Major news sources across the globe have been reporting that the announcement Google’s latest smartphone is imminent, and with Google’s I/O meeting just around the corner, an unveiling is very likely.
According to IB Times, LG are set to collaborate with Google once again, just as with the Google Nexus 4.
In fact, James Fisher, indicates that LG may well be developing more Google devices. The LG Senior Vice President said, “Through our collaboration with Google, we launched the LG Nexus 4 smartphone.

Google Nexus 5 – The Grey Areas
The Google Nexus 5 is set to be announced at Google’s 2013 I/O conference in Moscone West, San Francisco, which will commence between May 15th-17th. But before then, a few grey areas remain over the highly anticipated device.
For example, there have been no news on the processor being used for the Nexus 5. Qualcomm, the company behind the highly anticipated Snapdragon 800 processor, have confirmed that the first handset to use the Snapdragon 800 would be released in the summer, which is too far off to be the Google Nexus 5.
Additionally, Google’s latest software Android is set to be rolled out, Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie. Yet again, no news or rumours have revealed Lime Pie’s capabilities, and many of the Google Nexus 5 features, as well as those of the Google Nexus 7.7, could revolve around it’s brand new software.
