We recently showed you a screenshot of an unknown device and we told you that it's the prototype version of the next Nexus device. As Andy Rubin also confirmed that there will be a new Nexus device in future. We already know that it will be the first one to future Android 4.0 a.k.a Ice Cream Sandwich, but what else is under the hood. It looks like the next Nexus device, which will be known as Nexus 4G will feature some serious and mind blowing specs, that's what BGR is reporting. BGR is reporting that it will feature the next-generation dual-core 1.2 GHz or 1.5 GHz processor and it might be OMAP 4460 which is an ultra-low power Krait-based Snapdragon processor. It will feature a 720p HD screen and the display size is big, may be around 4.3 or 4.5-Inch and just like we saw in the prototype version, there will be no physical buttons under the screen anymore. The phone will feature 4G LTE Radio; 1GB of RAM and it will feature a 1 MP front-facing camera. It will come with a 5 Megapixel camera, and as you people may have seen that these days, high-end devices are coming with at least 8-Megapixel camera, but BGR is also saying that the megapixel sensor will bring the best and leading image quality and it will also give good result in low light.

The Nexus 4G will be the first device to run Android 4.0 and it will be out around Thanksgiving, but currently no information on who's picking this device in USA. It could be AT&T, T-Mobile or Sprint, or may be all of them, so let's wait for some final words. It's just a rumor, so take it as one. I am sure that Google new flagship smartphone will feature some good amazing specs.

Anyway, do you think these specs are satisfying?
