.7 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 805 processor, Adreno 420 GPU, 32 or 64 GB of storage, a 13 MP rear camera with OIS and HDR+, 2 MP front-facing camera, dual front-facing stereo speakers, a 3,220 mAh battery, and Android 5.0 Lollipop. It also has Motorola's Turbo Charging technology, which means you can charge an additional 6 hours of battery life in just 15 minutes.
Now we get to the price and availability. Pre-orders will start late October for a starting price of $649, which we presume is the 32 GB version. You will have your choice of Midnight Blue or Cloud White for colors.
Google also went on to announce that all five major carriers will offer the phone as well. That means AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, and yup, you guessed it, Verizon Wireless.

not bad. i like this model.
At $649 and those aesthetics? Fuck the phone.
I am looking forward to Android Lollipop however(God, isn’t there a better ‘desert’ name that starts with an ‘L’ that coulda been used here?).
Where is everyone getting that price from? It’s not listed in either of your sources. Until Google gives us a price we should probably assume that price is off contract from a carrier.
The size is daunting and so is the price :(. I bought all my Nexus devices because of the value they represent as well as the raw android.
At $649 they can blow it out their ass. There’s phones that have things called features for half the price. The nexus 4 and 5 were a hit because of their price. Raw Android and immediate updates don’t justify a double price jump.
Hello One Plus One!
Actually I was expecting this price… and I agree with you, I’ll wait for the lollipop update for my oneplus one. This beast is even bigger than the iphone6 plus, it is f*cking insane!
