Google Nexus 6 price drops to £399

Back in April Google released a new Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update for all Nexus smartphones and tablets, aimed at squashing a few more bugs and improving the Android Lollipop experience.

The Nexus 6 has been given temporary price cuts through various channels before, but it is yet to be confirmed whether the latest reduction is time-limited.

It’s nearly certain that we will see the launch of two Nexus devices by the end of this year.

Are you one of the many potential buyers of the new Nexus 2015 smartphone? The Nexus 6’s popularity suffered in part from being so large a device.

The takeaway from this seemingly-permanent price drop is that Google understands the Nexus 6, for all its virtues, was likely overpriced, alienating fans of the “Nexus effect”, which offered a great smartphone at significant discount.

It would be matched with 3GB RAM and Snapdragon 810, with the option of having 64 and 128GB internal storage.

In the week since Android M went on my Nexus 9, I’ve seen a significant improvement in battery life.

As far as the Nexus 6 price is concerned, the device can be purchased for £399. However, Android M might be released earlier than previous versions.

A report by Geek Snack suggested that the next version of the Google Nexus is also ready to be unveiled, which will be called the Nexus 5 2015. As the Nexus 5 (2013) featured a 5-inch touchscreen, the development team might prefer maintaining similar size in its newer model.

Android Police specifically pointed out that the Nexus 4, Nexus 10 and Nexus 7 (2012) models will not be receiving Android M, but will continue receive security updates for a while longer.

On top of that, the handset might bundle a 16MP primary camera with optical image stabilization and a 5MP selfie camera with wide-angle lens up in front, wireless charging, fast charging and a new USB Type-C connector.

The Motorola-made handset comes in two models 32GB and 64GB
