As we can see that the case features three holes, one for the camera, another for flash light and an odd hole below the camera which is predicted for the fingerprint sensor. Previously, there was a source said that fingerprint sensor will be integrated with Motorola logo.
Then, the area for flash light seems larger than the usual size, so maybe this will be area for dual flash together with the laser port alike the LG G4. It can be assumed that the information of Nexus 5 (2015) will be produced by LG brand can be true.
Expectedly, Nexus 5 will be one of the first smartphone running Android OS M. Moreover, the Nexus 5 (2015) is predicted to have the USB Type-C also.

New Huawei Honor out with 4GB RAM and unique POP-UP selfie cam!
Huawei is planning for a debut of their new Honor smartphone in the next months. And this time, they decide to make it stand out among Honor members as well as other devices on the market. So, what can make it that special? How about a POP-UP SELFIE CAMERA?
Yes, that is exactly what Huawei is going to equip the new smartphone with. Recently, it has been spotted on TENAA certification with the model name Huawei ATH-AL00. Even though it has a normal look like many other handsets, the front-facing shooter is so well “strange” that draws all the attention and no one will care about other things. What a wise strategy!
New Huawei Honor spotted on TENAA
Looking at the pictures on TENAA, we can see that there is no camera on the front surface. However, that does not mean you are no longer able to take selfies with your friends. Huawei has created a new way for you to do that. All you have to do is to press a button on one side of the handset, and then a camera will be popped up immediately.
Moreover, coming along with the device is a dual LED flash. In general, we assume that the new Huawei machine will focus much on the selfie function. Yet, how many megapixels is it capable of? We really hope it would be high, say, like 8MP or 13MP. If so, HUAWEI ATH-AL00 will become one of the first candidates to be mentioned in the list of best selfie cams of smartphones in 2015.
Also, with the new design of the secondary snapper, HUAWEI ATH-AL00 is able to sport a slimmer border at the top. Meanwhile, the bottom seems a bit thicker and contains no home button. We wonder if the manufacturer intends to build a fingerprint scanner on the phone or not, but if yes, where can it be? Some people say that the sensor will be included in the cam eject button. Sounds interesting?
Well, apart from the above images, TENAA does not give us more info about the HUAWEI ATH-AL00 specs. The only thing we can try to predict here is that it can have a dual SIM (as there are two slots on the phone’s side) and according to some rumors it will probably boast a powerful Kirin processor and 4GB RAM.
To conclude, we feel pretty interested in the Huawei ATH-AL00 pop-up selfife camera. Hopefully other HUAWEI ATH-AL00 specs will also be impressive, making it a new flagship of the Huawei Honor series.
