I found this earlier and the source is reliable, looks like we Moto Nexus coming!!! :

 

Read all about in the article below!!! :

 

Taylor Wimberly after having revealed valuable details regarding the Moto X, is back in action, launching new interesting rumors dedicated to the upcoming Nexus smartphone range.

 

Today Taylor via a post on Google+ announced that the next Nexus smartphone range will be manufactured by Motorola and LG as hitherto assumed.

 

Here are his words:

Motorola will release a Nexus smartphones in Q4 (that is not the Moto X).

What do you think? Better a Nexus 4 2013 by LG or Motorola?

Better unlock bootloaders

Google controls 100% of the software on Nexus devices. OEM has no choice but to unlock bootloaders.

The one thing that I kept thinking about as I came across this leaked announcement... is why would it be announced days to weeks before the Moto X and Droid Line(s) being launched.

 

The other thought I have of course is what is LG's role in all of this?

I can't read that damn jibber jabber language it's in.

Italian is not jibber, use Google translate and the article is easy to read.

Wonder how the build quality will be vs Motorola.

I imagine it will be an incredible Motorola build with an outstanding radio. What I would like to see from LG is some of their new multi-tasking capabilities like the ones shown on the G2. Still it is hard to know what LG's role will be, who knows maybe it would be to produce a low cost Nexus device for low budget consumers.

Of course Motorola would produce a high end device that Google would feel is worthy of Nexus standards.

Looks like details of LG's involvement are unveiled. Of course all of this is rumor until officially confirmed, I think it would immature to rule out the possibility of Motorola Nexus, considering that here all we have is a rendering of the LG Nexus. Here is the article pulled from

Before we refresh your memory with the pricing structure, let's talk about the rumored specs for this new Nexus handset by the Korean OEM. Using the LG G2 as a template, the LG built Nexus 5 will feature a 5.2 inch screen with resolution of 1080 x 1920, and a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 SoC powers the phone. 2GB of RAM will be on board and there will be two different variants, one with 16GB of native storage and the other with 32GB of native storage. A 13MP camera will be on back and a 3000mAh battery keeps the lights on.  

As you can see, LG had to make some changes in order to bring the phone down to a build cost that will allow it to be sold on the Google Play Store for just $299 off-contract. That is the same pricing for the

. But the manufacturer had to use the Snapdragon 600 instead of the Snapdragon 800 found on the LG G2. Additionally, we probably will see the volume and power buttons put back on one side of the handset by orders of Google. The latter doesn't like too many changes on the model that is supposed to be the gold standard for stock-Android fans and Android developers.

Despite the slight changes compared to the LG G2, those specs priced at $299 sound quite enticing, yes? But it looks like the question will be whether we see this Google Nexus 5 made by LG or one produced by Google's wholly owned subsidiary, Motorola. Which one would you prefer?

The phone won't be sold with the radios to work on a CDMA network all together.

Well here's hoping you're wrong and they actually make a CDMA version. Would like to be able to sport this as my next device.

Wow...if this is the case (esp with a 3300 may battery!)....I'm ALL in!

Rumours claimed that the Google Nexus 5 will include a 5-inch Full HD screen display; an eight-core processor clocked at 2.3GHz paired with 3GB of LPDDR3 RAM; 13MP rear camera; 3300mAh battery capacity and the latest Android OS. The handset is rumoured to be available in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB variants and will support 4G/LTE connectivity, which was missing in the Nexus 4.
