Over the weekend a new set of real-life Nexus pictures hit the internet, and the device looks… pretty much like what we were expecting. The slow drip of Nexus leaks continues at Android Police, which had its source send over a set of heavily cropped pictures. The device looks almost exactly like the renders the site created back in July.
There’s no branding in the pictures at all, but Android Police is still maintaining that a “G” logo will be on the final device to the exclusion of a “Nexus” logo. We’re calling this a “Nexus device” but maybe it would be more accurate to start calling it a “Google Phone.”
The devices are being built by HTC, so of course they come with HTC’s trademark humongous top and bottom bezels. The device is supposed to be a custom design by Google, but we’re starting to think the outside is heavily based on the HTC A9. This would explain the bottom bezel—it’s that big because it used to house a fingerprint scanner.
