Google has unveiled two new smartphones – the Nexus 6P and the Nexus 5X – that are among the most advanced smartphones to date and the first to feature the latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system.
LG and Google have joined forces to create the Nexus 5X while Huawei partnered to produce the Nexus 6P.
These smartphones are the first to feature the latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system and also include the new USB-C connector.
The USB-C plug is reversible so there’s no more guessing which side is the right side up.
It also provides faster charging that Google claims can charge twice as fast as an iPhone 6 Plus.
In fact, with the Nexus 6P, just ten minutes of charge can provide enough power for seven hours of use.
Both devices have a 12.3-megepixel camera that can shoot 4K video and slow motion along with a 5-megapixel selfie camera.
On the security side, both products also have the new Nexus Imprint fingerprint reader on the rear panel to provide fast access to the device and the content onboard.
