Today was the day that many were hoping that Google, at last desvelase mystery and presented officially the new Nexus 5 . Yet the day is not over and, perhaps, the Mountain View end up giving us the surprise (especially when you consider that Apple has already released invitations to the launch event of the new iPad). While the official presentation arrives, rumors continue filtering range of smartphones on Google and it seems the price begins to close: the Nexus 5 cost $ 399 in 16GB version and $ 449 in the 32 GB .

information obviously is not official and therefore we have a rumor (even that comment that the source of information is “very close to Google”). Anyway, the price that has leaked is very interesting because, when compared to the Nexus 4 , is a bit higher, though, we never break the pattern of prices medium with which always have been linked devices Nexus family.

And what should be the price difference? If we consider that the Nexus 4 was launched at a price of $ 299 for the 16GB version and $ 349 for the 32GB version, obviously, the Nexus 5 would be more expensive but it is also important to note that, for example, the terminal support lacked LTE.

In fact, according to recent rumors, Google may be preparing a surprise regarding smartphones Nexus Range catalog and maintain in addition to Nexus Nexus 4 May. If all that is said is true, Google could renew the Nexus range 4 to add LTE connectivity and keep your selling price.

Put another way, in response to recent rumors, Google would launch the following:

    • Nexus 5 16 GB and 32 GB $ 399 to $ 449
    • ** Nexus LTE version * + 4 16 GB and 32 GB $ 299 to $ 349

    information for now, it is still a rumor and therefore have to take it all with caution before launching the rooftops. Still, the news, if met, is very interesting because it draws a portfolio of devices in which we would find a “pseudo-midrange” with the Nexus 4 LTE and a “high” with the Nexus 5 where the difference Price, honestly, it would not be very large, and users have plenty to choose from.

    Anyway, the LTE version of the Nexus 4 is something quite unique. Snapdragon S4 Pro processor joining, supports LTE connection but Google never officially activated, hence the upgrade to Android KitKat could eliminate this restriction and not only LTE version of the Nexus 4 but also apply to devices that have been sold at this time.
