Google going with Nexus 5x and Nexus 6p as their next Pure Android flagships

Nexus smartphone users have spoken and they want variety. After last year's Nexus 6 proved to be a divisive device because of its large size (which urged many users to hold on to their Nexus 5 devices a bit longer), Google is offering some diversity in size as well as OEM partners. The Nexus 5x is going to be made by LG (who made the Nexus 5) and will bring the latest technology to a 5.2-inch smartphone that will satisfy Nexus 5 holdouts.

The Nexus 6p is a more interesting device. It isn't going to be made by former subsidiary Motorola but is coming from Chinese upstart Huawei. This one is bigger but sized at a more reasonable 5.7-inch form factor. What we're hearing is that these will be released on September 29 together with an all-new Chromecast and more information on Android 'M' a.k.a Marshmallow. There's no tablet news so far, so we don't know if there will be a follow up to the underrated Nexus 9 or the beloved Nexus 7 devices.
