While, there's no word from Google about the release date, specs or price of the highly anticipated Nexus 2016 flagships codenamed HTC "Marlin" and HTC "Sailfish," new reports suggest the launch is likely to happen sometime this month. According to popular leakster Evan Blass, Google's Android 7.0 Nougat will get an August release. It is expected that the upcoming Nexus 2016 smartphones will also get announced alongside the latest OS.
Last month, the HTC Nexus 2016 "Marlin" M1 smartphone was spotted on GeekBench benchmarking site. Now, this time it's HTC Nexus 2016 "Sailfish" S1 smartphone which has featured on GFXBench listing. As per the listing, the smartphone will feature a 5-inch screen with a 1080p display resolution, Qualcomm's current-generation Snapdragon 820 chipset coupled with Adreno 530 graphics processing unit (GPU), 4GB RAM, and 32 GB of built-in storage capacity.
Recently, Android Police reported that Google is planning to debut a brand-new launcher for its upcoming Nexus 2016 smartphones Marlin and Sailfish. The report claims that there will no longer be an app launcher button on the upcoming Nexus handsets as it's usually seen on the bottom part of the screen. Users will have two options to access the app drawer. They can either slide up anywhere in the "frosted" zone, including on the small arrow above the zone or can simply tap the arrow to instantly reveal the drawer.
In addition, a new report from BGR suggests that the upcoming Google Nexus 2016 smartphones will come with a host of new features including a Settings menu, a "Night Light" feature and a "Quick screen check" feature which will enable users to check their phones notifications without waking it up. We advise our readers to take the information with a grain of salt as nothing yet about Google Nexus 2016 release date, specs and price has been announced officially.
