LG’S Third Nexus Phone Makes Its Mark In India

LG has officially unveiled the LG Nexus 5X today, and also its third Nexus device in association with Google. The Nexus 5X will feature Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box, Google’s latest Android operating system.

LG Nexus 5X has a 5.2-inch 423ppi Full HD IPS display with advanced In-Cell Touch technology. It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 Processor coupled with 2GB RAM. And with its fast Type-C USB port, a 10-minute charge will provide enough power for almost four hours of battery life.

LG Nexus 5X sports a 12.3MP rear camera and a 5MP front facing camera. Both the 1.55µm sensor on the rear camera and 1.4µm above the display absorb more light than any of the previous Nexus devices. The smartphone is also capable of capturing 4K and slow-motion videos, making this phone the most advanced multimedia Nexus device to date. 
Nexus 5X is more secure than ever and simpler to use with Nexus Imprint, a fingerprint sensor conveniently located on the back. 

On the occasion of the launch, Mr Kim Ki-Wan, Managing Director, LG India, said, "The partnership between LG and Google goes way back to the time when we launched our first Nexus device together, LG Nexus 4 followed by the LG Nexus 5. Today, as we announce the third Nexus smartphone from LG, the Nexus 5X, along with Google, we can say with pride that we complement each other’s strengths and the Nexus 5X will reflect the mutual trust and respect the two companies have for each other."
