Google is slated to unveil a pair of new Nexus devices at tomorrow morning’s event in San Francisco. The LG-made Nexus 5X and the Huawei-made Nexus 6P will be the two newest additions to the Nexus line, the former of which will be Google’s lower end, more affordable handset. Through a wide series of leaks and rumors we already have a pretty good idea as to what will be announced tomorrow, at least in terms of Nexus smartphones. But if you wanted a few more last minute details before the big announcement, have no fear. Someone managed to leak a product document giving us a few more missing details on the Nexus 5X.
The Nexus 5X will come with 2GB of LPDDR3 RAM
According to the leak, the Nexus 5X will feature a 2.0GHz hexa-core 64-bit Snapdragon 808 processor, backed by 2GB of LPDDR3 RAM. Thanks to a recent Amazon listing, we already knew the device would come with Qualcomm’s 808, though we weren’t exactly sure if the device would come with 2 or 3GB of RAM. We’re sure 2GB will be powerful enough to help the device perform most everyday tasks without a hitch, though we know some users will be a bit unhappy with Google’s decision to not include 3GB.

The 5X will also sport a 12.3MP rear-facing camera with an f/2.0 aperture, IR laser-assisted autofocus and a broad-spectrum CRI-90 dual flash. Google says the camera’s larger 1.55 μm pixels will be able to capture more light than the Nexus 5 and 6 cameras could, even in the dimmest conditions.
There are a few more specifications in the leak that we haven’t covered quite yet, which you can find attached below:
Along with the big list of specifications comes a product listing for the device, which looks like something you’d see on the Google Store. One of the images gives us a slightly better look at the 5X’s rear-mounted fingerprint scanner which will be able to unlock your phone and give you access to certain applications, such as Android Pay.
