I think the original is real and the new image is fake.

More reading and looking around looks like you might be right:

The other tell-tell sign (IMO) is the new image still has that LG logo in the background.

Would an LG employee really be using a Nokia device?

That reddit thread is pretty good. So basically the G+ post was a fake and the photo is actually likely genuine?

If it was a new Lumia it would not say Nokia , And Nokia arnt making phones until next year when the contract comes up.

Keeping a beady eye on this. I fancy a new phone, 16 gig just isnt enough for me atm (nexus 5). Although, i'm not overly keen on this new one so far.

Usb c, guess i'd need to buy adaptors for my existing cables. S6 is looking more and more appealing now. See if i can hold off until this is official.

If it can shot video without it sounding like you're underwater that would be good

That looks better than expected and possibly a goer for me. Although still rather iPhone-esque IMO.

Probably the camera housing. It does look silly up there.

The Huawei one isn't the Nexus 5 2015 though. Good job as it looks HUGE!

I have looked far and wide but still don't really understand when this new Nexus 5 may be announced and/or for sale on Google play. Can anyone shed any light on this for stupid old me? :confused:

Azza · 24 Aug 2015 at 13:04

^ What is that?! :eek:

That Huawei bar along the top looks even worse than the white rendered version. Eek.

Previous releases have been October or November, so chances are you've got a little while to wait yet.

Bezels look too big. Overall design looks a bit pants too.

810 Confirmed.

810 would be disappointing, honestly rather take a S808 since it has way less issues.
