We’ve already heard that the next Nexus phone will be similar to the powerful LG Optimus G, but this might be the first time we’re getting a good look at it. A gallery of photos of an LG Android phone that looks like the Optimus G and runs stock Android has popped up on XDA Developers. Could this be the next Nexus?
As you can see in the LG phone’s About screen, it mentions the model number as ‘Full JellyBean on Mako’. What the heck does that mean? Android Central notes that previous Nexus devices’ internal names have carried a fish theme and Mako is a type of shark.
This mystery phone certainly looks a lot like the Optimus G, and if it really is the next Nexus, those gnarly rumoured specs running stock Android would make for a pretty awesome phone. How do you guys like it? [XDA Developers via Android Central]
