More details are now known about the Huawei-made Nexus 6.

Over the last few months, rumors have been running rampant that Google is currently planning to release two different smartphones for 2015.

One of the phones is said to be the Nexus 5 to be made by LG, while the second is said to be the Nexus 6, which is rumored to be coming from Huawei.

Now, more details are being leaked about the latter device.

The leak regarding the Nexus 6 came from long-time tipster @Onleaks or Steve Hemmerstoffer of Nowhereelse.fr. It is worth noting that the details coming from @Onleaks are not official and that the sources this Twitter user is relying on have remained anonymous; so there's a chance that the information itself may not turn out to be correct, according to Gotta Be Mobile.

With that being said, these are the supposed specs of the Nexus 6 from Huawei.

The Nexus 6 will reportedly have an octa-core Snapdragon 810 or perhaps even an 820 processor. That will then be bundled together with 4 GB of RAM.

In terms of internal storage, the Nexus 6 will reportedly be able to have either 32 or 64 GB available to users, depending on which model they would prefer to get. It will also have a 5.7-inch quad-HD display.

For its cameras, the Nexus 6 will come with a 21-megapixel rear shooter, but the leak did not detail what the quality of the camera up front would be.

The Nexus 6 will also supposedly have a built-in fingerprint sensor that will be similar to the one found on Huawei's very own Mate series, according to iDigital Times Australia.

Thanks to the leak, it is also believed that the Nexus 6 be running on the Android M OS or what will likely be otherwise known as either version 5.2 or 6.0, depending on which way Google chooses to go.

Even with the latest leak, Google has still kept silent on the issue of the new smartphones, meaning nothing is official just yet.
