It was previously believed that LG Nexus 5 (2015) smartphone will be based on LG's flagship G4 handset, but newest rumours deny that. The upcoming Nexus smartphone will actually be designed from the ground up by LG and Google, continuing the trend Motorola started.

Up until Nexus 6, all previous Nexus smartphones were based on popular Android flagship device. The new Nexus 5 (2015) might not launch under that name, but nothing is confirmed yet. We also have no idea when Google plans to announce it, but all previous Nexus smartphone were launched alongside new Android OS, so if real it could arrive in fall with Android M.
